Blah Blah Blah
This is DAY 3 of my purgatory sentence. Allow me to explain... for my tech theatre class I am required to work backstage one of the school plays. This wouldn't be so bad (I actually really enjoy doing tech work for plays) but it is Monday thru Saturday from 6-midnight for three weeks. This means I have almost zero time for Dan, work, homework, and Gossip Girl. It is even more frustrating because for this same class I am required to do 40 hours of lab work in the theatre shop and I have to attend a 2 hour lab every week on top of that. Nothing can double count. Needless to say, I only have 6 hours and they are running out of lab hours available. URG! This month I also have so much going on in all my other classes that I'm starting to worry about when I will be able to do any of it. I know I shouldn't complain but it just sucks. I have tried to explain that I have to work but I have been told that if I miss a day I will nearly fail this class. IT IS ONLY A 3 CREDIT CLASS! Sadly it is required for my minor so I just have to tough it out but I think these are really unfair requirements. Oh how I wish this semester was already over.

Nothing Better than a Good Book
I love to read. When I find a good book, I don't put it down until I finish and then I read it over and over again. My problem is, I have a few series that I love and I tend not to branch out and find other books. On my list of excellent books are:
- all the Harry Potter books (JK Rowling)
- The Twilight Saga, (Stephenie Meyer)
- Confessions of a Shopaholic, Remember Me?, The Undomestic Goddess, Can You Keep A Secret?(Sophie Kinsella)
- Confessions of Georgia Nicholson (Louise Rennison)
- The Chronicles of Narnia (C.S. Lewis)
And now, I have more to add. THE HUNGER GAMES series by Suzanne Collins. There are two books out in the series so far, and more to come. My sister told me about them so I finally decided I should give them a chance. I read both books in two days because they are so unbelievably good, I just couldn't stop. If you are looking for something to read- this is it. It has suspense, romance, action; the whole package. The first book is called The Hunger Games and the second is Catching Fire.
I am so happy to have a new series to wait impatiently every year for the next book to come out!

The Rise of the UNDEAD
Halloween! We had a ZOMBIE themed halloween this year. The Thursday before we went and shot our pumpkins! It was awesome, even tho it was freezing cold outside. We went with Ryan and Whittney and Whitt's little brother Aaron, and his friend Lindee. We had a whole course set up with zombies, baby zombie pumpkins, and soda cans to shoot. My camera died so I didn't get all the cool pics but here are some!
And here are what our pumpkins looked like after we masacred them: 
This is one that the boys put tomato juice in... looks really gross!We brought our costumes and shot real bullet holes in them so we could be ligit zombies.
Halloween night we had to work but it was okay because we got to dress up! We were disgustingly bloody and dead looking- just as zombies should be. I had a few tables who were very obviously grossed out and did not enjoy their server looking like I did. It was classic. We just walked around taking pictures with everyone we worked with. It was one of the funnest times I've had at work.
Now I really must make a shout out to our flag football team this year. We were ranked 2 but lost during tournament. We should have won it all. It was a blast tho! GO CONTENDERS!
