What are the three best books you have ever read and what are the three worst? What made them so good or bad?

Submitted By [info]crazylove16

1. The Five People You Meet In Heaven by Mitch Albom

This book really got me thinking about the afterlife and I loved how Albom put a different spin on it. I mean, it had me thinking about the 5 people in my life who impacted me in some profound way. Albom does a fantastic job in letting the reader know that your 5 people that you could meet in heaven, don't necessarily have to be anyone you were close with. It could be someone you saw in passing. It's just the fact that these people made an impact on you.

2. Night by Elie Weisel

This has to be one of my favorite books ever. Weisel's traumatic story of life in concertration camps was one to remember forever. It's amazing he survived. He was only 14 when his family was forced to leave thier homes and live in those horrendous hell holes. The Holocaust is one of my favorite things to study in World History and if you're interested, then this book should be on your list. I believe that everyone should read this heartbreaking tale of a young boy trying to survive day to day and never knowing when his time is up.

Ok, so this is the last week of classes for the first semester and I'm totally pumped!

I can't believe that I'm half way through my freshman year of college. It's gone by so fast. I'm going to be home for 6 weeks and I'm very excited because I finally get my braces and I will be completing my play so that it can be performed at my school next April.

Christmas is right around the corner and I can't wait. I love the Holiday season so much because it is really the most wonderful time of the year and I know that I'm going to have some nice relaxation time during my time away from school. I really need it. I love my school so much and living on campus, but I just need a break from the piles of work and from this environment.

Um...I still love Adam Lambert. His CD is so amazing! My fave songs on the album have to be "Broken Open", "A Loaded Smile", "Music Again" and "Surefire Winners". I have never followed an artist this closely, EVER! I keep myself up to date with everything Adam Lambert. I just hope that his AMA performance wont hinder any upcoming opportunities. He's way too talented to be just pushed back away from the the public.

That's all for now! Byeaz!

I'm in College to Get More Knowledge!!!

Ok peeps! So I'm in college now!! A-whoo-hoo! 

I attend Albright College in Reading, PA and I love it. I miss Baltimore but I love it here! I've made some great friends and I just love the college life. I've been here for almost month and it's amazing. College is sooo much better than High School, that I can't even explain it.

My dorm room is so cute and my roommate is really nice. We have one of the bigger rooms because we're located in the basement of our residence hall.

I've gotten sick but I'm all better now. There have been some cases of the swine flu here and I heard that if there are a couple more then they will shut us down for a couple of weeks. Our school is small so they would have to.


Ugh...I've gained a few pounds and I'm so scared. I want to stay my size. It's hard to keep weight off when the food here is sooo good. I'm doing my best to remain my current size. Lawd help me through this. haha!!

That's all for now.

PS. I still love Adam Lambert! He's my gay husband. lol! I can't wait for his album to come out. I can't wait for Kris Allen's album to come out either. :)

From the design to the features, what should the perfect kid-friendly laptop include? What would you leave out?

Sponsored by WePC.com. You dream it. ASUS builds it. Intel Inside®


View 299 Answers

A kids laptop should include designs based on various kids shows (Disney, Nick, Noggin etc). It should be sort of light because there will be a child carrying it around. There should be automatic firewall to block websites that aren't so kid friendly. I don't know what else because I'm not a kid. I do know that my laptop is very handy with everything it has on it. :)

Happy birthday, J.K. Rowling! Which of her seven Harry Potter novels do you think is the most satisfying read?


View 509 Answers

Wow! I remember when Harry Potter and the Socerer's Stone came out in the U.S. I was in 2nd grade I believe. Now 11 years later, I'm still a huge fan of the series and the movies! Ok, so to answer the question: The most satisfying book in the series to read has to be the 3rd one. It was just exciting, you know with Sirius Black, the time turner sequence. It was all very interesting and I remember that I couldn't put the book down. I loved it!

I use CNN as a news source, because it's trustworthy. I know that  will get the facts and not some lame media lies. When other news sources and radio stations were reporting that Michael Jackson had passed away, I waited until CNN confirmed it before I believed it.

I am stressed as mother fucker man! I'm so ready to start the new phase of my life that it's gotten to the point where I just don't give a fuck. You know?

My family thinks that I'm trying to break away from them and maybe that's true. You just get to a point in your life where you feel like you don't need to listen to anyone but yourself. That may be a horrible thing to think and it may bite me in the ass, but I don't really care about the consequences.

Shit, I want to be free of everything. No, I'm not going to kill myself, I'm long passed that dramatic stage in my life. I'm sooo not going back, because it'll just make things even more worse and complicated. I don't know what to do with myself right now, all I know is that I can't be in Maryland anymore.

When, I was younger, I was like "I never want to leave Maryland! I feel so comfortable here." Now that's not the case. It's really awkward and aggravating to be in a place that seems to be holding you back. I don't know if going to Pennsylvania for college will help me "spread my wings" but I'm more that willing to find out.

I am moving 2 hours away from my family. At this point, people would think that I'm getting nervous because I only have roughly 3 more months in the place where I've lived my 18 years of life, but...I'm not. Is that sad? Is that wrong? Am I just being a bitch?

Hell if I know.

Lord, what is wrong with me? Maybe I'm just reacting to all of the shit that has been going down these last few months (constant arguements w/ the moms and sister, just plain ol' stress etc.) and when I get to Albright in August, I'm going to miss the hell out of this place.

Or maybe what I'm feeling will still be the same in 3 months? Who knows? 

But, let sum up this whole thing bluntly for you: 

I'm just ready to move the fuck on...

An Update of Sorts...

Ok, so I've finally completed High School! Whoo! My last day was the 22nd and I was so happy. :) I graduate in 8 days, it's going to be sad, but man am I ready to start my new life.

So...Kris Allen won American Idol. That's ok, because Adam Lambert will do better because he didn't win. I think Adam will make a way better album than Kris. Plus it really didn't matter who won because they're both talented and I'm glad the glory wasn't stolen from Danny Gokey. Also, I'm more than convinced that Adam and Kris (Kradam) are together. Adam Lambert kissed Kriss Allen ladies and gentleman. I know it was a little peck on the head, but still. I'm a fan girl and that was more than enough for me. Also, did you see Kris give Adam a hug attack from behind. It was so cute. Adam was talking about Kris to a reporter (all nice things of course) and Kris comes out of nowhere and hugs Adam fiercely from behind. EEEK! I so love them.

DUMP THE WIFE KRIS AND GO TO ADAM!!!! hahaha!

Is it me, or is RP fanfiction better than regular fanfiction? 

Kradam FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG! Kris Allen and Adam Lambert are in the final two of American Idol! I know there is major boy on boy loving going on in the Idol Mansion right now. lol! I mean come on! Those two totally have something going on. Kris has one painted black thumb nail and Adam  has all of his fingers painted except for one thumb. There is a pic of them putting their thumbs together! They are so cute! They're in love. Kris needs to dump that wife of his. He's too young to be settled down. At 22, you should be hanging at bars! 

 I'm so exctied! I hope Adam wins next week.

So...I graduate from high school in a little over 3 weeks and my last day of school is in 10 school days. It's coming...really fast. It's so strange to be 18 and getting ready to start the next chapter of my life. I can remember when I was 10 years old. I remember being home, watching cartoons (I still do!), playing with my barbies, watching Mary-Kate and Ashley movies, doing dumb easy school work and having no worries in the world. Now, I'm an adult and I have to actually learn how to care for myself. I'll still have my mom's support, but the idea of doing it mostly by myself is scary.

I'm going to miss high school. I'm going to miss the wonderful people that I've grown to love for the past 4 years or more. We're all going in our separate directions. My best friend is staying in Maryland, while I'm going to Pennsylvania. Some people are going down south, while others are staying in the crappy town that we live in. I knew that the time would come for us to move on, but when you're 15, it seems so far away. But time really does fly.

On August 27th, I'll be packing up my mom's car and my grandma's truck and heading up north to PA. It's going to be exciting, but I'll probably cry once we pull out of my driveway.

So, here is a toast to the people who knew me all too well. A toast to those who were there for me and accepted me for who I am/was. A toast to those who I'll never forget even though I'll probably never see them again.

Cheers.

Our friends don't always know us as well as they think, particularly when it comes to likes and dislikes. Which popular book, movie, band, food, TV show, etc. would your friends be surprised to hear that you don't like?


View 500 Answers

I think my friends would be shocked to know that I don't like everything that comes out of Disney Channel. I can't stand some of the stars that are on that channel. I have a love/hate relationship with the Jonas Brothers and Miley Cyrus.

At my school people call me "Disney Channel." But I do hate some things on the network.

What's up livejournal! In just a month I will be walking across a stage and receiving my high school diploma. I'm so excited! It's been a long journey and I'm glad that it's ending because I get to start the next part of my life: College!

I got accepted to the only school I applied for; Albright College in Reading, PA.  As soon as I walked on the campus I knew that was the only school that would make me happy. The people are amazing and the environment is very friendly and safe.

The school has given me $82,000 in scholarships and after I got my financial aid back, I found out that I'd only be paying $5,000 a year out of pocket. That's not bad.

The scholarships I got were based on merit and talent. Here's a little breakdown:

Provost Scholarship (merit): $50,000
Coleman Award: $16,000
Theater Award (I auditioned for this on a whim! I didn't have a monologue to do, so I wrote one on the spot!): $8,000
Music Award (singing): $8,000

So I'm set! 

Oh! At graduation, I will be singing "The Climb" by Miley Cyrus. I know not a lot of people like her, but the song is so meaningful for a time like this. I hope my fellow graduates can see past the singer and listen to the meaning.

How do you feel about Pluto's recent demotion? Should it still be a planet?

It's weird to think that Pluto is no longer one of the nine planets. Growing up (I'm almost 18) I learned about the 9 planets and the sun. They even had a fun a little acronym to remember them.

I hope schools aren't using old science books. They'll be teaching wrong info. pssh! But hey, that doesn't stop history teachers.

 It's not really a nervous habit, but it is quite odd. Whenever I get food, I have to smell it. It's just something that I've been doing since I was little. I get a little comfort that I'm eating something good when I smell it. lol!
