My Current Reading List...

Most people seem to think that Christmas break is the best thing since sliced bread. I would absolutely have to agree. However, with LCC it is not "Christmas Break," it's "Let's give you a break until your so bored that you want to claw your eyes out because you have nothing to do but watch movies and read all day, break!" I have been on break since December 15th, which was very nice. Right now it is January 6th... I do not go back to school until the 18th. That is 12 more days!!! I am trying to do things around the house, trying to organize my bedroom, hang out with friends, READ more, but you can only do so much of these things in a day.
Since I have had nothing to do, I am so very excited for HPA to start again tomorrow! Yes, I am absolutely thrilled. I have missed everyone so much and I have missed just being there. I think HPA is peachy keen! If you've been around me at all in the past week or so, you've probably heard my excitement. I'm so ready for rehearsal tomorrow! :)
Hmmnn... other things going on in my life?!
I've been playing my guitar more lately, which is a horror to my parents (Our house is anything but sound proof) and a wonder to me. Don't worry, it's an old acoustic with no amp... it's not that loud.
For those of you who know me well, I usually enjoy reading. However, you also know that I do not have the attention span to focus on a book long enough to finish it within any decent amount of time. This year I want that to change. I'm creating ridicoulosly long reading lists of books I would like to read, not that I have to read, but would like to. This way I can keep track of how many book I've read and which books they were. As of now my book list is getting rather long, weird thing is... I still want to add more to it. So, I am still open to suggestions. Honestly, give me any random suggestions and I'll check it out, if it doesn't interest me... well, that's why I'm using the library not buying all these books! haha
Here is my list so far.

  1. The Great Divorce – C.S. Lewis
  2. Crazy Love – Francis Chan
  3. The 7 habits of highly effective people – Stephan R. Covey
  4. Faith to Faith – Dan Scott
  5. Glen Beck’s Common Sense – Glen Beck
  6. His Princess Bride – Sheri Rose Shepherd
  7. In the Name of Jesus – Henri J.M. Nouwen
  8. Love Dare – Kendrick
  9. The Princes of Ireland (The Dublin Saga) – Edward Rutherfurd
  10. Bright Sword of Ireland – Juilene Osborne – McKnight
  11. Captivating – John & Stasi Eldredge
  12. Wild At Heart – John Eldredge
  13. Rebels of Ireland – Rutherfurd
  14. Songs of Ireland – ?
  15. Wastelands – Post Apocalyptic composite
  16. The strong shall live – Louis L’Amour
  17. Set Apart Femininity – Leslie Ludy
  18. Real Christianity – William Wilberforce
  19. Breaking Free – Beth Moore
  20. Dangerous Wonder – Mike Yaconelli
  21. Love Revolution – Joyce Meyer
  22. Hunger Games – Suzanne Collins
Yeah, it's high hopes for a slow, distract-able reader like me. But I'm going to try. Plus i'm still wanting to add more on. :P
Well, that is all I have to say right now. Not much interesting I'm sure. I promise things will get more interesting when school starts back up, you just have to bear through the 12 days with me!
... I think it's time to cross my arms, kick my feet and throw a fit... I want school NOW! However, i know that such relief can never come when you actually want it! haha
Fervently,
Jackie
