Rainy Monday

I had a lazy Sunday and a rainy Monday.

About ten minutes ago I put a load in the washer and now, I just finished doing my church lifestyles homework that's due tomorrow and I only got home maybe an hour ago.

Sunday, yesterday, had a movie sleepover at my dad's house with my sister, and two brothers.


We watched District 9, Inglorious Basterds, Family Guy x2, Public Enemies. [in that order too]

All of which were really good and I recommend watching them, Family Guy too.

Today: sat around my dad's playing Unblock Me on my little brother's iTouch, read a little of my book, watched videos that were taken way back when, went to target, went home to mom, went to Joann's Fabric and Crafts store to buy stuff for my sewing class at school, went to the pharmacy, went to pick up something at Cherry Blossom, went to In-n-Out, went home, ate, went on Facebook. You already know from there. I guess I should have called this BUSY Monday.

Any-hoo what I really wanted to talk about [as if I hadn't already done enough of that already] was the book I bought Saturday and finished today, a couple of hours ago. I didn't have time to really sit down and read it so it took me forever to read! The book. . .it's called:

"The Maze Runner" [A mere 374 pages]

The book was so trippy I was like "Whaaaaat?" and  "What the heck?" and "Oh My God!" and "Hmm. . .I think. . .hmmm." and "No way. Are you serious?" plus other exclamations, in fact, too many to list them all.

It really had me thinking, accusing, feeling lost, sad, angry, anxious, scared, SO many other words and emotions that I can't convey them all. It's truly a mystery, thriller, a fantastical adventure that I was so anxious and excited to get to the end to finish it. I wanted to just peek at the very last page of reading, not to necessarily read it, just look at it. I like to do that. But four huge words under the last sentences of the book caught my eye:

"END OF BOOK ONE"
I was like, "Are you serious James Dashner???"

Obviously, I read the damn book anyway and I'm glad I did. I'm excited to read the rest of the trilogy, yes trilogy, "The Scorch Trials" and "The Death Cure."

The former releasing October 2010 [sadly]
The latter releasing. . .still unknown [which means a long time from now, which is also sad]

I loooooove books.
I loooooove to read.

Go read a book!
Specifically the one I just babbled about, shuck-face.
