| I might take a break from this blog for awhile. I just... don't have anything to say that warrants an internet blog.
If I'm feeling better in a week or something, I'll probably come back. But as of right now, it will probably be longer.

| I feel like I should post a blog, even though I have absolutely nothing to write about. New Year tomorrow? '08! It feels weird, because... Until now, '08 was always in the distant future. And now, it's my graduation year. Oh geez. I'm graduating this year.What the hell happened?
Talked to Eva on the phone for, like... a long time today. It reminded me of Freshman year, when we would talk for an hour or two EVERY day. College is exciting, but scary. I was thinking about it today, and I've kept most of my friends since freshman year up until now. I mean, I've lost some friends. Some that I considered to be my best. And I've gained some wonderful lifelong friends. But most of the core of my relationships have been with me since I was 15... And I've gotta say, for most of them, I expect we'll be friends for a very long time.
It's hard to judge, though, isn't it? Who knows. Maybe we won't keep in touch. How scary.

| Ugh, I hate being sick. I went out for about 2 hours today, and I thought I was feeling better, but then I got home and just felt like I'd been hit by a bus. Guess I'm not doing as well as I thought... Oh well, I'm on antibiotic, so hopefully it'll start working.
Unfortunately, my mom says I can't host New Years, because A) I'm sickish and B) she's sickish. I feel shit about it, cause I think everyone was sort of relying on me, but... I can remember being sick on New Years a few years ago and having people over for the night anyway, and having one of the most awful nights of my life. So hopefully someone else will step up and I can go hang out for an hour or two, and then come home and crash.
Let's give it up for the new year?
My new resolution is NO MORE BOOKS. Haha, what an awful resolution. I read WAY too much the last few days though. It was like Wake up, read, eat something, read more, go to bed. And I dunno if it's a combination of my sickness and all the books I read, but I feel kind of sickish thinking about books.
I finished The Lovely Bones last night. Ugh... those first few chapters... It just makes me shudder to think about it. It gave me trouble sleeping the other night.

| After finishing the first chapter of The Book of Lost Things, I knew it was going to be one of those books.
One of those books that I won't be able to put down until I finish the last page. One of those books that will give me chills when I read a particularly well written line or paragraph. One of those books that has the potential to change me as a writer, and as a person.
Seriously, go read it. It's about a little boy who escapes war-torn London and ends up in this Fairy-Tale world (think Pan's Labyrinth, with more whimsy and humor). It was funny in all the right spots, creepy in all the right spots, and thoroughly depressing in all the right spots.
Saw Sweeney Todd last night with my little bro, plus some friends. It was deliciously bloody. There's a hole in the world with a great black pit...
Had a bit of car drama in the Wendy's parking lot. I couldn't get the car started, so before Eva pulled out of the parking lot I jumped up to tell her to wait and make sure I was alright. So as I run across the parking lot to knock on her window, I hear Ryan yelling "Megan... MEGAN!" So I look over, and my car is rolling away. So I yelled a few obscenities, threw myself into the driver's seat, and rammed on the brake.
Uhhh... No harm done? Except maybe to Ryan... Whatever. If he ever writes an autobiography, he'll need a bit of trauma to dwell on.

| Ohh, Christmas.
I had a pretty good day. I got lots and lots of books, which was exactly what I asked for. I also got a lot of art supplies, a few CDs, Order of the Phoenix on DVD, and a few T-shirts.
I'm happy with the presents I gave, I think everyone liked them.
I read through most of a Caroline Parkhurst book that I got this morning, and it's real good.Now, I feel kind of crappish. My throat's real sore and I have a little headache. Uggh, I hope I'm not getting sick. I'd like to spend winter break doing all sorts of exciting, hardcore things... Not sitting around wrapped in a blanket reading through all of my Christmas book stash (actually, I'll probably do that anyway, but I'll enjoy it more without a sore throat.)
