My poor, poor little blog. I'm feeling rather guilty for not having posted anything for almost two weeks. I'm sure no one else noticed the absence, but I feel bad. Poor bloggy. All alone on the internet, not a friend in the world, without even a recent post to keep it company. Woe is my blog.
Now then. That's enough of that. On to bigger, happier things. I shall now proceed to give an update on all that has happened the past two weeks worth noting. Which isn't much. Hence the lack of blogging. But we shall try.
1. I Finished Les Miserables.
I did it, guys. I finally did it. It only took me four months, but who's counting, right? I am SO glad I just sucked it up and finished it. It was fabulous. Absolutely fabulous. New favorite book? I think yes. That should be a hint that this book really is great, because it's kicking my Jane Austen fav out of the Number One Position, and we all know how wonderful Jane Austen is. This book is a biggin. It's not an easy read. But man, it is worth every page, every sentence, and, dare I say it, every word. I almost want to read it again, like, right now. But I won't. That would be foolishness. I have other fish to fry.
2. I Rock At Fantasy Football.
I have a new love in my life. Its name is football. I don't even just tolerate or like it anymore. I freaking love it. Who woulda thought? I love sports. Saying those words still feels weird, but there you go. Now back to Fantasy Football. I love it. It is so much fun! My team is the Green Lantern Corps (yeah, be jealous. Be freaking jealous because that name ROCKS). My quarterback is Eli Manning. Who I love. Eli is my home fry (let it be known that a copyright for that phrase is in the works, so please, hands off. I know it's literary genius, but don't go stealing it). And I also have the Giants defense, which is great, because they're a pretty good defense, and also my FAVORITE team (I have a favorite team!). Except here's my dilemma. Well, actually there are two dilemmas. But this is the first. I have two defenses. The Giants and the 49ers. Both are good. But I keep playing the wrong defense. Without fail, the defense I put in does an okay job, but the defense on the bench kills it. We're talking a 20-25 point difference here. Which, for all you not-Fantasy Football players out there, is a HUGE problem. Second dilemma is the fact that I should be second rank overall, but I'm third. That bites.
3. The Jazz Season Is Starting.
Gah! I have been waiting for this for forever! I'm beyond excited. They've already played three preseason games (2-1, with a win against the Lakers! I know, I know, my dad keeps telling me that the preseason really doesn't mean anything, but still. I love when the Lakers lose. Especially to my Jazz. That's what's up, Kobe and Nash. That is what's up.) And only 16 days until the first game of the regular season! I got work off and everything! So while all you people go to your costume parties and watch your scary movies, I will be watching the Jazz game. Boom. So excited.
4. The Semester Is Almost Halfway Over.
I'm pretty excited for this semester to end. Not that I'm not liking my classes or anything. They're all going really well, and I actually kinda like them all. But when the semester ends, it will be December. And we all know what that means. Hello Christmas! And Les Mis! I can't quite decide which I'm more excited for ...
5. We Got An Xbox And Kinnect.
It's a blast guys. A blast. Except last Monday, I was a little over zealous with the Fruit Ninja, and I had super sore arms and back for the next two days. Pretty pathetic. But it's all good. I also got Project Gotham Racing 4 (the newest version of PGR, which was my favorite Xbox game until my dear brothers broke the Xbox and it was given to the DI) for ten bucks on Amazon. Including shipping. What a steal, right? I love good prices on Amazon. It's the best. And while I'm not quite up to par yet on my racing, it's starting to come back. Which is good, because that's basically the only game I'm good at. Also, we got a game called Kinnectimals. It's basically a Chia pet sort of game, except much much cooler and more technologically advanced. I have a lion. His name is Marco. He's quite dashing.
So yeah.
That's it for the un[OFFICIAL] update.
Oh PS: I cut my hair. I went for the fringe bangs. I'm not sure I like them yet. I think they'll take some getting used to. But I don't hate them, so that's a good start, right? I also went just a teeny bit darker and a teeny bit redder. Sort of chestnut-ish. That's the word my haircut lady used to describe it, so we'll go with that.
