I read Looking For Alaska a long time ago. I thought it was okay... nothing AMAZING though.

Have you finished it by now?

Aww, shy guy.

It's cute.

And you aren't that quiet when I call you on Skype.

Which we haven't done in a very long time. We need to.

:]

[dwood2001]

Ugh, nope. I'm useless with books lately. It's like there's always something I end up doing instead and then I regret it when I look back at the end of each week. I need to get my priorities straight.

Amazing or not, the guy who wrote it definitely is: vlogbrothers on YouTube.

:) I'm glad you think so. Most people just find it awkward and difficult. But yeah, I guess I'm not too bad with you. It helped that we had those questions though.

We should definitely talk again soon!

I'm the same way. I'm silent as a mouse in a crowd, even with people I know really well. I'm much better with one on one communication. It causes me to be much more talkative than a lot of my friends when I'm talking to them online. I remember when I got back in touch with one of my friends from high school a couple years ago they were surprised that I was so much more talkative. And, what was surprising to me was my friend was actually less talkative than I remembered them being in high school.

Um, this is David. Apparently my sister's used her account on my computer without asking.

[ibelieveinnargles]

Yeah, it's so hard though.

I never liked drama, but I think that's just because of how it was taught at school over here. You'd prepare something with a group of people who aren't really into drama (because it was compulsory), they wouldn't practise enough, and you'd be left unrehearsed to make a fool of yourself in front of the class. (Including people who bullied me.) So I loathed it. Maybe I would have liked it with people who were serious about it.

I know exactly how you feel. Unless I'm with someone I know REALLY well, I'm usually as silent as the grave. (Well, not that bad, but close to it). I have to be dragged out of my shell kicking and screaming and I do feel like it holds me back. Especially being an actress. When I'm on stage, I'm a completely different person. Off stage, however, people very surprised to find that I'm actually the mousy girl in the corner reading a book and not speaking to anyone. I'm trying to get better though!

Boring, next!

[lumosdawlish]

Every day IS Harry Potter day!

Looking for Alaska = <3

I love you!

Also, I know what you mean about being shy and all. I'm the same way around new people. My boyfriend is always getting on my case about it because he's the kind of person that can just walk up and start talking to anybody and me fine with it. As for videos... I'm self conscious every time I upload one!

[jpotcher]

I ordered some Forks info after watching her video too! I haven't gotten mine yet though. BUT,my friend and I have decided that we are going for sure in June.
