It has obviously been a while since my last post. I've been rather preoccupied with college things, Christmas, work, and video games, not to mention the novels that I have to read before winter break is over (Their Eyes Were Watching God and Invisible Man). I'm alternating right now between Invisible Man and The Lightning Thief, a children's book that I adore and have finally gotten to read.

On another note, I discovered The Weepies today; they're a band that reminds me of Damien Rice, or what he would have sounded like before his cello-playing lover jilted him. I'm really enjoying them right now.

I can't decide if this blog will be transformed shortly or if it shall continue to be my personal space...as I also want to begin posting about books that I read and commenting on their beauty or lack thereof concerning their marketing, jackets, editorial mistakes (or, again, lack thereof) as I think that the practice will be eye-opening for me. I have a feeling that I will begin another blog for that, as my uncle suggested. (Thanks again!)

I have had an amazing year in many respects...and I know that 2009, the year I've waited for my entire life, will be just as great. To all of you and yours, happy new year.
