Why 100?
Last year I set out to read 100 books, but I ran out of time and only read 75. So this year, I will read one hundred books. And you're my witness :) The only thing stopping me this year is 9 seasons' worth of Seinfeld episodes- wish me luck!

67 & 68
i'm at school right now so i have limited time until my next (unfortunate) class. i can't wait to have someone tell me my opinion of a piece of literature is wrong again, as it is every week. just kidding. i in fact am not looking forward to this class and this rude teacher. and shakespeare. blech. so i read two books since i last visited my blog. Jesus by Deepak Chopra and Skeleton Man by Joseph Bruchac. Both interesting and easy to read. I have to write a "multigenre" paper about Skeleton Man, which should actually be kind of fun. our assignment is to write a paper but to also incorporate artistic bits such as song lyrics, poems, pictures, newspaper articles, etc. into the writing to create one real full bodied piece. it should be interesting. i think i'm going to emulate one of my favorite books from when I was in third grad that i can't even remember what it was called but it was american girl and the pages of the book looked like notebook pages because it was a simulated journal of this girl whose name started with an a. and i remember specifically this one really cool part where there was an envelope pasted in and you had to pull out the letter that her friend wrote her and i thought that was A-MAZING. so i'm gonna somehow pull that baby into this paper and wow and amaze my teacher at my three dimensional abilities. i'll let you know how that goes.
