~Obsessed~

Ever been obsessed with a book? I mean OBSESSED!  You read them multiple times, buy shirts, posters, the movie, you constantly talk about it, or randomly start thinking about it... Well, I am currently obsessed with a book series by Stephenie Meyer. There are four books in the series, Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, and Breaking Dawn. They are very odd books. They are all about the love between a human girl (Bella), and a vampire (Edward). Oh, and Bella's best friend is a werewolf (Jacob). Sound interesting? Oh, it is!

I first heard of the series from flair, a Facebook application. I would say that the series was stupid and people were crazy for reading them. Then I read them. I was instantly hooked! I read all four books within a week! (by the way, they all had from 500-800 pages in each one) In fact, I am reading them all for the second time! I am mostly reading them again because I missed a lot of the book due to skimming. But, I also don't want to leave the characters. I feel like I know them! I even did the whole sides thing. You know, "Team Edward" or "Team Jacob" (I pick Edward) :) Today, my mom and I went to Hot Topic to get me a shirt, and came home with two. One has my favorite character's face on it (Jasper), and the other has Edward himself on it. 

It is sad really. How we can get pulled into the things of this world. Pastor Jared taught our wednesday night class last week, and it got me thinking. Here I am, obsessed with these books, and what I should really be obsessed with is Christ. I know, I should already know that! For goodness sakes I call myself a christian! I do know that, but I tend to forget. Actually, I forget a lot. Thank you God for your grace!

~Great Friends, Great Food~

It was so great to be able to spend the evening with two great friends. My parents and I went over to Mike's house, and had dinner with him and his roommate, Kyle. They have the cutest house! I couldn't believe how clean it was! There was NOTHING out of place. Even Mike's room was clean. Of course, Mike didn't show us Kyle's room... maybe that is where they hid everything. We ate dinner, which was very good! Kyle loved it so much he ate two entire pieces of chicken and a ton of potatoes! Oh yeah, he also had corn. When we were cleaning up, I had to put something in the fridge. I opened the wrong door on accident, and saw four tubs of ice cream, along with many TV dinners. Mike laughed at my expression and told me that the ice cream in the freezer was only half of what Kyle had brought home! Apparently the ice cream was on sale for $1.99, and he couldn't decide which flavor to get... so he just got them all! Now thats the way to buy!

~New Adventure~

So, I decided to start a blog. This will be interesting! The closest think I have ever done to blogging is a note every once in a while on Facebook. It may take some time for me to get into the habit of writing everyday. If you have any tips for me please share!
