Say Something baby *Drake Voice*

Seriously though!! If you pass through my blog (regularly or by chance), SAY SOMETHING! What you like, dislike...just to say hi, I don't care. I'll never know you're there unless you follow my blog OR say something. :)

Eating Animals by Jonathan Safran Foer

Saturday I finished one of the most remarkable books I may ever have the pleasure of reading. It took me three days, but it was worth it to say the very least.


I remember coming across a video about the book last year and making a mental note to Google more info. Well, OBVIOUSLY I forgot about it! However, browsing through my college's library, I stumbled across the bright leaf colored book(I wish I had sooner). I decided to check it out...now I'm making my mother read it(ok she volunteered to read it). It's everything I hoped it would be and MORE. If you eat ANYTHING you should read this book.

Vega-WHHATT?

I had an assignment in my English class; Write a definition essay, MLA format,no less than 3 pages. I wrote the paper on the definition of Vegan. At first it wasn't coming together. You would think that I'd be able to write a brilliant paper in an instant because It's ...my LIFE. It's always the innate things that are the hardest to write about. I asked myself "If you had to define WOMAN would it be this hard?". I answered YES.
I am a perfectionist when it comes to english papers. I have to be absolutely satisfied with my work in order to turn it in. It's more because I'm worried about how I'm represented on paper and less about my letter grade. I finished writing my paper 45 minutes before my class started. Not confident it was my best work, I decided that my paper was as good as it was going to get.
That was last Thursday. Yesterday I got the paper back. I slowy turned back the first page to see my grade, FULLY expecting no higher than a B if my professor was generous. There it was glowing and dancing off the page. I got an A. I read it over and realized it was better than I thought. My teacher even asked to keep a copy.

I'm BEYOND happy. Now I want to get it published...
