I did warn you!


(Quick apology for the photos - the tremor in my hand seems to have returned again... Sorry for how shakey they are!)
So, today was boring as hell. In tutor I ran the quiz, then went around and did Prefect-y things, like checking uniform and equipment and such. Then we had to go see other tutor groups to take pictures of Beech for this cyber-bullying video I’m being forced to make, because the rest of my tutor is useless.

In English we wrote about an apocalypse in Rotherham, because zombies were taking over… There was a vehicle carrying nuclear waste that crashed on Moorgate, in the newspaper articles we had to write. To say my English teacher has a fear of zombies, she gives us a lot of work revolving around them…

Maths was maths – differentiation, integration, matrices, and further maths-y things. It was pretty fun, actually. I just need to take notes on the matrix topic, and then I’ll be ready for my exam in June!

I also got the results from my Linear Maths Exam… I only sat one of the two exams, but I got almost full marks on it. If I hadn’t been ill on the day of the second paper, I could have probably gotten an A* instead of the A that I already have. Oh well, it’s a ridiculously high A anyway!

Physics is just Physics and it’s meh.

Then it was Food Technology for the rest of the day. And I burnt the palm of my hand because of steam. Finally, three hours later, it’s not red anymore! Damn soup… I never want to make it again!

My day was boring, really.

Until I got home. When I got home, I found a letter waiting for me.

And in it? These...


 

I squealed. A lot.

Now, I’ve got one of them on my wall, looking sexy as ever…

 
I can’t decide what to do with the others, though… Might put them with my books…!

Collector's Edition Hardbacks are at the top left, with The Maleficent Seven Hardback and Collins Reader of Skulduggery Pleasant - and a Tanith Low bookmark! Then in the middle there's my US Paperbacks, Dark Days paperback (without the number) and my Mortal Coil Down Under Tour Edition, with a 'Skulduggery' bracelet on top! Then there's the hardbacks of all the books at the top right, and my Tanith/L necklace!
Then if we go down to the bottom left, you've got the New Paperbacks, with The End of The World (Down Under Edition) in between Death Bringer and Kingdom of the Wicked, with the Old Paperbacks on top of those. Then the Large Paperbacks with my UK Proof Copy next to it, accompanied by a Battle Pack. ON top of those are my US Hardbacks (though, I still need The Faceless Ones...!) and my Coloured Edged Paperbacks. In the middle of the picture is a Death Bringer post card.
 
 
 Then we've got a close-up so you can see the books better. And there's the fan-art from Ellie and Jade, with my Kingdom of the Wicked Poster!
 
They'd look quite cool with my books, I think... But, I don't know... Ideas? Opinions?

Speaking of books…

Divergent and The Mortal Instruments Series are b e a u t i f u l .
I think I'm in love with both books! They are truly incredible. That's why they're on the same shelf as my Mortal Coil Down Under Edition, Proof Copy, Battle Pack and Hunger Games trilogy. Oh, and my Coloured Edged Skulduggery Pleasant books! They're already amongst my favourite books...!
 
I found more books to obsess over. Just a little taster of my obsessions with books… They’re all so pretty I want to cry. I might try to pick up some more books next time I go out, without my mom finding out. Hopefully I can get away with it! Though I doubt I’ll be able to, somehow… Damnit.

I finally started reading Harry Potter again, too! I’m on Prisoner of Azkaban! Only a few chapters into it, they’re on the train. I got distracted by Jace from City Of Bones (awesome book so far, by the way!). And I decided I’d be great friends with Isabelle from The Mortal Instruments series. Alec is also really precious. But Jace is perfect.

Four is also perfection. I love him to pieces. I wish I could marry Four. He’s just such a BAMF.

Skulduggery is now Sophie’s husband, too. So I can’t be married to him, which makes me very sad. And is the reason Saracen is now mine. Well, one of the reasons. He’s hot, too.

Still in love with Peeta Mellark and Finnick Odair from The Hunger Games, obviously. I’m really excited for Catching Fire! The trailer is just… perfect. And, if you’ve not seen it yet, here:


And, whilst on the subject of films (and perfect fictional characters), Percy Jackson and the Sea of Monsters. Man, I am excited for this. It looks so much better than Lightening Thief, and I really enjoyed this book! It was shorter than I wanted it to be, because I enjoyed it so much I wanted there to be more. I really do hope they do this one right, because I’d love to see what they could do with the Last Olympian if they ever get that far…!

Again, here’s a link to the trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5KoOtiuSjuI

It looks incredible.

And, because Sea of Monsters is out during the Summer Holidays, I might be going with Haley to see it at the earliest viewing there is on the day of release! We’re hoping for a midnight viewing! And, given that we’d be going to watch it in Sheffield, there’ll probably be a midnight viewing of it. So excited!
I mean, look at these pictures from it...




 

My sister and her boyfriend have said that they’ll take me to see Catching Fire when it’s released, too! Hoping to get to see that at midnight!
Have some Catching Fire pictures, too:








 
I’m also really excited for the new Iron Man film, and Thor. And X-Men next year! 2015 will be bringing us more Star Wars, which I cannot wait for! I’m abusing the exclamation mark, again… But it’s okay, because I’m really hyper today!

This year seems to be a good year for films!

It’s going to be a good year for books, too… I’m really excited about Allegiant! I need to read Insurgent first, though. I’ve still not managed to get my hands on that…!

With books, I need to buy:

Insurgent, by Veronica Roth

The rest of The Mortal Instruments series, by Cassandra Claire

The rest of the Heroes of Olympus series, by Rick Riordan

The Fault In Our Stars, by John Green

And… anything else to recommend? I’m going to try to buy a few books when I’m out and about – I have a little bit of money!

I think I’ve talked a lot today, so here’s a little photospam I felt the need to do…! Thanks for reading!
 

This is my OTP. Sophduggery. Sophie/Skulduggery. It's the ship of all ships. Seriously, it's a HOLY SHIPPPPPPPPPP. 

This is just insanely adorable and I felt the need to share it with you all. 

Come on, gnomes puking rainbows. Need I say more?
