Random Fact

Did anyone know that today Andy Griffith is 83?

I didn't know this either....

In fact, I had kinda forgotten about him. Lol.

Anyway. Today Hurricane Season starts...joy!

Um.

Many people know this already...but I love to share things. It's Barney's #1 rule. People shouldn't disobey Barney. That's just wrong.

I started Dracula. Long story why exactly I started it. But I shall 'splain. (props to anyone who knows where that's from. "'splain". )

One of my friends from church, in fact, she might be reading this, I have no idea. Anyway. if she is, hi Bentleigh! If not...ahem. *continues*. The topic of conversation came up of Twilight at church a couple of weeks ago, and therefore when she got home, she created a note of discussion of Twilight. and a group called "Dracula Lovers and Twilight Haters" or something like that. I have been appointed the "Official-LOLer" I feel so special. I dunno why I joined, seeing as I hadn't read it yet...but I knew that I hated Twilight, so I guess that gives me a good reason, lol.

Soooo. The other part, I needed more books on my Summer Reading List. *stroke of brilliance* I'll add Dracula! Aaaha. I started it, loved it. Read it floating in the pool, wasn't too scared there. But THEN. I decided that I wanted to give myself a little scare...nothing really big, just...something.

I've found it's more fun to get scared about creepy things like that with *2 people* instead of just yourself.

The place where I freaked myself the most, and then decided to stop, was when this girl, Lucy, is sleep-walking, goes out to a dock, and sits on her favorite bench thing. Her friend runs after her, and from afar, she see's this tall, white, dead looking man standing over Lucy. She gets closer, calls to Lucy, attracts the attention of the tall, white, dead looking man. He looked over at her, with this bright red eyes, and bright, white, pointy-sharp teeth, he started like running toward the girl who was calling to Lucy, but then he either flew away, or fanished.

Yes, I'm 16. Yes, I know that's just a story. Yes, I should be able to survive with reading something like that at 11 at night.

But nooooo.

I haven't got so scared since I read a Nancy Drew, where there was this guy who was kinda the size of Joey, who was this super creepy insane dude who wandered everywhere. And when I took a break, Joey was hiding on my bottom bunk, and he scared me half to death cause I was going to plug in a light, and I had touched him.

So yes. I like getting scared in groups. Not just by myself.

If you found this somewhat amusing....try reading Dracula in the dark by yourself. But even if you did find this amusing, I don't care...I find it kinda funny myself. lol :-D

Must go. First singing lesson of the summer tis today...in fact. an hour or something.

Also. Ballet recital today! Yayness!!

And I agree, getting scared in groups is fun. But not alone. I did this with the Phantom...I was only like, 4 chapters in, where the Phantom is chasing Christine in the graveyard...yeah. That kinda freaked me out. lol

I first read Lord of the Rings floating on a raft in the pool two years ago...memorable occasion. I was so caught up in the book that I got majorly sunburned. How's that for a story? lol

Ooo, creepy. Speaking of which, has anyone ever played live mafia in the dark? Oh my word...if you ever want to almost get a heart attack, this is the way to do it.
