My Journalist's Sentence of the Day

So on Sunday I got two new books to add to my wonderful collection... the Choice by Nicholas Sparks and American Diva by Julia London. We went into Books-A-Million, and I went absolutely crazy. I saw most of the books on my reading list, but most were too expensive. Who would pay $17.00 for a paperback book? Well, that is how much Jodi Picoult's paperback books are. I saw some at Sam's Club, but they were some of the books that I didn't want to read. But guess what, I now want to read one of them named Salem Falls. At Books-A-Million, I picked out a Meg Cabot Airhead series book, but I was told my budget was $10. The book was $9.99. But how could I a Nicholas Sparks obsessed person give up on getting the Choice hardcover for $6.97? I absolutely couldn't. I told Meg Cabot she could wait.

I started on my new book today. I still don't have a title, but I have a direction in which to go. It's a start. This book will be my summer project. I hope to have it finished by the time I get to school. Maybe, just maybe, I can find someone who would be nice enough to publish it. I can become one of those high school prodigies. :) I have already written a book. I wrote it when I was in 5th grade almost 7 years ago. I thought it was time to write another one. Well, I did start another one; but I kind of lost my manuscript.

In English class, we have to write a narrative with a moral. I have no stories or memories of my own that have a moral to them. I never did anything wrong like that. Maybe I could write a story about my memories of my Grandma. That is a good idea. My daddy says I should write about how practice makes a basketball player a better player. I don't know, but I will certainly have to find a topic.

I am glad the Celtics won yesterday. They finally kicked into gear!! Thank goodness. It will probably come to the seventh game. Come on Celtics!!! Champions 2010!!!

We got our yearbooks today. My parents say I am plastered all over it. My daddy said it's probably because my secret admirer is on the yearbook staff. Parents. :)

Well, that is all for now. I am all hot and sweaty from playing basketball outside. I have a ton of mosquito bites and should probably jump in the shower. Well, I think that is what I am about to do, jump in the shower.

Peace out!!
