Goal: 100 Books in 2010

This is something I haven't done in years. I was able to accomplish this in my early teens but high school had pretty much ruined my reading habits. Let's see if I can keep it up this year! Novel-length books will only count, though it does not matter what genre: young adult, fantasy, romance, classic, etc. This is very ( Read more... )

So I've been a bit book crazy lately... and to all my f-list who read YA, I absolutely recommend reading Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater. I did not read Twilight (I still refuse to) but I did give in and read a werewolf book. I was blown away.

Anyways,  the sequel is due soon but I am still dying to get my hands on a copy of an ARC. Maggie Stiefvater is ( Read more... )

Boo....
My paid account is expiring in four days... I don't know whether or not I should pay for another year. :/

Thoughts?

For lack of a better title (and cliche)....

Believe it or not, I feel like I've been so swamped with work. It was like I was hit by a truck. I can't be put under so much pressure... I'll crack. And I did. At the end of the week, I just passed out when I got home. Sigh. But I still got through it.

Exams last week went really terrible. Well, stats did ( Read more... )

Haven't posted anything or even read anything from friends in like forever. I'll use the lame school excuse, but really I've just been doing a lot of reading on my new Nook.

With the release of the Hunger Games 3 title (squee - Mockingjay!) and cover art (and the fact that the snow has made the unfortunate occurrence of Scholastic internship Wednesdays, much to my dismay and utter disappointment), I was inspired to make icons for my favorite Hunger Games / Catching Fire quotes from Peeta & Katniss.

Since I am such in a ( Read more... )

Ok, so today, I have absolutely wasted (well, not really in my terms) a productive day doing nothing but fangirl stuff.

I wasted away my morning browsing on some fanfiction (I am still neglecting to read dmhgficexchange  even if I am weeks behind - eep!!!) though I didn't find anything good.

Sigh, ok, I really don't like to talk about RL stuff on LJ but RL has ( Read more... )

Hey everyone! I just wanted to say Happy Holidays! Have a very spectacular New Year!

Quick shoutouts to floorcoaster, inadaze22, devils_succubus for the lovely v-gifts .

For an update on RL, I am actually away for the holidays in California. I'm enjoying myself so far, liking the time I've been spending with family. The weather has also been very ( Read more... )

Just a quick post to say that I've changed my layout.... Another Boyd one. I went for simplicity this time around. I wanted something clean. :)

The text on the banner is from the song "High Times" by Landon Pigg featuring the Turbo Fruits from the movie Whip It.

Have a nice day f-list.

I was in an actual icon-making mood this weekend (AKA procrastination). Finally switched to the Mac and I'm slowly getting used to using Photoshop. Really, the only difference is copying and pasting but still.

Anyways... The manipulation was sort of made by accident. I was making long overdue banners for dmhg_icontest when my sister went, "WHOA is that a real ( Read more... )
