Daniel Radcliffe is attractive.

First of all, I just want to point out that it has been forever since I've updated this... and I've been trying to come up with things to talk about just so I can update this. Now I have finally come up with something!


I'm currently reading Forever (Book three in the Wolves of Mercy Falls trilogy) by Maggie Stiefvater. Yes, I did read the first two, Shiver and Linger.


The first two books were fantastic and I definitely recommend them if you haven't read them. If you enjoy werewolves, and amazing love stories, this is the series for you!


Anyway, I'm currently half way done with the last book, and I just want to say that it is still amazing. Usually in the last book of a series, everything goes down hill. So far, this book is still good. However, as I said, I'm only half way done with it. I highly doubt this book is not going to be good, though.


Once I have completed Forever, I will begin reading The Woman in Black.


Yes, The Woman in Black. As in the movie starring (the amazingly handsome) Daniel Radcliffe that comes out February 3. It was a book first. I know this because the book came out in 1983... and it has been a play in the UK for the past twenty years (Yes, it took twenty years for it to get to America. It's kind of depressing, isn't it?).


I want to read it and then go watch the movie. Because books are almost always better than movies. Unless of course, the movie is starring Daniel Radcliffe (who is very attractive).


Oh, and I don't care what you think: Daniel Radcliffe is a very attractive man. Seriously, just look at him.

Friday the 13th

In just a few days we will see the first Friday the 13th of the new year. I just want to take a second to point out that there are three Friday the 13's this year. Three. Don't you think it's a little strange, that in the year 2012 (the year the world is supposedly going to end) there are three Friday the 13's. I think this is rather strange. So, I want to talk about this interesting superstition a little bit.

Paraskevidekatriaphobics: The fear of Friday the 13th (Yes, it's a real thing). Suffer from this? So do 17 to 20 million people in the United States.

Friday the 13 can happen at least once and up to three times a year (as is the case this year. With it landing in January, April and July). It's very rarely that it happens more than three times a year.

There is no known origin for this superstition, but there are many different theories such as; 12 is the number of completeness, and if there are 13 guests at a dinner, one will die by the end of the year (At the Last Supper, there were exactly thirteen people, and by the end of the year Christ was crucified. The crucifixion itself took place on a Friday).

Now that we have had a brief history lesson, I have one question:
Do you believe in Friday the 13th?

Whether you believe or not, I advise you to stay away from ladders, black cats, glass, and salt. Actually, just avoid everything, just stay in bed. Who knows, maybe getting out of bed is going to set something in motion, ultimately causing you to get hit with bad luck for the rest of your life (Final Destination, anyone?).

Please, please, I implore you. Be cautious this Friday the 13th.

Happy New Year!

So, I know this is a little late, but this is first chance I've had to sit down and write anything.


New Year's Eve, I went over to my friends house and we had a party. We watched movies, played some games, ate great food. It was awesome. We stayed up until almost five thirty in the morning... I slept until almost one in the afternoon. I just want to say right now, that I have never slept in that late in my whole life. Seriously. It was weird to wake up in the afternoon. I didn't get home until almost seven thirty yesterday, and once I was home I sat around with my parents and watched TV.


So, yes. This is the first moment where I'm not doing anything else. I want to take this moment to talk about my new years resolutions (I didn't give them much thought... actually I didn't think about them at all).


1. Lose weight. This is a resolution I have every year. This year I'm actually going to try and lose some weight. I'm not saying that I'm fat or anything, but I would like to lose a little bit.


2. Get a job. Mainly because I need the money... and I'm eighteen years old. I feel like I need a job.


3. Go to more concerts. I went to two concerts last year. That's the most I've ever been to in one year. This year I want to go to twice that, at least. With Warped Tour being the main one. I've never been before, and I think this is the perfect year to go. Also: Meet Alex Gaskarth, and hug him.


4. Write more. Maybe I'll write a book or something...


5. Live through 2012. I don't want to die on December 21, 2012. I mean, who does?


So, what are your New Year's Resolutions? I bet they're better than mine. I just came up with mine right now, as I was typing them. Maybe next year I'll take some time to think about it a little more... Maybe that should be another one of my resolutions...
