That Kind of Girl


I want to be that kind of girl
the one who looks like a pearl
the one who can cry
but not be shy
the one who says, "Who cares?"
when, in reality, she cares
But that girl isn't me
only a girl I wish to be....
but that's me....

VAMPIRE ACADEMY

Now I finished Vampire Academy I think the Monday of last week or something. Can I tell you something? I WAS HOOKED. Totally hooked. I loved the whole few girl guardians thing and Dimitri and Christian...who can I love more? But now I am on Shadow Kiss and this book is amazing too. Now I'm stuck among Christian, Dimitri, and Adrian. Decisions, decisions. I don't know but these guys have something to fall in love for. Christian is the semi-psycho one. Dimitri is the quiet sophisticated one with a bad temper--like Rose. Adrian is just the hopeless flirt among them. But God they are some people to live for...anyway...I have to get back to Shadow Kiss.....

DECEMBER!!!!

Yeah! I know! It's December!!!! OMG!!!

Yup it is. December is the time for giving and a time for everything. It's a time for Christmas parties and presents. It's time for all the Scrooge's in the world to turn nice after their own Christmas Carol.

I love Christmas.

The trees and the ornaments. The outrageous traditional Christmas pageants. The giving and the caring. It's AMAZING! So that's all I had to say. But yeah. So far December's good, but it can get all messed up.

What's your fav thing about December?

High School....sucks?



Yes...when we think of high school that is what we think of. Some people say, "High school was the best four years of my life!" or "High school? That was the worst four years of my life, I would never go back." or it's something extremely random like..."High school? I'm still mad about Judy for taking MY man. I mean seriously can't she keep her hands to herself?"

Now for me I'm just a freshman. Yeah that's right I said it, I'm a god damned freshman. Here I am going to a bigger campus to harder classes and you know what I think?

I think high school is a mix of times of total suckishness and a time for total awesomeness.

Don't go saying, "WAHT?" In your little text message language. It's true. As for me I'm still a freshman and that means I'm not really a high schooler....more like a toddler going into kindergarden. We really don't know everyone and your a little scared to what's ahead...but hey that's high school. I'm not really making much mistakes here but some people are I guess and I'm starting to wonder if that's a vision of how their future will be for the next three years. If it is...than my next three years aren't that bad...you know considering the total homicidal family life, I have it's not too bad :D

This is probably what some people were thinking about the first day of school. Whether it be new people, new school, new neighborhood, new friends, old enemies, first day of school outfits...whatever... That little girl in the picture? Yeah that's probably some of us the midnight before the first day of school. Oh well...I guess life will get better...you know, when hell freezes over.

Random BLOG!

Hey! Now I just got back from Hawaii and it was a good trip. I just don't like the fact that I missed a few important stuff I left in Cali. Anyway I mostly spent my time in the hotel room, at the beach, or in a bookstore...basically what I do at home so honestly it wasn't the grandest of trips. One thing that was really amazing is that I went to the Polynesian Cultural Center and although I didn't get to see all of the exhibits I still loved it. I also went to the Luau they had and the food was delicious! I can't wait to come back but that's going to take sometime...Hawaii's expensive!!! Now I will tell you this...I bought Mocking Jay on Monday but read and finished it yesterday because I was reading it on the flight and I was determined to finish it. So that basically wraps up my trip in a paragraph...I guess.....so that's it :) happy end-of-summer-school's-starting soon!

Mocking Jay

Suzanne Collins has done it again! Mocking Jay was a compelling, fast paced, and heartbreaking book. It was better than The Hunger Games and Catching Fire put together. The way Suzanne puts Katniss's pain in losing so many friends and loved ones is difficult. She makes it look so easy. Katniss's adventures never stop, the ending was a cliffhanger itself. By the end I start to cry, there are so many unanswered questions that I won't ask because it will ruin the book for those who haven't read it. The way one person can start a fire with one gesture in the arena in The Hunger Games is hard to wrap your head around but not impossible. I believe that Katniss's character alone will open the eyes of teens everywhere to the cruelty us humans are capable of. Rather she's fiction on sitting in our classrooms right next to us, the girl we know as Katniss; the girl we know to live through the cruelty of President Snow and being deceived so many times she can't separate the lies from the truth, is all around us, reading this book and realizing that human cruelty is always endless.
This page turner is heartbreaking, frightening, terrible even, and a book that is unable to put down. Even on my flight back from Hawaii I couldn't put it down, knowing that the presence of the book yelling "READ ME! READ ME!" is temptation enough. Knowing that Katniss's adventure will be stalled is just icing on the cake and I can't let go. Want to say so much more but that would be a total spoiler alert!

Some Boredom and a Mini Blog.

So I have just been to Vegas for my spring vacation and it was incredible. I went to shows, Circus Circus, and got to stay at the wonderful Wynn hotel. I loved how it had a great view and it looked so pretty at night.

Also in other things I have been reading a whole stack of books...AT THE SAME TIME!! I know I'm crazy but it's true. I've just finished The Looking Glass Wars and it was INCREDIBLE!!! I loved the ending but you're going to have to read it to find out. Also I've had some new chapters up of my stories. I think one story I'm going to put on hold because I have writer's block on it. Great my first writer's block. Anyway I have a whole bunch of books I'm reading I'll give you a list:

Blue Bloods
Bleed
The Academy
Vladimir Tod #4?
Magic Lesson (from I series I haven't touched since the summer)

Yeah it's getting bigger and the books I bought but haven't read yet are in the other side of the room.
Also anyone there in need of advice?? I've been giving people advice on YouTube in "Dear Buck" from the "What the Buck" show. I've gotten two thank you letters for the advice and I'm thinking of doing more of them. But as you can see no one really looks at these blogs....yes it's sad but oh well. So if you have any advice please tell me I can help you!!!
I may be young but I seem older than my actual age on the internet let me tell you.

So anyone in need of help? Ask me and I'll tell you my thoughts on your problem. Either comment here or just send me a message on my youtube account:

Hope you guys are doing well!!
