Library Cards?

{picture}

I got on! The library in my town is actually extremely nice and brand new. They just happen to have the books that I want there too.

It is nice to have a library card and to be able to get these books out and then return them and not have to spend any money. But at the same time, I absolutely love buying new books and going to Borders or Barnes and Noble, but it really does cost too much to buy books. Spending $25 on a book that I will most likely only read once isn't something I want to spend my $25 on anymore. Now that I can just take the book out for free, although I won't have it for my collection, I still am able to read it.

How do you feel about library cards and taking books out vs. buying them?

I need to get this book and read it!
Has anyone been able to get it and read it yet? Please let me know I would love to know how it was... but based off of her other books, I can only imagine it is hilarious!!!

Check it out on amazon.

Have you seen this movie? If not, go see it. Or even read the book. It was great. The meaning to it and what happened throughout were a great lesson and honestly, I wish I could do what she did in it. And maybe I don't just wish it, I actually want to do them. Putting yourself in situations where you are totally uncomfortable and then trying to make it work.

And I absolutely love Julia Roberts, so that automatically won me over.

I only wish I could get a book deal from a publisher to pay for my trip. Seriously, pay me and I will travel wherever you want and write whatever you like. That is an absolutely dream for me! Although I know that most likely will never happen, I will probably just have to take accounts into my own hands and write about places that I go for free, ha ha.


Have you seen this movie or read the book? Give me your opinion.. I would love to hear.

"People think a soul mate is your perfect fit, and that's what everyone wants. But a true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that is holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life. 

A true soul mate is probably the most important person you'll ever meet, because they tear down your walls and smack you awake. But to live with a soul mate forever? Nah. Too painful. Soul mates, they come into your life just to reveal another layer of yourself to you, and then leave. 

A soul mates purpose is to shake you up, tear apart your ego a little bit, show you your obstacles and addictions, break your heart open so new light can get in, make you so desperate and out of control that you have to transform your life, then introduce you to your spiritual master..." 

— Elizabeth Gilbert (Eat, Pray, Love)

Bitter is the New Black

Jen Lancaster is awesome.

Read this book.  She is awesome. She has a bunch of other books to that you should check out.

Bitter is the New Black is about how she was unemployed and what happened during that time. She had been a big shot sales professional making a lot of money and living lavishly until she got laid off and then the adventures that took place after that... especially with the lack of money coming in.

It is a great book and she is hysterical.

The way she got a book written was that someone was reading her blog,. www.jennsylvania.com, and they said she should write one and then it all took off from there.

love it!

read it!!

Reading Twilight Again

With all this free time in my hands, I usually dont do this but I really wanted to read the Twilight series again. I hate re-reading books because I already know what happens in them and I usually find myself skipping pages, but I started reading Twilight again yesterday and I pretty much have forgotten all of the details in the book so reading it over again made it so good!

I am really excited about this.

Does anyone have a suggestion on any books that are like Twilight that I can read?  I remember hearing something about the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo?   Any suggestions on that? Also, someone mentioned Vampire Academy... ?


ps....less than 1 week till Christmas... holy crap!
