So so so so so so so sorry!!!! (Fionnuala)

Hi, hi, hi! So I have had a new April resolution! I am going to make my best effort to post at LEAST twice a week. My life has become super busy, I haven't been able to read or watch tv or have any free time.

UPDATE: I AM CURRENTLY READING MS. PEREGRINE'S HOME FOR PECUILIAR CHILDREN!!!!

Yes I know verrry exciting. ;)

YAY WE ALL KNOW WHAT FIONNUALA IS READING OH MY LORD


UPDATE: I HAVE JUST FINISHED SEASON FOUR OF BABY DADDY ON NETFLIX AND SEASON FIVE ISN'T ON IT YET SO I'M PROABABLY GOING TO START WATCHING PRETTY LITTLE LIARS AGAIN! YAYAYYAYA EVERYONE KNOWS MY CURRENT STATUS. 



OK so now we have to go present this blog..... ughhhhhh
Welll that was a bust. I'm pretty sure no one paid any attention to us whatsoever. Or we were being laughed at I'm really not sure.☺

ANYWHO SHOUTOUT TO SERENA WHO GOT INTO A REAALLLLLLYYYYY GOOD HIGH SCHOOL! CONGRATS!
I'm so sorry about the gifs guys I just love them.  



Book Recommendations!!! (Serena)

Hey, Serena here! Just stopping by to make a post about all the books I recommend! haven't posted in a while omg I had a huge list so I had to narrow it down by a lot lol….

Books can make us laugh out loud, drown in all the feels (this has happened to me way to may times tbh), and simply want to tear our hair out in frustration. Reading can make you escape into another world told by someone who isn't yourself for once, discovering the true depths of friendship, family, love, sacrifice, bravery, and so so much more. But finding the right book that can make you feel this way is sometimes pretty hard… that's why I've decided to make it easier for you by giving you a personal list of some of my favorite books of all time!

In no particular order

1. I'll Give You The Sun 
by Jandy Nelson



This book was seriously the cutest thing ever. Well, in some parts. Other times it was dark, captivating, sad, and powerful. I read it over the summer, and I couldn't stop reading it until I was finished. It's definitely a page-turner.




2. Pride and Prejudice
by Jane Austen



Okay, now you're all probably thinking: Ew, an old boring book. And I'll admit, that's what I thought at first as well. But seriously, get that mindset out of your head. Classics aren't always boring. This is definitely a must read. Once I started I couldn't take my eyes off of the pages.

3. Simon Vs. The Homo Sapiens Agenda
by Becky Albertalli



Did I already say that another book was the cutest thing ever? I change my mind. This book right here is definitely the cutest thing I had read in a while. Just seriously go read it.

4. The Giver
by Lois Lowry

Another famous classic right here—you may have already read it, but it's such a good book you should just read it again.

5. Harry Potter
by J. K. Rowling 



Now if you haven't read this series, I will seriously shun you for life. Just read it. Harry Potter was my childhood. Read it before it's too late. *cough* Sammi *cough* 

 6. Lunar Chronicle Series
by Marissa Meyer



Here's a book series recommendation from Fionnuala! She has read this series and absolutely loved it. I haven't read it myself, but I definitely think it looks like an interesting book right from the cover. 

And.... lucky number 7!

7. An Ember In the Ashes
by Sabaa Tahir


 So I actually read this as an independent reading book this year... and I absolutely loved it. It's like a perfect mix of all the dystopian books I've ever read. It's amazing. 

So I'll be doing this weekly (hopefully!) See you next time!

Highschool... :/ (Fionnuala)

So we four sparkly dolphins are going to high school next year. ARGHHHHHHHH.............. I'm so scared!!!!! ayayayay
^^This is me walking into the first day of high school. The bus signifies everything that's coming my way :)

I'm personally very excited for this grand life experience, but I don't know that high school is excited for me...in the right way. 

I mean I have a RIGHT to be horrified for high school! I am not working with the people who make all these false realities of high school (I mean they could be real, but from what I know I don't think they are). 
Take or example Mean Girls and High School Musical and Twilight
I really am not sure if any of these movies are accurate. At all. Okay maybe the food?

MY STATUS CURRENTLY REMAINS AT THE BELOW GIF
I am so scared about every single detail for high school. EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. 

Like if I take the wrong class have I messed up my life or will college think I should have taken that elective instead of this one or what not to say or anything! 

Here is a list of synonyms describing me right now. 
righten, scare, terrify, petrify, paralyze, alarm, panic, terrorize, fill with fear, scare someone out of their wits, frighten the living daylights out of, make someone's hair stand on end, make someone's blood run cold, give someone the creeps; 

archaic affright

I have searched every single Wiki How, Yahoo Answer, Web Article, and Magazine Article about what high school is really like\. 

I may seem to be over reacting, well I'm a naturally anxious person going into something I know nothing about. 





Anyways thanks for letting me VENNNNTTTTT hopefully non existent readers... :)

I know it sounds like I'm not but I'm also 
SOOOOOOOOOOO EXCCIIIITTTEEEDDDD

        Goodbye and until next time.
