~Quote of the Day~

"The world was a terrible place, cruel, pitiless, dark as a bad dream. Not a good place to live. Only in books could you find pity, comfort, happiness - and love. Books loved anyone who opened them, they gave you security and friendship and didn't ask anything in return; they never went away, never, not even when you treated them badly." -InkHeart

Ummm . . .

Anyone know any crazy color names they'd like to share with me? Just something weird on my mind :p

Darn!!!!!

I already missed one day!! How could something like this happen??

What I've been up too . . .

Hello there :) I know I haven't posted on here in a while. Swim Team has started back up and I've also been chilling with friends. But I promise that I will try to post on here every day during the month of June :)

Held Back . . .

"I need to break free,

Of these chains that hold me.

I need to get out,

Of this box that has no key.

I need to break free..."

You'll get there . . .

A dream hidden behind fear.
I know you wish you were there,
It doesn’t seem like it’s fair."

It's all gonna be okay . . .

Another music video of Jordan's I was in. We did it back a few months ago. The song is by Jenna Lynne and we did have permission to use it.

Tangled . . .

Oh my goodness! That movie was so good! It made me want to explode with happiness. Hehe yeah, that may sound weird but oh well. :)

Just . . .

Ugh I just got over a cold, and now I have to re-strengthen my voice! I should be recording some songs (I hope!) within the next few months :) I'll keep ya posted. Man, I really wanna record!!

Mother's Day . . .

I just watched Peter Pan and thought I'd post 

this in honor of Mother's Day...

One of my favorite Lord of the Rings quotes . . .

"I wish the Ring had never come to me, I wish none of this had happened,"

"So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us."

-The Fellowship of the Ring

Song in my head . . .

You know when you're trying to do your schoolwork and a little tune pops into your head and then you can't get any work done? I know the feeling. Ugh why does Vanilla Twilight have to be such a catchy song? :)

send me one my way...

This is the newest music video I was in. It features me (the older girl in the pink ruffled top), Jordan (the director, editor, and writer. The other older girl. Jordan is amazing!!! Her blog and youtube are here ----> http://tisonlyjordan.blogspot.com/ http://www.youtube.com/user/GJordanG I'm also in a few of her other videos there on youtube :D), Carrie (The younger me), and Hannah (the younger Jordan). One person you did not see in this video is Ansley. She co-directed and wrote a lot of this video. She also filmed everything, and she's in Jordan's music video Alice (as Alice) and the video Maximum Ride (as Max).

Writer's Block . . .

"You used to be much more...'muchier.'

You've lost your muchness..."

-Alice in Wonderland  

You know the one thing a person like me just hates? Writer's Block! Ugh that time of day when you want to write, you need to write, but you can't write? It feels as if you will bust with feelings if you don't get your words down on paper. But what do I do when I feel like I'm gonna explode? I open my windows, and just stare out of them till I feel better. Or I call up my friends who are at home and hang with them. Usually after I do one of these things, I feel much better and probably get a few lines down, and if I'm lucky, the whole song.

You know what also drives me insane? An unfinished song. But that's another topic for another time :)

Train of thought...

"I'm waiting for a train,

A train that'll take me far away...

Where the sun doesn't stop shining...

My world doesn't exist in your reality..."

Don't think about it...

As you fall, it doesn't matter where you go...

Find you Neverland, and wave goodbye."

I see the sun...

After a week full of rain, blue skies and the sunshine are truly a blessing.

I am blessed...

The Lord has blessed me with many things,

-The Sun (without it, there would be no flowers or warm days to go to the beach)

-The Stars (without them, what would we look at at night?)

-Cookies (especially peanut butter)

-My Family (i love them and my life would be completely different without them. my parents are the best, they're there for me when i need them and set a Godly example for my life. My brothers may be annoying, but i love them anyway)

-My Friends (I am blessed with the most amazing friends)

-Rain (what would we drink?)

-A home (where would i sleep?)

Rain helps me write...

"My heart feels, the way it does after a heavy rain,
The way it makes me feel... like I don’t have anything to say.
No blue sky... dull clouds.
Nothing to brighten my spirits, just grayness all around."

No one thinks twice about the wind...

They can hear it, but they can not see me.
They can see the...
But don’t understand all the energy it takes."

Review: Sent

Sent by Margaret Peterson Haddix

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


This book didn't get to me like the first book Found did. Sent is the second book of The Missing series. I found book one to be very interesting and exciting to read. This one on the other hand was quite lifeless and it seemed like the author was trying too hard to continue the storyline. Honestly, when Margaret Peterson Haddix comes out with book three, I will have to read it. It's just terrible to start a book series and not finish it. Just be warned that if you read the first book Found you ARE going to have to read the next one. It's just a state of fact. You'll want to know what happens next. Just be prepared not to like Sent. But hey, you may like it, you may not. But I'm not saying it wasn't a good book. Yes, I was disappointed, but everyone has different tastes. It was okay, but not amazing.
