Suddenly I have jumped back on the Bandwagon of Geekdom

So my friend and I started watching the Taiwanese version of Hana Kimi and all of the sudden, I found myself rereading the series. But like, HARDCORE reading the series; screaming when good things happened, squealing over how hot Sano is, etc. I even looked at the Wu Chun fan club and started listening to S.H.E. again. It's like high school all over again! I'm having a hard time coming to terms with it because I feel as if I'm regressing. This is the first time I've read manga in YEARS, and clearly it's showing.

I wish I could say I'm getting further in reading novels, but my school work is keeping me from getting to far on that. I did, however, finish the newest Bloody Jack book, and all I have to say is this: Fuck you, Jaimy!

I'm Baaaaaaack

Well I fell like a prize idiot. I never can stick to things long, and I guess this wasn't an exception. I am, however, going to update this a lot more.

Anyway, so much has happened since my last post. My boyfriend and I celebrated our 1 year anniversary in October, I went to Youmacon, my college football team went to Alabama, and as a band member, I went too, the semester came and went, I passed all of my exams, and here we are in the new semester. Woo.

So I haven't been reading much in the past few months - there was no time! But I am starting a new novel, On Agate Hill by Lee Smith. It's historical fiction, so if you like the Civil War era, you might want to pick it up. Or not. I don't really know yet.





One book I did finish in the past few months was the last Georgia Nicholson book, Are These My Basoomas I See Before Me? by Louise Rennison. This is one of my favorite series ever, and it was sad to see it end, but the book was good! If you're looking for a laugh-out-loud-in-the-middle-of-a-silent-room-and-have-everyone-turn-and-stare-at-you book, this one's for you. But of course, read the rest of the series first. The movie, Angus, Thongs, and Perfect Snogging, just came out in the US on dvd, and I'm quite excited for it.


Also, the latest Bloody Jack book, Rapture of the Deep: Being an Account of the Further Adventures of Jacky Faber, Soldier, Sailor, Mermaid, Spy by L.A. Meyer came out a while ago, and it too was awesome. This is another one of my favorites, so if the piratical adventures of a teenage girl is more up your alley, I'd look into it.


Hm. Well, that's about it. I'll try to make my postings a bit more regular from this point forward(although after a 4 month hiatus, any posting is more regular).
