  1. Pick up the nearest book of at least 123 pages. Don't pick the coolest or most impressive one, just the NEAREST one.
  2. Open the book to page 123.
  3. Find the fifth sentence and post it!
  4. Spread this tag to as many people as you can.
Haha funny, because the nearest book to me is a phone book. So I am searching for another book over 123 pages...okay there were none in our office, but there was one on my nightstand...Breaking Dawn the 4th book in the Twilight Series. Page 123 in that book is not very far into it, haha.

The fifth sentence was dialogue and not very interesting so I am going to post the 7th and 8th sentence.

"He came in and appraised my position, sitting cross legged on the floor by the suitcase, and my expression, blank and staring. He sat next to me, his hand going to my forehead at once."

...Now it's your turn...

Update

Today I actually felt like messing with my blog background so I changed it up. What do you think? I recently started reading Breaking Dawn, the most recent book in the Twilight series. I absolutely love this series and when I can afford it I will buy all of the books. I have a job interview tomorrow at 12 with Burlington Coat Factory. I am very excited, because I would so much rather work there than at Convergys.

Books, Books

Today, who I think are my visiting teachers, came over. It was so nice to actually talk with someone that is married too. You have no idea just how nice it was. They both brought there sons. I was a little surprised at first because I knew they both had kids, but I had no idea that they were bringing them with them. It was great though, we talked about marriage, kids, reading, and best of all Twilight. One of the girls owns the whole series and offered to let me borrow the last two books. I was like "That would be awesome!!" There was no way I was turning down an offer that great, haha. Anyways, I am going to have my head in a book for the next little while.

You know what? Talking with these guys made me actually want to start going to church again. It would be such a positive influence on me. I just don't know yet, if it's really what I want yet.

Twilight

While I was over at my mom's this weekend I noticed that she had the book Twilight on her desk.

I was like "Oh my gosh!, You have Twilight!"
She answered, "Yes, I am borrowing it from a friend."
I answered, all excited. "Well, are you reading it now?"
"NO"
Even more excited, "Can I borrow it please"
"Sure!"


I would have to say when I heard about the Twilight Series I was a little reluctant. I had heard that is was like the Harry Potter Series. No one ever told me in what way that it was like Harry Potter though. Anyways, I was kind of disappointed to hear that it was like Harry Potter. I tried to read the Harry Potter books but could never get into them. To me, they were boring.

Anyways, with Twilight in my hands Saturday night I began to read it. At first, I was like what am I doing? I haven't read a whole book in who knows how long? What makes you think I am going to finish this one? OH, well I will tell you what!! I have had my nose stuck in it since Saturday and I am in love with this book so far, I plan on buying the whole series for myself. I am even more excited to see the movie that comes out in December.

I am very proud to say, if you haven't even tried to read Twilight, at least try...It is very good!!!
