That would be a long trip! Lol. I already live in Pennsylvania, so it works well for me :)
Haha it would be! I've been in PA once to visit the Hershey Factory :) it was pretty awesome but scary cause we were driving at night & got lost!
I got my first ever package from The Book Depository today. :)

you're welcome again! :)
Thanks to everyone, I'm really happy with my new dog. But I wasn't able to reply because I was out the whole day yesterday, she got sick. Yeah, it was so soon. I had to bring her to the vet clinic. She's now ok, thank God. I was so worried. Anyway, the Sea of Monsters movie is really good, better than the first, though it seems that they didn't get Tyson right. LOL!

My hubby and I went camping outside of Harrisburg years ago (for a mini honeymoon) and we went to the capital building and Hershey Park. It was a lot of fun, but we got lost on our way home from the capital building and it was frustrating. We had to stop for directions.

Oh, I'd guess it would take up at least a third of your day. Lol XD

ahhhh! first time i am finally able to sit down. feel like i've been running around all day!
i love SYTYCD, but i just watched the top ten performances and thought they were all a little lack luster. :/

I LOVE that show! I agree though about the top ten...not as good as I expected. My friend and I are thinking about auditioning in the future. We'll see if we make it in lol

Umm could anyone maybe check out my poem...? It's kind of sad and not very good, but I'd really like some input on it... Thanks...
My vacation is officially over, now back to real life, works and you guys :D

Seriously?It's like a really bad fan made trailer.No offense to fan made trailers.
I am going to cry,if they ruin the movie.VA's my favourite series.
I refuse to watch the trailer cause I have not read the book yet.
Alyssia wrote: "I know I was so excited and after I watched the trailer I was like -- "What the hell did I just watch?""Are you going to watch the movie?
You guys realize its not the full trailer...And we cant judge the movie by its book because there cannot be a movie that is better or as good as the book.

That's why I keep telling myself too.But I have so much expectations for this movie.
SO do I. And I was disappointed with the trailer, but it doesn't seem that bad. Wont know until Feb next year
Mod
Woah! Just curious, which book was it? Some books seem to have a following, and they don't admit the possibility of someone disliking their beloved book
Mod
I'll admit that mine is the only negative review out of 8, but I really wasn't a fan.
So just because this person liked the book, it means we all have too?What about when she doesn't like a book, that everyone loves?

Oh wow.
Immature?
Er, who's the one you can't take other peoples opinions here?

Actually it's a good trailer, but there's something odd with the walking thing. Oh btw, the one one who is playing Ozera is one good looking guy.
There sure are some crazy (or bored) people out there...

Greta wrote: "i love SYTYCD, but i just watched the top ten performances and thought they were all a little lack luster. :/"My hubby and I used to watch it, but we started to get a little bored with it. I'm sure it has to be hard for the choreographers to top some of the really awesome routines they've done in the past, but when you can remember the amazing and/or beautiful routines, the rest can be kind of dull after a while.
Sarah wrote: "Just had someone leave a freaking essay as a comment on one of my reviews on amazon, because she liked the book and I didn't! Am I not entitled to my own opinion?"I remember something similar happening to someone here on GR. She wrote a review and posted it here and then the author's agent went crazy under her review and posted some terrible comments. It was stupid on the agent's part because that girl has a lot of friends on GR that follow her reviews and comment all the time. The author probably lost a lot of potential readers from that.
Mishma wrote: "Beatrice wrote: "Alyssia wrote: "Just saw the new released Vampire Academy trailer and I am beyond pissed off. If you are a fan of the books here is a link and let me know what you think because I ..."Yeah. It's only the first trailer, I'm still hoping a better one.

Was that the agent for Kiera Cass?
I know her agent went all crazy over at twitter about her too.
It's quiet sad how bad her agent was at her job.
Being disrespectful to a reviewer, is a lot worse than one bad review.
She probably lost her 10x the buyers than what that one review did.
I didn't mind the VA trailer. I actually thought it looked pretty good, but then again, it's been a really long time since I read the books and since I've read a lot of books since then, I think I don't remember enough of the plot to be upset about the book-movie differences. I try to make it a point to stay away from reading or rereading a book before the movie comes out so that I'm not extremely disappointed. I had just read Twilight when I watched the movie and I was furious with how terribly it was done. I decided not to reread The Hunger Games last spring because I didn't want it to ruin the movie for me in the fall and that worked out well for me. I loved the movie :)

I can't remember, but now I'm going to go check out the girl's reviews to see if that was it. Lol

Then there was a convo between her and Kiera to get some friends to boost the ratings up / knock the reviewer down.

Don't worry, you adapt! I always said I was too selfish to have kids, but you just naturally adapt, I would never have believed it to be honest! I'm not having more though, one is enough drama for me!
