Slight Hiatus

I had every intention of posting a 'writing journey' entry this week (I even started writing one!), but then the 'oh my goodness, I'm about to leave for Germany and I'm not that ready' hysteria kicked in and well, today I board a plane and I'm not really going to care about this blog for the next ten days :)

However, I'll be back at it when I come back and I'm sure that I'll annoy everyone with my stories. See you soon!!!

MY FIRST VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

via GIPHY

So, before you watch it (if you decide to waste your time to do such a thing...), here are some things about this video.

1) I really need to stop touching my nose. For those of you that know me, you know I have this problem. It was really bad the first time I tried to make this video.

2) I really need to stop saying "um" because, um, that's, um, ridiculously annoying.

3) This was actually pretty fun to put together and I'm already planning my next video... I've unleashed something I'm not sure I can take back :)

4) Don't judge me on good or bad this is. If you have tips for future videos, I'll take 'em!

So sit back, relax, and learn a little bit about me!!

P.S. Check out the video on youtube for spellings on the books I mention :)

Celebrity Crush

Naomi and Bee were at my apartment to have a girl’s night and watch Against the Wall when he showed up. Unfortunately I was too busy trying to get the right cheese consistency in the microwave when he knocked, so Naomi answered the door. She started saying her stereotypically lengthy ‘hello,’ but only made it through ‘hell-’ before faltering and finishing with a confused ‘oh.’ I chuckled, but didn’t move towards the door to see who it was because I cared way more about my cheese dip.

At least, until I heard the words, “Uh, hi.” Then I froze and my rotating bowl of artificial cheese was quickly forgotten. Because I knew this voice - I had loved this voice. And for once, it wasn’t coming from my TV. “Does Ellie live here?”

Yup, I definitely lived here. But how he had found me, I had no idea. Just like I had no idea how to move my feet towards the door. I just stood there, staring at the giant wooden barrier, knowing a man I used to love stood on the other side.
