Blog Awards..

So, I got this award from Melissa at A Mom With Too Little Time. Thanks so much, Melissa.
Five things that I am addicted to is:
1. Books... no duh
2. Doctor Who... Love that show. It is so amazing. I wish I had a Tardis and could go againist Daleks.... Though I probably wouldn't be as good.
3. House... Just started watching it and love it. I love how, I can understand most of the medical jargon.
4. Chatting online, I love talking to some of you on YA Swap, Chatzy, or MSN.
5. Youtube... I just love it.
I'll nominate people after the next award.
I got this one from the amazing Shalonda and the awesome Khyrinthia.
"This blog invests and believes in the PROXIMITY-nearness in space, time and relationships. These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in prizes or self-aggrandizement! Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers! Deliver this award to eight bloggers who must choose eight more and include this clever-written text into the body of their award."
I am giving to just a few you of the amazing bloggers out there. I would give this out to 20 people, but that might be over the top.
1. Korianne aka Korianne Speaks: Korianne is really random and nice, when we aren't on War on Twitter and even when we are. She totally understand what little insanity that I have.
2. Hope aka Hope's Bookshelf: Hope is really sweet and awesome. She is really great, I am glad that she is Friday for Seven Book Babes.

4.Vanessa aka What Vanessa Reads: I miss her blogging not recently. I am so glad Vanessa agreed to be our Sunday. I am so excited for her video... it will be awesome. She is really helpful and friendly
5.Chelsea aka The Page Flipper: Chelsea is always trying to get people together. With her book club and author chats, which are always fun and interesting. She is just really rad.

Booking through Thursday(1)

1. Do you get to read as much as you WANT to read?
2. If you had (magically) more time to read–what would you read? Something educational? Classic? Comfort Reading? Escapism? Magazines?

1. No, I am always busy, though I am not doing anything that I like. If that make sense, I have school, doctors, friends, and church. My doctors are about a three hour drive and I can't read in the car anymore.
2. I tend to randomly choose books (by their covers or recommendations). Right now, I have about 50+ books in my to-read pile. So, I would read those. They are YA, a few adult novels, and classics.

Peace out, Sarah.
