Let's give it up foooooooor.....YOU PEOPLE!

Yes, it's the wonderful, the magnificent, the incredible, and the mostly anonymous YOU!

Hey everyone,

       5 and 4 days (in that order) until I have to turn in my (hopefully complete) Rome report and novella.  However, today I was at a standstill in my typing so I strayed to see what the stats were on my blog.  As I looked at all the readers, from China, Japan, Poland, Sweden, England, Columbia, Israel, and many other countries including my home in the US, something was brought to my heart and I thought I would wright it down to be heard.  So here it is:

       This blog, this little window for people to look into my life, would be nothing more than a grain of sand on the vast desert of cyberspace if it wasn't for you.  So here's to you.  Maybe, you accompanied me on my unforgettable journey to Italy.  Maybe you are a close friend, or a family member.  Or maybe you are someone I don't know, living in a country I have never set foot in, that has an interest in my life.  You know what, for all I know, you could be somebody who accidentally tripped over some girls blog while looking for cat videos, and you have never looked at it since.  I don't care who you are, just know this.  I am extremely happy ( like jumping-up-and-down-almost-wetting-your-pants-screming-so-hard-your-Mom-comes-into-the-computer-room-to-see-what's-up happy) that you came and checked the blog out.

(a) When a tree falls in the forest, and nobody is around does it make a sound?
(b)
When a blog puts out a new post, and nobody even checks it out, does it even exist?

Well, it's a good thing I have to answer neither question because (a) I am not a lumberjack, and (b) I have you guys. So, thank you, for everything.

Your ever so humble blogger,
Liv

Thank gosh for you guys!

Wow, before I say anything more in this post, I congratulate my viewers for hanging on so long ;)

     It is true that I have been exceedingly irresponsible with this blog lately, due to excessive scholarly
obligations/school.   In less than 24 days I have both a 9 chapter novella and a ten page research report on ancient romans due!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Needless to say, I'm getting LOTS of help from my teacher, but most of it is supposed to have one person working: io (I in italian).  The novella is sometimes fun, and sometimes tedious, but at least it gets to be fictional.  Add my normal homework to that and you have one busy, but not necessarily overworked kid.  But hey, I'm sure I'll get all this under control ;)

     Oh, by the by, one of my aMAZing fans wrote something about me hitting the books, and which books precisely.  Well, reverting to my previous paragraph, I haven't had much time to read anything specific.  I have been re-reading Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows, but I think I juiced it of all I could last time I read it.  It's still fun finding those bits where you are all, "Ohmygosh, this is when they run into Neville!" or something, and then you find out that they don't.  I dig surprises like that, they make me laugh at myself for thinking I knew what Rowling had in store for me.  On the subject of leisure, I've been watching a bit of PewDiePie on youtube, which I probably shouldn't ;).  My mom knows and all, but he cusses WAAAAAAAY too much in some videos.  Some other things I've been watching are "Matt Smith home videos", "Dr.Who bloopers" and '' Lord of The Rings: Merry and Pippin", which I strongly recommend if you're in for some nerdy fun.  I'm also watching Markiplier, as always, who is my favorite youtuber for horror, so check him out too!

Well, that was my little-bitty update on what I'm doing at the moment, and I apologize ahead of time for the next delayed post (smirk).  Please keep on checking my blog out, it really helps my morale some days!  I really love you guys (and dolls, heh heh) and as always, I have prepared a snappy send-off.

No, you aren't as nerdy as I am,
Liv

P.S. Tell me what YOU'RE reading Megan.  For my other readers, Megan W. was the fan who asked what I was reading.  Let this be a lesson to you, those who comment will be greatly rewarded with an answer!  Lord Voldemort rewards those who have been most faithful to him!  Wait, did I say that out loud?
