A Small Thank You
I don't know who will read this. Maybe you'll be someone I know. Maybe you'll be someone I've never met. Maybe you'll be that person I passed by at the grocery store yesterday. I don't know. I just wanted you to know you are beautiful. Don't let anyone tell you different. Especially yourself. Don't let anyone make you question your value. You're important. You don't know how much it means to me to find out someone spent the time to read my posts. And for that I thank you. You are wonderful.

No True Train of Thought
Mood: goodish
Im currently watching Pride and Prejudice (yes you may swoon at the thought of Mr. Darcy.) I absolutely LOVE this movie. This is like my 500th time watching it. Okay maybe not 500th, but still. So I have Prom and Prejudice sitting on my chair just BEGGING to be read. I'm waiting to read it. I have a HUGE pile of books to read still. Mainly from the library, so those must be read first. Actually I have to pick up five more books today, and sadly return Pride and Prejudice. (You may boo.) This post has no true train of thought. It's just me talking randomly. Hope everyone is excited for the new year. :)

Resolutions and Playlists
Mood: Pumped
I decided today I'm going to FINISH a novel. That's my 2011 New Year's resolution. I know I always talk about how I have all these new ideas (which sometimes over take my entire brain.) This coming year I decided no matter what I'm going to finish this novel. It could be crap. It could be pure genius (most likely crap.) No matter what I want to finish a story. And I know exactly what story to write. I would say what it is about, but I don't wanna ruin it. Hopefully by this time next year I will at least start editing. That's the hope. Wish me luck.
BTW if anyone has some good pumping music I can add to my playlist that would be great.
So far I have:
*I Love Rock N Roll by Joan Jett
*It's My Life by Bon Jovi
*Remember the Name by Fort Minor
*Riot by Three Days Grace
*Not Afraid by Eminem
*In The End by Linkin Park
Please don't hate on my music taste. All of these songs get me pumped, so if you have any suggestions please comment.

Movie Review (Wild Child)
Mood: hyper
I'm currently listening to my step sister play the Phantom of the Opera. Kinda depressing though. Never mind she decided to wave a lighter in the air while playing. LMFAO! Anyways I'm gonna give my short review for the second movie I rented. The second movie was Wild Child.
I only watched it because of Alex Pettyfer. Mainly to see how well he acts (he's in the upcoming movie Beastly which I'm very excited for.) Sadly to say I did not like Wild Child that much. personally I think the boarding school idea is a tad played out. But that wasn't what bugged me. This story had SOOOOO much potential. I hate saying that since EVERYTHING has potential, but this movie especially. I felt if this was written as a novel it everything could have been MUCH more developed. First of all, all the relationships Poppy had were very sudden. I mean that as one minute she hated them the next she loved them. No CLEAR transition. I mean her tone of voice changed, but it was too sudden. No real actions impacting it. Also I wished there were more scenes with Alex Pettyfer in them. Just because. Thirdly, I felt a lot was missing. I saw the deleted scenes afterwords and a lot was clearer.
I did like it though, but I think I would have liked it better if it was a book. I did like certain things, but I only listed my major problems with the movie.
Also for some strange reason I REALLY want to watch the Covenant again. It was really good. It was a good lesson on STRONG paranormal stories. Mhmmmmm I might just watch it again. :D

Movie Guys
Mood: comme ci comme ca
I just watched The Covenant. It was okay. I really liked the plot, but I felt it was a little predictable. BUT I kinda want the sequel. If said sequel exists. I mean have you seen the guys in the movie :D I won't go girlie on you, BUT they are the kinda of guys I'd base my MC's love interest on. Yes they are THAT cute.
Nothing profound for today. I went to the library today. I got two movies (including The Covenant). I'm watching the second movie now. Not so great so far.

Short Review
Mood: happy!
HEY! Do you remember that shiny new idea I was telling you about yesterday??? Well.... IT WOULD NOT SHUT UP TODAY! All day thoughts of this new idea swirled around my head today whispering oh so sweet scenes for this new story. Wow I have an image of the old lady in Snow White with the apple. EAT ME! EAT ME!
The only time the whispers stopped is when I FINALLY picked up a book. Be warned I have not read a book since last Saturday. Normally I finish a book a day (on breaks) and a book a week (during school weeks). So not reading for a week is big. But, it keeps my brain quiet for two hours.
The book I read was Out for Blood by Alyxandra Harvey. I would post a long review, but I have to read Once a Witch by Carolyn MacCullough. Review cut short... I LOVED IT! I loved Alyxandra Harvey's other books, but this one was so good. Personally though I think one scene was just completely unnesasarey. I'm a big person on "how is this important to the plot/ charater development." I just couldn't see the importance in this one part. Also I felt the attraction was a little obvious. Not that it wasn't good. I loved the attraction (though I would have loved to see more of Quinn.) Also I read on one of the review for this book that the reader could see a possible book for one of the Drake brother's and a certain hunter. I found the two character's fairly early. I also thought the two characters would be good together. Wow. I sound like I'm typing gibberish. Anyways I'm going to reread Out for Blood real quick the Once a Witch.
