Buono Giorno, Amici!


I'm bloggity-bloggy-blogging! Do da do...

The post is for you. Yes, you.

How are YOU doing today? I want to know.

I had a good day. At school our first few classes were shortened, so the whole school could participate in a Walkathon. The WHOLE school. The school colors are gold, white, and black, but each grade has a color. 6th graders are gold, 8th graders black, and 7th graders (like me) white. Now with the recently fixed softener, there hasn't been any time to get around to washing white clothes. (I've grown so used to not wearing the any white clothes that I barely notice if they're washed or not.) Of course there were no clean white stuff today, so I just wore a white sweatshirt over an orange shirt. (I don't really have any yellow clothes. That needs to change.) Anyway, the Walkathon was fun, for I got to walk with my friends and say hi to teachers or acquaintances that I don't get to speak to often.

The sun was out more today, but it might have been colder than yesterday. (Look at me, talking about the weather. You don't want to listen to all that.) Autumn is leaving quicker than I thought! And jeez, it's already Halloween next week!

It's awesome how fast I'm writing this post, but I'm not using the "proper" form of typing. ;0)

Oh, hey! November's coming up, and you know what that means! Thanksgiving (nom nom nom potato cheese casserole nom) and...(drum role) HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS PART 1!!!



Don't pretend that you are not utterly ecstatic about it. I know you are. The great part is that since the showing is during the school year and NOT the summer, kids at school get to gossip about it the day of the release, and people will talk about it the next day being like, "AWESOMEST. SEVEN DOLLARS AND FIFTY CENTS. EVER SPENT!"

As you can see, the title for this post is in Italian. Yes, I have regained my enthusiasm for learning Italian. I don't have Spanish until the end of the school year, so I can enjoy learning Italian for a while longer.

I have such a long mental list of books I want to read and/or need to finish. Some books I've wanted to read for a while, but I never get around to it.

Books I want To Read:

- Running with Scissors
- Eat, Pray, Love
- Halo (a book I got for my birthday)
- Burned? (7th House of Night book)
- Awakened? (8th House of Night book coming soon)

And let's not forget those random books that I pass/look/see at the library and think "hm, that looks interesting..." but I never get it, because I'm already reading some other book.

Note that Burned and Awakened have question marks next to them because I'm not exactly sure if I want to read them, but I probably should because I've already read and own the six other books.

Books that I Started to read/read a good chunk of but Never finished:

- It Was the Best of Sentences, It Was the Worst of Sentences
- Black and Blue Magic
- Star Girl
- Lord of the Flies (the writing is kind of poor)
- Mockingjay (up to chapter 4, but it's kind of boring)

There are no doubt more books, but those were the ones I could think of just now.

Well, buona notte! (At least for me.)
