I’m so sorry for neglecting my website and my dailies. This time of the year, school gets really hectic. I’m going to be really busy until Spring Break, then after Spring Break, I’ll be busy until the end of the semester. I’ll try to update as much as possible, but don’t count on hearing from me daily.
I don’t know if I mentioned it before, but I’m a terrible reader. As a result, I’ve missed out on a lot of great books. I’m also at a disadvantage when it comes to school. So far, I’ve made it through three years of college with hardly ever consulting a textbook. Lately, I realized that if I intend to do well in my studies, I’m going to have to make myself a better reader. Therefore, I bought three books this week: Animal Farm, 1984 (I’ve always wanted to read those two), and The Other Boelyn Girl. I’ve already finished the Animal Farm and I’ve started 1984. The Animal Farm was so good that I couldn’t put it down… and ended up missing two classes 
Last night, my friends and I went to hear Jackson Jones (Rach’s boyfriend, Michael’s band) at a bar in downtown Tuscaloosa. They are so good!! Here are some pics from the night:
I’ve chosen my top five favorites from the past Caption Challenge. It was really a tough decision since I had about ten favorites. In the end, I picked the captions submitted by Chris, Arwen, Katy, Tuan, and Yajaira. I’ve posted a new picture for the challenge, so go give it a shot!
I gotta go to bed now. I have a Calculus test Tuesday and I’m determined I’m going to make a perfect score. I could’ve had 100% on the first exam, but I chose to watch anime instead of studying 
I’m going to study all day tomorrow like a good student!
Question: What part of speech is a word like however or nevertheless?

Meep, I’ve been exactly the same in neglecting my blog and my dailies lately, oops.
Am trying my best, though! 
Eeee, good luck on the test!

However and nevertheless.. I’m not exactly sure, but I know they’re transition words, as one way to put them.

I’m not sure if I can count myself as a terrible reader, since I don’t read many of these “classics” (or however you want to call them); however, I do read many other fantasy novels written in the recent years.
In English, we’ve just finished reading Animal Farm, and we’re starting 1984 for our science fiction unit. Although Animal Farm wasn’t the most interesting read ever, it was good nevertheless.
They’re adverbs.

Okay, I LOVE the shirt you have on. I wish I had the stomach (and boobs) for shirts like that!
We’re going to do a book club type thing at SNOG! I dunno if you would be interested, though!

I think most people are busy hon, so I daresay no one has been too bothered. Obviously we’re bothered, but not.. y’know. Aww crap. I’m no good at this “words” business.

Don’t feel so bad, I don’t read a lot of books myself, and I know I am missing out on a lot, but I really do need to make the effort of reading more books. You guys look great in the picture, sounds like you had a great time!! I love your smilies omg where did you get them, oh wait I’ll check your credits hehe. *waves goodbye*

1984 is good. I also recommend “The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime” by Mark Haddon. It’s a great read. I think I finished it in two days.
