Goodbye Non-existant Summer 0

Heya guys! So I’ve decided to do something different tonight (it’s 2:45am) I just decided to install the wordpress app on my iPod! I never really thought about doing it before, I think I thought it was just for the blogging wordpress.com users only and wouldn’t be usable on those who’ve added it on their sites! It’s rather dandy! I’m liking.

Anyway summer has kind of finished, did it ever really start? It’s been horrible here recently! Don’t think I’ve seen a day without rain for about 2-3 weeks now! I’ve been kept busy this week though – seeing my mums side of the family and getting tons of driving practice in! Ah yes – I don’t think I’ve announced to you guys on here that my driving test is on the 14th September! That’s 15 days away! I’ve been reading this piece of paper which has all 13 combinations of show me/ tell me questions – you don’t know which one of the 13 the tester is going to choose – bit like the manoeuvres I guess!

On the 6th and 8th I have to go to college for workshops as I didn’t pass one of the units needed to get into the second year, so I’m stressed with that – this week is my official last week of summer. We start back properly on the 13th – I’ll be getting the day off on the tuesday for my test!

But it’s gonna be alright – not sure when my driving lesson is, which is annoying me. I know it’s at 2:30 just not sure when.. Hopefully not Wednesday as I’m meeting up with one of my school friends who I’ve not seen for just over a year – we’re gonna go see Inception! Finally!

Sooooooo yeah! Don’t really have much else to say! This was just a tester for the app! It’ll definitely come in handy in the future I think!

Shelfari 2

So I found out this new website called Shelfari. It’s basically a site about books to put it straightforwardly. I’m a nerd, and I love to read…. and I’m pretty much obsessed with this website. I found out about it 2 days ago, and it’s pretty interesting to find out what you’ve read – and then realise how many books you’ve read once you’ve thought about it. I haven’t had the time to add every book yet, but I’ll get there some day.

Anyway, so on your own profile page, you get this ‘shelf’ which shows those you’ve read, those you’re reading currently and those on your wish list. So mine looks like this. You can also search for books, and then furthermore write reviews on the books, find the proper cover that matches your own copy, mark them as favourites, rate them out of 5 stars, write the edition information (if you own it, purchase dates & price, condition, if its signed or if its loaned to a friend) and then add tags.

You can join groups – I’ve only joined one so far – which is to read 50 books within a year. I’m hoping to achieve this. But we’ll see. And you can find out what your friends are reading, and find out about new books from them I guess. So, what I’m saying. Is if your a nerd like me, love reading and are always on the prowl for new books – then join! What’s to waste? It’s always interesting to find new books.. unless you don’t like reading haha.

Anyhow. Enough chitchat of the website. I hope anyone who actually visits this website is doing well, and I’ll try not to leave it too late. Haha. So far this is my top 50, I’ll make a proper page in a bit:
Book 1: The Voyage Of The Dawn Treader by C.S. Lewis

PS: I might do book reviews & site reviews from time to time.
