Not So Lucky Number Seven.
Okay, so it’s 07/07/07. So? Nobody got all hyped up when it was 06/06/06! Okay, well I guess people had a reason not to be happy about Devil Day, but do people really think they’ll get lucky just because of a few numbers?
I don’t think God takes that into account, but I can see it now: “Hmm, you know, July 7 is coming up, so I’d better do something special and heal all the sick puppies in the world!”
Really, though. I’ll give a dollar to every charity on earth if at least one really lucky thing happens today. (If something does, leave a comment about it so I can check that out and start forking over money that I don’t have).
If you haven’t already guessed, seven has never really been that good to me (I’ve always been more of a twenty-seven person myself). Why, you ask? Well, I have to take seven classes per quarter at school (not a good thing) and they always say it wakes seven days to get over a cold (not a good thing, either). So why are people suddenly betting their life savings on so-called Lucky Number Seven?
I don’t think I’m that stupid. Maybe it’s just me.
Wow, I didn’t link anything in this post! That’s different. But I updated my FanFiction.net thing, and if you love Twilight (by Stephenie Meyer), you’re gonna like these:
| Cullen Chat 1 This is sort of like what it would be like if the Cullens all had laptops in their bedrooms. I understand that Esme’s character is a little [a lot] off, but just imagine she’s high or something. This is my first fanfiction, and I wrote it in French class.

| Cullen Chat 2 You asked for it, so you got it. Cullen Chat 2. What’s this mysterious secret everyone’s keeping for Edward? And since when is Bella in the room? Read and Review please, so I can write more. Esme is less high in this one. Promise.

| Cullen Chat 3 Wow, you REALLY asked for it this time, and you got it! CULLEN CHAT 3! If you’re wondering, the other Cullen’s are out getting something rather nasty out of Emmett’s pants during this one. And who is this mysterious stranger lurking in the house? R&R plz!

I really can’t help being naturally funny. If you’ve read those, you’ll get what I mean. I’m going to be out of town until Thursday this week, so miss me please. That’s all for now.

The Greatest Books and Music. Ever.
Before I say anything, I will admit that I am an extremely biased person, and I’m into hyperbolic statements, but I got your attention, didn’t I? My point is, when I say “Greatest”, what I really mean is “Pretty good”.
First, I will summarize, like the genius I am. Then I will list like the little kid I can be.
Let’s start with music, because I’m listening to my iPod right now, and that’s incentive enough to keep my fingers typing for a least a good five minutes. Most of the songs I download are directly tied to the 10-second samples I get from flipping through radio stations and watching So You Think You Can Dance. To make things easier for us all, I will skip to listing the Top 25 Most Played playlist on my iPod:
- Vindicated – Dashboard Confessional
- How To Touch a Girl – JoJo
- Dr. Evil – They Might Be Giants
- No One – Aly & AJ
- Honestly – Cartel
- When You Were Young – The Killers
- Face Down – The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus
- Gomenasai – t.A.T.u.
- Never Far Behind – Aly & AJ
- Going Crazy – Ashley Tisdale
- How To Save a Life – The Fray
- Collapsed – Aly & AJ
- Into the Ocean – Blue October
- Le Chemin – KYO
- Meant to Live – Switchfoot
- This is Your Life – Switchfoot
- Istanbul (Not Constantinople) – They Might Be Giants
- Everything You Want – Vertical Horizon
- Over It – Jordan Pruitt
- You Found Me – Kelly Clarkson
- Another Day – Adam Pascal & Rosario Dawson (RENT Soundtrack)
- Dancing – Elisa
- Umbrella – Rihanna ft. Jay-Z
- Rockstar – Nickelback
- Strongtower – Kutless
I’m not going to bother putting links to all those songs, because… no. I’m just not doing it.
Now let’s away to books. This year, I’ve gotten more and more interested in books for no apparent reason. Actually, there is a reason. It’s because in most of the books I’ve been reading, the leading male is hot, hot, hot (cough, Edward Cullen, cough). He makes all kinds of things fun to do, like reading. So here’s my short book list. I so great, I’ll even identify the cute guy in each one:
- Twilight by Stephenie Meyer (Edward Cullen)
- New Moon by Stephenie Meyer (Edward Cullen)
- Uglies by Scott Westerfeld (David)
- Pretties by Scott Westerfeld (Zane)
- Specials by Scott Westerfeld (Zane)
- Peeps by Scott Westerfeld (Cal Thompson)
- A Certain Slant of Light by Laura Whitcomb (James Deardon/Billy Blake)
- Pretty Little Liars by Sara Shepard (Ezra Fitz)
- Flawless by Sara Shepard (Toby Cavanaugh)
- Private by Kate Brian (Thomas Pearson)
Okay, so now you people have a little insight into my mind, and what I think is awesomely awesome.* And the added bonus is that I feel proud of myself for adding all those links.
Aren’t I great?
* I understand that “Awesomely awesome” does not count as Quirky-speak either.
