Being Sick... and studying Astro.

I have an ear infection in my left ear AND I have a HUGE astro test on Monday. This sucks. The class is massively boring... and with an ear infection it makes it worse. Most of the time, I surf Facebook or the internet while I'm in class since the teacher, Dr. Nila, is lecturing in her broken English. I'm not racist, but sometimes I feel confused about her phrasing and use of words. Its annoying.

Midnight Release Party

First off, I want to say something to Ashley! Ash, you did a fantastic job at the party last night. I understand why you were so stressed, I would be too. That crowd was tough. I had so many people tell me that you did such an amazing job. And it is true.

Now, onto the party. It was supposed to have started at 10. But... people started showing up around 8:30. These teenage girls were were intense. Shirts made and booty shorts (their asses were hanging out) and makeup. I went to dinner to count ballots for the "Twilight Movie Awards." Which took forever. Allie and Claire were there with me and they helped me so I could actually eat. Thanks, ladies. So, I came back from lunch and took on the job of taking pictures. I hope Ash likes the pics I took. I was called to the register and the Twilight table. Jeremy told me to give away a "Director's Notebook" for the best t-shirt. Ashley turned it over to me, which I never expected. I picked 9 people. We had shirts ranging from "My boyfriend has: golden eyes, silver Volvo, and the ability to dazzle me" to my absolute favorite, "Yes, I'm a mom, Yes I read Twilight, Of course I love Edward, but please don't tell my husband!" That shirt won. She deserved it. The rest of the party went on smooth until time to line up for the purchases of the movie. Some how the line color were leaked and people tried lining up in the "I want to risk the Exclusive" line. So we switched around the colors and got everyone through the line with a DVD. It took us only 30 minutes to sell 125 DVDs and make $4500.00. Good job ladies and gentlemen!

Twilight on DVD tonight!!!

OMG! I can't believe that the culmination of all things Twilight is coming out tonight at Midnight. I am so excited that the DVD is being released. It doesn't feel like its been 4 months since I saw the movie (in its entirity). I'm looking forward to seeing how the DVD is put together.

Energy and why it lasts.

So... have you ever laid down to sleep and discovered that you have a million things running through your head? That happened to me at about 2AM. I had watched Made of Honor and realized I was really tired. So I turned out all the lights and went to bed. I laid there and tossed and turned and pondered. I knew I had a list of things to do before my sister and mom get home from Mississippi. So, I decided, after about an hour, to get up and clean. I rearranged my room, put the laundry on, and watched movies. Somewhere in there I ate a lemon bar.. I'm pretty sure that's why I'm still wired. Ugh. All that's left to do is run to Wal Mart and get a 3 tier shelf for my left hand wall. My books have begun to spill over onto the floor. Did I mention that its 7:43 in the morning? Because it is. I woke up at 11:20AM yesterday morning when my mom called me from my aunt's house to let me know when they were leaving. So here in roughly 3 hours, I'll have been awake for 24 hours. Never done that before.

Here's what's left to do:

1. Take Kalin's box to the Post Office
2. Get shelf at Wal Mart
3. Half Price Books (Shopaholic books --> Takes Manhattan, & Sister, & Baby)

I think I can get it all done!

First Blog!

Hey all!

So, this is the first blog I've ever done. I've given in to some suggestions to get one of these to talk things out. So here goes...

So, last night I went to the Borders in Allen for a book signing. PC and Kristen Cast, authors of the fabulous House of Night series which follows Zoey Redbird and her vampyre fledgling friends. Great series if you haven't read it. I was prepared to meet two people that were cocky and stuck up, but surprisingly they were both really kind. PC cusses like a sailor and embarrasses Kristen a lot. That was great. I guess you could say I had a preconceived notion that authors are snooty. But they weren't. They answered everyones questions perfectly. I asked her about the imprinting of Stevie Ray and Aphrodite and I learned that they'll be important in the upcoming books.

Today has been fantastic. A 180 degree turn around from yesterday. Starting at 7:55 pm monday night, I got on a bus from Meridian Mississippi to Fort Worth Texas. It was a 13.5 hour ride... ugh! Awful. So I was exhausted, then I lost my autographed book after the book signing and was treated really rudely by the employees at Borders. But today was a better day! I woke up and got to talk to my mom (whom is still in Mississippi), went to Borders in Allen and found my book on a display table by the YA section, got the Twilight Director's Notebook, AND got GQ with Rob Pattinson on the cover. But the best thing that happened to me today was the box that came in the mail from my Best Friend, kalin! It had the most sentimental presents in it. It was a painted jewelry box and matching picture frame and a gorilla with a matching tie! In the picture frame there was a poem that made me cry. I love Kalin so much. She is the best friend I've ever had! That was my day!
