HAVE YOU HEARD?? OH MY GOSH I AM COMPLETELY EXCITED ABOUT THIS!! IT HAS ONLY BEEN A WEEK SINCE I FINISHED THE GOLDEN LILY AND THE NEXT BOOK HAS A COVER ALREADY!!!

THIS IS FREAKING GORGEOUS AND IT LOOKS LIKE THEY HAVE ADRIAN BACK ON THE COVER RIGHT WHERE HE BELONGS (I think he’s the one on the right, it looks like the same model from Bloodlines who is Adrian—I have her app and the picture for Adrian is the same one on the Bloodlines cover). FEBRUARY 13, 2013 IS TOO FAR AWAY. THIS BOOK NEEDS TO COME OUT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’m sitting here, on my nice comfy bed, watching the South Carolina Gamecocks-Arkansas Razorback baseball game (GO COCKS!) on ESPN 3 (would be on an actual TV if I felt like getting up) and I start thinking of an idea. This idea is something I’ve been thinking about for the past week. In fact, I’ve been thinking about it for a little while now. The idea, you ask? Well, it’s to re-read the Vampire Academy series by Richelle Mead. I don’t really like to re-read books because I already know what is going to happen in them, but I haven’t read this particular series since the books were coming out. So, it’s been a fairly long time since I’ve read the first book. I’ve been in the biggest mood to read this series since Tuesday night…well, to be honest, since Wednesday morning around 2:30 when I finished The Golden Lily. What do you think? Should I re-read this series?

I finished this amazing book last night. I actually loved the ending, well, not the very end, but the events that did happen in the last chapter. All I’m going to say about it is I LOVE ADRIAN!

The title means a lot of things at the moment.

Well, to start out, it may have only been the first 5 strikes, but, well, I was still close to a 300…again. In the sixth frame I threw a perfect shot and left a stone 7 pin (which I then missed). Over the course of the past year and a half I have shot (in order) 277, 279, a front 8 for a 254, 276, and  a 288. It’s really starting to upset me more and more that I cannot get my 300. I have worked so hard for it and I still have yet to earn my ring. I have also worked hard for a 700 series, that’s all, just a 700 series, and I still have yet to get that. My high set is 684 and my high game is that 288. I’m sorry if you’re reading this and don’t really understand what I’m talking about, but bowling is my life. It always has been and always will be. I am part of a bowling family. My mom, dad, step-mom, step-dad, half-brother, mom’s parents, and step-mom’s parents all bowl. And I cannot forget about my bowling family, from my teammates to my competitors. We all even feed each other on an early tournament morning.

The second thing that this title is about is the book I am currently taking a quick little break from to share my thoughts with you all. Don’t make fun, but one of my favorite series is the Vampire Academy series by Richelle Mead. Well, Rose’s story ended about a year ago (has it really been that long already???) and Richelle has continued on in this world telling Sydney’s story after everything that has happened with Rose in the Bloodlines series. I am currently reading the second book, The Golden Lily, and am less than a hundred pages from the ending. I don’t want it to end since I have to wait until next year for the next book to come out. My thoughts right now on this book: ADRIAN. That is it, besides this book and this series and the Vampire Academy series just being pure amazingness. I like to call Adrian my fictional husband. He is just that amazing to me. I love him so much!
