It's been 5 months

Wow. Today while procrastinating homework, out of the blue this blog popped up in my head. I decided to log back in for nostalgia's sake and realized how much I miss it. I'm going to try to start reviewing again. Life is kicking my ass at the moment and I need a pick me up. A lot has changed and happened in the past five months. I'm more cynical than ever and no longer have daily access to the internet or my books. But I recently bought the Kindle and have starting reading again. Now that reading is more accessible (and cheaper) I've decided to try this again. But you are forewarned, I don't know how often I will be able to update or if I'll even be able to do it regularly. As always, please be critical or even mean in the comments if you think I'm doing a horrid job and super nice and complimentary if I'm doing a good job.

Hope all is well in your lives. Now, I'm off to start my next review.

If you have wondered where I've been

First let me say I'm so incredibly sorry.

Second, the reason I haven't updated or even read a book in several weeks is I've been trying to get back into school. I did and last Monday, the 3rd, was my first day. I'm home today cause I have some kind of virus, which is the only reason I have time to get on the computer. If I ever have enough time to finish a book I will post the review but I really have no idea when or if I will. School is harder than I remember...
Anyways, once again I'm sorry but obviously school is more important. 
Hope everyone is well and the best of luck in all of your endeavors.

Another apology, I know I suck

But I've been studying like 24/7 because I'm re-enrolling for school this year. YAY! I'm so excited. I'll be able to get a job. And if I get a craving for ice cream or something I can go to like five places within walking distance at any time during the night and get one. Oh yeah and there's people here. Anyways unfortunately for you guys that means no reviews or anything because I have no time to read. Sorry you guys but you know priorities and all.

I'm back (finally), IMM, and random news

I'm Back
Okay I've been back for awhile, but you know how it is when you get back from vacation. You're behind on everything. When I got back I was home for all of five minutes before  I left to go to my step-dad's for a few days. I get home and I see the house and my room and I'm like, "Oh... My... God. This place is a wreck" My room was a disaster. Well, okay my room is always a disaster and  like that way, but this looked like a tornado went through there. Guess what her name is? Obama. Yep that damn dog got into my locked room and ruined everything. Ripped stuff apart, dragged my clothes and books and movies into other rooms of the house. It was depressing to think about.
So I get home I have to wash all of my clothes, clean my room, mow the out of control lawn and so on. I'm still not done...
 In My Mailbox
I got an ARC of The Days of Little Texas by R.A. Nelson
Testimony by  Anita Shreve from a contest
If I Stay by Gayle Forman from Kroger
The Reader by  Bernhard Schlink from Kroger
From BookMooch:
Prep by Curtis Sittenfeld
Vertigo by Lauren Baratz-Logsted
I think that's it...
Random News
My new email is book_junkie@ymail.com
I haven't been able to get into any books I've been reading, but I'm going to make myself read one soon. 
I'm going to re-enroll for this year so I'll be a senior! YAY! But that means I'm going to have to work my butt off studying  from now until then. So a little less reading than usual but more than lately.
I think that's it... Oh I cant find the cord for my camera so I can't upload the pics from Florida on here. When I do I'll post them...

My email was spammed

Yeah my email for my blog (cullenwan2b@yahoo.com) was spammed so some emails that say something like, "You won" I just assume are spam and apparently they were books I won. And some authors have sent me emails but I'm not sure if they're spam or not and it's just getting annoying so I'm going to change my email. I'll still check the old one occasionally just in case but when I create my new one you guys will be the first to know. 


I'll probably make it something like bookjunkie@whatever.com or something so it's easier for you guys. 

P.S. if you ever wondered why my Book Junkie email is cullenwan2b@yahoo.com or why my name on that account is Amelia Cullen it's cause I used that email for my internet pen pals who didn't know my real name. I came up with it like the same day I read Twilight so cullenwan2b just popped in my head lol


P.P.S I wont The Chosen One from Review X!! WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO


P.P.P.S I'll write my vaca summary and show you pics of my oddly shaped sunburn the day I get back after I SLEEP for days...

I'm going to Florida!!! and my computer and phone is still infected :(

Daytona Beach here I come! Oh how I missed you...

This is how I got the news
*ring ring*
Me: Hello
Shauna: *Ominous voice* I have a very important question to ask you.
Me: Okay...
Shauna: Do you want to go to Florida with me?
Me: Sure
Shauna: Yay! Okay we're leaving Saturday morning so come over Friday and spend the night. 
Me: Cool cool. Want me to bring anything?
Shauna: Your laptop.

And that was pretty much it. We continued to talk about what to bring. Then we laughed for about 5 minutes because we decided I was going without even telling my parents and because I don't even have to ask my parents. I did tell them later though obviously. I'm not just going to hop on over to Florida without telling them. Anyways we leave this Saturday and we're going with her mom. Drag! No parting, no going out after dark, no going anywhere without her watchful eye. Grr mean Neo-Nazi.

Anywho because the drive down there is long I might actually have the time to finish a book or two. (Yay!) Which means reviews (YAY!!) I still have a virus (or many viruses) on my computer and BlackBerry so I can't answer or send emails (just to be safe) so if you've sent one, I'll get to it eventually. Also, if you have sent one can you leave a comment telling me so I know to look for it. A lot of emails I've been getting don't look like spam but are or aren't but look like it.
I think I'm going to have to get a new email address...

Another anywho, I'll be posting about my day and some pics every day if you want to read it. 

I think that's it...

Nope wait there's more. What ever happen to Donna's sister? I'm watching That 70's Show and it had Donna's little sister, Tina, in it. Now this is weird because this is the only episode of That 70's Show I've ever seen with her little sister. Actually, I think this is the only episode I've ever even heard of her. So does anyone know what happened to Donna's sister?

01 June 2009

I was interviewed...

by Storyheart here: http://storyheart52.wordpress.com/ (You'll have to scroll down to find it)  He's the author of Across the Pond. (My review is here)


Also, my computer has a virus and then it got on my BlackBerry. It'll be awhile until I can post stuff, but I'm working on it.

Updates and things. Warning I rambled

First off I hope everyone had a wonderful Memorial Day/weekend. This weekend every year is one of the many excuses my family uses to get together at one of my Aunts house and have a cook out and have the pool set up and everything, but because it was raining this morning I assumed there would be no swimming. So I decide to take me time on my outfit and hair and makeup, and let me say it was perfection. I rarely get my hair and makeup perfect, it usually one or the other, but I did this time. My outfit was black flow-y skirt black flip flops and a red white blue and black striped shirt. My aunts and mom were like, "Only Amelia can pull off being goth and patriotic at the same time", but to my surprise when I walked up there it was sunny and cloudless so I ruined my perfect hair and makeup when I jumped in the pool... sigh isn't life mean. Lol just kidding...
The downside to the gatherings at my Aunt's house is... dead zone *duh dun dun* I know scary right? I come back after three days and my email inbox is full on all three accounts, I have voicemails and text messages out the wazoo (Hehe funny word) and many many blogs I need to catch up on. (Speaking of which, if any of you have seen that I've won something could you let me know? I know I won Testimony at The Novel Bookworm. Please and thank you)
OMG Guess what?? SHAUNA AND ERIKA AND KATIE AND JOANIE (and a bunch of other people) GRADUATED!!!! Whoooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay I'm done.
P.S. I'm in a bad mood, like really bitchy and critical so I'm not going to write any reviews tonight. I'll just end up being really mean for no reason and I don't wanna do that so... No reviews tonight.
Oh P.P.S I'm taking Mother to a spa this week(end) so dead zone again, and I can't blog while I'm getting pampered so once again reviews later.
