oh, friday, friday, friday. i love it so.
well, i'm listening to my soundtrack of life, right now, and having fun with that.
i read a book this afternoon, 'Tiger Moon' it was confusing, and more than a bit sad, but good overall, mixing elements of Hindu with all the beauty of fairy tales like those of Italy- it was a nice book, although the plot didn't quite snatch me up.
i did manage to solve the riddle though.
last post i pestered everyone to visit Bookbat's. did anyone? please, leave a comment, or better yet, a review. i'm fixing it so you don't even need to be a member to post. for anyone new, Bookbat's world is a book reviewing webbie i created last year. a place where people like me can write about books and recomend them to others, or just talk to other fans.. it hasn't been ver active, and i'm hoping to get more members on, and re-open it, modified and better. the link is to your right. just drop by!
well, i survived basket ball of PE.. next up, Ultimate Frisbee. oh joy, oh joy.
SPEAKING of joy..
I am going to the Mrom- the Mormon Prom, for 16-18 year olds.
and i have a date( sorta). i'm so excited!!! G'ma's making me a dress, been working on it for ages. it's dark blue silk, and so pretty, like a dream... i've been walking on air just thinking about it.
and i'm in a spoof on the Twilight movie for drama. i'm narator. YES!
and there is a cookie on my bed!
well, i best be going now, leave a comment!

of books, fanfics, talentshows and some randomness
hello, hello.
been a bit, i guess. sorry about that. let me see: books
i've read many good ones- you know the kind- hug to your chest and never want to let go? that kind maximum ride: final warning tops this weeks list, followed closely by 'uprising' the story of three girls during the American industrial revolution/ mill fires. it was rather sad, and very different from anything else the author has written. my fave line? " the story starts, like so much else, with Hope. Hope, and daring, and Dreams" gosh, is the beautiful or what? and then there was 'the Ruby Key' an amazing fantasy story.
also on the topic of books- this just in:13th reality book 2: hunt for dark infinity' followed in a matter of days by the next 39 clues book( think, national treasure, but more clues, more famous ppl, more important, and with orphans and an au pair( is that spelled right? aw, heck with it. u know what i mean) w/ a nose ring)i. can't. wait. that that only starts off the spring season! at the end of the month, Brandon Mull pulls out 'secret of the dragon preserve' the 4Th fablehaven. then in may, sisters Grimm book 7 emerges, and the Masters identity is finally revealed! later that month, all my questions are answered with the final 'Creel and the dragons' book by Jessica Day George( if you haven't yet read her, stop reading this and GO READ HER BOOKS. thanks to a recommendation by yours truly, the local library system has 6 copies of 'Dragon slippers' all checked out at the moment, and 7 copies of 'dragon flight' on the way. i feel very pleased with my self. and lastly, also in may, all is revealed in the last Percy Jackson book, 'the last Olympian'. dang that was a lot of advertising.
in the semi near future, regarding books, in 2010, summer, the long awaited UNICORN CHRONICLES book 4, the Last Hunt comes out.
i am doing a happy dance.
i mean, some ppl have only been waiting since '94 to read it. i've been waiting since '02. Bruce Colville is Evile with the cliffies. but not as bad as one Chris Heimerdinger! 3 years ago we got a 'to be continued' with about 20 lives( of ppl we love), the fate of the nephites, a cursed sword, heck THE FATE OF THE BOOK OF MORMON ITSELF hanging in the balance. and 2 weddings. possibly more.
ok, ok, colville had the fate of some beloved( no pun intended, for your unicorn readers) characters in limbo for 8 or so years...
moving on, as i do a happy dance.
i finished my fanfic, Dark Serenity. it was the first story i've ever finished, written, and submitted for others to read. or just plain story i've finished. i even got over 60 reviews! how awesome is that? it was kinda sad, like my baby was all grown up, and suddenly gone.. is this what mom's gonna feel like when i go off on my own?
talent show: so i was in it, and it was fun. this one guy, Rene, did a light show, and i did my poem, 'sometimes i need to cry'. i'll post it sometime. i was wearing a black top, red and black skirt, and my hair fluffed up into the fro it is. i didn't win, but i was 'only' doing a poem, and since everyone was into the rapp junk.. a belly dancer won. she was really good through.
randomness.... i got into the audition only drama class- 12 students only/total, and all of us want to be in the class, so i won't need to deal with the blanks i do now, who just make trouble. it is gonna rule. plus, we write the fall play! sweetness!
lastly, please, please, visit bookbat, write a review, please?
anyway, more later.

ialmost died, a long weekend, happiness and books
well, hello, hello!
i am here!
what has happened recently?
i had a lovely time at YW on Wednesday, including a gift from Jenni- a new journal, and Jessica Day George's latest book, Princess of the Midnight Ball. i have started it and i LOVE IT! i really, truly love it! and then there's the matter of the title page, with a note in lime green ink, wishing my a happy 16th birthday.. i think i was in shock for a full 20 minutes.
i suppose you are wondering about the first part of the title-' i almost died'. i had PE. we ran the mile. i had hurt my leg. enough said- or not! i ran as hard as i could- and it hurt badly, so i wouldn't have to run TWO MILES next week.
i finished with 30 seconds to spare, and promptly collapsed on the field, on my side, breathing heavily. that was mistake number 2(first one was not running in the first place)
lactic acid built up in my muscle and basically paralyzed them.. and since my arms were crossed on the ground in front of me, my lungs were rather cramped, squeezed, ect. since i already could hardly get enough air from the running, i now had to think, to concentrate, on each breath..no one seemed to notice me, and since i could barely get enough air to live, i couldn't call for help. i lay there praying for what seemed forever, although it was only 5 minutes. other students walked by me, not noticing. friends did too. i heard two kids joking about it -'Anna's dieing".. they never stopped to think.
i know have a new look on the parable of the good Samaritan. because it was not a friend who noticed i was in need of help, not the teacher- with a class of 40 students, some still running, she never saw- but one of the boys that constantly made fun of me, teasing me, calling me names, making rude remarks.
after calling over the teacher, he went back to a game of football- but still, had he not noticed, who knows what would have happened?.
this weekend i am going to hang out with cousins. tis going to be fun.
i just realized i never told you about my 16th birthday!
not much to tell- i went out to dinner, got a kite from dad, a book from mom, the end. not the 16th birthday i envisioned, but none of my cousins were around that whole week. i'm actually kind of bitter- i didn't even get a card. but lets not dwell on that.
on to the happiness? i already covered the gift from Jessica d George/ Jenni. i'm also finaly at 50 reviews for my fan fic, and i'm nearly done with that as well. last night at a local bookstore, i found a book that B&N claims doesn't exists( they are found of claiming that), but didn't buy it, as i was short cash.
i did well at the talent show auditions, i hope.
STARS! i forgot- there is a huge storm right now! huge, huge ,huge! right off the ocean! 10 minutes ago, the ground was dry, npow its stooden, the clouds are like lead, and theworld is filled with the plink of rain on tile roof tops. i love it.
last thing: visit my profile on fanfiction( under 'authors' Hedgi Naysomay Aisling.)
anyway, more later

Oh dear, it has been far too long
i would love to say i had a perfectly wonderful excuse for not blogging, however i do not.

i'm surviving PE.. i guess we are doing basket ball now
i auditioned for and did not make the school musical...
i memorized about 1/2 the les miz soundtrack.
my room is cleaner.
i wrote a really good( in my opinion) essay in history about the Philosophes., and got an A plus on it- i may post it, if you ask
i um...( what else did i do?) thought i had a wisdom tooth, but it was really a huge canker sore that made it impossible to speak for 3 days.
i began work on a little writing project about the story of the six swans- from the PoV of the sister.
i have not worked on SOD, as i am very stuck.... same gos for DOTW and U.
i wrote some poetry
what is comming up:
i'm auditioning for the talent show- with a poem! lets hope we don't have a repeat of last year!
i am preforming a scene based of the Les Miz musical finale in drama..with friends. and i'm the only one who REALLY knows the tune- but that doesn't matter if we have fun
i'm thinking about joining the teen playreaders club..
i'm going to a young weomens activity ..a book discussion..where we will eat chocolate brownie/cake and discus one of my fave books- dragon slippers!
i have a new pen name- Hegdi Naysomay Aisling. pretty odd, huh?
