Department 19
So i started reading this book and i had no idea it was about vampires at first. It was a little sketchy in the beginning and i wasnt sure i liked it but in the end it was pretty good. Its a little weird and i at first i was like this is pretty much like any other vampire legend book because its about dracula and stuff. There is also Frankenstein in it as well. Will Hill finds ways to connect these types of things and he almost gives you the history of vampires. The whole book is about Department 19, which is like an FBI/swat team that kills vampires and protects Britain from them. In other countries there are other forms of it to help keep vampires under control. The book focuses on a teenage boy, Jamie Carpenter, he gets roped into the world of vampires pretty much by force but is not very welcome. His father was believed to be a traitor of Department 19 and sold them out to the oldest vampires in time. At the end you'll never guess what happens. I couldnt put the book down.

The Amish Way!?!? Yes Way!!!!
So for spring break i went to lancaster to see the amish because they are my favorite people in the world. If i could do anything in the world it would be to live with an amish family for a couple of days/weeks to see what it was like and then fall madly in love with an adorable amish boy and turn him into a horrible a teenager and have his parents shun him until we have kids and then go back to being amish. That is my ultimate goal in life. I think i could handle being amish. I love how close their family is and i already work on a farm and all that so i think i could do it. Ya i live in a world with electricity and cell phones and all that but i love how the amish live so much that i could give it up. Their values and traditions interest me so much that i would give anything to be one of them. it would be hard because they try to stay away from people because a main thing about being amish is to get rid of all ties to the outside world so they never rely on any thing new. so im keeping my fingers crossed until the die i die for that amish boy to come around and take me into his life.
