First off I think I might mention that it takes 21 days to get into a habit, or likewise, 21 days to break one. Therefore, this will probably be a futile trial and error, 21ish days, of maybetryinghopefullysucceedingblogging.
But there is some SUCCESS! I mentioned in an earlier blog: here, that I had a bunch of books I wanted to read this summer. I did in fact finish rereading HBP and DH which is awesome. I also read A Room With a View, In a Dark Time, and Will Grayson Will Grayson. I would recommend all of them, and do. Now I've dived into the pages of The Two Towers, and am pretty sure it's going to take me the rest of summer to read it, so I'm thinking of reading something else instead since I'd like to get two more books read before going off to college.
Speaking of college, but not so much OF college but the art portion of college. I went to the Robert Hull Fleming Museum at UVM, and it was awesome. They had a stairwell that looking similar to the one at the Louvre, but now thinking about it less like the Louvre only because I've never been to the Louvre. I'd like to go to the Louvre. Andbutso there was this exhibit of Francis Colburn and Ronald Slayton. I'd never heard of them, but I really enjoyed their art. Super inspiring, if you're into that stuff.... linky.
Also speaking of art, I recently bought a TV serial about the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. I bought it because BBC America is doing a deal on itunes right now where some episodes of shows are free and others you can buy for only 99 cents. The first episode was free and then I was hooked, so yeah! I bought the other 5 episodes! So sue me! All about 1680 ish art and poetry. It's almost like a docudrama, because almost all the characters were actual people. It can't be completely accurate, but it's based on historical events...and I basically just gave you the definition of a docudrama. But it's been cool to look up the artists and find the work that was shown in an episode. I also got the first series(as in Eccleston) episode uno of Doctor Who. WOOT!
I'm running out of things to talk about so I'll just leave you with this picture of me being eaten by the glare of the isight.

Peace out. Bless your face.
