Terrible Tuesdays

Well today is Terrible Tuesday. Something which started when I was describing my friend's terrible Tuesday timetable, but now I have gone ahead and generally started calling Tuesdays terrible. Because really when are Tuesdays not terrible? In sophomore year I had the worst schedule on Tuesdays of all my college life! Today is no different. I was at home studying for Abnormal Psychology and it has been raining all day. I do not hate rain, believe me after having lived in Pakistan where it is always so hot rain is always a welcome change. But the rain in September here in Canada brings nothing but coldness and sadness for me. Anyway with everything gray and gloomy outside, I decided to write this blog post to vent my hate for Tuesdays. I mean I have a test next week..and guess what day its on? Tuesday. Yes, this is all the proof I need to declare Tuesday from now on as Terrible Tuesday.

If there is anything that can get in my way of declaring Tuesdays as terrible that would be Glee!!! Glee is on tonight! Lo and behold it is the much publicized Britney Spears episode! Also John Stamos (Uncle Jesse from Full House) is going to be in it! To be honest I am pretty excited to see it, but I am afraid with all the hype it is getting it might not live up to my expectations since I am expecting something pretty epic. But I know many people who hated the Madonna episode...which I personally loved..so we shall see. So with Fox changing the days for Glee from Wednesday to Tuesday this year, it can only be seen by me as a clear indication that God truly doesn't want me to have a Terrible Tuesday :)

Lets see if this Tuesday redeems itself.

Now playing: Be Mine by Ellie Goulding & Eric Hassle..perfect rain song.

So simple, yet so difficult…

Yes!! I figured out how to put the Goodreads widget on here..phew..that took long, but it was just so simple! All you have to do is...get the html Goodreads widget code and put into the "HTML/JAVA" gadget seen here under the design tab. Yep, it was that easy. That just got me thinking, how sometimes things are so simple but we get so stressed out over nothing, at least I do. I just need to relax sometimes, something I rarely let myself do. Wish I was like my sister in this regard, who is very laid back and doesn't let anything phase her.

Anyway, this is just a quick update post because I really don't have much to say tonight. In terms of reading I didn't get much done :( both school and fun-reading wise. Hoping to remedy this situation as the night goes by.

Till next time,

The Iron King & Other Matters

Ok I give up. I tried to put pretty little Goodreads widgets on the blog but nope that is something I will just have to learn at another time. Right now I have decided to write this blog post in hopes of committing to this blog *fingerscrossed* Yes I have told myself before that I will write here more often but it just doesn't seem to happen, this time I am hoping to prove my own self wrong!

Moving on..I finished reading The Iron King by Julie Kagawa last week. I was very excited to read this book after having heard so many great things about it. I can't say I fell in love with it, but it was a nice read. To me it felt a lot Alice-In-The-Wonderland-esque in the beginning, but it got better as the book progressed. That being said, I loved Julie's description of the Summer/Winter/Iron Courts, very descriptive and detailed.  For me the lack of development of the characters was the biggest let down. One thing I can't stand is a dumb heroine, while I wont go as far as to say Meghan's character was dumb, it wasn't very bright either. And, Ash, oh Ash, you had the potential to be so coldly sexy in your coldness, but nah, it didn't happen for me. His character, to me, felt like it needed to be introduced earlier or in order for their relationship to develop. This late introduction of character led to a rather rushed romance. My favorite character was Robin Goodfellow, haha, he was rather funny with his tricks! The cover of the book is very pretty as well. So if you are really into faeries, and are looking for a nice quick read, I would say go ahead read this book :)

So I went to the mall today to go shop, but I got really tired and didn't want to slow down my sister in her quest for the perfect camping outfit, so I just went to Coles and bought two books..like I really need to buy any more books! My own-it-but-haven't-read-it pile is humangous! Anyway, I was soo tempted to buy The Clockwork Angel by Cassie Clare but it was for 22.50 Canadian Dollars! :O So I resister the urge (will order from Amazon.ca) and went ahead and bought Beautiful Darkness by Kami Garcia & Margaret Stohl and also The Maze Runner by James Dashner, both in paperback!

Currently Reading: The Truth About Forever by Sarah Dessen. It is just so sad and a slow read. But still interesting and very well written so far.

In other news, it has gotten turn-on-the-heat cold in Toronto! :(

Till next time,
