Harry Potter...

so here's the thing- i love books! we're talking obsessively and in an all consuming sort of way. i have a test you must take if you'd like to borrow my books and i form weird, emotional, and dysfunctional relationships with my books. i know, i know i need a life. but books have always been my escape. they don't let you down. from the first page they transport you out of whatever's going on in your life and let you live something else. through books i have crossed a river with huck finn and found true love with mr. darcy. as a reader i have solved crimes with sherlock holmes and fought in vietnam with tim o'brien. books are safe. they have taught me and been good friends.

so now the reason for this rant. i recently finished harry potter 7. ok by "recently" i mean i finished it the day i got it. couldn't wait. it was everything i wanted it to be and more. j.k. rowling is such an amazing author. the way she weaved in classic lit with her fresh story was a delight to look for. her dialouge is witty and sharp. she truly is one of the great writers of our time. she inspired me. i want to be more regular with my writing. who knows i may have the next harry potter?

Summer So Far,,,

well, i have been offically home for only a few weeks so far, but it feels like a century. I have already taken my CBEST, gone to south carolina to visit my lala, been on ACTS tour, been working, and done VBC. the summer has barely started but i have been going 90 miles an hour. even though it's been insane i am already seeing how God is preparing me for next year. This summer is going to be full of surprises and i'm sure a few prat falls. so enjoy some pictures of what i've been up to. i promise to keep posting.
