I love talking on skype.

I don't understand why Skype isn't more popular than MSN, I mean it's less cluttered, less ads, better sound quality when you use the mic, you can talk on your mic with like 24 other people at the same time and it flashes and it's cool!! :D 
Anyways, I'm blabbing because I'm pretending that I know what to write but I don't... and I'm just trying to fulfill your wishes on reading what I write and 'cause you have nothing interesting to do (if you did, you wouldn't be reading these boring posts...)

I'll post more maybe later because I'm talking to my friend Rachel (on Skype) and my attention is mostly on her xD

Tempted is getting released... TOMORROW!!!

I swear this is waaaay too exciting news. 
The House of Night series is simply amazing and the newest book is getting released tomorrow and I simply can't wait!!!
This little devil is whispering in my ear (already) to read it ASAP but I've got like many other books waiting patiently on my list and on my shelves.... (and in my school bag...)
I'm reading To Kill a Mockingbird for English class and no way I'm complaining, it's just really good.

THEN I have "Bonheur d'occasion" to read for French class and it's hell. The most boring book you can find on earth. Therefore I'm failing all the tests the teacher gives us about this book. We have like a week to read 100 pages. That could be easy. Only if it was a GOOD book.
Good books like The House of Night series... or like Eragon (the whole Inheritence Cycle) or like.... my sister's keeper... are read fast without complaint and I rather enjoy falling asleep at 3 in the morning over those books.
Easy-to-read books such as Twilight... or like... Goosebumps books... or like little fairytale stories... are finished and digested pretty fast.

but BAD, LONG, BORING, FULL-OF-TOUGH-WORDS books are just not my type (typically given by french teachers... MY french teachers actually..) They're my worst nightmare.

Or maybe they're bad, long and boring because they're full of tough words. but for real they're good books if you understood every word and expression, but I doubt that would happen before hell freezes over.

That was my rant.

Back to happy things. 
I can't wait for the book release tomorrow!!
I love life anyway.

So. Much. Homework. Dammit.

Aha. Wasting my time surfing the internet. It's Thanksgiving in Canada. Then I realized I had school tomorrow. As I open my untouched schoolbag since I brought it home Friday... my heart quickens. I opened my agenda and gasped as I saw the list of homework due tomorrow. Crap. I'm doomed for the evening. *Hits my head on a hard surface* Damn the teachers who give homework for the long weekends.

Happy Thanksgiving anyhow. Hope you had good turkey :D
