Meg Cabot :)

I promise I'll finish blogging about Spring break, but this is more important. Haha. So, I. Love. Reading. As you probably didn't know. And my favorite author hands down in Meg Cabot. She's so amazing. I always know that when I pick up one of her books, I'm in for a good day. And probably a little sadness at the end when it's over. But thats completely different than that feeling when you read a really sad book.

But she's such a great author! All her books have amazing heroines who are spunky and in crazy situations that she makes believable. Her books are never depressing. I HATE depressing books, no matter how touching they are or how much they make you think. There are just too many of them out there. I've been on a search in the library for books that don't look sad, and that's PRETTY hard to find.

Plus she's got books in tons of genres! She's got your rockstars solving murder mysteries. Your girl struck by lightning who can find missing people. A wedding planner who can't keep her mouth shut which gets her into tons of trouble. The ever famous Princess Diaries. I haven't actually read those because they're never in the library, but I will someday! She's got some with Greek mythology, and mediators and the list goes on and on and on! I just absolutely love her! Plus, the guys in her books are always Haaawwttttt. Mhmmm. There's always that really cute moment in them where the girl gets herself into a ton of trouble saving the world or something like that, and the guy has to help her out. Now, some of you might be like Hey, that's like, not feminist and girls can take care of themselves. And yeah, they are perfectly capable of taking care of themselves. But it takes an even stronger kind of person to accept help. At least that's my opinion.

So yeah, if you have nothing else to do over break, you should totally read you some Meg Cabot! Or check out her blog, she's hilarious.

    If you've never checked him out, read some Neil Gaiman books. My favorite author of all time. :) He's the best. I aspire to be like him. I personally suggest, as your first book, Anansi Boys or Neverwhere. Either one. :) They're good.

Fake

I feel like a lot of times when going through blogger, I'm always pushing the boundaries a bit. A lot of blogs seem to always be happy and awesome and they just won this free product from someone and it's great! And then, I'm over here in my little corner of the blogosphere wondering, hey, should I actually write about this? Is this something that you just pretend like it never happens? Am I the only one this happens to? My favorite moments are when I find someone cutting down those walls and sharing what life is actually like. That they have zits. That they don't have the perfect relationship and baby. That they've struggled with mental health. That they're secretly gross like me. (I took a quiz on buzz feed about how secretly gross are you, and I got pretty gross. In the guise of not being fake, I am sharing this fact with you all!) When I find those blog posts, I instantly feel a connection with that person and will automatically follow them on their life j...

Liebster-ing it up!

Funny story. A few days ago I was reading all the blogs I follow like I usually do. And of course I read  Jana's  blog and read about how she had won the Liebster award. I had no idea what it was, so I read her post full of fun facts, and for everyone I kept nodding my head going, I DO THAT TOO! Then today I re-read her blog, and realized that she'd nominated me for the Liebster award as well! It was a very exciting moment. Thank you! So I guess this is how it works, I think, I'm new to this whole thing. I totally just stole this off Jana's blog ;) "The Liebster Blog Award is given to bloggers by bloggers. It is a way to acknowledge each other and say 'you're doing a great job.' It is for blogs with 200 or less followers, so it's also a great way to spread the word about smaller blogs & get them more readers/ followers! When you receive the award, you post 11 random facts about yourself and answer 11 questions from the person who nominated y...

Christmas Lights

It’s funny having a baby and then trying to do things. I’ve noticed over the last year that I’ve gotten an I Can’t do that sort of attitude. We can’t do that because Aaron will cry and we’ll get cranky and so on. I’m really trying to work on that.  My anxiety out in public is much worse too. Now I have two people to protect not just myself. The library definitely changed how I look at places and I wish it hadn’t.  Sammy really wanted to go to a Christmas village downtown but I was too overwhelmed by all the logistics. So we compromised and went to one near us. It was so much fun! It was cold out but not too too bad. Aaron loves looking at the Christmas lights at our apartments, and he really loved these ones. It was so much more fun trying to look at these things through his eyes.  He was also fascinated by the mini Santa and Mrs. Clause at grandma’s house.  I’m so glad we went and can’t wait to go next year when he’s walking:)
