things i am looking forward to:

hanging with all of my friends i recently got back in touch with.

seeing whitney continue to grow up. he already is so much more aware. insane. i am quite in love with a boy who does not even know my name yet. how typical.

attending jessica and jesse's wedding in august! i am so jazzed to be able to witness this perfection known as "barf time" eternalized. and i am grateful that i can be a part of such an important moment for two rad human beings. quite looking toward this point in my summer.

reading and writing like a madwoman in the next few summer months.

reading list:

-good omens (finish)
-pride and prejudice and zombies (finish)
-the brothers karamazov (finish)
-the poisionwood bible (finish)
-persuasion
-sense and sensibility
-emma
-the long goodbye
-the sweet hereafter
-eat, pray, love
-confessions of an economic hitman
-the satanic verses
-fountainhead
-rule of the bone

i also want to read more salinger, fitzgerald, hemingway, kerouac, sedaris, and vonnegut.

Yay! So excited to have you there :)

Also, good to see all that Austen...and know all the characters you'll be falling in love with! Fountainhead and Brothers Karamazov are on my to-read list too!!

i love it - it's like two of my favorite fictional characters have met and are friends (since i don't actually know either of you!).

and i hope both you and jessica keep the reading recommendations coming! i am working on the harry potter books for the first time right now, but will need a break from him very soon.

jessica- brothers karamazov is worth it, i think, but it is so packed that it is difficult to plow through! i want to finish!

persuasion was the one you loved the best, correct? remind me?

brittany- hahaha. that is amazzinngg! also, yes. if you ever need more--pleace let me know! so glad you are reading harry potter. about time! ;]

next series you should take up is percy jackson and the olympians.

hey, it's christina (tony's gf). i just wanted to share that i'm not a big reader and lose interest fast, however, my friend made me read the fountainhead and i was surprised by how much i enjoyed it. good day!

really? awesome! i must check it out then. i may move it to the top of my list. i know it is highly acclaimed, and i have never even considered reading it before for some reason.

thanks for the comment, girl!
