Survival

Today marks the end of my FIRST week interning at the high school.
I can't get into it on here, but all I'm hoping to do is survive....with a grade good enough to graduate.
The past three days [during school hours] have been spent reading Water for Elephants. I finished it today during 5th period, so I had 2 periods to go with nothing to do.
I am definitely recommending this book to any and everyone who has the time to read it. I have had it sitting on my book shelf for at least 6 months, but haven't gotten around to it until now. My biggest motivation? The fact that the movie is coming out soon.
As for the book, there was just enough drama to keep me flipping the pages. And just enough sexual content to keep me from getting bored.
The book as a whole was very interesting, maybe because I used to want to be in the circus.
So check it out. It's worth it.
Plus, don't you want to know what happens in the book in case you're too distracted by Robert Pattinson's good looks to actually pay attention to what's happening in the movie?
That's what I thought.

I'm glad you liked it-- I absolutely loved it. And then when I found out who they cast for the movie, I knew right away they were perfect. Mostly because I was already picturing Robert at Jacob, and I think Reese will do well at Marlena. Super excited to see the movie. :)
