Love Triangles

You know sometimes there is this thing authors and writers like to make to, spice the stories up. It's my absolute favorite thing to be able to say "PLOT TWIST," but sometimes there make me angry. Most of the plot twist I have come to know are those little love triangles. Who doesn't love a little drama?
Seriously in many of the books I read, shows I watch,  movies that are pretty hot and even in real life love triangles are pretty much everywhere. Those Twilight fans who were all "team Edward" and " Team Jacob" and I'm just team can you not.  I'm not going to lie when I first read Twilight I was into it, into it enough to throw my book against the wall. But I was never really for a character. Of course when the movies came out people were going to pick the hotter guy, or the character they loved the most. Even in The Hunger Games people picked a team. Of course in the end Katniss picked the right guy and I was happy. It sucks when a character picks the wrong guy, or girl. It makes you so angry because it's like everything you hoped and wished for, fell through the cracks. Everyone was so mad when Katniss didn't pick Gale and I was all happy and giggling to myself, like that's right snitches I won this time. Granted I'm really weird so I actually did do that.

Did you ever watch the show THE NINE LIVES OF CHLOE KING, you know that ABC family show that got canceled after the first season? If so you already know that love triangle. I was so pissed when it got cancelled too. I finally had the time to read that released script of the never made movie. Talk about closure. I was finally able to smile and I was inspired to write like a movie/ television script. Of course I still want to write books but that script looked so simple. And guess what Chloe picked the right guy. If you have any idea of what I'm talking about check out the link: :The Nine Lives of Chloe King final script , if not carry on.  I won't say who she picks though you have to read it.
The one love triangle thing I currently hate is the one from The Vampire Diaries. Elena fell in love with the wrong guy. I'm one of those people that really liked Stefan and thought he was the perfect guy. I know people  who are like that with Damon. But I currently think Elena is stupid and on drugs, that's probably a mean thing to say but yeah, my current thoughts. But another CW show, Reign has a beautiful love triangle. Like this show is going to be all drama and it makes history and I quote "sexy". Mary has to do a lot for her country but will her heart get in the way? I mean both of the guys in her life are pretty attractive but which would you choose or even consider being with?

It's all a matter of perspective i guess. Besides the love triangle isn't officially going, things are just you know alluded to. It's funny because there are a lot more shows too that teens are into that have theses triangles. Like Teen Wolf, and Awkward, heck even Glee had them.

As for real life love triangles, there are probably millions. I could talk about people that I know and their relationships or the people that I like, but it doesn't really matter. Those who need to know, know.

Sex & Violence

Maybe I have captured your attention with that title. But fear not this isn't some racy discussion about the topics of sex and bad things about it or how sex leads to violence or that if you have sex you will die. Sorry that's a run on sentence and a little bit of a mean girls reference, but seriously I read a book and that was its title....

What?!! I read a book? I know, it's crazy and sadly it's actually been awhile since I posted something I could call a decent book "review" or you know recommendation.  So I hope you guys appreciate this one, because this book was different for me.

Now the book is called, Sex & Violence, by Carrie Mesrobian. What threw me off though was the fact that the story was well written and in a guy's point of view and not many people can pull off the opposite sex view with out it being too biased but Mesrobian pulled it off. I have read some pretty disturbed books that were in a guy's point of view, and some times they switch. It was harder to tell which characters were more into sex than the other because both view points were pretty bad.

So anyways the story is about a teenage boy named Evan Carter and how he was used to being the "Freaking new guy" and basically had the ability to charm his way into most girls pants since he never really stayed in one place for so long. Well his actions kind of get back at him, let's just say that karma kicked his ass, and his actions also bring harm unto a girl he get's involved with. After experiencing Karma, Evan's dad moves them to a safer more permanent location where he can recover and learn more about himself. Not many guys can admit that they are assholes or slutty whores but Evan admits it right off the back and from the beginning of the story you watch him grow and change as a person. That sounds kind of corny and he isn't some butterfly experiment but his experiences are kind of thought provoking.  In this book about a summer of last chances and recovering there is a lot to be loved.

I love this quote alluding to Evan's father:
"He treated stuff like that how I'd imagine a father would treat his daughter's mentstrual cycle-with caution and distance." 

I think anybody could read this book, it's a little sensitive but it isn't a bad read so check it out.

The Kissing booth...

        Reputations, rumors, fights, romance, high school, and a first kiss.For some people the have their first kiss in like elementary school and it's no big deal because boys and girls have cooties and it wasn't serious anyways. For others it's that first relationship in junior high where both the boy and the girl are shy and it's going to suck no matter what because it's just awkward and neither of you know what you are doing. Or maybe that's just what I've read in books but then again, they were talking about sex so... Sorry if that doesn't apply to your experiences. It's sometimes very rare to come across someone in HIGH SCHOOL who hasn't had their first kiss yet. If their friends are jerks they probably get made fun of, " what you've never kissed anyone?", "my god you need to get laid", and "you are missing out", sure none of that's demeaning or depressing but it gets annoying. Talking from experience by the way, because I'm just lame like that.

      So what do you do when you haven't had your first kiss and one of your friends need you to fill their spot in a kissing booth? You read the book "The Kissing Booth", by Beth Reekles to find out. I'm kind of kidding but seriously you should read the book. It's got an awesome love triangle in it too. For the main character it's all about choosing the right guy and sometimes choosing between your best friend and a guy that makes you feel even more special than your friend does is hard. All the drama, it all starts from one kiss. Well the feelings were there before the kiss but yeah, the kiss started it all. I think I laughed through a lot of this book because it was funny and exciting and totally awkward all at the same time. My mom often asks me what book I'm reading so that she can 'bond' and 'talk about it' with me, but I read the strangest books and she reads to slow so that doesn't really work out. This book was really good and I would recommend it to anyone and it was written by a seventeen year old girl so props to her. But imagine watching some awkward sex scene on Vampire Diaries or The Secret life and having your grandma walk in. It's just very uncomfortable.

     So yeah, read the book because  you'll enjoy it.

Well, it's been a bit...

I haven't really blogged in awhile. But I've been trying to think of something really awesome to bring people to my blog. I don't want to talk about meaningless things or waste anyone's time. I want to bring people to my blog because they want to read it.

Guess who now has Microsoft Word on their laptop now? This girl! I am so excited because it means let the games begin and let the novel writing start. The one thing I know I'll probably hate experiencing is writer's block. One good thing though is that I've been talking to authors such as Piper Shelly, and Sophie Davis. They have given me some really great advice. I really want to publish a book before I'm 18, because I know I can and that I have the skill set too. I really want to write a book that can be read by everybody. I'm not trying to just write girly fluffy novels where the sun sets and everyone lives happily ever after. Uh, no thank you. Someone has got to go and some hearts have to be broken. It's just how I roll.

Another thing, I know that I have that list of books that I said I'd talk about but that list is going bye-bye. Maybe I'll talk about Catch-22 and a couple of the other books I read for school to give a good literary analysis.It is a really important thing to talk about multiple types of books.


More posts coming soon....
It's been real ✌

The Power of lace underwear.

      I know it's a strange way to start writing a blog post, maybe kind of awkward actually, but my sister may have inspired me on this one. Now I must admit,this post will most likely be very irrelevant  but I still hope you enjoy it.

       Now recently my sister made a comment about lingerie and lace underwear, who needs it? Obviously undergarments are pretty much viewed as a necessity and if not found wearing any you can be viewed as trashy, low class, or you know a slut. But if you do wear underwear that is 99% lace you can pretty much be called trashy too, but who's really seeing your underwear? In elementary school it's like no one talks about the color of your underwear. There might be that select group of kids but in general not so much. Junior high is like that self conscious stage where changing in the locker room you think everyone is judging you. Obviously this is just my point of view and I have no idea how guys spend their times in the locker room but I don't think they are comparing each others boxer's size. High school it's like no one even cares. Girls have no problem flaunting what they got because it's what they got, but you know who really cares.
   
   In many of the books I've read, lace underwear has been a good thing and a bad thing. In Shut out, by Kody Keplinger, girls were using the lingerie to seduce guys and then leave them hanging, so you can consider that playing dirty. Most of the guys weren't happy about being played. In Breaking Dawn, by Stephanie Meyers, the lingerie can represent something new and intimate between Robert and Bella. One Meg Cabot book I read was always cracking jokes at the Victoria's Secret, crotchless underwear, but someone has to wear them otherwise they wouldn't be such a big company. But with a name like that you can probably still feel sexy without having to show off your undergarments. It can be your own little secret.
