10 Things!

Oookay. I'm thinking I might need to switch this "ten things that make me smile" thing to Tuesdays. Mondays are just uber busy.
Mmmmkay!
(& I'm so totally procrastinating right now. It's bad. But I call it "taking a break from the back-breaking burden of being a high school student"...roll with it)
Oh...and this may just end up being a random jumble of things. 

1) I haven't had driver's ed homework for the past two classes! That makes me smile because I despise doing it. Lots.

2) I'm skipping driver's ed tonight. Because I'm a rebel.
Not really. I didn't really want to skip it because now I'll have to go and make it up in the next session! Ahh.
I'm being forced (yes, forced) to go to a concert tonight. I refuse to enjoy myself. I know the whole time I'll be wishing I were in class learning about the proper way to acknowledge stop signs.

3) So one of the bands that's playing at the concert is named Swimming With Dolphins. It was a pain in the butt to find the actual band. But when I did, I kinda liked the music, but I kept thinking, "This sounds like Owl City. These people ripped off Owl City!"
Uh. Swimming With Dolphins was founded by Austin Tofte...and Adam Young. He left the band after Owl City started picking up. Check them out because their music is pretty good (still not the same as Owl City...but ya know)

4) I'm taking a quick interlude here...just to tell you something that will probably make you smile. Or throw things at me because I'm so blonde sometimes. I was on Myspace (I only use it to listen to music) and at the top it says "My_______" and I'm sitting here...
"Why the heck doesn't it say Myspace? Are you supposed to fill it in with something? Why is there just a random spa-....oh."

5) I have less than a month of school left!

6) I won a contest from one of my favorite authors to win a book by one of my other favorite authors! And on her blog, when she announced the winners, she wrote,
Naomi, who is good at procrastinating (I totally don’t relate to this.) (Totally lying)
Out of, like, ten things that I posted on the contest, and this was what was acknowledged?
I refuse to admit I have a problem.

7) There's something that I've been wanting to buy for two months, it wasn't on the internet, but now it is! And I found it. Woohoo. The only thing is that shipping is $8 and the thing in question is only $5. Darned shipping.

8) Remember those books I was talking about last week? I finally got them!
...twenty minutes after I posted that they weren't here yet...
Anyways! I read them in the span of three days and loved them!

9) Reading those books also seemed to get rid of my writer's block that I've had since, like...February.

10) This text I got from my friend: "Dear Ashley, you were right. I was wrong. You're idea was a good one. Without you, I'd be like Osama Bin Laden. Dead. Love, Naomi"
She took the words right out of my mouth, eh?

  1. So you keep writing about reading and I just am wondering the types of books you read. You have given some clues and recently I saw a list on FB of books you had read. Some good stuff for a high schooler. Have you ever been a part of a book club?

  2. I'll read basically anything, as long as it doesn't have a lot of inappropriate content or language in it. A few months ago I was reading a lot of Regency fiction...I like Medieval Fiction, teen fiction, and a lot of Christian fiction. But I like to read classics as well!
