"I want to try to make

things right because

picking up the pieces is

better than leaving them

the way they are"

alive if you don't at

least try to do something

remarkable?" -John Green

(An Abundance of Kathrines)

I just had to post this. Isn't he ADORABLE?

Archie Comics

If you want comic books this one is my favorite. Ask my friends. They come to my house and I have two whole shelves of my "library" devoted to these things. Honestly I have about 300.... old ones, new ones, big ones, small ones. Anyways if your looking for fun comics this is my absolute fav. You can buy them at Barnes & Nobles by the magazines or you can get them off the street. Look around sometimes you can even find them in grocery stores. Its 2 am so I better go. Nighty Night.

 No eraser can remove

the mark that you have 

left on me. -Ray

"What is more like love

than the ocean? You can 

play in it, drown in it... 

it can be clear and bright 

enoughto hurt your eyes, 

or covered in fog, hidden

behind a curve of roads

and then suddenly there in

full glory. It's waves come 

like breaths, in and out

body stretched to forever

in it's possibilities, 

and yet, it's heart lies

deep, not fully knowable,

inconceivably majestic"

-Deb Calleti

Journey to the Centre of the Earth

As far as classics go, this book (along with To Kill a Mockingbird) is my favorite. Its action packed but somewhat slow since it was written by Jules Verne in the late 1800's in a different language. Jules Verne has also written other famous books such as Around the World in Eighty Days (which I didn't like as much) and Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea (which I have not read yet). Anyway I would also like to say that the movie "Journey to the Center of the Earth" is NOT, let me repeat: NOT this book. That movie is about people who read the book and try to see if you can actually make it to the center of the earth.

A good review from a Barnes and Noble customer: Jules Verne's book, Journey to the Center of the Earth shows our ever known love of not only gaining more knowledge, but our craving to exploring the unknown. The journey of Professor Otto Lindenbrock, his assistant and nephew, Axel Lindenbrock; and their guide Hans from an extinct volcano to the center of the planet. It is a book that is truly a classic.
