The Last Song.

Its official im on a Nicholas Sparks rampage. I just finished reading Dear John, and im an emotional wreck. The book is amazing. I read all day and night yesterday. I cant explain how inspiring this book was. It taught me that love is such a strong feeling. That it can last a lifetime. That no matter what happens we'll never stop loving. That when you truly love someone, you just want that person to be happy. Even if it means that that person isn't meant to be with you. Of course, its going to kill you from the inside out. And yes, you'll cry your eyes out asking yourself what you did wrong, but at the end of the day you have to be strong and focus on finding yourself something else that makes you happy. For me it all happened in one day, I shared a very special moment with my father and we hugged -- something we haven't done since i was a little girl -- and I think it was much needed on a day like yesterday when we both needed someone to care about us. Just someone to say its okay, everything is going to be fine. The worst part was that after this moment passed all I wanted to do was speak to the one person in the world that doesn't want anything to do with me. That was hard. That's never happened to me before and it was hard to hold my emotions in, but as always my mother is always there and of course my best friend in the world. Both did everything possible to comfort me with the hell of a day I had. Anyways, sorry Im rambling on about stuff you probably don't want to hear, but it just keeps coming out. So I've decided to read The Last Song by Nicholas Sparks also. And the movie comes out in April of this year. I can't wait. Once again thank you Hayley from The writer's Hollow. You have no idea how much this book meant to me. 


For those of you who haven't seen the trailer of The Last Song, click on the link below:

trust me, Im sure that its going to be another amazing book.
Im off to go buy it.

creative writing.

I am sitting in biology class learning about molecules and living organisms and all I can think about is reading Dear John ! So far i've only had time to read three chapters, which is killing me, because I want to find out what happens between Savannah and John. This book has me hooked. Nicholas Sparks always writes the best novels. Sparks has an intriguing way of showing human relationships and dilemmas that are never boring, always making you want to turn to the next page.

On the other hand, I just left my creative writing class and we had to turn in our first assignment today. We had to observe people and writing about them. The catch was that we could only show and there was no telling allowed. I have to admit that for me it was extremely difficult. I am not as experienced with writing that way and not being able to tell the reader something. I will say that the result of what I wrote was much better than what I usually write. And my teacher was shocked at how well I completed this assignment.

Below I will post my assignment, let me know what you guys think:

He sat up from the wooden chair. His sweater was white as the snow falling outside the glass window. The wind was beginning to pick up, and it was well near freezing outside. Everything covered by this plush pale ice, and when you touched it, it would numb your hand. Suddenly the expression on his face confused me. It went from a smirk to his lips pressing into a hard line. He had just been fine a moment ago, sipping on his coffee, reading quietly. I began to turn my head around and discreetly catch a glimpse of what caused the shocked look on his face.

    I spotted a young girl kissing a boy. Their clothes matched perfectly. Her brown Ed Hardy boots caught my attention, not a cheap item at any store. As I turned my head back the boy’s cheeks grew red and his sea green eyes bulged from their pale sockets. He rushed toward the glass window and rubbed his eyes, his fingers passed over his eyebrows, making the hairs stand and twist. His eyes grew wider as he pressed his nose against the window, his hands plastered flat on the glass. The couple stopped for a breath of air. The boy by the window banged against it, in horror, trying to catch their attention.

    The couples eyes let go of their lock and traveled to the window. They dropped their entwined fingers and almost lost their balance trying to separate from each other. The girl stood shocked. Her eyes opening, making the white over power her blue irises. Her body froze as if a bucket of ice cold water had just been thrown on top of her. The boy leaned on his right foot then left, hands in his pockets, eyes avoiding the glass window.  The boy on the other side of the window turned furiously, stomping his feet, cheeks flaming red. The girl placed her hand against the glass, her nails scraping against it as her lower lip trembled. Her fingers curled into tiny fists, she gripped her hands together so hard her knuckles turned white. She turned slowly, her hair falling in front of her face, covering her blue eyes as she faced the boy she was locking lips with before.
    The boy stared back at her, biting his lip, hesitating to say something, his lips opening and closing. Her legs began to tremble and her hand instinctively gripped her stomach, her lips pressed together, resisting the feel of something rising in her throat. He began to turn, his legs bending, his toes pressing against he ground, making the leather on his sneakers crack. She reached out her free hand, leaning to grab him. His eyes turned a subtle red and formed a glossy layer as he turned and walked away, shoulders hunched, hands one again in his pockets.




Thanks for reading ! (:

special thanks,

I know that I haven't been writing but I've been so busy with work, new classes, and spending time with loved ones. I have been accommodating my new schedule and its been pretty hectic. I just haven't had time to sit down and just write, although i have wanted to.

I had to write a thank you post to Hayley from The writer's hollow for my brand new "Dear John" book. Im so excited to read it. I can't wait to turn the pages on this beautiful book. Im so excited to read it that I have actually put the book im reading at the moment, Shadowland, on hold.

Besides all that im am happy to announce I had a breakthrough in one of my students. I actually had told her about Alyson Noel's Evermore before the winter break, and she actually came up to me, told me that she listened, and is reading the book. And guess what? She loves it ! (:
Im so happy that I at least got one of them into reading. Definitely made my day.

thanks for reading my post !

stay tuned for more...

Dear John; Set fire to the third bar.

Am I the only one whose excited to see Dear John featuring Amanda Seyfried and Channing Tatum? Well I just saw the trailer and im ecstatic ! I couldn't stop wanting to watch it, and then I realized why I didn't want to stop. Its because of the song on the trailer. Its an amazing song. It makes me think about what everything in the movie is going to be about and makes me want to write. I even looked up the lyrics. Im such a sucker for a good song. That's how movies catch my attention besides a good story.

Sleepless in Miami

Im dying over here. I want to leave this town for a bit. I want to explore the world. I want to take an adventure anywhere. Don't get me wrong, I love Miami. I just feel like I need a vacation. I would love to just get in my car right now and drive off for a weekend. Just pack my bags and head North. Someone please get me out of here !

I think for now I'll take an adventure where ever my dreams take me.
goodnight to all.




This made me laugh, I thought i should share.


hilarious ! (:
