Just...Stuff

hello, peoples!  how are you all?  i havent posted in a while, and i had nothing to do today, so i decided to post something!  (yay!)  anyway, i recently found out that a lot of countries say things differently.  for example:

England - Pavement
United States - Sidewalk

England - Chips
United States - French Fries

England - Crisps
United States - Chips

What logic and madness is this?!?!  it's so weird...like, why is everything not known universally?  because, you could be in England but be an American and think that you're ordering potato chips, but you get fries instead.  how confusing would that be?  but then it leaves me to wonder, which one came first?  i mean, who called what what first, you know?  and these are the things that keep me up at night...

ANYWHO, i thought i'd give you peeps a couple book suggestions!  for those of you who have read my blog on multiple occasions, you probably know what I'm going to say.

My Suggestions for Books

1.  The Chronicles of Narnia - There is no going wrong with this book.  it's well written and is chalked full of allegories (not allergies), plus, it has great moral lessons!  the character arcs are fantastic!  i mean, this book is literally perfect.  you hate the villains and positively love the good guys/girls/animals/thingys that dont have a catagory (I'm looking at you, Puddleglum!) (Ages 7 and up)

2.  The Invention of Hugo Cabret - Just read it, and tell me you dont love how this book was worked out.  it has breath taking illustrations and the plot is fun, complex, and still easy to follow.  the way the story is carried out is very unique, and i really suggest you read it! (Ages 5 and up)

3.  The Hobbit - this one is a lot less intense than the books that come after, but it's still great in its' own right.  Bilbo is really lovable, and this book is fairly lighthearted.  there's still a dark edge with the One Ring, but where would the plot be without it?  You really love all the characters, and though it's nothing like the movies, it's even better! (Ages 11 and up)

4.  The Lord of the Rings - Okay...INTENSE INTENSE INTENSE.  ive read this one (yes, it's all one book, it wasnt supposed to be split up...PLOT TWIST) twice, now.  the book is so intense and good, and the struggle between right and wrong is so interesting to watch play out.  Frodo is stupid, but almost all the main (good) characters are complelty lovable!  I personally am partial to Samwise.  If you dont love him, maybe you should rethink a lot of things.  the villain is scary, but he isnt creepy.  yes, there is a difference.  scary is like...intense...but not something you'd have nightmares about.  creepy sticks with you forever, and it disturbes you.

I would suggest more, but I HAVE SOMETHING REALLY EXCITING TO TELL YOOOOOOOOUUUUU!!!!  I.  SAW.  THE AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT WAS SOOOOO GOOD!  i thought Pietro was going to be a way bigger deal (thanks, Pinterest), and although *SPOILERS* i was sad when he died, i wasnt sobbing as much as i thought.  i loved how they brought more Hawkeye into the story...that was amazing! i was sad about Clintasha, but then i was really happy that Clint had a wife and a family and a very human aspect to him.  i did walk out of the theatre shipping Bruce and Natasha a bit.  everyones being hard on Tony, but he didnt do anything on purpose!  it was an accident, and Steve needs to CALM DOWN.  anyway, i could go on and on about this, but did you SEE THE AMOUNT OF THOR THEY PUT IN THERE?!?!?!?!?!?! Pepper was estatic because he didnt get much screen time in The Avengers.  i was happy they seemed to level out how much of each Avenger they put in there, and the Maximoff twins were great.  (IM STILL MAD AT THAT ONE KID WHO SHOULD HAVE JUST FOLLOWED HIS MUM TO THE HELICARRIER SO THAT HAWKEYE DIDNT ALMOST DIE AND PIETRO DID DIE!!!!)

anyway, not like im over excited or anything...i have to go.  Until next time!
