I finished Heaven can wait- Cally Taylor yesterday, which was a very light and enjoyable read. I'm about 10 pages into Falling by Sharon Dogar, which I'm finding quite interesting. I've also added 5 books to my wishlist but have so far resisted the urge to buy anymore until I've read at least 5 more books from my tbr pile!

Echo, those cherry blossom pics are gorgeous! I actually have cherry blossom as my wallpaper at the moment. So pretty!

The Notebook

Example- Won't go quietly

I don't necessarily want to lose weight, but I wish I could be healthier. It always seems like such a lot of effort! My worst habit is not drinking enough water. I can easily go all day without a drink and not be thirsty, never in my life have I had the recommended amount. And like bookjumper I don't like the taste either, so no, not weird! Another thing is skipping breakfast..and occasionally lunch and end up stuffing my face (with entirely wrong foods) from 3-10pm. I've heard its supposed to be: Eat breakfast like a King, lunch like a prince and tea like a pauper, whereas most people do it the other way round. Luckily so far I have maintained a fast metabolism, and am not overweight despite my abysmal habits but I'm sure this won't continue as I get older.

I finished The five people you meet in Heaven- Mitch Albom (which I thoroughly enjoyed-really got me thinking about life and death.) ..and I started One thing led to another- Katy Regan.

Blue- Fly by I'm ashamed to say I'm having a good old singalong to this.

I'm not hungry but keep raiding the cupboards/frigde for anything I can find, which is currently a kit kat..any excuse not to do my essay.

I watched the 1st 2 episodes this morning. I wouldn't say I was particularly blown away but I will keep watching and I'm sure I will get into it after a couple more episodes and knowing the characters more. It's definitely darker than twilight but they are a lot of similarities. Boy meets girl, boy is a vampire, boy and girl like each other, boy doesn't feed on humans anymore...and thats pretty much as far as its got.

I read a few more chapters of Mitch Albom's The five people you meet in heaven. I was in Asda yesterday and there were a huge amount of books for just

Mines not that interesting..Aquarius as thats my starsign and 91 because I was born in 1991. Echo is a brilliant middle name!

I loved last night's episode. I've missed it so much, it feels like years and years ago since it was last on! I did get rather annoyed though. A few people decided to try getting hold of me while it was on. From now on 10-11pm on a wednesday my phone is switched off!

I added this to my wish list just a few hours ago, will be interested to see what you make of it. Joe- How are you finding Eclipse? I think I preferred it to new moon if I remember rightly. I started The five people you meet in Heaven- Mitch Albom which has an interesting start to the story!
