Allllrrriiighhttyy then! With the title out of the way, we can get on with the post! First off, I have a few books that I have read (or am in the middle of reading) that I would LOVE to share with you! You are welcome to let me know if you’ve read them, enjoyed them, or have another book recommendation!
- The Silent Patient…This book was a LITTLE slow at first, but I was interested so I kept reading. It. Was. Worth. It. By the time I finished reading it, I wanted to read it all over again!
- Anxious People…I’m still in the middle of this book, but it hasn’t disappointed me, yet! I listened to it on Audible and the reader was really great! I found it funny and super smart!
- They Both Die At The End…This book was calm, and peaceful, and a GREAT book to read before bed. It is super popular right now and had 87 holds at the library! (My dad bought it, instead.)
- Good Omens…I read this book in class and thought it was AMAZING. Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett teamed up and wrote one of the most funny things I’ve ever read. It’s definitely not slapstick, but more of an intelligent humor.
- Animal Farm…I did a class study on this book and thought it was really cool. We looked at historic political figures that related directly to animal farm and when it all connected, my mind exploded. I have no brain left (which is actually why it took so long to write this blog post. Writing is extremely difficult without a brain).
Nextly, (which I am making an official word as of now) I have been baking more. I tried making merengue-dollop-hersheys-kiss-shaped-thingy-things which, apart from deflating slightly, turned out great!
I also made brownies!*
*pause as audience claps on all that I have achieved. (there won’t be a speech)
I just used a mix, but have never made brownies before, so I considered it a WIN!
Now…for a moment you might have randomly been waiting for…Valentines Day!
Going into the past a bit, I had a surprising amount of fun! I drew a SPECTACULAR Spiderman card for Doc, made an Encanto card for hazel, used an INSANE amount of inside jokes in my Mom’s card, and got pretty punny for my dad.
My friends and I exchanged sweets! I made my friends sugar cookies, but in the absence of a heart-shaped cookie cutter, I used a lobster shaped one (as one does). In total I got Shortbread cookies from Hawaii, Edible Caramel Cookie Dough, and a Marshmellow Chocolate! Pretty good if you ask me! (hopefully you did ask, otherwise that would be AWKWARD!)
Now for some super minor things that happen that I’m gonna tell you really fast…
Ready? Okay, GO!
- I made a waffle using a really small waffle iron and it was supremely adorable!
- I learned how NOT to make good frosting.
- I made a huge paper map for a school project with my friend, Izze.
- I realized that sometimes I type me instead of my and it makes me sound like a pirate.
- I went to a super awkward high school social event and I realized being social is hard
PHEW! That was FAST!
Let’s see…
Well, Doc just came into my room and made this LOVELY face at me as I was writing:
Speaking of Doc, he is going to be our friend’s ring bearer at her wedding! He was super excited to hear the news! (Or he may have been excited because there was a ring pop and Care Bear stuffed animal involved…)
Now for…Actor Of The Week!
Justin Roiland!
He has been in one of my favorite shows, Rick and Morty (as Rick AND Morty), Small Foot, Space Jam: A New Legacy, Gravity Falls, and Solar Opposites.
Finally, I got into the high school I wanted!!! My friend and I are going together and will get to carpool together!!! I am SO excited!!!
Enjoy your day!
