One year... Im slacking

So its been like a year since I last posted on here. Which is sorta bad so to say. I have now been on here for 2 years!! WOOT!! I also am going to say my posts are going to be a little bit different sorta haha. For instance, I will be talking about shows I watch like GLEE (I am in love with glee TRULY in love the show), I will also do other random shows aswell that I will and do watch like 90210 and Gossip Girl. I will also be posting alot of Harry Potter related material as well cause as most of you should already know I am obsesses with Harry Potter and the fact the last movie is out in about two and a half months (not even) is going to be very heartbreaking and I know im going to cry like BIG TIME. Tears seem to come out even just thinking that it is going to be the END of a world wide phenomena. It baffles me and I will be rereading all the books too before and after the final film which is set to premiere July 15th 2011. I think my next post will be more Harry Potter related right now I think I am done (but who knows with me lol). Okay with in the last year since I have last posted I have graduated High School WOOT!! :D and I ahve slowly been looking for employment to earn money toward university. Other then that I have read LOTS and I have several book reccomendations for my viewers who read and such...
First off there is The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. First of this trilogy was like an addiction for me, my one friend told me I HAD to read these books, so i did and when I started reading I couldn't stop reading, the first book was just that great and I had to have the next book and the final book. Now in case you have not heard of this trilogy I will tell you whatt the first book is about (I cant with the others cause it SPOILS book one). First off it is a dystopian book and its in the future in a much changed North America after a battle and such happened. Now there are 12 districts (there was 13 but they destroyed it prior to the hunger games start in the dark days) they are all poor, with very little money and food, some districts are more well off then others. They are all controlled by the Capitol which is a very rich town, with alot of people, who don't really have to do much or work very hard like the people living in the districts. Now on to the Hunger Games part, after the dark days ended they created The Hunger Games just for the fun and enjoyment of the Capitol. Now every district must send a male and female tribute, they pick there names out of a bowl (also its only children of the ages 12-18, you also get one additional entry per age you turn so if your 18 you would have 7 or something, you can also sign up for tessara (food each month) BUT you have to have one additional entry per tessara you sign up for, so you can have as manyy as fifty entries in there) now on the day of the reaping (choocing the tributes) the names are pulled out but in district 12 when Katniss's (the main character who tells the stories) sister Prim's name is pulled she takes her place in the Hunger Games, the other tribute from 12 is Peeta. Now for the hunger games it is a game of SURVIVAL, there are 24 tributes all trying to win but to win you muct be the last one surviving. Trubutes are killed by other trubutes, starvation, dehydration, and weather related illness's. Each game area is different every year and they all have there advantages and disadvantages. So this book follows Katniss in the games and I found it a very intense and breathetaking book, that I can say EVERYONE NEEDS to read!! It is an amazing book, that I plan on rereading today probably and I only just read it. Also it is becoming a movie aswell!! And my suggestion is read the book before it comes out March 23rd 2012!! :)
My second book series to read is the House of Night by PC and Kristin Cast. It is a pretty awesome book series (there is 8 so far but book 9 is out in November 2011 and there is a Novella coming out in July this year)
I think that is where I am going to end off for now but I plan on writing more blogs :) and alot will be Harry Potter and Hunger Game related!!!
So tata for now :P
