Very Inspiring Blogger (No, I'm Not Just Randomly Complimenting Myself)

Heeeey, guys. I know I haven't been posting regularly and none of them have been reviews lately, but I'm still in my first week of class so hopefully I can get a routine down soon and get back to, if not same, then similar posting pattern. Love you guys and thanks so much for following this blog and...just caring about what I think...which (admit it) is pretty awesome of you.

You guys deserve all the chocolate you can get, but since 1) I'm not blessed with unlimited money and 2) I don't know my way around this (new) darn town yet you'll have to satisfy yourselves with imaginary chocolate.

You'll be okay. *pats head*



Thanks so much for nominating me, Kate! I'm so glad to know I'm a VIB. ;) 

Rules
1. Thank and link back to the amazing person(s) who nominated you.
2. List the rules and display the award. 
3. Share seven facts about yourself.
4. Nominate some other amazing blogs and comment on their posts to let them know they have been nominated.


Facts
1. I have played a sport called wiffleball (I think that's what it's called anyway) which is a simpler, kinda wacky version of baseball. I injured myself too. I think this shows that sports and I are not compatible. 

2. I can eat a lot if I'm really hungry. I'm talking three large pieces of pizza plus hot wings and salad. I feel it's fair at this point to inform you that I'm 5 foot 3. 

3. I don't like mayonnaise on any kind of sandwich except for Reuben sandwiches. They are pieces of divineness. But don't take my word for it, you need to try it. Go. *shoos*

4. Despite me not liking sports that much, I can do a pretty good job of catching any type of ball. Not to brag or anything. ;)

5. My hair frizzes when it's humid. Or actually...it just frizzes. 

6. Even though I'm scared of heights, deep water, and roller coasters, I have walked across an extremely shaky, blowing-around-in-the-wind suspension bridge, swam in the 8 1/2 foot side of the pool, and ridden a small ring shaped roller coaster. I have heart problems now. 

7. I love all Marvel movies. Like even Fantastic Four or whatever the heck it's called that nobody likes. 

My Nominees...

S.R. @McKade 
Ashtyn @Wonderland's Reader
Sophia @Ravens and Writing Desks
And whoever else wants to join in!

    Ba ha ha! XD I totally laughed out loud at #6.

    *nods* Frizzy hair. Grr. I'd like the whole humidity thing to go away. Immediately.

    No problem! :) Thank you for being a VIB.

      RIGHT?? Frizzy hair is so annoying. Why can't it just stay? *wails*

      My pleasure :)

    WIFFLEBALL! I UNDERSTAND NOW! Lol I actually know what sport your talking about now. x)
    4= Bragging is totally acceptable. You deserve it...just don't do it all the time. Don't worry I'll knock you down a few pegs if you'r head get's too big, because hey what are friends for? ;)

      YAY. I KNEW I WAS REMEMBERING IT WRONG WHEN I TALKED TO YOU ABOUT IT. Do you like wiffleball? Hmmm?

      Yes, ma'am. I'm definitely gonna keep the bragging to a reasonable level now...That "knocking down a few pegs" sounds painful. ;)

    Thanks for the nomination!
    And oh frizzy hair. I understand.
    (Though I think that my hair thrives in humidity and frizzes while dry. I dunno - I'm a curly headed anomaly or something. My hair wishes that it could detach itself and live a life of glory in Costa Rica.)

      It looks like most of my nominees have already sighted my nominations ;) That cuts my workload by a lot aka you're awesome. :D

      Yes. Frizzy hair. Independent stuff isn't it. Your hair shouldn't be able to take vacations if you yourself can't. It's just not fair. #fact

    FIRST OF ALL THANK YOU YOU GLORIOUS HUMAN BEING.

    Secondly, the post is up. ;) Go read it. I say you're "the best" in it, if that helps. :P

    Thirdly, three pieces of pizza, salad, and wings? Psshh. You and I both know you eat that much every time we eat pizza. Are you forgetting the time you ate around half the pizza by yourself?

Waiting on Wednesday {2}

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine where you talk about books that you can't wait to read, but that are, unfortunately, not published yet.   In a Handful of Dust by Mindy McGinnis Publication date: September 23, 2014 Publisher: Katherine Tegen Books The only thing bigger than the world is fear. Lucy’s life by the pond has always been full. She has water and friends, laughter and the love of her adoptive mother, Lynn, who has made sure that Lucy’s childhood was very different from her own. Yet it seems Lucy’s future is settled already—a house, a man, children, and a water source—and anything beyond their life by the pond is beyond reach. When disease burns through their community, the once life-saving water of the pond might be the source of what’s killing them now. Rumors of desalinization plants in California have lingered in Lynn’s mind, and the prospect of a “normal” life for Lucy sets the two of them on an epi

Book Haul + My First Guest Post (!)

Guys, guys, guys, guys. I did my very first guest post at Tansie Gray's blog Totally Tansie  and it was awesome collaborating with her! Tansie's blog is full of hilarious book reviews, rants, and writing tips. I had a great time writing the post: "10 Ways to Make Your Sister Mad"  I'd love it if you could pop over to Totally Tansie and check it out (And maybe leave a comment. Hint, hint). [][][][][][][][] I also went to my favorite used-books store last Sunday. I didn't get as many books as usual...Not many YA novels *gasp*. I felt unfulfilled. But I didn't want to spend what the books cost, so I snatched a few middle-grade types.  1. Princess Sonora and the Long Sleep by Gail Carson Levine A short fairytale re-telling of Sleeping Beauty in a funny, simple way. It's very  short. 107 pages short. 2.   The Sea of Monsters by Rick Riordan Book 2 of the Percy Jackson series! Now I can finally read it and see how it measures up to th

Airplanes and Sky

Remember when I talked about big travel things that I was going to do this summer? THE TIME. HAS. COME. IT IS HERE. YAY. As you can probably tell, I'm just a little excited. Me and my family are headed to Taiwan this summer for my uncle's wedding and since plane trips aren't really a regular thing for us, it'll be awesome.  If you know me even a little bit, you know that I love  traveling and gosh I'm just so excited to be able to be in and see another culture for a little while. *happy dance* Another reason I'm writing this is to tell you about how I get ready for major trips and whatever little tips I use to make traveling easier. Maybe they'll help you in a future trip. ^^ Any trip needs music, but especially one where there are multiple long layovers and a hugely long flight over the Pacific Ocean. I've been updating the music on my phone (music helps me sleep so much better too), which is fun and boring at the sa
