Ok so I thought I was done reading last week but apparently we still have to blog this week. so I'm going to talk about my "reading habits". I did change my habits for this, would you call it a project, project. I usually find a book I really like and go hardcore on everyone and read the whole thing in one sitting or maybe two, because I play the book out in my mind like a movie and who likes to see a movie in 15min segments every other day....NO ONE! So yeah I had to read like an hour every week or every other day and thats awkward for me, so that part sucked. But I still love to read, but on my own time, so it's ok Strusz you didn't ruin reading for me! I hope you can sleep better now knowing it's not your fault.

"I want a rider that's cool...on a mean machine, with Hell in his eyes..."-Grease 2
Thank God it's the weekend! Luther comes home...yea!To start off my weekend I read! Yes! And I was right, Bella started hanging out with Jacob in my reading this evening. She's still pretty down, but Jacob is a fun guy who really cares (;]) about his friend and will do anything to cheer her up. Also Bella starts getting this weird adreniline rush when she does "dangerous" things so her and Jacob are constructing motorcycles for themselves in their spare time. That's pretty BAMF if you ask me. I had a dream the other day that I won a motorcycle at a raffle. It was intense. Of course I gave it to Luther because motorcycles are BA and sexy. Whatever, it was just dream.

A Gay Game and More Blogging...What Else God!?!
So yeah i just got back from that crap girls BBall game...wow. so i must confess i'm blogging for what i'm about to read because i don't want to forget about blogging like i did last week. I'm getting into a deeper part because like i said last time she can't live her normal life with out Edward so as i recall from the last time i read this book i think she decides to start hanging out with her childhood friend Jacob because she now has no one else to go to.

I'm A Retard!
yeah so in that blog the other day i said Breaking Dawn - i meant New Moon. I realized I mess those two up alot....i don't know why. That's why I'm a retard. Well since I need to get my grade up i have to blog like every night this week...bummer. I read for an hour an Bella basically wants to kill herself if she's not with Edward. I know it's a rash decision but don't worry she's just being dramatic she doesn't REALLY want to kill herself(unless you count wnating to be a vampire...? maybe she DOES want to kill herself...)anyways I always feel bad reading this part because not in a freaky way but i get what she's feeling. Whn the person you truly love just leaves you, you feel helpless like no one understands or could even try to and no ones company makes you happy. I know. I've been there. And what's worse for Bella is she doesn't even know if she'll ever see him again and she has no idea why he left her...not knowing sucks. I've been there too. But all in good time you will see that it will all work out- just like it has for me!

Ahhh...Forgetfulness and Overdramatics...
So basically i forgot that yesterday, Monday, was indeed Monday. (Because of course we had no school) I usually blog on Sundays as you can tell but i forgot that it WAS Sunday so when Monday came i figured why bother bloging now so i asked Strusz what i'd have to do to get an A again in this class. How stupid is it that you can have an A+ in the class and forget to blog ONCE and then your grade drops to a B. Its depressing. Sooo...anyways here's what i would have blogged if i wasn't so forgetful. I got to the overly dramatic part of Breaking Dawn where Edward leaves her(tear,tear...) and then you turn the page and there are four pages that say all the months that pass. When i read that i was like "Oh come on! What! Geez !I can't take this!" that is almost literally my exact reaction. So yeah there are now going to be many many chapters read before we get to see the perfection of a male we call Edward Cullen. But it's ok ladies there is another man walking into Bella's life.....and he is HOTT!(no Strusz i'm not superficial because all i ever really write about is how hott and "amazing" the guys are in these books....i just like to point out some of their good qualities that will appeal to others...maybe not to you but to my other viewers)

Breaking Boredom...?
ok so i started reading Breaking Dawn but i just don't really care about reading it anymore so i might find something new to read because i'm so bored right now and i've already read this book, and other twilight fans will back me up on this- breaking dawn is the worst in the series soooo...yeah. And i'm sick of school in general. i think i'm just bored with my life right now and i need something new. Same boring stuff every week. Yeah so since i've been bored and boycotting my life right now i only read for an hour.

This Is Me Facing the Facts...
So according to two posts ago, Strusz apparently thinks i need to wake up and face the facts of the world and stuff so I did. This week I read a book called Face The Facts:The Facts of Life for Young People. It is basically a book to give to a tween who is growing up and knows nothing about the sexual body God gave us or how it works. Ha! the sad thing is I actually thought it was interesting. It was like when you go to read your Catechism and you find the answers to questions you have and you think "oh i did learn that, i knew that all along i just forgot." So here are some of the titles to the chapters, just to give you a feel of what it was like:
chpt.2 You Are Sexual
chpt.6 The Male Half of the Reproductive System
chpt.10 Here It Comes
chpt.15 Sex That Perverts
Hrs: 2 Book 3 completed! (162pp)
Re-cap: total hrs so far- 24 books completed- 3

Twilight Has Ended But the Dawn is Breaking...
AAAhhhh! wow this is a great book(not for strusz *cough*because he doesn't have a heart*cough*)but honestly how stupid was she at the end where else did she think he was going to take her..jeez..she's the one that needs to "wake up" as strusz puts it. oh and i always hoped he would have turned her into a vampire so they could live happy and in love forever but then he didn't and i was mad but then i realized oh hey there are three other books, eventually they will live together forever in their love(and damned souls)! ha whatever i'm pretty sure that's kinda wjhat these books are about anyways -choosing to live forever with someone you love or dying for something good...? i'm not 100% sure it could just be a fickle love story that has no real meaning except that love is pretty much AMAZING. come on strusz you're married you gotta agree with me on that!?

Boys...can't live with, CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT THEM!!!!!
The main reason people(girls) love this book is because of the great guys in them. We want someone to be devoted to us and make us feel like there is nothing else in the world that matters....and save us from drunk creepers on the street who might rape us...you know pull up in a shiny silver volvo and break away from the scene of the crime by drifting and spinning the car around. Then take us away to a secret meadow and ravish us with his stunningly chiseled features.Is that too much to ask for?

For The Benefit of Mr. Strusz
I took a teensie break from Twilight because they spring play is rolling around and I'm the student director so, I thought I should read the play straight through...I did. And well it's Shakespeare so basically it's a good story that could be shortened to about 10 pages if everyone just said what they meant, instead of listening to their own voice for about three minutes. -or you could shorten it to something like:
Beatrice- "i am a stubborn feminist who doesn't need a man! but if Benedick DOES like me..."
Hero-"I'm sweet and would do anything for the man i love, i wouldn't even yell at him if he accused me of being a whore!"
Benedick-"I am all that is man -no woman will tell me otherwise (unless it's Beatrice..she's fiesty) and you all will laugh at everything I say because I AM funny."
Claudio-"I am a tender hearted young man who is mesmerized with that fair lady's presence...I love her...but believe she would have sex with anyone so she will DIE!"
Leonato-"Ha! my name is Leonato I am a jolly fellow who goes along with everything!!"
Margret-"Hi I'm Margret, the skank."
Borashio-" I'm just a drunk, you can't blame me for it!"
Dogberry-"I AM a hero and i WILL save the day...again!"
Don Juan-"I am a jerk who loves to mess with everyone's lives!!muwaha!"
yeah that's the jist of the key roles in the play...but anyway it's Shakespeare like I said so it did take me about an hour for each act.

Twilight is here....
So i've already read the Twilight saga of course but i'm picky so it's hard to just pick up any random book on a shelf. I started it! and it's still as amazing as ever. The main character is Bella( it's written in her perspective) she is seventeen (best age ever?) shy, plain, and shockingly selfless; she's just decided to move to Washington with her dad (parents are divorced) because her mom's boyfriend is a minor league baseball player who moves around alot. So the plot is just getting started but most girls are pulled in because they think they can "relate" to her so they're like-"yes! i'm JUST like her! OMG! wow and SHE falls in love so there MUST be hope for ME too!!!!" I can't really see guys getting pulled in to this story but....maybe if they're really sensitive...and sweet...and romantic......you know....like....a really great guy.......then yes they would.
