SPIFFEH.

Duddeee. I got a new blog layout. *cackle*

EFFIE. AGAIN.

Kristin Chenoweth. Nuff said.  Where she's been in: Wicked. And some other Broadway musicals.

Why she could be Effie: The smile, the looks- she just needs the wig. And she's just brilliant.

Quote of the Day

Sorry about the not putting up the quote. Laziness gets to you. -.-

:D

I found the PERFECT Rachel Elizabeth Dare! Her name is Madisen Beaty, and she looks like this:

Why she could be Rachel:
- She can act (Curious Case of Benjamin Button, small appearance in iCarly)
- She has the red hair.
- She can curl her hair, and it was like that in iCarly.
- Seriously, doesn't she just scream RACHEL?

:D

Had an epic water bottle fight with my friends today.

Uh Oh.

Okay, so I'm going to be going to NYC from Friday to Sunday, so I won't be posting on those days. So, I shall be updating the Quote of the Day thing today.

While I'm doing that, marvel this Hunger Games fan art, called "The Men of the Hunger Games" by burdge_bug. I do stuff like post fan art because I cannot draw myself. XD

Guess what? :)

Okay, I'm officially turning this blog into a book-ish thing blog. Yes, I still will be the same random Jenn and post the same random things. But along with that, I'm having a lot of book related stuff, too. Like, discussions for books like the Hunger Games, Maximum Ride, Harry Potter, Percy Jackson, Gemma Doyle, etc. Also, quote of the weeks, fan art, and fanfictions.

Don't worry, my funny stories are still going to be on here, and my random singing. Trust me. (Ooh, I love that song! :D)

Enjoy the new change, people!

Also, TELL PEOPLE ABOUT THE BLOG. PLEASSEEEE. :D

FANG review

Fang by James Patterson


My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Okay, personally, due to MAX and The Final Warning, I'm not really sure if I should go out and buy this. The series kind of went downhill starting with The Final Warning. Okay, Max is supposed to save the world. Good plot.

Now Max has to save the world and stop global warming!

James Patterson is just piling everything on. Seriously, SAVE IT FOR ANOTHER SERIES. Those two ideas are very good ideas, but put together, it's just a little too much. I really hope this will be worth reading, because I'm checking my library every single day to see if they've started the pre-ordering so I can be first on the reserve list. XD

Now, is down (sorry, listening to music) time for the actual review. I'm not actually done, but I shall be done with it soon. Very soon. *laughs evilly*

*coughs* Forget that ever happened.

Ahh. I loved this book and I hated it.


**Spoilers ahead, maybe**

Pros:

-It was funny
-It made me love Iggy even more (:3)
-It made me, basically, heartbroken
-Okay conflict... I guess. .-.
-The Fang stuff in the end XD

Cons:

-Plotless. PLOTLESS PLOTLESS PLOTLESS. I do not get it. At. All.
-Focusing too much on romance, not enough on the entire saving the world/global warming thing. But really, who gives a crap when Max and Fang can be together? *rolls eyes*
-Dylan: he's one of those annoying, invincible characters. Dude, are you flawed? Because if he is, I don't like him. He's too superior to others, even though he acts like he's not.
-Fang. Ahh, why'd he have to go? Why? I would've cried if I were a crierer. Er. God, Max is going to go all "Bella Swan" and mope. Max would be like an empty shell if Fang were gone; it would be like losing her other half. *cough* Not Dylan *cough* I'm sorry. I have a sore throat. ._.
-The every chapter changing POV. What's up with that?
-Wait. Why is Max's hair color always changing?!? First it's strawberry blond, then blond, then brown... ._. WTF.

Ooh, dang. This sounds like I totally hated this. But the truth is, I didn't. It wasn't that horrible. Just... I don't know. It wasn't well written, but I still liked it, if you know what I mean. Ookay, discussion time on the stuffs.

Wait, no. I must do my English homework and shower first. *shall edit in like, 20 minutes*

Okay. Discussion time!

1.) Angel:

She seems evil, she seems not evil. What's up with that? I truly think that she was corrupted when she was kidnapped in the first book. But I hope that she turns good, she's just so sweet. :3 Anyways, one other thing is, Max keeps trying to side with her even though she knows that she's evil at times. Oh, Max. *makes tsk tsk sound*

2.) The School:

Okay, Max mentioned that the line of schools was wiped out. When did this happen...? If you know, comment. Because I'm confused.

3.) The scientists:

Every. Single. Book. Every single book, there is a new scientist. Why can't James Patterson just stick to the good ol' Whitecoats? What the crap, now there's Mr. Chu, Mr. I-Don't-Know-His-Name, Mr. Weird-Accent-Dude, and Mr. Brain-on-a-Stick-or-something-I-Don't-Remember. And the worst part is, they're like, all the same. Pick an evil villain, Patterson. You have tons.

4.) Mr. Chu:

I'm so confused. His real name is Robert, and he's a freak? *pokes comment box* Reply to my question, please, because I have no idea.

5.) FANGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG:

Oh my god oh my god oh my god. Fang! *mopes* I could not believe that he left. That's just not right. AT ALL. Well, at least he didn't die. But oh my gosh, we was just really heartfelt in that letter, and I couldn't believe everything that he said. Even though his personality has definitely changed since Max and Fang got together in MAX (dude, that doesn't sound right...), he's been more talkative and everything. But this is a COMPLETELY different side of Fang. I like it... I think.

**SPOILERS OVER**

In all, it was an okay book. Okay enough to read. Not good enough to buy and waste your money.

Unless you are really in love with this series and don't notice the flaws sometimes. Then you should buy it. :)

One last comment: IGGY IS MINE. MINE.

Sorry. :P

Sorry for the lack of posting. XD Um... Yeah, I think that's it.

BOOK REVIEW! :3

The Maze Runner by James Dashner


My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Okay, the truth is, this was actually a 4.9999999999999999999998. I don't know where the random eight came from, but still, there are just little things that bothered me.

For example, James Dashner's overuse of semi-colons. I swear, I saw one like, every page. That just kinda bothered me. I love semi-colons, but seriously. Don't use them THAT much.

**SPOILERS COMING UP**

Then, there was Thomas being just too "all knowing," if you know what I mean.
"THOMAS! YOU CAN BE A RUNNER!"
"THOMAS! YOU FIGURED OUT THE SECRET TO THE MAZE!"
"THOMAS! YOU HAVE A TELEPATHIC CONNECTION TO TERESA!" Is anyone really that smart and special? Yes, I understand that he's the main character, they're kinda supposed to be like that at times, and I know they're kinda geniuses, but still. It annoyed me. It's my opinion, but I just don't like it when authors create characters like that, like Percy from PJO, Harry from HP. They know they're flawed, but there's just that little twinge on the inside that tell me that the author just wanted them to be kind of superior.

**SPOILERS OVER**

Lastly, there was the simplicity of the writing. I love simple writing, but when it's like that, there's a deeper meaning inside. This wasn't like that. It was just, "Thomas was hungry."

Uh huh. Did I really need to know that? I'm hungry, too, but I'm not exactly writing it as my Facebook status. Okay, maybe I do, but people give me virtual food, that's why, so shut up, you people that think I'm hypocritical. *shakes fist angrily*

Now, on to the complimenting part. ;D

There was a great plot, and that you know, X-Factor that just made me want to keep reading. It's like chocolate in a recipe. You keep on eating and eating until you get fat- Okay, maybe that's not the best analogy. But you know what I mean. I see you nodding. Okay, I don't. So I'll just pretend you're nodding, whether you like it or not.

Anyways, I liked reading and seeing the characters grow closer towards each other, etc, like Newt and Thomas.

Also, the ending was excellent, really, because seriously, if I wake up at eight in the morning, on a SATURDAY, it means I'm either hungry or need to read a really good book. It was both, but I decided to read in my pajamas. Then I went to poop, but that's not the point. ANYWAYS.

I liked watching the plot unravel, and the secrets getting revealed. Well, I think that's it for this review, unless you want me to start dictating the lyrics to Make it Mine by Jason Mraz. Yeah, I don't think so.

So, I really recommend this book to anyone who likes sci-fi. It's not really a hard to understand book, even though it's considered "young adult". Unless you're one of those people that get annoyed at the smallest things, like me. Or is it like I? I think it's like I. *mutters incoherently* But seriously, read it. :3

EFFIE?

EFFIE: MIRANDA RICHARDSON, ANYONE? SHE PLAYED RITA SKEETER IN HARRY POTTER.

OKAY, SO MAYBE SHE'S A LITTLE OLD. JUST ADD SOME MAKEUP, STICK ON A PINK WIG, AND VOILA. SHE WOULD BE A PRETTY GOOD EFFIE. :D

:D

I. ♥. ASIAN. PARTIES.

NEW STOREH.

REMIND ME TO POST ANOTHER SCARY STORY UP. BAH.

*tackles*

HEY YA'LL.

WELL. I THINK THAT'S IT.

RAWR!

O.o

OH MY GODSH.

OKAY, SO I HAVE A STORY TO TELL YA'LL.

SO, WE HAD AN ASIAN PARTY. AKA TALKING WITH MY FRIEND AND LISTENING TO MY iPOD. AND THEN CAME AFTER THE CLEANUP.

THE ENTIRE CAFETERIA WAS TURNED INTO A DANCEFLOOR, AND THEN HALF OF THE PARENTS GOT ON THE FLOOR. AND THEN DANCED.

AND THAT'S WHEN BAD ROMANCE CAME ON. THE PARENTS DANCED. AND PAYED NO ATTENTION TO "I WANT YOUR PSYCHO YOUR VERTICAL STICK" AND "I'M A FREE BITCH BABY." SO. FREAKY. I'M MENTALLY SCARRED FOR LIFE.

AND THEN SOME OF THE YOUNGER KIDS, LIKE PEOPLE IN MIDDLE SCHOOL AND HIGH SCHOOL STARTED LIKE, TANGOING.

THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I ALREADY SAID TO TWO OTHER PEOPLE, BUT STILL.

I'M SCARED.

HUNGER GAMES CAST- MY PICKS

Katniss- Ellen Page:

I personally think she could play Katniss because
1.) She can act.
2.) She just has that look to her that screams "Katniss" in my opinion.
3.) With a little hair dye, her hair would be the perfect shade (sleek and black)

Now let's see if she can sing. But you know, there's always lip-synching. *shrugs*

Peeta- Haven't found anyone

Gale- Haven't found anyone. If you can find a good Gale (which, I know is IMPOSSIBLE), COMMENT. PLEASE. He just has one of those hard to place faces where really, only your imagination can see. >_<

Prim- Elle Fanning or Abigail Breslin:

Okay, so she's the perfect age, and with like hair dye and stuff, she could be Prim. And she can act. That's definitely important.





http://justjared.buzznet.com/photo-gallery/1761911/elle-fanning-phoebe-in-wonderland-premiere-05/

Okay. I couldn't get the picture on. But seriously, Elle Fanning is also the perfect age, perfect hair, can act, blah blah blah. The skin's great, too.

And if you're like, their eyes aren't the right color, I'll just say there's a thing called colored contacts these days.

Haymitch- Robert Downey Jr.

Well, for one, he can act, and he just's how I imagined Haymitch to be. All he has to do is act drunk and kinda depressed. Not hard.









More later. :P

Fare thee well. *waves*

TEH FANFIC OF FANFICNESS FANFIC. FANFIC. MWAHAHAHAZ!

EHEHEHE. I'M GOING TO POST LIKE ALMOST ALL OF MY FIRST CHAPTER OF THE FANFIC.

ALMOST. IF YOU WANT TO READ MORE, GO TO THIS LINK: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5752454/1/The_Return_of_Typhon

WELL. HERE'S THE FANFIC. NAME IN THE MAKING, I JUST HAVE A TEMPORARY ONE FOR NOW.

             I strolled around my dorm room, admiring the oh so beautiful view of the polluted East River. Yeah. Just great. Watching the river roll, one particular thought came to me. I remember two years ago, my best friend, now boyfriend, plunged into the waters to stop Kronos from getting into Manhattan by water to protect his beloved city.

             Anyways, I was wandering around the room, looking for something to do. I had done all of my homework. Well, at least the stuff that wasn’t due the next day. And then it hit me as I tripped over my phone. Hey, why don’t I IM Camp Half-Blood? You know, see how it was going. Plus, I didn’t have anything better to do.

             Apparently, someone had already had the idea to Iris Message me. It was Chiron. When I looked closer, I realized that Percy was in the background. Soon, I realized that their faces were grim. I frowned.

             “What’s wrong?” I asked. I looked at them, expecting the worst.

             “We don’t know if what we’ll tell you is true, Annabeth,” Chiron murmured. “So we would just like you to come to camp. Is that alright?” I shrugged slowly.

             “I guess so.” Yeah, right. I hated when people kept things from me, when they were so freaking vague.

             “Sure, Chiron. See you guys soon,” I mumbled, and disconnected the message.

I looked around my room. Who knew what was going to happen, how long I was going to stay at camp? Running around, getting things to put in a duffel, which, by the way, I still hadn’t found (but that’s not the point), thoughts swirled around my head. Let’s see what could’ve happened. Uh, let’s see- EVERYTHING. In the world of demigods, anything and everything can happen. That’s what makes our sad lives so interesting.
             “You know what?” I said out loud. “I’ll find out soon enough. Focus on packing, Annabeth. Oh, great, I’m talking to myself. Oh, stress. What it can do to a supposedly sane person.” I laughed bitterly. “Whatever.” I grabbed my camp t-shirt and a pile of clothes from my closet. Swiping some pants, I looked for my duffel bag. Oh, great. I couldn’t find the stupid duffel bag. It took a while for me to realize that it was in my hands. Whoops... I stuffed all of my clothes in there, along with Daedalus’s laptop, my phone, my flip-flops, a canteen of nectar, a bag of ambrosia, who-knows-how-many drachmas, and two rolls of American currency. I slipped on my sweatshirt, put on the hood, and I was off.

             Out of habit, I checked my neck to see if my charm was on my camp necklace. Slowly, the charm changed into my new, magical knife, Bloodlash, after I had tapped it softly. Now, let me give you some background on this new, freakishly awesome knife. I got it for my 17th birthday, since a certain demigod’s prophecy resulted in my knife being well… Incinerated. I touched a certain part of the knife, and it transformed back into the charm. But wait, you’re probably thinking. What if I’m in the middle of battle, and I accidentally touch that part? Then, I would be disarmed. Oh, dear, how devastating. Well. Here’s where the “magic” part comes in, besides being able to turn into a charm (which, by the way, is a very pretty knife charm. It’s shiny, too). It can sense- no, know when you’re in battle. So it won’t transform into a charm. So what’s been proven? Awesome things can be as little as a charm.

             Oops. Getting off topic again. Anyways, I rushed out of my room and headed down to the principal’s office of my school, Ezeens Academy for Gifted Teens (I know, stupidest name ever. And I realized that Ezeens is sneeze backwards).

             “Principal Keys, I need to go visit my um, mother,” I lied, hoping that I could think of something. “My brother just called.” The principal looked at me skeptically, like, Yeah right. Crap. It wasn’t working.

Very well then, I thought, and then snapped my fingers. No, I wasn’t practicing for a musical. I was manipulating the Mist.

             “Okay, then,” Principal Keys said. Relief flooded inside me. Yes. I could go. With that note, I ran outside, hailing a taxi.

             “Where to, miss?” the driver asked. Oh, how many times I had been through this. I smiled and said,
             “I don’t know. I think I just want to go out of the city, in the country. I’ll tell you when to stop.” The man shrugged, and replied,

             “Sure.” So I got into the cab, and he drove me away.

             About an hour passed. Once I realized that we had passed Camp Half-Blood, I shouted,

             “STOP! I’d like to stop here.”

             “There’s nothing here,” the driver commented. I shrugged as I handed him a roll of mortal cash.              “Don’t really care,” I replied as I got out of the cab and glanced quickly at Half-Blood Hill, where Percy and I had raced at the end of the summer two years ago, the unforgettable summer where Percy had fulfilled the Great Prophecy. But that’s not the point.

             “Thank you!” I yelled, waving. As soon as he was out of sight, I started to climb up the hill. Once I reached the top I looked at Thalia’s Pine, said hi to Peleus, and then, I looked down at Camp Half-Blood. I inhaled slowly, as if taking it all in. The rock wall had lava pouring down it. Campers were canoeing, fighting drakons, and all of that happy stuff. I smiled sadly. So many things, both good and bad, had happened at the camp. Thalia being turned into a tree, the Battle of the Labyrinth, the chariot races, Rachel becoming the Oracle… No, I reminded myself. I wasn’t there for sentimental memories, I was there to talk to Percy and Chiron so I could find out whatever was wrong, about important matters. Right. So, I sprinted down Half-Blood Hill, to the cabins, threw my duffel bag on my bunk, and started to run towards the Big House.

             I wandered to the porch and looked for Percy or Chiron. Seeing if either one was there, I looked inside the window. In the Big House, I saw Chiron talking to Percy. Naturally, I walked in.

             “Hi,” I said, grinning. Percy and Chiron immediately turned. “Annabeth,” Chiron said. “Thanks for coming.”

             “Hey, Annabeth,” Percy greeted, with a strained smile. I immediately frowned, my eyebrows crinkling together.

             “Tell me what’s wrong.”

             “Annabeth, I’m very sorry to say this, but we think that Typhon is stirring again.”

THERE MIGHT BE SOME GRAMMATICAL ERRORS, BUT THAT'S BECAUSE I'M TRYING TO MAKE HER SOUND AS HUMAN AS POSSIBLE, SPEAKING IN FRAGMENTS. AH, WE'RE SUCH MORONS.

EHeheheh

Sorry ya'll, I've been a little busy with writing the fanfic and HW. And boring life. Nothing makes me post less than boring life.
