    Hey, just FYI we backed out of the deal. So we are traveling again. We didn't buy the house. Sigh, oh well, maybe God has a better plan for us.

    Oh wow...over 500 books! I've only recently finished reading The Bell Jar. Did you like it that much? I saw Rick Riordan's books 2, 3, and 4. Did you read the first one? I laughed at your comment about being addicted to kitting while listening to an audio book. I totally understand as I am addicted to cross-stitching instead :) I have to hide it from myself during the school year or else papers would not get corrected on time.

    Yes I would have to agree with you on that statement. She's not at all my favorite author, but the "Bell Jar" really was a phenomenal novel. I loved how it was autobiographical, but she never even admitted to it... She was a fascinating individual and I don't regret ever reading her. Do you still like to read books within that genre of like "realistic/angsty fiction"?

    Hey there,

    I'm not going to say much (haha, right?), but I wanted to just update you on how I've been doing, since I've barely been around Shelfari in the past few months, and I'm probably going to delete my Myspace this summer (sorry, Truvy, and whoever else has me added. I just don't maintain it and to have all that personal information just sitting there, with the possibility of it getting spread, isn't worth the risk to me.) Anyways, some things: I graduate in four days from today, on Sunday. I'm pretty excited, I think, more to see family and such than to graduate. I'm sure it will be an emotional day, anyhow. Had my final choir concert last night, too; it was one of the most amazing nights of my life. So much connection, so many tears, so many memories all packed into about two hours. Crazy, but amazing! Ummm... what else? The day after graduation, I will be starting training to work six days (and sometimes nights) a week at a stables. Then this fall, I'm entering college, hoping to major in vocal (for now, since I got a scholarship), office administration (which seems more... job acquiring after college... than a vocal major does), and I'm still considering veterinary technician studies (I'd have to transfer twice, including once out-of-state, to complete that, though, so I'm not sure.) Other than that, not much else going on with me, just being driven nuts by all the graduation preparation in these final few days. I will probably not be writing at all this summer, and I don't know when I'll be writing this fall, due to my unknown college schedule, because Shelfari isn't exactly my forte anymore, even though it was for a while.

    I guess that's all from me. Sorry if this is too long. I guess I had to cram a lot to say into a little (well, sort of... haha...) message. Hope you are doing as well as I am and have a great summer, if I don't talk to you before I start working and college and all that jazz.

    P.S. BJG, if you know Japanese, even some, you should get in contact with my friends. They're obsessed with manga and anime, yet they know nothing of the actual Japanese culture (which I find incredibly strange and a bit childish.) Anyways, they want to learn Japanese words; maybe you could help them some?

    Cool, that's awesome, yeah when they say that making things has its rewards they are right. The feeling of completeing something that you made with your own bare hands and something that is unique is just unbeatable.

    Hi belljargirl,

    I was wondering if you've seen the new movie, August Rush? It came out last year and I've seen it twice. I was wondering, though... I'm writing a fan fiction based off it and at the point where I am right now, Evan (August) is asking his mother (Lyla) what kind of books she is going to get him, since he doesn't have clothes, books, etc. of his own. I'm stuck at that point because I don't know what kinds of books Evan might read, being only 11, almost 12, years old and already a Julliard student, a music prodigy.

    I can give you more information on the movie if you need it, but I was wondering if you had any suggestions for books Evan might read, being 11, almost 12? The story is set in 2006-2007, which is 11, 12 years after he was born.

    Thanks,

    Cammy

    Hi! Just saw your note on 50 Book Challenge. I'm only at 12 books so far. Too many distractions!

    Happy Birthday BJG! I hope the month treats you well! I have a question for you: I noticed that you're recently read The Hundred Secret Senses and Anne Sexton poetry. I was tossing about the idea of reading those, but wasn't sure... What did you think of them?
