I know I haven't been the most committed blogger lately, but I have a (small, unworthy) excuse! Exams are two weeks away and Ihave been busy procrastinating-_-
That's one thing I hate about exams- they're always on when the weather is best! Not fair!
Back to the topic we are here to discuss:
In recent days, the ones where this blog has been abandoned, I got through only 10 books. It could have been a lot more, but like I said, I had no choice but to spend tine doodling all over my study timetable. I'm sorry, okay?
So here it is:
Book #5 - Slated, by Teri Terry
Book #6 - Looking for Alaska, John Green
Book #7 - The Host, Stephanie Meyer
Book #8 - Paper Towns, John Green
Book #9 - Will Grayson, Will Grayson, John Green
Book #10 - Ender's Game, Orson Scott Card
Book #11 - Bridge to Terabithia, Katherine Paterson
Book #12 - the book thief, Markus Zusak
Book #13 - If I Stay, Gayle Forman
Book #14 - Between Shades of Gray, Ruta Sepetys
Book #15 - Wicked Lovely, Melissa Marr
Follow me on goodreads to get the next books I will be reading:)

The Skyscraper Book Project-The beginning.
Being the weird human being I am, I felt as though my life was just something you might read on the back of a shampoo bottle: get up, go to school, come home, do homework, eat dinner, go to bed, repeat.
Having hobbies didn't help. It was only making the events above seem more emphised? If that makes sense.
You spend ten minutes on the piano, but that's just while you're waiting for it to be late enough to go to bed. You get out on your bike, but you're really waiting for dinner to be ready.
I thought about it, a lot. Seriously, a lot. I thought I might be depressed or something. I considered this a last resort kind of thing, if I couldn't find a way to make my life more interesting, I would go to someone about the depression. So I figured, if I start doing something I really like and then prioritise it and get other people involved, it might help.
In my head it has worked! Its really exciting, and you probably know what it is by the title, but yes I am starting 'The Skyscraper Book Project.'
The Skyscraper Book Project is a project which anyone under the age of twenty one can get involved with. Basically the idea is to read one thousand books before you are twenty one, before you are officially an adult.
It does seem a bit ageist now that I'm typing this. Over twenty one year olds can still be involved, read the books and all but not before they're twenty one. Duh! Set your own age goal, peeps.
The posts concerning this will be updated every time I finish a book. People are welcome to come and take the book recommendations, give book recommendations, whatever.
Where do I want this to go? When I think about how I would like this to span out, I see a small, maybe not so big group of people (I realise not so many people my age want to get so into reading), all together in a bookclub of sorts.
If this brings people like me who love books together, I'd be happy. It just sounds like a really nice thing, coming online to Blogger to see the latest things people have read, blah, blah, blah.
Even if nobody else does this, at least I'll have my 1000 books. It's a high goal, i know, but I'm determined to do it!
Also, I am aware that I wont be twenty one for a good few years, but that just makes the journey look like a better one. Work will have to be put into this.
The only rule: You cant read the same book twice and count it as two!
The amount of books is so big (thats why i called it the SKYSCRAPER book project), that it will certainly be impossible to stay within your comfort zone genre. You read quicker with a book you don't find particularly predictable, which reading in the one genre causes (being able to predict outcomes in books, I mean).
As I've already read ten books so far this year (and I'm NOT proud of that!) I'll post them up later today.
I think I've said everything now.
Plus, I googled this earlier and there is absolutely nothing like this out there, just lists of books you should read before you die/ before the end of the year/ immediatley.
Am i reading by myself, or is anyone going to conment and read too?

The Interview
So, here it is... God, this is scary! How do other people do this? You, the person reading this, have you thought about it? Thought about how I'm here on my bed and you're there, wherever you are, reading this thing that I wrote? It's an amazing thing, the internet. Like how weird would it be if you were all sent this on paper in the post? Do people do that? Send blogs in the post?
Anyway, for my first post I wanted to do something different- I've asked my friend, Chris, to interview me about my blog via email and this is how it went down, enjoy!
CHRIS: right, first question, who are you?
ME(ELLIE): I'm me, duh! But to answer the question like the super interviewee I am; I am still me!
CHRIS: Oh god, this is going to take a while! Answer the goddamn question!
ME: right, my name is Ellie, only it's not my real name, its just a fake one to use for internet safety and that stuff. Get it? Im me but I'm fake, but not like barbie! Like the way I'm more comfortable with my real name hidden, I want to stay anonymous.
CHRIS: cool, but why do you want to be anonymous?
ME: I guess because I'm scared to fail, if this is just a lame page that nobody ends up reading at least the failure wont be under my name. I also don't want to be judged, again, if people don't like my blog and I end up getting teased... Actually that can't happen now, can it? Because it's not me! Catch my drift?
CHRIS: you never fail to give me headaches ...*the following has been censored* ...next question! Where do you get ideas for your blog posts?
ME: I think this is really sweet really, when I was little, I used to spend a lot of time at my granny's house. She used to have this book thing that she would scrapbook her days in. Not major things, as she was old and immobile. But small things like passages from books and song lyrics and there was even a christmas card i gave her once stuck into it. I loved the idea of her book so much that I made my own book and the book entries are what my blog posts will be based on. They range from jokes and funny dreams I've had to lists and advice from my own personal experiences. There are surprisingly alot of experiences written down there considering my young age- not young like 26 year olds who THINK they're young- no I'm still in school, and i know that'll turn half of you away, like come on, why take advice from someone who hasnt lived yet? You ageist people! Well yeah, there's only that side, but I think I know what I'm talking about here. Oh my god, look at my babbling.
CHRIS: well that was touching...and long! Yawn!
ME: oh shut up! You know you love to listen to me prattle!
CHRIS: prattle?
ME: yeah, you know, it means to waffle...
CHRIS: ...
ME: your pathetic, you do honours english, yeah? Just ask the next question!
CHRIS: don't insult my english! Mine english are great! Haha! So, do you relate to your posts?
ME: yes, everything I write is something I've personally experienced or sonething i read or saw and have opinions on. Posts dont have a set day to be uploaded on but there will be a notice about the next upload at the bottom of every post. Is that confusing? Did you get that?
CHRIS: yeah details of next post at the end of latest post? Pretty understandable, next question: who inspired you to write a blog?
ME: not a who but a what. My computer wont let me read other blogs; its write your own one or look at a blank screen. This annoyed me, people who's blogs I could see, I didn't like. (If anyone reading this has a blog feel free to email me the link, my email address is down at the bottom;))
CHRIS: cheeky that was! Cheeky! Anyway, enough about you, I'm hungry be back soon
* CHRIS LEFT THE CHAT TO GET FOOD AND RETURNRED 30 MINS LATER*
CHRIS: hey
ME: oh my god you left me! You stupid boy! Only ever thinking about your belly- one day I'm going to be in a life threatening situation and you won't be able to save me because you'll be somewhere else getting food!
CHRIS: well, you're still alive now, so... What's your point?
ME: *censored*
CHRIS: hey hey I'll make it up to you, I'll come to your house tomorrow and I'll bring you stuff:)
ME: stuff?
CHRIS: well I presume you want oreos and sugary bootlaces?
ME: oh hell yeah, I forgive you!:)
CHRIS: I knew you would, back to the interview, is writing a major hobby of yours?
ME: no, I'm more of a sciency person! Burning magnesium in pure oxygen was just the coolest thing I have ever done!
CHRIS: okay anyone who didn't understand or doesnt care can just ignore her the way I always do.
ME: hey! You can bring me a dvd to watch tomorrow too now!:p
CHRIS: yes, your majesty!
ME: oh shut up! Next question?
CHRIS: would you consider writing as a career?
ME: not really, unless an oppertunity blossomed, I'd like to study chemistry. Im sciency and this is just an experiment! Oh thats good!! Thats good!:)
CHRIS: your fail at comedy almost made me die of embarrassment:')
ME: oh give me a break, it's mid term! My brain is switched off!
CHRIS: so what? You have like permanent mid term?
ME: oh! You did not!
CHRIS: moving on swiftly, are you more of a reader or a writer?
ME: definitely a reader! I have a post on books planned for another day though!
CHRIS: suit yourself...favourite blog?
ME: like I said before, dont read them. (Please leave links below if you want me to read yours, if you have one!) I prefer sorta shorter things like quick posts on instagram and stuff( follow me: links at the end)
CHRIS: do you have a favourite author then, like of books?
ME: what can you be an author of other than books?
CHRIS: plays, sitcoms, I think?
ME: it was supposed to... Never mind... I like Cassandra Clare( The Mortal Instruments), J.K Rowling( Harry Potter), and Derek Landy(Skulduggery Pleasant) on watt pad my favourite writer is makeandoffer ( her stories are amazing and her link is at the end too)
CHRIS: ah Derek Landy, nice choice! Kingdom of the Wicked- murderous fantasy in the funniest form I've ever seen it in!
ME:haha yeah, how cool would it be if he read this?
CHRIS: amazingly cool! As cool as you would be if you stopped getting off topic!
ME: right sorry- wait you're the one with the questions-ask them! And are there many left? This is tiring!
CHRIS: yeah I'm sure you're tired! I have you to deal with!
ME: yeah well I have me to deal with every day!
CHRIS: that's quite mad...
ME: do you wanna just ignore that and ...yeah...
CHRIS: yeah... Favourite quote?
ME: defo 'shoot all the bluejays you want if you can hit 'em but remember its a sin to kill a mocking' from To Kill A Mockingbird'. Innocent people should not be persecuted! Innocent until priven guilty, I say. And then if found guilty... I don't know...the guillotine? Another one: 'shadowhunters; looking better in black than the widows of their enemies since 1234' that cracks me up!
CHRIS: shadowhuntes?
ME: just read the book, Chris, read the book!(The Mortal Instruments)
CHRIS: right... Do you have any other hobbies?
ME: yes, I'm into photography(my Instagram at the end) and music! I could PRATTLE for ages about that, so I wont start:(
CHRIS: aww, you sad? Well stay like that, spare us your WAFFLING! Haha!:)
ME: you're evil!
CHRIS: I am! Okay, if you had a time machine, where would you go?
ME: that's actually a really good question! Where'd you get that one from?
CHRIS: There was a Back to the Future ad on the tv?
ME: anyway, ever since seeing little house on the prairie I've always wanted to go to the time of Laura Ingles. I don't know why but that time in history really fascinates me and being european I've always wanted to go to America so...
CHRIS: cool, but I'd have to go to London in the time of sherlock...
ME: you know he's fictional right?
CHRIS: yeah but... Don't be a dream killer!
ME: :)
CHRIS: yeah, you smile:)
ME: :)
CHRIS: what role do you play in you group of friends?
ME: I think I play an important role- the glue, I know it's cheesy but I'm not one to fight or fall out with people so I help that way and I did solve that problem from before, remember?
CHRIS: yeah, I do! That was brave, but thats not for here or now:(
ME: yeah, in a future post maybe:(
CHRIS: on a completely serious note, what is your favourite tongue twister?
ME: oh that's easy! How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood? Except it's not as impressive when it's written down:)
CHRIS: you okay now? And no, absolutely not impressive!;)
ME: why do I have the feeling that you don't have any questions left?
CHRIS: because I'm running out and you know me too well!:( haha:) describe your memory?
ME: oh that's really bad! I don't even know if I have one! Once, I went to school with no socks! And another time I forgot it was a Saturday and i got dressed in my school uniform and was about to go outside for the bus when my mam got up and stopped me! Im such a fail but its more nicely addressed as absent minded! Like, I remember the most stupid things! I remember my first fireworks but I don't remember the actual fire works I just remember asking my dad for a drink while blinding lights blinked in the corner of my eye?
CHRIS: thats a very detailed answer there! Good thing the next one is whats your favourite tongue?
ME: hmmm I'm going to have to say, and it was a very hard decision now, but MY OWN???!
CHRIS: you know I meant a language-_-
ME: then Irish, I remember once when we were on holiday in france going around telling people to ' DĂșn suas' ( shut up) and the French were just standing there saying 'bonjour' back! Ahaha!:)
CHRIS: you're going to end up telling that to someone who speaks Irish eventually! Then you'll be in for it! Alright try not to laugh when I ask this next question: what is your favourite kitchen utensil?
ME: for some reason i didn't laugh? But... I like sporks^_^
CHRIS: does that count as a utensil?
ME: I don't know, it should because other wise I wont have a favourite anymore! How good are sporks? You've got all that greatness of a fork in the convenient shape of a spoon!!:)
CHRIS: are you high?
ME: well kinda, my bed is a pretty big one so yeah I'm about a metre high from the floor...
CHRIS: if I were near you I would back away slowly now!:) last question: rate me out of ten as an interviewer?
ME: 1, but I can bump you up for a fiver tomorrow?
CHRIS: sure
ME: right, nine
CHRIS: why nine?
ME: because you were terrible and no amount of bribing can get you any better than that:)
CHRIS: for that you get an extra question- pick two celebrities to be your parents for a day?
ME: my mind went blank, I dont remember any celebs!
*the conversation went on for a bit but I don't think the rest was relevant- heck, I don't think half of that was relevant but there it is!*
