You're "A Roswell Christmas Carol."
Which Roswell episode are you? brought to you by Quizilla I'm so bored.
Actually, I'm not. For me, being bored is when you have homework and you can't find a lot of things to distract you from doing it. I hate my english paper right now. It's crap.
Jessica, thanks for taking my quiz! :) But... I don't know why you're so confused about posting the quizilla tags. All you do is copy everything in the little box and then past it exactly into the html.
New fan art:
Torn Friendship: Alex & Liz
800x600 I'm not too happy with the outcome of this one. It's blah. I just got really frustrated with it in the end.
Travis: The Best Band
800x600 Oh, my!
Ivy is so busy with everything except Ivy! Adam's busy with
Fountains of Wayne, and Andy's busy with
Unfiltered Records -his record company! Plus, Andy's solo debut as Brookville is releasing his debut album,
Wonderfully Nothing this Tuesday.

Right now I'm listening to mp3s of Brookville, Fountains of Wayne & Jason Mraz. Nice mix, haha.
I just found out the TV Guide listings for the U.S. Open. It's so crazy! The first day is like 10 hours! How am I going to find Andy in all this mess?

You're "I Married An Alien."
Which Roswell episode are you? brought to you by Quizilla This is the most laziest week I've had in, I think, my entire life! Everyday I sleep for 12 hours and am up for 12 hours! Next week I need to start sleeping normally, otherwise when I get back to school my body will be out of wack.
I've been so lazy that I don't even read! This whole time I've just been in bed, watching la tele. That's why it took me forever to read
The Lovely Bones. I finally finished it today. It wasn't that it was a bad book, it was pretty darn good actually. It's just that at times it would get way too morbid for me. The way that Sebold wrote really made me think about the afterlife, especially heaven. The fact that Susie was everywhere and even knew the thoughts of the people she left behind on earth was both comforting and disturbing. It's good that she knew that people really cared about her. Yet, it was upsetting to see how they went through it, and how much they suffered.
I didn't like Susie's heaven. It bothered me. I mean, I've always believed that heaven was supposed to be better than earth. But it seems like she hates heaven. Well, she doesn't hate it, but it's not this magical, wonderful place that I thought it would be. There are rules, and you don't get to meet all the other dead people when you want to. It's so sad. The whole time she's watching the living grow up, living the life she would never be able to live. And I never really thought, I mean... What happens to the dead when the living stop missing them? The living move on, but what about the dead?
(Oh, no I think I might start crying...)
This book kept making me think of my abuelito. He died the summer before I went to middle school. I just kept thinking of him because Susie stayed with her family for many, many years after her death.
I know the book was a work of fiction, but it just seemed so real. Sebold made me believe that that's was really happens to you when you die.

I made a review of
The OC. I'm sort of afraid to post it... Jessica will probably get mad at me. Plus, my views of the show have changed since I wrote it.
I'll post it later...

You're "The End of the World."
Which Roswell episode are you? brought to you by Quizilla I finally made my own quiz! Woohoo! Go take it.
I was so sick yesterday. I think I had the stomach flu. In the morning (I'm warning you...leave now...stop reading!) I threw up. (See, I told you.) But ehh, I woke up like at four in the morning and for like two hours I couldn't sleep because I felt that I needed to throw up. Then finally my mom gave me hot tea at like 6 or 7 before she went to work. After a couple of gulps I ran to the bathroom. Throwing up is one of the worst feelings in the world. I hate it because in those few seconds I can't breathe.
So anyways...
I was supposed to start my English paper a long time ago but I keep stalling. I was supposed to start it yesterday but then I got sick. Then, I was going to start today except I lost my paper that had the instructions! I guess I'll start tomorrow. :)
Made a new Shiri wallpaper over the weekend that I just love:
Also, made this yesterday in the few moments that I felt better:
Have a good day everyone!

Andy won!
Could the match have been any longer? I was practically dying when he lost the first set. I kept burying my face in my pillow and I was purposely looking for other things to do because I didn't want to watch the madness. It was so tense and nerve-wracking. I just kept hoping for a tie-breaker in the third set. I only got to watch the first two hours because after I had to go to the movies--but I taped the rest! When I got out the movie theatre, I knew it was over and I kept thinking that Andy had lost. But when I got home at 7, I did get to watch the end of the match. :)
