Book # 22

Over the weekend, I finished my 22nd book, Let it Snow, by John Green, Maureen Johnson, and Lauren Myracle. This is a book that has three different stories, written by three different authors, but each story overlaps characters as well as setting. There are three winter romance stories about young love, but each love story is about a different kind of love. It's also interesting to read about how theses three stories fit together, and how the characters are connected and brought together.
A great find for $1 at the warehouse sale.
I really enjoyed this winter romance novel for a change. It was cute, quaint, and heart-warming to read during these cold times. I'm also a sucker for a good romantic comedy, and it's very funny in certain parts. The characters are very real, and although all of them are from different writers, they are very believable. Each story is about a different kind of love story. The first is about realizing the love that you have, may not be the love that you need or want. The second story is about finding love in new places, and how people can really change. Finally, the third story is about loving yourself, and how it's easier for others to love you when you love yourself. I love John Green already, and if you haven't read Looking For Alaska, then read it now!! That is a life changing novel, it will shake you to your core. The other two authors are new for me, but have published many books as well. For those of you looking for an enjoyable, easy, and fun winter read, this is for you.

Remembering 9/11....

       I just wanted to say thank you to all those people out there who serve our country, and protect us day and night.        9 years ago, I was sitting in my 7th grade study hall, when we heard people running through the halls, thats when my teacher went out to investigate and he found out what was going on. He came back into the classroom and turned on our tv. What we saw was horrifying, surreal, and very very sad. I saw the second world trade center tower fall, and I saw people jumping out of the building, and I saw debris crashing to the ground in NYC. As a 7th grader, I was in shock, to me the U.S. was impenetrable. I really never thought that something like that could happen to my country. I was shocked, appalled, and confused. I realize now how naive I was, and how my judgement and view on life was forever changed that day.        I really have no idea whether it was the planes that knocked the to...

How Rude!

As of recently, I was hired and took a Customer Service Associate position at Lowe's. Which at first, I thought was just really a glorified cashier. As it turns out, we do a lot more than just ring customers out with their purchases. As a customer service associate, we ring customers out, we handle customer complaints, requests, problems, inquiries, we handle the phones, we find, print, and call about customer's order that were special ordered, or an internet order, or just ordered. We do a lot, and sometimes it gets very busy and crazy. What I really want to write about concerning my job was how to me it seems that people have just lost their ability to be pleasant, nice, and gracious to the people they are buying products from. I had so many customers be rude to me today, that it got me wondering, (and using Full House phrases), "Why are we so rude?" I know that I don't have a very important job, but I am still a person that should be treated with respect wh...

Book # 38 Water for Elephants

Thanks to a co-worker who lent me the book, and friends and family that told me how amazing this book was, I finally read, Water for Elephants , by Sara Gruen. I have been hearing rave reviews from friends, family, coworkers, online sites, and other blogs about this book, and I have to say that I agree whole-heartedly. This is a wonderful book about love, life, the circus, and how connected people can become with each other and animals in such a short time. It's a stunning tale of the carnival and circus people of a time long ago, and how their lives revolved around the circus, the performers, the workmen, the animals, and the crowds. I loved all the characters in this book, and it was really interesting going from the past to the present with the main character. The love between Marlena and Jacob is so wonderful, and pure that it's a great part of this book. I also love how involved and invested Jacob becomes with the animals and some people in the circus. It's a tale of...
