GOOD MORNING =]

i just have to say, i really love this blogging thing. i think it really works for me =]
okay on to the first deal of business
1. for IB english next year we have to read one book from the summer reading list which includes Life of pi, which i thought was absolutely boring when i read the first page... Moby Dick which i didn't want to read because i don't like classics, and the Kite Runner which i absolutely loved! along with reading the book we had to write notes about it which was the main characters with brief explanations, settings of the novel, conflicts of the novel, and last but not least, a possible theme of the novel. i figured i'd just do the notes like a week before school started but i didn't want to leave it for later because i think i'd forget about it and i was feeling really productive tonight so i decided to do them. i did... and i finished. and it really wasn't that hard once i went to wikipedia and just basically rephrased everything on there =] so that's done
2. i really want to get my license sometime before school starts because um hello... it's called "i'm sixteen and i havn't gotten my license and almost 2 months have passed and i really need a car so i don't have to ride the bus!" and so i got really annoyed with my mother and how i just want to take the test and i don't need to practice parking anymore because i can do forward and backing really well and if i don't pass parallel that's just 4 points off and you need to get 6 points off to not be able to leave the parking lot. so she said she'd take me on tuesday up to KRESA to park and hopefully she won't be really naggy and hopefully i won't get so annoyed that i just want to give up like the previous two times i have went parking. i really hate parking
but i love driving
so i guess it's okay.
3. my mom bought the whole twilight series including the book that's supposed to be coming out soon. and i've been really wanting to read them because people said they were so good and i saw really neat flairs on facebook about twilight and how aparently edward cullen is so sexy even though you have to imagine him. so i'm deeply excited that soon i will be in possession of the most popular books of the summer =]
4. i have been really interested in the Da Vinci Code both the book and the movie for some time now so i decided to go on to yahoo answers and type in "books similar to the Da Vinci Code and i got a whole list of religion-puzzle-solving-adventure type books and i also added a couple from amazon that sounded good =]
5. i just found out about this AMAZING new gadget called the amazon kindle. it's this electronic library that doesn't use wifi, it uses the kind of connection that powers cell phones which is really cool. it's $350.00 but once i get a job i really want to start saving for it! all the books for it are $10.00. you can email word documents to it, you also get free wireless internet connection directly to wikipedia =] my fave =] it just sounds so cool that i HAVE to have it =]
perhaps my parents will chip in a little bit =] i mean, it is for education =]
haha
anyways
this is the end of my blog for this morning.. wow it's morning... wierd...
bed time, i slept horribly last night on the couch so i plan to sleep wonderfully in my bed.. after i organize my closet and dresser of course =]
i'm telling you, i feel so productive today!

xoxo,
Renae
