Somewhere Someone's Summer Sucks

Hey, BEDA day two. Sounds like a party, right? Yup. 


Okay, so if you may have noticed, yesterday my book count went up by one! I bet your'e wondering what it is, right? Yeah you are. Well, on Sunday night, I finished "The Last Little Blue Envelope" (sequel to "The 13 Little Blue Envelopes") and I have to say, it was amazing. I think that this one was a lot better than the first, just because of the character development and how GInny has come since she started this. As a whole, the two books are so good, and if you can, please read them because you will not be disappointed.


Something else that is exciting is that I cleaned/re-aranged my room this Sunday. I really like changing things up in my room. Things tend to get boring after a while, so I like to move things around to see how they feel. Well, this year, I really like how it turned out. All I really did was put my bed where my desk was and my desk where my bed was, but it made a huge difference. It's just refreshing to see things like this. I think that that's something that I am going to like about growing up and going to college, staying in different places and experiencing new things. I stick to my comfort zone too much and that's something that I really need to fix. I like to challenge myself, even if I don't feel the same way at the time. 


Anyways, I have a surprise for you tomorrow. Jen isn't the only one who has been writing, and I think that I might share some of that with you guys later.  That's about it for today, happy BEDA day two!

Don't Blink

Okay, so this is awkward. This is the first day in a while that I don't have anything to talk about. So what am I going to talk about you ask? Arctic Vampires. Yup. Let's do this. 


Arctic vampires, well vampire, just one, not many. He lives in the arctic. Yup, he does. 


He sat there alone, and in the cold, thinking about his life. How would it have been different if he turned left? That one fateful day, driving down the road to find someone to eat. He came to an intersection and was going to turn left, but there was a sign that said: "Arctic Adventures --->" He had always liked the cold, so he turned right and ended up here. Everyone else died. Some because it was too cold, and the rest because he ate them. He could handle the cold, it didn't bother him at all, it was the loneliness that got him. He needed a friend, someone to talk to, someone who knew he still existed. But he didn't. He was alone, immortal, and stranded there for the rest of eternity. 


He got up and walked out of his igloo, everything was white, there was no sign of civilization in sight. He took one look at his home, turned left and started walking. 


I definitely did not steal that from my creative writing homework if that is what you are implying! Gosh get off me! Well, anyway, I hope you enjoyed it. I am off to bed because I am tired.

Luke Gave Me a Heart

So being the procrastinating Nerdfighter that I am, I was watching Luke's VEDA video today. And on his Facebook, he said that he would respond to everyone who commented, if they voted for him in the YouTube Next Up contest. So I did. I said something along the lines of "I've been voting for you everyday, I hope you guys win! :D" 
Now, my YouTube username is CheeryTadpole. The reason for this is because when I made the account for something, I didn't really care about it. The thingy then suggested the username Cheery Tadpole for me to use. So I did and I got that username. I guess it isn't that masculine of a name because Luke then responded by saying: 
"Me too! Thanks for the votes and make sure to vote for my friends! <3"
Yup. Luke Conard gave me a heart. Life = Made. 


Also, there were elections today at school. That was fun. I just now realized, though, that that will be the last time I will ever vote in high school. *Sigh.*


In other news, I was reading more HP 4 today and I really love the Yule Ball scene in the book for many reasons, one including Dumby's reference to the Room of Requirement. Also, the way that they get food is pretty cool (they just say what they want off of the menu and it appears.) Oh, and it's funny how in the book they have sex in the bushes and in the movie they have sex in the car-things. But the thing is that I LOVE that scene in the movie. It is an amazing scene for many reasons that are about to be listed. 1) "I look like my Great Aunt Tessy. I smell like my Great Aunt Tessy." Classic. 2) When the champions and their dates are waiting outside and then Parvati (SP?) sees Hermione come down the stairs and says, "She looks beautiful," and then Harry is looking at Cho and says, "Yeah, she does." <3 3) How they immediately start dancing as they walk in and then Parvati is like "Harry, take my waist!" 4) The music during the first dance scene. I love it. 5) Ron's reaction to seeing Hermione with Victor: "Is that Hermione Granger with Victor Krum?" "No. Absolutely not." 6) The part when Hermione comes up to Ron and Harry. The use a lot of the same dialogue in the movie from the book, but it's more well put together. "You're fraternizing with the enemy!" "The enemy!? This competition is about international magical cooperation. To make friends!" 7) The part right at the end where Hermione is yelling at Ron. "Where have you been? Never mind! Off to bed, both of you! Ron you spoil everything!" 8) How there are those girls crying in the background. I think it makes the  atmosphere of a dance more realistic. 9) Neville. I think that it's one of his first happy moments. 
So ummm yeah, I like the Yule Ball.
