These are a Few of my Favorite Things!

Well, I have recently been obsessed with quite a few things, from Smashbook's to The Hunger Games. It's a wide variety and I decided I would list them out and tell you what they are! Here are a few of my favorite things, number one being the best in the world!

1. Neal Shusterman-

So this guy is the most amazing author in the world, atleast through my eyes. I read any of his books I can get my hands on, and he is the greatest. I have raved about his books (The Skinjacker Trilogy, Bruiser, The Schwa Was Here etc.) and I am so excited for Challenger Deep to come out! Also, Unwind (One of his best) is being made into a movie, which I will see with some of my friends when it comes out! I love him SO much, and he is my favorite thing ever.

2. The Hunger Games-

I am obsessed with The Hunger Games trilogy! I love love love the characters (especially Peeta Mellark) and how Katniss fights for what she believes in! (Unlike that annoying Bella character from Twilight, a series I despise.) I am seeing the movie (25 days!) at midnight with my BBF Kennedy Reeves, and apparently they are handing out pins? I dunno, but I really hope they do >:)

3. Smashbook's-

This is me and my Smashbook I got on Saturday! It's the "Simple Style" and it's really cool. They are kinda like scrapbooks, but simpler. You can put anything you want in there! It comes with accesories and things you can buy to make it all fancy! Made by k&company, they are really great for just about anyone.

4. The Civil Wars-

This is a band of two people (John-Paul White and Joy Williams), a piano, and a guitar. I love their music, especially these songs: Poison & Wine, Barton Hollow, and C'est la Mort. They won two Grammy's and were the opening act for Taylor Swift when she preformed there. They also were featured in Safe & Sound from the Hunger Games soundtrack, that's where I first heard about them. Their music is kind of folk/country, but it doesn't sound like regular country songs. It's somewhat confusing, but I love them a lot ;)

5. Adele-



I really don't care what anyone else says about Adele, she is marvelous. She knows exactly who she is and has a ton of talent. She also isn't afraid to show what she's thinking at all, and she is also just downright beautiful. Her music is amazing, and I think she is one of the best singers out there! -give me a fangirl moment- I love you Adele!! -done- ;)

So yes, these are a few of my favorite things! (Notice The Sound of Music reference there?) Well, there you have it!

Thanks for reading,

Livi <3



Marlowe!!

My BFFUTEOT told me to make a post about her, so here it is!!


Post about Marlowe Toney.

Snow!

Today, we had something we rarely get here in Lubbock Texas. . . SNOW! It began falling on my side of town at about eight a.m. and I went outside and took pictures in it, very happily. I am desperetaly hoping to have a snow day tomorrow, or atleast a delay so I can not have to be dragged out of bed by my mother. It's 2:51 right now, and the snow is still thundering down. My family and I went out to get some last minute gifts for my boyfriend Chris, (But I'm not gonna say what they are just in case he's reading this(;) and we nearly drove into a ditch. Yep, the entire time my mother was going: "Oh, Jesus! Oh, Jesus!" and I found it hysterical. We have a blue table on our porch that has survived through a ten day ice-storm in Kentucky, but right now it looks like this:

I honestly cannot believe it hasn't collapsed. Oh, and the lights behind it are still shining. I guess the St. Peter's get pretty good quality items. I also would like to say I got a book called Clockwork Angel , the prequel to the Infernal Devices series. My good friend from Kentucky, John Burke, said it was phenomonal. (I believe that's how you spell it, but I could be seriously incorrect)

Oh, and also I just realized HOT TOPIC IS SELLING HUNGER GAMES SHIRTS!!!! I get a mini heart-attack everytime I say that. Sorry, it just kinda popped into my head, so I decided to share ;)






Here are the pictures I took that I was talking to you about in my first paragraph. The sky is totally grey and it makes it hard to look at the ground, because your eyes start to hurt because the snow is so white.                                                                  

 This is my new profile picture on Facebook, just sayin'.

This is something I drew in the snow for Chris!! The wierd little plus sign looking thing by my name is an and sign btw, it looks all awkward and deformed so i decided to share that. Chris has been feeling "under the weather" the past few days, so I decided to post this on Facebook to let him know I miss him!! :D

Well, that's about it for this week, I hope everyone has a lovely Valentine's Day and let's pray for a snow day!! (No rhyme intended)

Superbowl and New Hair!!

Hey! It's me and for once my post isn't gonna be about writing! I'm gonna be short and sweet today, because I don't have all that much to talk about except:

My new hair!!! It's blackish, you can still see some of the blonde but once I wash it a few times I'm sure it'll be gone. I guess I was kinda tired of being blonde, but I am gonna miss being one of two seventh grade blonde girls at my school. Me and my BFF Rachel. She's beast. Nuff said ;) The first thing I ever said to her was:

"Excuse me could you please get your bag off my foot?" Haha, thats how I became peanut butter. THE END. hehe, nice story huh? We are both somewhat insane, we went to a halloween lock in as Bacon and Eggs. I was the egg. She was the bacon. Christian was THE KNIGHT. XD Haha, that night was beast. . . Especially considering almost all of us had all region the night after it and we kinda blew out our voices XD.... Ohhh choir. I <3 y'all. Here's a pic of me and rachel. It was hat day, but I decided to dress up like a pig (hence the pink long shirt). She wore a barret and I called her Raquel the rest of the day:

Sooo, the Superbowl is on tonight at 5:30! My family is for the Patriots because my mom thinks their players are cuter than the ones on the Giants. We don't really like either teams, but oh well XD So what team are you on?

Also, last week I told you I would show you a picture of the piece of paper with all of my editing stuff on it after I had made my short story excerpt thingy. Well here it is:

Haha, I am OCD all the way when it comes to my writing. I could hardly even read it when I was trying to type it on here XD So there you have it, me and my obsessiveness. Stay great and root for the Patriots!
