Wow, I stopped blogging for a very long time!
I just finished reading John Green's Looking For Alaska.
It was very very good. It does contain some controversial scenes that involve sex, alchohol, cigarettes and swearing. Many people made too big a deal of this, saying that it was porn and it was being marketed to children. As a 16 year old reader (The same age as the characters in the books), I found it relatable, and nothing I hadn't heard of before. John Argued in his video blog (visit the Vlogbrothers on youtube) that the scenes were not meant to be arousing or corrupting, but they were there to make a point. And a valid one at that. He contrasts the awkward and empty physical relationship between the characters with the more intimate emotional one, and shows that emotional interaction can be much more valuable. Never-the-less, it is well written, an emotional and lovely story, and I loved it. My only complaint is that it ended.
Buy it on Amazon, or at your local book store.
Scott (Visit Scottimort on youtube) and I are going to be doing a video entitled "The Steep Decline of Teenage Society: Causes and Effects".
It should be Interesting yet comedic.
I have a doctors appointment today and then Im going to get my nails done... And then were making a video.
So, yeah.
And also, you know what's funny? I watched the Eclipse Trailer, the next installment in everyone's favorite vampire series. It comes out on Brandon (my boyfriend, if you didn't know)'s birthday. HAH.
Basically, heres how it is:
New Moon: Bella and Edward are in a struggle about whether or not Bella should become a vampire. Jacob is in love with bella, and wants her to chose him over Edward. Victoria want revenge on Edward, and is trying to kill Bella. The Volturi decide that bella cannot live unless someone turns her into a vampire.
Eclipse: Bella and Edward are still arguing about whether or not bella should become a vampire. Jacob still loves Bella, and still thinks she should pick him over edward. because he's better for her. Victoria is still trying to kill Bella. The volturi still want Bella dead or undead.
So, tell me, is there really any plot line here?
'Nuff said.
