I love BookLikes.  I do, but pay for a themed layout?  Hell no.

 

I have bought layouts from people who have designed them because while I tinker with CSS, I am not proficient, but it will be a goddamned cold day in hell before I pay a site to access a layout.  Sorry.

I AM THE HAPPIEST KID IN THE WORLD RIGHT NOW.

Actually, though. I am the happiest kid. I just got a typewriter for free in a gift exchange, so I'm really happy. like, REALLY happy. 

 

 

All the time now I'm just like

"I got a typewriter." and my parents are like

"We know. You just said that."

"that's irrelevant because I got a typewriter."

 

So yeah, and it's an old one that's not electric but it's still in really good shape and stuff. I'm happy. Yeah.

The Fault in Our Stars - John Green

just a thing that I noticed, and I don't know if this is accurate or not in real life, but Hazel does a lot of thinking about how attractive Augustus is, but in a very cynical way. I think the cynical is just her, but do girls really just go around and be all 

"Good looking, Good looking, oh look, it's that guy, Good looking, HELLO HANDSOME! Good looking, meh." ?

Is that a thing? I don't know.

I'm a Canadian, and I hate snow. (There, I said it. Am I going to be deported?)

Alright, this is just a quickie post to say that I hate snow. I don't mind Christmas, or winter, but I hate snow. 

 

I know that some of the VERY few of you that are reading this may be from places where there is no snow and you're all like

"Snow is fun!"

 

YOU'RE WRONG.

 

It may be fun for like, the first three minutes, but after you've shoveled it, blown it, been hit by balls of it, had it blown in your face by the wind, and then finally fallen into it when you're not wearing gloves or a toque (sorry, Americans, winter hat. [I don't know what you call them there.]) and you just end up cold and wet... well, it's not so much fun then. 

 

So, all in all, the point is, 

 

DON'T COME TO CANADA IN THE WINTER. IT'S COLD AND SUCKISH AND BOO. JUST DON'T DO IT.
