My rhyming good just yet? My brain and tongue just met, and they ain't friends so far. My words don't travel far, they tangle in my hair and tend to go no where. The consonants and vowels. The consequence of sounds. - Regina Spektor
Say it with a Sean Connery accent, it sounds better. Not that it doesn't sound good with an American accent (I just had to look up Sean Connery to make sure he wasn't American - how embarrassing). Doesn't it sound intriguing? The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer, by Michelle Hodkin. Well, I thought it sounded intriguing, which is why I bought it (in hardback!) from Barnes and Noble (I had never even heard of it before) approximately (by approximately, I mean exactly) 5 days ago. And finished it in a matter of hours. It was indeed intriguing. And suspenseful. And romantic. (When I blog stalk people, and I come across book reviews they posted, I skip them. So no worries, this is all I'm saying on the matter of Mara Dyer). Here's one link, and two links; go look it up. It's awesome. (A word of caution - there is some pretty horrible language at times (now I feel guilty for admitting that I liked it...))
I work at a school called Spectrum Academy. It's an autistic charter school in North Salt Lake. I love it. The kids are all so awesome. I was working in a third grade classroom today, and a bunch of the kids pulled out these things called "speed stackers". Basically, it's a set of like, 9 cups (that was a total guess) and you stack them and unstack them. And you see who can do it the fastest. So naturally, when I got home today, I looked up speed stacking on Youtube. Seriously, who knew stacking cups could be so cool?
Also, check out this lovely blog. I have kind of fallen in love with it... A lot. Andalsopinterest.
Now, go to this blog and check out what I did this weekend (while in Logan, the city that holds my heart (weird, I know)).
