1 thing 2 do 3 words 4 you ♥

1234 - Plain White T's
If you haven't heard it, you really need to checkkkkkkk it.

Alright, so basically my march break has consisted of avioding my saxophone and just hanging with my friends, and sleeping untill noon everyday :]
Emma, I would just like to notify you that i do own MAX, i just haven't finished the book i'm currently reading so that I can read it.

I don't know about any of you, but today i bought my own personal copy of Twilight on DVD. My mom never got the chance to see it so i watched it with her, she laughed when Jacob walked in with his long hair. She also shares my opinion on Robert Pattinson being really good , but finding Bella to be a downer. I remember some of you guys not liking Bella's Lullaby, but I actually really like it, enough that i'm taking it up on piano, its quite hard but i'm getting it.

Anywhoss, I tried sushi for the first time since i was like 7, and enjoyed it . I also went to see He's Just Not That Into You with Sophie and her sister, it was gooood.
Whoaaa i can't think of much else to blog on, hope you guys had a crazyyyyyy goood spring break!

In Response To Cody...

1. Yes, Sparknotes has saved my life various times. Only, it can't make me like Twelfth Night. I don't read Shakespeare under pressure. For example, while I was reading Hamlet out of my own personal interest, it was a lovely help to understand. Twelfth Night is a comedy that isn't even funny.

2. Yeah, you can borrow my copy of MAX. Don't bother reading the 4th, anything that you missed is easy to pick up on- and you didn't miss much in the first place. Oh, here's an interview about the book with James Patterson.

3. I would love to share with you and Tasmeea the date you can buy my book, but until I hear a response from the editors, I have no idea if there will even be a date. And btw, you would end up with an ARC no matter what.

That's it for now. I shall leave you with a quote from Platinum.

"I'm a dreamer
hisomu POWER."

I don't remember what it means, but the song is awesome and from a great show.

Owie :(

Well everyone, I hope your March Breaks are going well.
So far, mine has consisted of homework, which isn't really that fun if you ask me. I finished all my Shakespeare homework (thanks to Sparksnotes, and Emma who recommended it), and am now trying to wire my house. I electrocuted myself. It wasn't fun. It hurts a lot. Don't do it. All I was trying to do was mkae a simple circuit, and next thing I new my hand was in pain and the wires were bright red, so there's a possibility I almost set my house on fire aswell. In the end, I triumphed and made a series circuit that met the specifications.

Tomorrow should be better because I'm going to Yorkville with my Nana. We don't actually think we're going to buy anything because it's very expensive, but you know window shopping could be fun. :)

Thursday I have two parties to attend, one of which is in the afternoon, the other lasts allll night longgg! That's right people, I'm going to get my party on!

Emma, I haven't read the Max book because well, I never read the fourth one. I'm thinking of just skipping it. Is there any way I could borrow it off you? While I'm talking about books, my friend Tasmeea read my wonderful (note the sarcasm) summary of Emma's book, and now reallly wants to read it. So for my sake, and Tasmeea's, let me know when I can buy it!

NEAL PATRICK-HARRIS! That's right everybody, I finally saw Harold and Kumar 2, and omg! Neal Patrick-Harris is my hero! Just the unicorn thing, I don't think i'll ever stop laughing. Also, as you may know, I am Neal Patrick Harris because of a random hyper incident provoked at my cottage, in which Thea decided I was his reincarnation.

Well there you have it folks. My life in a nut-shell right now. (hehehehe nuts)

Cody

AHhh...

Fang and Max, Max and Fang.
Faxness.

You have read the book by now, right? It came out yesterday, so if you haven't, I truly don't understand.
MAX was way better than the fourth, but still not as good as the first three in my opinion.

Who remembers Cardcaptors? I do! And I love it even more now that I've found the original full-length uncensored version of the show on Youtube, plus its two movies.
Shoaran and Meilin Li are the BEST.
Kero's pretty awesome too.

So, who's going to blog about their March Break? That's pretty much all that mine has consisted of so far.
And a colossal stomach ache. And some pyjamas.

Fill me in!

My IQ Is WHAT?!

Okay..so I have this contest with my boyfriend..to see who can get the highest score on an IQ test. We would search for random ones and do them to see who would get higher. 
He's beaten me twice. 
I think I just won XD 
So here's how it went...We took one the first time..I had an IQ of 106 with the average being about 100, right? He scored 111. Damn! So we tried again, with a different one. He stole 3 IQ point from my brain I think. Explaining Ionic  Bonding to him was a badd idea :p I ended up with 103 and he ended up with 114.  
I just took the test a moment ago. 
Guess what? 
129 ! 
OH YEAH! WHO WINS ?! :D 
Shauna does 
*Dances* 
Too bad he's not around for me to tell him. 


Anyways...enough of my brain. 
Tomorrow I'm going to Tim Ho's to meet a friend. 
She's always hyper. 
Is coffee really the greatest idea? 
I seem to think so. 

*Yawnnn* 
Why am I so tired ? 
It's only 10..I should be out partying not here sleeping. 
Sleep....sleepp...
I need to go sleep.
I'll blog again tomorrow maybe. 
Nightt ! 
.xo Shauna <3

:O

CODY.
Most of us read Wicked Lovely a VERY long time ago.
It's fabulous, and Catholicism isn't the point.
Its SETH.

And if Wondrous Strange is a hardcover now, that means it's incredibly successful, because less than a month ago, it only premiered in paperback. That's a very good sign.
And remember, its going to be a TV series next season, so just keep looking for it and READ IT.

Although!! My GPA was a 90, which is awesomeness in a box :)

Emma, i went to buy that book you recommended, the one that aws like a modern Mid-Summer's Night Dream, but couldn't because my dad was being cheap and owuldn't buy it in hardcover.

Guess what ?!

I'm bacckk :) 
Okay, sorry about that huge absence. As you know, I'm in I.B. and omgg what work ! 
We're doing slope and factoring and stuff that's well..kind complicated. Shakespeare in english, we have to build a house for science, complicated french tests. 
I like it though. 
It's all good. 
I didn't expect to make it to the Tamakwa trip back in September, yet here I am. Still dying from work overload. 
Anywayss..my summer was great. Lots of traveling to near-by places..if that even COUNTS as traveling ! 
Woww I'm tired. 
I got up at 5:30 this morning to do my math and gym homework which I didn't do the night before coz I had science homework that took all night, and my doggy was here :) 
Sukii ! What a cutie ! :) It's my Nan's friend's dog. They just got back from Florida. 
Anyone ever had florida oranges ? They're to die for ! Soo much better than the stuff that you get in grocery stores ! 
Hm...what to talk about..
Today after school I took the bus down to my friend's house. 
She lives on Scarlet Road so we went to this park thing...walked along this little river thing. Anyways, we come to a bridge and went to hang out underneath it. 
Of course she wasn't wearing her glasses and couldn't see anything so we're walking along and I'm not really paying attention and we almost walk RIGHT into this stupid Canadian Goose that's just sitting there, like, drowning itself. 
Her and I left it to it's misery and continued walking, found a path and walked along that. 
I was looking around in the woods when I saw this HUGE purple thing so we went to investigate it. Turned out to be this big kiddy pool thing. It was awesome. Her and I decided to keep walking along and I come around a tree..only to come face to face with A DEAD BEAVER ! 
It's eyes were gone, it was ripped open, no blood, but I could see the skeleton of it...still had fur. I saw like the dried up stomach and I was poking it with a stick when I realized it had no tail...
yeeahh...:| 
It was kinda funny though coz I just couldn't stop freaking out about how gross it really was. Another thing that's started up since I last blogged is Queensblood ! ...sort of. 
Emma and I's band. 
We really do need to practice sometime. 
I've also been to quite a few theatre productions. Okay, so like, two but still. that's double every thing I've ever seen in my life :p 
Last month I went and saw The Sound Of Music. Meh. It was okay. Wouldn't really pay that much to go see it again though. 
And this passed Wednesday I went with the band to go see Dirty Dancing. 
Anyone ever seen that firl from Like With Derek ? Casey what's-her-face? 
She played the lead girl, Baby. :) 
She's an okay dancer but she didn't sing. She was supposed to SING ! 
Okay, well this seems enough writing for now. 
I'm tired. Going to bed so I can get up bright and early tomorrow to..work all day on homework XD 
I'll write again soon ! :)
.xo Shaunaa <3 
P.S. OMG it's like 14*C outside ! I lovee it ! 

Countdown...

9 days until MAX!

17 days until City of Glass!

Plus, an interview before the release by Cassandra Clare. Remember that she'll be here on April 25th!

Don't Let The Blog Die!

Come on guys, the blog has existed for over a year now. We can't give up on it!

Okay, I'm sick. So I was rereading Ingo today.
Of course, that age-old question of "How do the Mer have sex?" Came up.
I have decided to clear this up for you all, as strange as it sounds. We need answers.

As you know, the Mer have seal tails. This is the area in which their parts are, leading me to believe that since Faro doesn't wear clothes, Sapphire has seen these parts many, many times. Remember how she stares at his tail when she first meets him, and he's laughing because she gets embarrassed at staring? It may blend into the tail, but these facts exist.
So, assuming that female parts are the same as seals too- and therefore better hidden- Mer sex must be similar to seal sex. It's sort of like dogs, except you consider the shape of their bodies and the idea that sometimes the male contorts until he lays down beside her.
Also- this action happens on land. So if Mer that have no Air in them - unlike Faro and Elvira- cannot leave Ingo, it may happen on different surfaces underwater too, such as a bed-type thing like Saldowr has.

Now, let's take into consideration the new relationship between Faro and Sapphy.
While in the books they never even kiss, they do determine that they will next time she returns to Ingo, and after peace has settled. So, Faro being Mer, and Sapphy being human would change the way sex works for them.
Consider this - Faro has the classic seal tale, and Sapphy is the same shape as us, but because the male in the relationship is the Mer and the female is the human, it would simply be a matter of their own personal preferences - seal and human style would work. (Creepy as that sounds.)
If the human had been the male and the Mer the female it's harder to guess, but I assume it's a mix between the two because of their body shapes. Unless someone else has an idea, we may have to refer to Helen Dunmore for an official answer.

As a conclusion; Faro and Sapphy's sex life will be just fine once they decided who's moving to the other's world.

Also- who's dying for MAX? I read the excerpt (which you need to read by the way) and I can't wait until the 16th! It's during break too so we can just read, read, read!

And then...

CITY OF GLASS!

I'm dying I tell you! Dying!
(And not just because I'm sick.)

BLOG!!!
