What came after Breaking Dawn...........

-
After finishing Breaking Dawn I didn't think that I could love any book ever again. Boy, was I totally wrong about that!!! This is the first time that I've actually been glad to be wrong......

The lovely sisters Brynn and Cherstin recommended both of the following books to me. Thank you guys for telling my mom about the Uglies!!

My mom and I absolutely adore the Uglies series!! Please don't tear me apart for saying this but.....I think it was way better that any of the Twilight books......

I didn't read this book at first because everybody I knew who read it told me,"Oh, Sunbum you would love this!! It's so your kind of book!!" I truly despise being predicable so I decided I wasn't going to read it, and their predictions wouldn't come true. (Ha!) You can see how well that plan worked out.........I'm a sucker!! I couldn't resist for very long; so now I have proved them right! I really hoped that I wouldn't like it, but my hoping was all in vain! It was so good I could hardly stand to put it down for more than I second!!

Thank you guy again for telling me about these awesome books!!

    I'd posted awhile back and asked for suggestions for my daughter (9yr) for books. She just finished this Maximum Ride series and loved it more than Harry Potter. She's been bugging me to read it for awhile now. I guess I'll take your suggestion and finally read it.

    Was Uglies too teen for a nine year old?

    Has your 9 year old read Coraline? My 9 year old sister just finished it and loved it.......I read it a while ago and thought it was awesome!!! I think that was pretty good for a 9 year old.

    Twilight will always hold "my favorite book" spot in my heart.

    I just read a James Patterson book and it was so scandalous. I blushed the entire time.

SPRING BREAK!!!!

Words cannot express how much love I feel for Spring Break right now. This picture pretty much sums up how I felt when I got out of school last Friday! It has been a crazy busy semester, so this week without having to worry about assignments and projects has been absolutely fantastic! Unfortunately, it's now Thursday and it is almost time to dive back into reality! :( Alright so here are five things that I love at the moment: 1. Sherlock Holmes on BBC!! Even when I am super busy I make time to watch this show! :) It has hilarious dialogue, plus it doesn't hurt that Sherlock is super cute! And the best part of this show is that the next episode for season two is going to air on my birthday!!!! To say that I am excited is a complete understatement! 2. Popcorn! The popcorn my mom buys hardly has any calories, it is delicious, and pretty much my favorite food at the moment! 3. The Clockwork Prince! I bought this book the week after it came out, and I fell in love with it. I

New York Story: NYC's Version of The Little Mermaid

New York City in the summer is Satan's literal anus. It smells bad and it's hot as hell. In an effort to help people in the city cool down, the fire department opens up the fire hydrants. Many people use the open water as a splash pad or a car wash. I preferred to close the curtains and lay in front of a fan for hours at a time. But to each their own, right? I lived down the street from the 1 Train at 135th and used that train almost exclusively to get to Amelia and Dillon's house. The 1 train was more reliable than the life ruining M11 bus, even though I liked taking the bus to the West Side way more. Anyway, since I practically lived on their couch on the weekend, the trip from Hamilton Heights to the West Side was familiar.  On this particular occasion, I had dinner plans with Amelia and Dillon and I was already running behind. I decided to walk on the right side of the street so I could pick up dessert at the grocery store before getting on the train. For reference, I N

Thanksgiving Day One!!

Okay, so I have never blogged from my phone before, so this will be interesting! Winter I my favorite time of the year. I love the cold weather, the clothes, the Christmas romantic comedies, and especially the general attitude. I love having an attitude of gratitude. And it seems like during the holiday season other people adopt that point of view as well. One of the most rewarding feelings is when you bring a light into someone's life, and the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays gives opportunities to do that. For the next five days I will be posting the things I am thankful for!! 5) Over the summer, I decided that I wanted to do a big project for personal progress. I decided on making baby hats for premature babies. Unfortunately, however, I am not crafty, I don't know how to knit, and I fail miserably at every artsy endeavor I have tried. Despite all the things that could go wrong, I bought hat knitting looms. It took a couple of days for me to finally learn how to do
