“It wasen’t over…and it still isn’t over…”

SO, after reading Perez and my BFF’s blogg, I have learned that my all-time favorite couple Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams are back together!!!

I mean I just louvre them  

They were perfect in The Notebook together, and I was so happy to see them as a couple.  They truly compliment each other well.

So you could imagine my heartbreak when I found out that they broke up.  I was completely torn.  They fell into the cliche of “Hollywood Break-Ups” WELL NOT ANYMORE!! They are back together and they never looked so in love

*get more pic-a-tures here

Now, allow me to introduce you to the best clip of these two.  Their reenactment of their famous onscreen kiss!!  Ah, it was soo cute.

Enjoy!!!

Ahh I’m going to have to watch The Notebook again….

My Book List…

Back on the book front, I’ve been slow in my readings and I have not progressed anywhere.

Typical jo.

Right now, I’m stuck on “The Hidden Diary of Marie Antoinette” by Carolly Erickson.  One of my favorite movies is Marie Antoinette with Kirsten Dunst and what can I say, I was intrigued.  I wanted to know more about this Queen and what made her so legendary.  So far the book is good, except for the part where she gives birth to her first child.  Let’s just say … a little too much information.  Like a push here and there and POP out comes a baby would have sufficed….

ANYWAYS, I also just bought a book of essays written by Sloane Crosley, “I WAS TOLD THERE’D BE CAKE.”  It’s a New York Times Bestseller and I read the first page and I made my way to the cashier.  I really like her voice, and I can’t wait to read more of it!!

Now, for the main topic of discussion.  There’s this book out, and it has gained an incredible amount of popularity.  You may have heard of it, it’s called “Twilight” (and I can hear the fans gasping as I mention the novel.)  I don’t know much about the book, but apparantly its amazing and it has everyone buzzing.  My amazing friend K, has read the first 2 books of the series and all I hear are good things. 

I mean yes, vampires, kind of turns me off from reading the series, but K says that I’ll get hooked no matter what.  She goes on to say that the suspense of the novel and Stephenie Meyer’s writing is captivating, and that I’ll probably finish it in a day. 

My mom, believe it or not, has read ”Twilight” also and says that its a great book.  I mean I guess I should read this!!  ALSO, the movie adaptation of “Twilight” is due out on 11.21.08 with the likes of Robert Pattinson (Cedric Diggory from HP 4) and Kristen Stewart.  I mean Robert Pattinson is gor-gE-ous!!  From the previews I have seen, the movie looks promising!

Now, I’m really curious about this book, so I think I’m going to start reading it!!  That is of course, after I’m done reading my two other books and my school novels…

yea, thats not going to happen! I’m def starting “Twilight” tonight.

For any fans of the Twilight series, you’re opinions/comments/suggestions are always welcomed!!

Beneath the Surface…there’s Michael Phelps…

I’m back from hiatus.

So much has happened and so much of it…unblogged.  

And I know I’ve been on a Michael Phelps binge, but I just couldn’t help myself. He is just so amazing, and just in case you didn’t know…he won 8 gold medals, and has a total of 14 medals.  The first Olympian to do so. 

BUT to end my Phelps charade, I will end on the note of his books. 

He has already written one book called Beneath the Surface, and according to reviews its ”not a swimming diary but a take of adversities overcome and redemption through persistence.”

I looked up the book at barnesandnoble.com, and all I have read were great reviews.  So you can assume that I will be buying the book!!

ALSO, I read on Perez that he is writing another book called Built to Succeed.  The novel will cover his competitions, his training, his family and how he coped with his attention-deficit behavior. YUM.

It will be published right in time for the holidays, what a perfect stocking stuffer!!

HAHA, just kidding….no but really….
