Blue Bloods art project!!!

Art Project Contest! Win a Blue Bloods Make-up Bag!

So I put my slighted drawing talent to the test, and made up a Schuyler!!!

I don't have any real talent (or patience) but I thought "why not, Melissa will appreciate!" (@Melissadelacruz on twitter!) So, this is my contribution and the extent of my skills.

I really hope someone likes it :) and maybe one day I'll self teach myself, like my father did!! 

Alright!! here it is!! Please enjoy! (or if you hate it, keep it to yourself! lol)

 

for Melissa De La Cruz!

The Lost Boy by Mark Sheldon (my thoughts)

This book was a hard one. I just couldn't "get into" it. The main character, Dan Regal, is a 12 year old boy, who speaks like a 20-something man. Some of the writing was difficult to place with the age of the characters, (though I did like the Principal!!).
I'm not really a reviewer, like a lot of the blogs I follow. But I thought I should say, read this book, sure. But don't expect anything above a light coffee-time read. I was able to put it down, again and again, without it calling my name to continue reading. I did finish it though, and I personally liked it a little more towards the ending.


Either way, there you go :)

My Cellphone pic of the book :) (thank you again Mark Sheldon, and thank you for signing it to me as well!)

OH WHAT FUN!

I've been reading, doing giveaways, tweeting, facebook-in', lol anything I can do to keep myself occupied!
I recieved a ARC of THE LOST BOY by Mark Sheldon in the mail today, along with a webcam (gift via a yahoo friend) and I'm STOKED!
I wish I was a better writer, or that i had something interesting to say...

OH! Ian got his haircut yesterday :) He looks like such a little man :( >>>>>
All his curls are gone, he SCREAMED like it hurt to cut his hair, then was super happy and lovey afterwards.
(the red cheeks are normal, he has a dry skin issue)


So yes, today, I'll be playing on my cam, reading, and maybe cleaning. Though I've already started laundry, i dont feel the need to hang it up right now!!
