Sadly, not books.

Lately, I've been re-reading some things and I started to re-read Just Listen by Sarah Dessen. It's one of my all time favorite books. I just finished Harry Potter and The Order of the Phoenix  by J.K. Rowling. I started to read the next in the series, Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince, but I haven't been in the mood for it and I don't know why. I want to read it but it's like my brain is saying, "Hey, let's read other things instead." I don't know.

Today was my last day as a junior in highschool. I will be a senior this coming school year. I'm excited and dreading it at the same time. On one hand, there's the fact that I will only have one more year at my school and at the same time, there's only one more year at this place. Ugh! Dilemmas!

Wish I had more to report, but sadly my life has been rather dull, even my book life has been too.

Until next time,

Viruses, Viruses, Viruses...

I have recently learned that my computer had a virus and it has now been fixed but it had taken over my computer and was preventing me from accessing the internet. This is a very bad thing seeing as I have an online assignment due by Monday morning and I have to update on here. Funniest thing was that I had only gotten on because I wished to listen to Pandora and its been about 2 days since I've seen my computer, so it's nice to have it back. :)

In other news, I finished City of Bones Monday of this past week and now both The Fallen and Leviathan  and  City of Bones are back with the friend that I borrowed them from. I want the next book in the series so badly! The way that it ends...just...I can't. I think I explained earlier that rooting for an incestuous relationship was weird for me and it still is, but when you're reading these books you just hope, against all odds, that Jace and Clary aren't related. You kind of actually wish that Simon was her brother instead. SIMON! He's a vampire!! I was so shocked when I first read that he was "dead" that I cried a little. He drives me crazy with most of the stupid things he does but he's always there for Clary and that makes him okay in my book. Clary's powers astound me. I was completely befuddled when I read the first encounter with them, but damn! I almost with that I had them.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix has taken my attention for the moment. I had started reading it last year, but I got caught up reading other things. So, now I'm back reading it and I'm almost finished reading it actually. I'm not going to put the cover up because it's a little pointless if I'm just going to finish it by tonight. I love this book. The way that McGonagall goes after Umbridge during Harry's career meeting cracks me up. Although I'm not a fan of how they used a stunning curse on her and hit her in the chest 4 simultaneous times. Bunch of ridiculous toadstools, they are.

Wish I could post more but I have exams and studying to do. My finals start next week and go on for a week and a half. I am happy that all of the freshman and sophomores have to stay on the june 10th. Hahaha it's mandatory for them and not for the upperclassmen. Ahh, life is good.

Until next time,
