nook it , or book it?

I frequent Barnes and Noble, but I seldom ever walk out with tons of books because my room is already cluttered with them! Its really frustrating, yet I know that I want to continue to read. Alduous Huxley is an intriguing author to me and this is the next book that I plan to purchase.





If you haven't read Brave New World, simply put, you're losing.

Anyway, should I continue buying books and burning trees? Or should I conform to the e-way and get a nook? Decisions , Decisions...

Yes, some people smoke it, but I like to bathe with it.

Hemp Anyone?

No seriously, this "Dr. Bronner's magic soap" is bomb. It has a super faint smell, but my favorite is the mint scented one. So many natural oils are jam packed into this bad boy: jojoba oil, organic coconut oil, olive oil, tea tree extract, hemp oil,... You can even use it on your hair!


My Goodness; its like an organic smoothie =)




Here's your ccatch: It retails for roughly $10. Yeah I know, it sucks. But its totally worth it. Trust me.

Ferocious Feet

JEFFREYYYYY CAMPBELLLLL is a freakin GENIUS. Yeah, that's why I wrote his name like that.

I don't even care thet they're gonna make me look like a skyscraper. :)

I will have a pair, and I will be wearing some on my 21st. (March 30th for inquiring minds)

Book Review: Falling out of Fashion

This book isn't a cheesy fashion book, so wipe that look off yor face. If you're at all interested in the inner workings of the magazine business, this book is sure to keep you interested. I read it in like two days, which is unusual for me because I tend to get easily distracted. I think since this book really is based on a real individual's life, Jane Pratt, the story itself was oh so relatable and highly entertaining. (Jane Pratt is the original founder of Jane).

Anyway,the story follows a quirky individual named Jill and her quest for what most people want: a decent life. It starts in her college years and takes us through her "trying to fit in stage," her "gulllable I'm in love with a rockstar stage," and eventually her magazine industry stage.

After working for a while at a teen publication entitled Cheeky, the magazine folds as parents complain about the tasteless and vulgar content. You see, as an editor Jill's vision was not of a typical glossy featuring stories like "how to win your man back," or "how to lose weight for prom." She featured the real side of life like: "how to lose a loser," or "great super fatty recipes." She was different, and she was wise because fortunately there is always a market for "real shit."

After Cheeky folds, Jill goes to work again on Jill, a spin off of Cheeky, but for an older crowd (ingenius!). The magazine is a great success but eventually Jill is swallowed up into the world of backstabbing publication b*tchiness. Her arch enemy, Ellen Cutter, tears the magazine apart from the inside out--even to the point of Jill being on the chopping block of her own creation. WTF?

However, the story ends happily. :)

I've given enough of it away--go check it out for yourself!!
