A Redwall update:
So far I really like it a lot. I like the letter from Brian Jacques in the beginning, explaining how the time period isn't really a time we can relate to, and how he wanted to write about a time when there weren't machines and technology. I love the creatures and the personality traits for each species. Cluny the evil sea rat is pretty terrifying so far and I look forward to happens in the upcoming pages.
I'll update more when I'm further into the book. As of right now though, I'm a fan.
How about some other things I like that I am not embarrassed by nor are they terrible:
Top YouTube Channels: SHAYTARDS, fiveawesomegirls (made up of Kristina, Lauren, Kayley, Hayley, and Liane), sxephil, the vlogbrothers, meekakitty, and The Station
Blogs: Maureen Johnson, John Green, HayleyGHoover, Pamie, Sarah Dessen, Post Secret, 11 Points, The Superficial
Music: Third Eye Blind's new cd "Ursa Major" (here's a video!) Faber Drive, Miley Cyrus "Party in the USA" (and this), Kings of Leon, The Used (particularly the Artwork and Lies for the Liars albums)
The Boston Bruins
Daily Booth & Twitter
By the way, can you tell I didn't know how to do links before? Sorry for the onslaught... but oh well!

"Today I ran down the halls of my dorm yelling, "THE BRITISH ARE COMING! THE BRITISH ARE COMING!" Some random guy stuck his head out the door and responded, "GRAB YOUR MUSKETS MINUTEMEN! WE'VE GOT SOME REDCOATS TO STOP!" This was easily the greatest moment of my week. MLIA."
"Today I was at the mall and I saw a pregnant woman wearing a shirt that said, "Maybe now he'll marry me." By far the best maternity shirt ever created. MLIA. "
"Today, I filled a Windex bottle with blue Gatorade. I then sprayed it into my mouth infront of my mother. She began to panic and scream and get hysterical. I thought it was funny. She didn't. MLIA."

MLIA
I know a lot of people have heard of the FML website, which has made the phrase "fml" become so overused that I can't stand it. I hate when I see people's facebook statuses end with those three little letters, it seems to tacky and self-involved.
But now I have been introduced with MLIA (My Life is Average), which is so much more hilarious because a lot of the posts are about small sometimes amusing thoughts regular, average people are having. And I somehow don't think people will use "mlia" half as much on their facebooks as they use "fml."
Apparently there is also a MLIG (My Life is Good), but I have the feeling that it will just be people being braggy and pretentious, so I may not check it out.
The following are some quotes from MLIA:
"Today, my parents made me put a flashlight in my car because they didn't think the lightsaber in my trunk would help in a time of need. What fools. MLIA"
"Today, I was cleaning the garage and found our old christmas lights. I noticed that the label said "for indoor and outdoor use only". I'm still wondering how anyone could possibly break this rule. MLIA"
"The other day, dinner with my mom was awkwardly quiet. To break the silence I randomly asked her what her zombie plan was. She said she didn't have one. We spent the next half an hour discussing the best strategies against the undead and she is now sufficiently prepared. I feel like I've re-payed her for bringing me into the world. MLIA"
"Today, I was about to put a pie in the oven, so I checked the time. It was 3:14. I felt like the universe wanted me to have pie. MLIA"
I love the Zombie Plan one. Earlier this Summer one of my best friends and I came up with a plan to defend his house if Zombies ever attacked. We worked out multiple scenarios and even got his mom in on the plans so she'll know what to do when the time comes.
