Today, I got my acceptance from Penn State.
I have officially been accepted to every college that I applied to :)

Congrats!!! :D
You're lucky you found out so early. Last year I waited anxiously for the school that I really wanted to go to forever to get back.

Sad thing is, I don't have a chain for it yet...cause it's not in the budget until later this week. Priorities Priorities.

Great news today- <a href="http://www.breastcancer.org/questions/margins.jsp">negative margins</a> and only one lymph node effected (affected?). We are all thrilled and relieved beyond words. My mom is the strongest woman I know!

Great news today- <a href="http://www.breastcancer.org/questions/margins.jsp">negative margins</a> and only one lymph node effected (affected?). We are all thrilled and relieved beyond words. My mom is the strongest woman I know!

So can they remove the lymph node? With my Mom's pancreatic cancer, once it had spread to lymph nodes, there was nothing they could do(okay, there "could" have been REALLY long operation, called a Whipple Procedure[if memory serves], where they remove the pancreas, gall bladder, and a BUNCH of other stuff...but they first biopsy a lymph node, and if it's positive, they don't go through with the operation. They came out after about 30 minutes, and told us she'd be out of surgery, in a few minutes, so I[me, and my damned research] knew, that there was no hope. And sure enough, the doctor confirmed what I knew.

Maybe some lymph nodes can be removed, prior to it spreading to others?
Obviously, I hope so. I'm glad to hear she's so strong with this.:angel:


Edit - I just read the link. Awesome news!!!!

You should have applied to the University of Texas... just saying.


Congrats!!! :D
You're lucky you found out so early. Last year I waited anxiously for the school that I really wanted to go to forever to get back.

Agreed! I applied to UT back in September of 2008 and I didn't get my acceptance until April 2009. That was for sure the longest wait of my life.

eeh, John. For college I decided I was gonna be too far from texas, and too close to home. You see what I did there? I took a Stevie lyric. Pretty creative stuff... :P

[chelluversu]

Thank god for freezing rain. I woke up at 5:40 ...or was it 5:30? Whatever. I don't have school today!! Hell week, however, has been extended :(

To whom do you wish to be betrothed?

We're marrying people now??
Oooh :D

So my laptop fell off the couch last night and froze so I shut down and now it won't turn on. It says insert boot disk. I don't even know what that is. This is fantastic. I just got it back from being fixed. :(

Any male or female Ledgie you'd like to be your Ledgie Husband/Wife?

Meh, I'm still single.

I think I may be in a relationship this Valentine's Day for the first time in my nineteen years of living. I don't even know how this is supposed to be done....

Good for you! I've got a DVD date, in about an hour. We're going nice and slow, this time(just a couple of dates a week), and it seems to be paying off.

I HAD thought I was too needy, and that two dates a week wouldn't be enough for me. I was wrong. I like the space.:angel:

That is such fantastic and uplifting news to read, JannieC.
I am so please.What happy news for your entire family, for your mother and for you, especially.
Good news is hard to come by these days, I'm so glad to read it!

[Ghost_Tracker]

I think I may be in a relationship this Valentine's Day for the first time in my nineteen years of living. I don't even know how this is supposed to be done....


Quietly, peacefully and respectfully, with communication
between both partners and meaningful negotions over
"trouble spots" in which concerns and boundaries are
mutually respected? And with a great variety of diverse
activities with an equal balance between those each partner
is interested in? And with a mutual "sharing" of equal power
which is also founded on respect???

Or is that just on tv . . . . ;)

Ugh... I'm completely done with this nasty-azz winter. :mad: Nineteen inches in Central Park, and they were calling for 6-8". :rolleyes: I knew something was up when I saw lightning in the sky around 9 last night. I'm not even thinking about driving out to Long Island this weekend and shoveling the driveway, which already had about a foot of snow on it from previous storms.

[amberlemegan]

It's really happening. I'm finally redoing my room!!! :] This is something I've wanted to do the last 2 years. Yesterday my sister and I cleaned out my room and primed the walls. I'm not painting until Sunday so I'm moving back in to my room today and putting all my stuff including my mattress on the floor. I have a feeling I'm going to be listening to Gypsy a lot the next couple of days :thumbsup:

Right? Ok, i'm not crazy when i was like what the hell is all this when I woke up to another foot and a half of snow this morning. I'm DREADING going out to shovel my car out again.

At the rate we are going, we should mark February 26th down as the next big storm. The two big ones so far were exactly 1 month apart. Which means we've had snow on the ground for 1 month solid. I cannot remember a time ever where we've had this in the NYC metro area...maybe in the 70s, but i was a little tyke then.

I've never seen it snow so persistently for so long.
I rarely check the weather because I live on campus, and it's kind of irrelevant to my two black walk to class. So every morning I wake up, see yet more snow, and go, "Seriously?"

In recent years, we might have 1-2 inches here, 2-3 inches there, some mixed precip one morning, but not 40+ inches in a month.

I hope your schools plows your walkways for you.

I took the Metro North train to work this morning, which is elevated once you go above 96th Street. It was eerie (but beautiful) to see the streets of Harlem completely deserted; usually 125th Street is abuzz. I can't stand the inconvenience, but I love those fleeting moments when the city is so white, pristine and quiet. I'm sure it will be all brown, slushy and manky by the time I get back home tonight.

...and then March 26th too while you're at it! That happens to be the night of the Two (non) Blondes tour at MSG, so it better not happen!

[HejiraNYC]

People were walking down York Avenue, stopping to take cellphone pictures of the white fluffiness before it got all messed up. That's fine, except was trying to walk to work and the sidewalk is narrow as it is, outta my way people!

York Avenue? Isn't that somewhere up in Connecticut? :p Two days after the Christmas blizzard I had to dig my car out; it was parked on the street and literally buried to the point where I couldn't find it at first. Next thing I know, people were taking pictures of me as I was digging (for three hours!), as if to say "look at this unfortunate moron." At first, I was thinking of saying, "take a picture, it will last longer," until I realized that's what they were actually doing! :lol:

[Nikolaj]

This winter is punishing, for PA, NJ, NY and CT. 19 inches of snow fell last night, on top of more than 2 feet still on the ground in my yard. Where the city snowplows push the snow at the end of my driveway, the mound is as tall as I am- 6 feet.
People not in the states affected don't realize how huge and unprecedented the storms are in this area- This was the 8th storm since Dec. 26 in CT, and it's unreal.
Driving, when one can, y'all can't see to take a left turn and cross traffic without being hit head on, the snowbanks are so high. Go the long way, or die ;)
We need a thaw! My gutters have been filled with ice for weeks. The hanging icicles are monstrosities.
Like H. wrote, it is "eerie (but beautiful)", but is also hazardous beyond belief. (Sort of like my own self, har!)*
* No, I won't turn brown, slushy and manky by tonight- I hope!

They do--thank god! I spent three semesters at a college in Vermont, known for its Environmental Studies. It's a VERY eco school, and despite the mountains of snow they get, they don't even salt the walkways, because it's bad for the environment. I try really hard to be as environmentally friendly as I can, but that was totally ridiculous. It's a very hilly school, and kids broke limbs falling every year. I kept thinking that if they were walking alone at night, something really bad could happen.

I transferred to a school in NYC, where I grew up, and I really can't complain about the snow ever again!

I wish I could redecorate my bedroom, but unfortunately I just have too much stuff and the house is too small. But when I get my own place I am so getting handy with the paints and eclectic furniture. And I've already decided that I'm going to ditch the bed and go for a mattress on my floor ala Gypsy :p

yeah, eco-friendly good...eco-friendly in a place where it snows for months straight...not so good!! But see, you got the Vermont feel in NYC. What school by the way? I'm just across the Hud river from you in Edgewater.

I went to school in Indiana (IU-Bloomington) and I remember 2 distinct weather events. In my freshman year (winter 1994) the wind chills were like -40 or something and it was so cold cars and buses wouldn't start so they canceled classes. Then my junior year (winter 1996) the Blizzard of '96 occurred -- which affected pretty much anyone east of the Mississippi if memory serves. I remember flying over that storm and when I landed in Indy, the snow banks were just under the plane wings. It took me 2 days to dig my car out. Anyway, i just remember walking through campus a few days later and you could tell where someone in one of those Bobcats went through and cleared the paths. They were only wide enough to walk single file. I remember the snow was about 3 feet high and i felt like i was going to class in some sort of bobsled track. You couldn't see anything!

File it under "Global Warming". Doesn't just mean that the earth's temperature is rising, it means that weather patterns go postal to the extremes. It's just going to get worse. Especially, when more of the Arctic Ice Cap melts and the ocean levels rise...enjoy New Orleans, the Florida Keys, the Virginia coast, SoCal, etc, while you can, they'll eventually be underwater.

Seriously, though. We all know that us as a race are going to doom ourselves to extinction in one way or another. We were a bad idea. Be it from an evolution/creationist/whatever you believe in. We're a selfish species who ultimately cause destruction by striving for material needs and wealth. It's just a shame that our greed is going to drag the rest of the planet's lifeforms with us when the big GW really does get heavy.

My house is small and I seriously did not realize how much stuff I had until I went through it all. I threw a lot out. Mine and my sister's room are in the basement so all of my stuff is in the small space outside my room. There is a little path to my sisters room haha. I have my mattress on my floor now and I love it, but my bed is like half my storage in my room so I'm enjoying it while it lasts.
I totally agree with you when I get my own place I'm doing the exact same thing :thumbsup:

I tried to convince my Mom that I need my mattress on the floor as well. For a Stevie Gypsy feel, and also so I could put 2 single matresses together to make a double bed :nod: ...but she told me no, the spiders would be able to get to me easier and eat my brains out.. This is what I have to live with :distress:

That's a good idea with the two mattresses. Big beds are nice, but when I sleep on them I sleep only on one side so there would be no use for me to get one.

Not going to lie when I put my bed on my floor today the first thing I thought of was spiders. Not necessarily that they were going to eat my brains but more about that I'm closer to them. Spiders have a weird attraction to my room and I'm the only one in the house that hates them.

What about the spiders that hang glide down their web from the ceiling? They can land in your open mouth when you're sleeping, walk down the tunnel of your throat and do all kinds of exploring for the evening.:eek:

Middlebury. Wish I'd been closer to Burlington--it's a great city, but my friends and I ended up going a couple of times.

[Silver Springs]

This is scary. I'm applying to the University of Chester to do a two year Master Of The Arts course once my Batchelors Degree is through. I'll be so far away from home that I won't even be able to visit on weekends. So scared but thrilling!

For anyone who thinks they might be missing out on the snow....this is my street at about 8am this morning.

More on the way next week supposedly. I have no idea where we are going to put it!

I just got back from getting my hair cut. My friend and I were the last ones and then they were closing. A lady walked in and asked if they were open and they said no. She asked if anyone else was open. Heather the person who does my friends hair didn't know. Then the lady started crying and said her hair was falling out and she wanted to get it shaved. Of course Heather let her stay. I honestly wish I could have stayed with her because she was all by herself, but we had to leave since it was snowing once again and getting bad. As soon as I walked into my house I started bawling and now I'm crying again.

My friend said that if she does well in the course (Let's just say we're not holding our breath considering the effort she's put in), applies for Chester and thus gets accepted, we can have a house share. That would be great. But if not I'll definitely go it alone. I feel like if I don't get out of this house and dead end town while I have the opportunity I never will.

Just made some awesome banana muffins

[RickRobert]

Not sure if this is the right place for this but I could use some advice. I'm thinking of contacting my dad on Facebook, I haven't seen him since I was 7, but he messages my mum now and then asking how I do with exams and stuff like that, so I figure he cares but it could be my mum getting in the way. She doesn't like him as far as I know and might go bananas if she finds out about me talking to him behind her back... and even then I don't really know how I'm supposed to approach messaging him like that. Does anyone have any advice?

She doesn't like him as far as I know and might go bananas if she finds out about me talking to him behind her back... and even then I don't really know how I'm supposed to approach messaging him like that. Does anyone have any advice?

I'd think about it long and hard, if I were you. Until you know for sure one way or another. Maybe even consider sitting down with your Mother and having a real conversation about him, telling her how much getting to know your Dad again means to you. And how important it is to you to just know him. And most importantly; that it doesn't mean you love her any less and that you're any less grateful for the hard work she's put into raising you over the years. Just bare in mind that if you do contact him you run the risk of being severely dissappointed. Although I suppose you'll at least know for sure. But just prepare yourself because it's a big step.

Just do what your heart says, like in Wuthering Heights - when Linton and Cathy are sending letters to each other. If you really want to contact him do it - but like Cathy you will have to face consequences.

It's impossible to talk to my mum about anything :eek: I've met my dad before and I know he's not that great... it's just it couldn't hurt to try, maybe I'll be able to trust him and there's a big lack of people I can trust in my life. Plus I'd like to meet my step-brother, and I have an uncle on that side of the family around my age(!) that I'd really like to talk to again. So all I have to worry about is my mum. I'll try and talk to her and maybe she'll see where I'm coming from...

[amberlemegan]

How sad that she was by herself. :distress:

I know that is was one of the things that really upset me :( That must have been so hard.

How old are you, Rick? I think you have every right so see your father, but I would strongly caution against going into this looking for trust. If your expectations are too high, you run the risk of getting hurt. I don't know what your relationship with your mom is like, but I am guessing if you approach the subject in the way you described, she will go even more into protection mode. Good luck- this is a tough situation.

Oh my God you guys, I'm referring to the Fleetwood Mac song :o...I just found it on YouTube today

[MacShadowsBall]

Rats!!! I was gonna do poll for us to figure out which "Heart of Stone" you were refering...:laugh:

Cher, absolutely. I sing Cher songs very well because I realize she's a female hybrid of Elvis and Mr. Ed the Talking Horse. So when she goes really low for "... don't you sometimes wish your heart was made of stah-ah-oh-oh-one," I get all horsey and chortley. It's so much fun!

[HomerMcvie]

Anyhow...yeah Christine's FM version is a good song. Though "Love Shines" is more of my favorite.

ME TOO! Love Shines, to me, is the epitome of what a FM song should be, and it should have been a big hit for them. That chorus kicks in, and it's EVERYTHING a FM should be. Classic Christine FM!
One of my top five FM songs, ever.

It was fantastic, amazing and just awesome!!! After that I vowed to see them again closer to the stage. If I were you I would be freaking out right now too.

I will definitely tell everyone about it & post pics :) I know what you're talking about with the whole 'I'll go because it will be a nice first concert thing.' When I seen Aerosmith it was my first concert & I only really knew their music good for like a month as well, and next time I'm getting right up there & rocking out like I should have the first time, haha.

I had a cool dream last night. I was walking into the record store(do such places still exist?) and noticed there was hardly any CD's on all the shelves. I asked the guy at the register if they were going out of business? He said they weren't. I then asked if I could place an order for the new Fleetwood Mac album. He wiped his forehead and said, "woa, the rush of pre orders for that album just blows me away." I asked if I could see a promo pic of the record. He showed me the paper. The album is titled THANK YOU and it has a bluish-gray background with white winged doves(hey, this is a dream. I have no control here) flying up from the ground with great, wide wings. There's some type of 3D hologram on it that when you hold it, makes it appear to be flapping in real time.

The album(it was an LP, not a CD) features all their best songs in demo and outtake form, written in or around 1976. It says on the front it features Rhiannon recorded in 1976(demo).

The only thing in the dream that dissapointed me was the fact that THANK YOU was being released the same day as IN YOUR DREAMS.

Also in my dream, when I went to sign on The Ledge to report this good news, there were already a bunch of fans griping about the 2 CD's having the same release date.

Hey, British youth on this board.... I really need your help.

I'm transferring from my college and I'm seriously considering going to school in England. If any of you have insight on British universities and/or the application process, I'd be forever grateful if you could message me so I can ask some questions. I've already bombarded Lucy but I need to hear from as many people as possible.

[Artemis]

I can help you out there if you want, I did the whole application thing last year and I have friends who are doing it now. :)

Although, unless you're really well-off or can get an education loan in America that'll let you study in the UK, I'd personally advise against it, unless you transfer over this year, you'll have to pay at least £9000 a year for tuition alone, which is insane. :(

Ah, Silver Springs- you are learning quickly because you're so brill. Sometimes one's body just needs time to catch up with the energy needed for a thriving and striving mind. Your little body just needs some 'me' time- be it drinking Red Bull and watching Bill Who and enjoying rock music. It's just recharging your batteries, taking some time for yourself- so that the section I underlined that you wrote bec0mes one of those things you will love, again- though sometimes hate. For the rest of your life: Love.Slash.Hate- for all those thoughts and work that will take you where you want to be.
You wouldn't want to be "normal" in the bad way, would you? It's "normal" in a GOOD way to say 'today has been cancelled due to a lack of motivation' and just enjoy laying up in the bed, drinking the Red Bull, putting some music on loud on the headphones, and watching some tv. Part of being young. Take a page from Miss Scarlett's Guide To Living-- think about it tomorrow! Enjoy today doing nothing, take tomorrow if you need it too. By Wednesday the work will be welcomed. That's one of the best parts of being young.
Me, I'm shooting for March- for remnants of motivation :)
Enjoying one's 'down time' is essential to putting up with the bullsh*t that is life.
Slack off, sweetie :)

Yeah, you could always come here to the land of the Welsh where the tuition fees aren't rising, but the universities here are a bit crap apparently. I'm going to England for music uni for that reason despite the tuition fees :distress:

I think that, if you're Scottish, it's still free. And if you're English/Welsh and go to a Scottish uni, you only pay half... of the old fees. Which is ridiculous.

My current tuition is $32,000.... education is so much more expensive in the United States. That's JUST tuition, not room and board and other living expenses. Luckily I have a big scholarship but I'm still paying much more than you are.

I've only really looked into universities connected with the University of London but if you have any recommendations for a literature major, let me know!

Anyone can give me their formspring name and I'll be sure to keep you busy. Just ask Dani or Miranda. They can never keep up with all my questions.

I was finding it really difficult tonight!! Haha, I didn't even get to all of them, but like Caitlin I have to hit the hay *yawn* I'll get to them sometime this decade, though :p

[Silver Springs]

one effing thing and i can't even do that right....anybody willing to give me a lobotomy? or a cupboard to scream into?

I can relate. Not saying names at all, but I've met people on here that are strange and just flat-out nasty to me.

However, I've met even wackier people on Facebook (who I have long dropped and I'm much more careful with who I accept FR's from) and man do I have some stories with those folks

Dear everybody - if you don't want creepy facebook friends, don't add me. No seriously :) But really, I'm a lover not a hater. I'm just kind of a creeper.

Of course, you don't wanna be friends with me either. I'm nuts, I'm a nerd, I play video games (I have a Wii and a DS), I read anything I can get my hands on (this ranges from novels on my Kindle to comic trades), I ruin my ears with old-school rock and metal, and I also happen to be a munchkin. So yeah, add me at your own risk ;)

How tall are you?

[MissLadyLoki]

How tall are you?

5'2". I know it doesn't seem that short (I tend to joke about my height a lot), but I have a cousin that's 4'10"

EDIT: Come to think of it, I'm as tall as Angus Young, which is awesome

[ButterCookie]

I'm 5"1' :cool: Same height as Suzi Quatro

[TerraRhiannon]

I'm 5'4. Average, I'd like to think. But I feel super short in many situations :distress:

That's not terribly short for a girl. I have a guy friend, though, who's 5'2". Now that is short, for a guy. He always jokes that he's "pocket size".:lol: He even made his middle name Pocket, on FB.

I'm 5'10". White male average. I'd rather be shorter than taller, though. If I had to pick.

Also, know what? I think Yankees are taller. Around here, I have SO many friends that are 6'2" PLUS. I have one that's 6'6"! So I feel like a midget, especially when I'm around more than one of them at a time. BUT, I swear, when I go down south(which is frequently), I always seem tall down there...I don't notice many 6'+ guys down there.

So when you go down South, you feel like you're in Munchkinland? :lol: That's cool your friend calls himself pocket-size, but I prefer to call myself fun-size :p

As for me, I have conformed to my height, but I just wish I was a few inches taller just so I don't have to constantly roll up my jeans so they don't drag on the floor (and they're in a short length too)

Down south, I have just noticed that I NEVER seem to be standing next to some towering guy, which is normal for me, here. My two best friends, one is 6'2", and the other 6'5"!
Yeah, it's good that he makes fun of it, rather than get upset about it.
I wouldn't mind being 5'7" or so, but I think 5'2" might be an inconvenience.

I'm a curious guy. Just glance through, at the average heights of all the different countries listed. We're definitely in the top 10, height wise.

I'm 6'3"... and the years I lived in North Carolina, I always felt like a freakish giant. But now that I'm back in Texas, I've noticed my height really isn't abnormal at all. I guess it really is true what they say about Texas ;).

[fringed n fab]

I'm like 5'6 or 7 without shoes but it works out because I think I'd look hideous if I were 6'5 in platform boots and a skirt when I don them.

Oh you can't be serious. Do tell?

[Artemis]

I'm Six foot exactly, and growing up, I was always one of the taller ones. Now, 9/10 guys are taller than me. My 15 year old brother is nearly taller than me too.

Luckily, I hang out with a loooot of girls. Win.

Nope...I'm short...at school when I work on clients I barely pump my chair up LOL(I go to hair school)

Eh, we're managing lol The snow is literally up to my hips!!! SOME of it has melted and such..but it freezes once it melts lol I hate the COLD!! I seriously cant wait for summer lol

You have snow up to your hips, I have to use a child's shovel (seriously, a regular shovel goes up to my shoulders and I can barely maneuver it :lol:) . I want this friggin' snow to melt! I want summer! (but no 100+ degree days like last year, Phoenix could keep that if I end up moving there in the next few years)

Moving on, I should've written this earlier, but while we were talking about height and my fun-sizeness, I just realized something else that has gotten me into some fun: the fact that I have a very young face. I'll be turning 21 in August and people tend to think I'm 15-16, and the folks that give out samples in Costco doubt I'm the minimum age to take a sample, which is 12. Yes, they think I'm 8 years younger than I actually am. Then again, I did hang out one day with this guy Jim, who turned out to be 8 years older than me and had been in the army before going back to school

A snow day would be nice if it happened on a Thursday and caused class to be canceled for the day (I have no Friday classes and it'll mean a 4-day weekend), but all this damn snow sitting around has gotta go. I'm sick of my car getting pelted with the sand on the roads (and it just needs to stop snowing so I can wash it). At least it's been getting warmer around here

As for the hot days, I'm thankful for my house's central A/C (except it didn't really come in use a few years back, when our old one broke, which was over 20 years old, and had water coming through the ceiling. Throw in a heat wave during the week it broke and me working as a camp counselor that summer and it's a recipe for disaster :lol:), but I don't have a pool (backyard isn't big enough cause we have a retaining wall) and all my friends dorm during the school year and live far away from me (OK, most live in the city an hour away from me, but I had a friend Ross who lived in Florida and a friend Nathalie who lives in Maryland) and I don't exactly like the people I went to high school with, but either way, you're too lucky getting to have a pool! :blob1:

I was car jacked a few years back while I was kneeling down and putting air in my tire at a gas station. The guy cocked his pistol and stuck it against my temple and demand my keys. That's the only time in my entire life anyone has ever messed with me. It was probably my fault, though... being a dumb male, I didn't have a second thought about putting air in my tire in the middle of Charlotte's ghetto of ghettos. I guess I'm still just plain stupid... being robbed still isn't anything that ever crosses my mind.

Stop being me.
I know, it never occurs to me, that I could get robbed. So, I'm a tight ass. When I go on my frequent trips to Nashville, unless it's pouring down, I walk from my hotel to downtown, about a 20 minute walk. Well, if I cut through this -vacant at night- industrial district, it saves me about 6 blocks of walking. Well, I never will again! So, the first week of January, I'm walking downtown, about 9PM. These four...."guys"(I could add labels, but would probably be called names, for doing so), spread evenly across the street(I was walking down the center, because that's where the best light is), with me in the middle of them. Talk about scared ****less! When the were about 30' from me, I pulled out my phone, and dialed 911, and visibly had my thumb on "send". Now, I can't say for sure that they saw this, but that's the only reason I can figure, that they let me pass. Because there's no doubt in my mind, that they were going to fukc with me.
The other incident, was a week ago Sunday. It was 20 degrees, so I figured the crack dealers would be inside. This time, two of them approached me, on the same stretch of street. I pulled my knife from my pocket, and visibly slung the blade out, and held it out.....and walked between them, with them each about 2' on either side of me.

Yep, I'm NEVER walking through that area, again. Ever.

We share similar personalities. Here's an insight into the woman who always inspires me to stay positive.

VIV! I watched a movie last night with Vivica in it.. .she also produced it. I can't remember what it's called.. it was called like "Getting Played" or something, but we only watched the first few minutes because my friend's sister was there and it was a little too mature for her.:shrug:

Thanks Caitlin :)

I can't choose...
Barnes and Noble has these leather bound books, but I only have enough money left on my gift card for one. There's too many. This would be so much easier if I didn't own all of Jane Austen's books because that would have been my number one choice.
Narnia- I already have all of them and read them, but they are old and falling apart.
Charles Dickens, Jules Verne, or The Vampire Chronicles- I don't own any of the books in each of these and I'll pretty much read anything, but I'm afraid that I might not like the books in them.
Hans Christian Andersen and Grimm's Fairy Tales- I think it would be cool to own the two Fairy tale books as 2 leather bound books, but of course I already have Grimm's.
Sherlock Holmes- I really want to read these two, but I'd rather get 4 or 5 books in one than 2.

Sorry for my little book rant. I love books and I love buying books so I have such a hard time choosing. I could spend and hours in a bookstore just looking around and deciding what to buy.

I saw them live in concert. They were the opening act for-I think, but not really sure, The Smashing Pumpkins.

I didn't know they had a soundstage. In fact, I didn't even know they exhisted. I like this place, learn something new everyday :thumbsup:

Holmes. Always always Holmes. I'd sacrifice a lot to have leather bound works of Conan Doyle. Even if it was only The Hound Of The Baskervilles.

Go for Charles Dickens - any story by him is totally wonderful.

My set of Narnia Chronicles is falling apart so my husand bought me a beautiful new boxed set. If I was to go on a quiz show then my specialist subject would be Narnia - totally know them back to front!

I think it's between Sherlock Holmes and Charles Dickens now. My first choice was Sherlock Holmes and then I saw the other ones. My friend loves Charles Dickens and we pretty much read the same books. I might just buy both because they aren't that much. I'll just have to cover whatever my gift card doesn't cover. Thanks for your input :wavey:

I've only read Narnia once but they were awesome I'll read them again sometime in the future.

I am going to hate myself tomorrow. Pulling an all-nighter so I don't oversleep and I'm able to be at Uni on time.

I don't have any lessons tomorrow, but, we have to pick our modules for next year, so, if I sleep in, I'll be stuck doing something really awful. Like "Analysing 18th Century Britain texts" Do not want.

I love reading books myself and I used to buy tons, but it got to the point where, 6 months ago, I had to buy a Kindle so I could have room in my bookcase.

Anyways, as for the book, go with hans Christian Andersen. I read a cheap BN paperback copy once and they're really good. Hell, his version of Little Mermaid is nothing like the Disney version (and kinda depressing too)

I saw them when I was in college. My best friend and I were obsessed. I still LOVE Shirley.

And Amberle- you can't go wrong with Dickens. :)

[gretchen]

I love Garbage! Amazing band.

I have officially no room left on my bookcase. I have two piles of books on my floor and they are constantly growing. I plan on having a room in my future house dedicated to just my books :D

That's what I'm thinking too. I think I'm leaning towards Dickens now.

This sounds weird, but I have "The Ghosts Are Gone" playing in my head. I am either channeling this new song out of the ether... or I've just spontaneously written a song based on a random song title! But it's definitely Stevie singing the song in my head. It's a bit of a frantic song with lots of acoustic guitars, swirling strings and a manic drum beat. It's not unlike Eurythmics "When Tomorrow Comes," but faster and in a minor key; she's literally screaming out THE GHOSTS. are. go-o-o-one... God, I wish I had an acoustic guitar and a tape recorder...

I wish you did too! I've had dreams about hearing new Stevie songs but I can never remember them when I awake. Perhaps FM77 would like to weigh in on your description? ;)
