Lets switch things up a little!!

Hi and hello, Happy friday! so i know its been forever since i last posted to this here blog (and i also am starting to feel as if i start every post this way), but i promise i have a good reason! Since my last post i have had family emergencies and a death in the family. After a very short battle with pancreatic cancer my grand father passed away on may 5, 2013. I've been at school, i recently did an additional semester at high school just o update or retake some of the courses that i took before graduation. And then, after school i was away for almost two months working, where i had no internet access, other than what my iPhone can stand! I also like to try to make an effort to be on my computer as little as possible during the summer, theres just so much better stuff to do with my time rather than looking at a light box. More recently i have gotten a new job doing intake and front desk reception at a local clinic. Its great!!

Anywhooser, in the 7 weeks that i was up north working, i managed to read through three novels (and even a half of one that i had to borrow from my grandmother!!) I read the first three instalments of the Watersong series written by Amanda Hawking. Oh- emm- gee! they were excellent. i could not put them down!! Today im not going to do any summarizing or anything, but i will say that they were excellent and you should go out and read them!! also fun fact: i did not even realize that i had gotten a signed copy of Lullaby (the second in the series) until i was about half way through the book! How awesome is that?! I simply can not wait for the next and perhaps final instalment of the series entitled "Elegy". Seriously go out and read these, theyre awesome *****/*****

Next things next! i have a whole bunch of books planned for the upcoming months! I am reading through the "Percy Jackson series" first. I know it may seem juvenile but i have the movies and theyre excellent, and theyre one of those series that was around when i was a child, but i never actually had the opportunity to read them, so im going to read them now! Put that in your juice box and suck it! Also i just really love Logan Lerman.... So first is percy Jackson, then i will be refreshing my "blue bloods" memory so that i can read the fresh new last novel called "lost in time" by Melissa De La Cruz. So pumped!! And after that who knows. I have a wack load of nicholas sparks novels to read, and i even want to read HP and the order of the phoenix, and the half blood prince again as well. But i need to also remember not to get carried away as i am also working/ still in school part time.

However, as i am only at work/ school in the evenings i have decided to spice this blog up a bit, with DAILY POSTS!!! Thats right get ready for your daily dose of Hillary because starting Monday we will have:

Blog day monday- in which i will post a new blog talking about whatever i bloody well want to talk about that day
