What's everyone up to?

Things generally do get a lot worse before getting better. I'm ss about your friends brother Tasha. Hopefully things will start getting better for you and your family.

As for when your book will come in Kiera, it'll ship out tomorrow and probably arrive 5-7 days later. Thats how long it takes for me to recieve something I order online. It probably depends on how close to the shipping area you live.

AHHH I can't believe SB comes out tomorrow!

Gosh, Kiera I'm so sorry about your brother, it must have been horrible for you, and him because thats a terrible thing to have happen. But its good that he's getting better And will continue to..
And its good that you're back, i think i might have spoken to you about once before? I'm sorry you're getting sick alot, my younger sister had that..try taking multi-vitamin tablets, it builds up vitamins you don't have enough of inside you But it probably is just stress, so try and relax!

And Tasha, I really do hope things do start to get better for you, you're such a nice, caring person and don't deserve any of this! I wish I could help you out with everything better And Im sorry about your friends brothers passing. Things will get better!

And Wilda...I share your "AHHH" I can't wait either! I've arranged a trip with my driver!! So hopefully I'll get the book tomorrow!

Just finally got the whip cream sticking crap off me!

Ok anybody watch the bonus teaser trailer yet? It broke my heart when I read it! I couldo nyl think of Dimitri saying it to Rose or vice versa.

I just took my Second SOL stupid math my brain hurts. SO TOMMOROW FOR ME TASHA AND WILDA IS the RELEASE DATE FOR SPIRIT BOUND!!! Notice my excitement with all caps! Them only because I know they live on the same coast I do, Wilda I am very Jealous of where you live. Now I'm jittery and smucking excited, thank god for allergies and Bynedrel to get you to sleep!

Getting over some extra super hype from school today even though it rained. In my theatre class me, Jeff, and six other people put on a mini drama because we were in there for two hours, due to SOL schedule, and made up a game. So Jeff decied we do a drama. I was the phycosis, spelled that wrong I know, which I did perfectly thanks to Patty form Young and the Restless and Jeff played my husband, ironic, and like I stabed him with a seringe filled with a leathal death syrum. He dies and then the six other people were either the doctor or nurses and one was the woman who tried to kill me and ended up putting me in the lonny bin and I end up killing everyone because the woman had a knife that I swiped and slit all their necks. SO we ended with a big applause and we got a chance to do it for each class! Yay us! That's actually one of my 13 short plays I have written. If you want to read it I can send you a copy. One of my favorite lines that had to be take out because of the amount of time to do it is by me the crazy woman, her name is Jarissa, and she has just killed Jeff, his name is Byrce, and she is panting so the words are a little unclear when you say them, "Damn you Byrce, god damn you! No one screws with my life, not even you. Our love was precious, but is purely and uterally damned to your new hell." Dark I know but I like it.

That's it I think...?

Wow. That is intense! I just watched the bonus teaser trailer and felt like my heart broke too. Maybe Rose is saying it to try and make herself believe that so she doesn't hurt so much. I watched all of the trailers and wrote down which person I think said them all. Spirit Bound comes out tomorrow for me as well! Every morning for the past 2 weeks I have a spazz attack at school saying "Spirit Bound comes out in *number of days*. I think tomorrow people are going to ask what's wrong with me because I am so excited for it!
I am still wishing the best for you Tasha!

Wow Ash sounds like you had a fun day. idt I want to know about the whip cream though lol. My day has been filled with cleaning, laundry, tending to my son, and somehow reading BP in between all that. I've managed to read 3/4 of the book. I'm just past the last dream Adrian came in where he sees her neck and is begging her to come home for Lissa. I've noticed as lot more in it this time around. I still hate Dimitri being a Strigoi though. Right now I'm taking a break to watch the season and possibly series finale of One Tree Hill. "She was sexy, til she started dancing." BAHAHAHAHA lol

*Squeeeeeeeeals* SB is out in like less than 4 hrs!!!!!!!!!!

It comes out for me tomorrow 2.

Tasha, I really hope things better for you. I unstand what your feeling. Last June I lost 2 family members within a week of each other. But things get better then they get worse. It's a freakin roller coaster that I wish I could get off but you have to look at what you have. Family that loves you and friends who care and will listen to you whenever you need to talk. That's what helped me and I hope it will help you.

Kiera, you could be stressed. When I was doing my undergrad work I got so streesed that I made myself sick. I wasn't organized and I wasn't expressing my feelings, so everything built up until I broke down. I went to my doctor got some meds (which I'm not on anymore, Thank God) and starting talking to my best friend more (my mom). After that I felt better. I hope you get better and I agree you need to relax. Take a day or 2 and spend it on you and no one else.

I agree with everyone Kiera. It definitely sounds like stress. There's been several times that I've goten so stressed that I got sick to the point I actually thought I was pregnant lol. Talking helps and liek amy said take time for yourself. You've gotta take care of yourself.

Sooo. The season finale of One Tree Hill...I thought it was going to have the perfect ending but right at the last minute 2 ppl get shot! UGH! First, Dell dies on Private Practice. Second it seems that robert dies on Brothers & Sisters. now on my FAV show it looks like Clayton &/or Quinn might die! Idt both will both most likely at least one will. On top of that it looks like someone will die on Grey's Anatomy. WTH? What is with all the deaths on the season finales this yr??

Sry. I'm a bit angry over OTH. And I get deeply involved in my shows like I do my books lol

Well, Idk if I will be on tomorrow, so I'm gonna go ahead and wish everyone a HAPPY SPIRIT BOUND DAY!!!!! lol

2 hours now!
I watched Dancing With the Stars. I want Nicole or Evan to win but I think it's about time Chad OchoCinco leaves the shows. I just don't think he's as advanced as the rest of them.

I'm not leaving Shadow Bite, because I love it here and am close to people. But I just thought I'd tell you all that Penguin Australia has created a VA forum and Richelle is one of the members. She said she's not going to be able to check in all the time, but she will stop by occasionally and post here and there.

Happy Spirit Bound day

My car won't start!!!! I am super pissed. Out of all the freaking days why today?!? UGH! My husband said he'd bring it home after work but thats 8-9 hrs from now

I'm gonna do my best and stay away until I read SB cause I know there will be spoilers and if I see them i will read them and I don't want anything spoiled lol

Wilda.....UH! Clayton &/or Quinn gets shot and possible death?!!!!
I don't mind you telling me about OTH btw, because in England it airs later and i don't usually watch it because i watch it on Youtube!
Ahhh my god!
And I agree..i don't really wanna see spoilers about SB because i want it all to be a surprise!
And IM sorry your car won't start!

And Kim ..OMG! Whoa, ..im not leaving Shadow Bite though

They both got shot by that stupid physcho Sara wannabe girl. It was the perfect finale until that point. Jullian proposed to Brooke and Haley found out she's pregnant and is thankfully returning to her old self again. I was sooooo shocked with the ending. It happened right before it went off. All I could do was gasp and cover my mouth. No time for any other reactions until it went off and I teared up lol. I love Quinn and Clayton and they have only been on the show for this season. I hope they don't kill either one off but we won't know until season 8 begins in September-if there is a season 8. I assume there will be b/c of the cliffhanger.

Blah. I just finally finished re-reading BP and now I'm going crazy not having SB in my hands. I guess thats good cause I still have some cleaning to do and laundry to fold and I can get my workout in before the hubby gets home and I get distracted by the book lol. Everything will cease to exist them so i better wait until the kids are in bed to read it huh?

So who has already read it/currently reading it?

I have created a SB spoilers thread for those who have read SB and are currently reading it. That way maybe other threads will stay spoiler free for those who haven't read it yet.

OMG! Eurgh... Julian proposes...im guessing you don't know her answer..? last i watched she was arguing with him about ow she couldn't have babies -which is soooo sad! I mean seriously..why don't the writers like Brooke?
And yaaaaay! Haleys back!
I would have been covering my mouth to..i actually just stare at the tv screen at cliffhangers, unable to move

Oh well done I'm still waiting for my driver..

Ah! OMG! The smucking day is finally smuckign here! I am getting my happy little ass to Walmart as soon as my kid gets home! Oh godI promised I wasn't going to read until friday but dman it I'm reading it today! 6 hours of agonizing torture today and Ifianlly get my wish! Ok I'm gonna pass out if I on't hsut up.

Ok in other news SMUCK Jeff's parents right now! They are planning on moving! WTF?! Right? Grr I'm still mad. Jeff still hasn't come over and like ugh! I am goign ot flip out if I don't talk to him! I haven't seen him all day! Can anyone relate to this? Bad enough I had to go through it with my dad, now Jeff... Jesus Christ... I hate my life right now.

Happy Smucking Spirit Bound Day.

ugh SS Ash. Where are they moving to? I've kinda been in that situation with my hubby. We met in 10th grade and he was very flirty with me but I always ignored him cause I thought he was just teasing me (plus i didn't really like him lol) anyways after getting to know him more I started liking him and then found out that he was moving back to AR. I was devastated. But 2 yrs later he moved back down to live with his brother. Thats when we got together and have been together 7 yrs now. What are you and Jeff going to do?

My husband took off an hr early and brought me SB I'm trying to hold off on reading but I'm caving lol

I am so P.O.ed right now. I can't geet SB until like Thurs or Fri. I have to work like all day today and tomorrow. There is like no time for me to go.

I also want to get the new Vampire Kisses book. It came out today too.

On a happier note I just Finished Burned, so while I am waiting to get SB (*growls) I going to work on my book. I was told you are not a writer if you don't finish a book. So I am going to get closer to finishing my book and maybe read a little of Kiss of Life.

I hope u all get ur books soon. Enjoy!

Kim i saw RM post an announcement but i just couldn't join, i felt like i was cheating on you all. I loveeeeeee shadow bite. lol.

I pulled a ninja adventure today. So i bought SB, started reading it, on page 100 or so. It will take me longer than usual ( a day) to read because of life right now. So if u dont see much of me around its because Im off reading for the few precious moments i have free time.

I Love Shadow Bite too, and like I said, I'm not going to leave it or stop posting here or whatever. But I joined the other one too because it's run by Penguin Australia and I lvoe them too

Uh NO! Ash im sorry i sure hope they don't move..why would they move after you guys are engaged?!!!!!! *shakes head*
What are you and Jeff going to do?!
And i can't relate to that situation about your lover moving but one of my best guy friends moved away last year And he didn't even know they were leaving until the morning, so he only got a chance to come and say goodbye quickly. But we send letters to eachother every week, and visit by plane quite often. So if it does come down to that, maybe you should do that?
And i can definately relate to relationship problems..but i think maybe Jeff will be arguing with his parents? Idk though

And awwwh Wilda, y ou and your husband are young romances

So my driver did get here...at 8:30!! but i still got the book, but i haven't actually read it yet. I have to write up an English essay so...?

But good news...I got an A* in my Chemistry Exam ..wooooh top marks!!!!

And yeah, hope everyone manages to get SB and enjoys the read

congrats on your A Chloe

I just finished reading SB. I'm not gonna say much except for OMG. Not really what I expected. My mind is in this total stae of shock right now and I cna't seem to wrap my head around everything that happened esp the ending! Now we've got 6.5 months of pure torture til LS comes out

Thankyou Wilda!

And you've finished...wow you have read fast!
And hmmm..im guessing the book is good then

And I'm totally annoyed with my brother
He left me to look after my younger siblings when he knows I want to read! But I called Lina, so alls goood

yeah my average time for reading books is a day and it is good. Richelle definitely did throw in some twists and it ended with a cliffhanger just like she said *sigh* December is so far away. idk if I'm gonna make it lol

Well...whoaaa!
And i know...its so horrible after you've read the book and then have to wait ages for the next one

I just finished SB and I've been ignoring everything else around me of an afternoon because of it.
But not that I've finished it's all come crashing down. Luckily my history essay was given an extension today, so it's no longer due on monday and now next friday. But I have to pick new subjects for the second half of the year and my uni has this stupid system where you have to do your majors/minors and then pick a few random other courses...expect they want you to mix it up a bit with the degree I'm doing. The problem is that the courses they offer in 3rd year are almost all carry-over courses that you need prior knowledge of, which I don't have because they're not my normal courses and I'm freaking out that I'll be picking someone I know nothing about and I've got no one to comfort me because me sister moved out of home, my other sister is at work and my parents are away, my best friends live on opposite sides of the state (literally, one on the border at the south, one at the north while I'm sitting here in the middle of the state (even if I'm on the coast)) And I'm sitting alone in the house while it's getting darker and I'm freaking out!

*sigh* guess I better get back to finding another subject

EDIT: I think I worked out how I can do it, but it involves a few crafty ways through the system and I have to hope that no-one else has the same thoughts as me or I'll be screwed...though I just found yet another option, so I'm feeling a LOT less stressed now. Why is subject picking so horrible?
