So...

So...

 I'm not a fantastic writer in the sense that I can never get a straight thought out. I can write essay's for class but when I try to write an actual story, it'll start out with kings and queens, and end with how lucifer died (which might make sense in some circumstances but when the middle of the story is about dancing turtles then it just can't end well). 

But what I can to do pretty well is read, way too much. But I also like to talk (way to much really). I've lost count of how many times i've been told to "just shut up already, we get it". I also like to tell stories (again, I just don't shut up) about any and everything from dawn till dusk. So what I'm getting at here is that this is a place for me to write about the things that I like to talk about no matter how sucky the writing is going to be, so if you're a reader and enjoy hearing stories from a somewhat awkward drama queen then ya'll might like what I have to say. 

Or not ;)

For my first post I've decided to tell a "traumatic" story form my childhood (what better way to start a blog) and give a few book recommendation's.

I used to be shy, like really really shy. Like I used to be "scared" of asking my parents for something because I didn't want them to laugh at me... This was at age 6.  9 years later my confidence has boosted quite a bit, considering i'm no longer afraid to tell the waiter at the restaurant my order. (But i'm just as awkward, theres no changing that).  But back to age 6: Have you ever done something that you regret the second after you do it? have you ever been filled with so much guilt that you can't really move that well? You see, I have. In my younger years I used to go to a coffee shop every single morning (we can all probably guess what this coffee shop is but for the sake of my still existing paranoia i'm just not going to say it). My father would buy his coffee, get my chocolate bar and then we would be on our way. But one day, my father forgot the chocolate bar so, instead of doing the rational thing and just telling him, I decide to just take the chocolate bar for my self and stash it in my pocket. Now being a 6 year old I was NOT fully aware of the concepts of stealing so this was not that big a deal to me at the time. Fast forward another year and I now know the difference between right and wrong, which of course means that the memory of the dreaded chocolate bar comes back to haunt me for the rest of eternity. My ability to overthink literally everything did not help me in this situation. 

 I started to think that if I were to tell my parents what happened then they would send me off to jail and I would never have a life. So I just held on to this secret for close to a year until eventually I did tell my parents to which they responded with laughing... But now that I'm a little older I've learned that i'm probably not going to be hunted down and killed for taking a 4 cent candy bar. But my ability to overthink literally everything has not changed and I'm working on that. Anybody else have this ability? Because i'd love to know :) (I use to many smiley faces.)

Recommendations:

WARNING: I read quite bit of young adult so thats probably the only genre that you'll find on here.

ANOTHER WARNING : I am a teenage girl so that means that I use way to many exclamation points so if you're one of those people who think that over using exclamation points is annoying and unnecessary than you're just going to have to get over it or leave.

The Lunar Chronicles By Marisa Meyers - A sci-fi dystopian series about fairy tale retellings in the way future after about 2 more world wars happened. Now this might sound a bit cheesy or juvenile or whatever you want to call it but this series is spectacular and it is one of my absolute favorite!! The first book is Cinder (I didn't get the title till half way through the book when I learned what this series was actually about). Book 2 is Scarlet (red riding hood) the third book is Cress (Rapunzel) and the fourth book; Winter comes out in November. Heres a link to Marisa Meyers website http://www.marissameyer.com

Percy Jackson And the Olympians by Rick Riordan - If you like Greek mythology this is where it's at. This series starts with 12 year old Percy Jackson who has been kicked out of boarding schools all across New York because "weird things" keep happening, but he's not sure how. Eventually he ends up at Camp half-blood, a camp for demigods (half human half greek god). This series is 5 books long and follows percy and his half-blood friends until their 17. Then there's the spin off series called The Heroes of Olympus that still follows Percy and a few other kids from the Roman demigod camp. I'm not going into to much detail here at the chance of spoilers, but I will say that this series is so so so so hilarious. I'm pretty sure I fell out of my chair more than once from the laughs (and the feels of course). 

See ya!
