Just. A. Week. And I am sooooo not prepared to turn 19!!!!! I mean seriously , didn't I just turn 18? Huh? <br />
<br />
Okay, so I am not really panicking like the above example. But, I guess the thing that's worrying me is that 19 is just a step from the big Two-oh and that's kinda scary when you think about it. Isn't it? But, at the same time it also very exciting. :] Another thing about turning 19 I have no heroine for the year. Yeah each year since I was 16 I have had a heroine of the same age to look up to and feel a kind of kinship with..<br />
<br />
This years being 18 and all it was Rapunzel. <br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: georgia, serif;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;">Marilyn Monroe, she was one woman who did many things, some good some bad but more importantly to me ,she has left us a ton of amazing quotes as women in the 21st century. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: georgia, serif;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: georgia, serif;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;">The above quote is one of the most beautiful and powerful I have ever heard. And if you think about the time period she lived in the beginning of pressure for women to look , dress act and physically be a certain way its even more awesome. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: georgia, serif;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: georgia, serif;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;">The thing about this quote that is most important is it is true. </span><i style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;">Every girl </i><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;">no matter her age </span><i style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;">should</i><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"> be told they are pretty. I mean seriously even if you are the only person in that girls life to tell her she is pretty you will have made her feel she is pretty inside and in a time of trouble and self doubt or such like maybe she will look back remember what you said and hold her chin up and carry on being her beautiful self. I don't know exactly how your saying that could help her but you never know. I certainly know that when some one tells me "you look pretty" " You have beautiful manners" etcetera, </span></span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;">etcetera,</span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: georgia, serif;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;">etcetera. I feel beautiful. I feel confidante in being me , with all my flaws all, the little things I worry about . "The Pressure to be Perfect " (as I call it and have heard it called) drops away, all the pressure to look, talk, and behave a certain way goes . And I feel truly beautiful. And heck, maybe tomorrow I'll wake up with dark circles under my eyes from a sleepless night and maybe I'll just wear track pants out with ugg boots and (heaven forbid!) no make-up!!!!.</span></span></span></div>
<br />
And no, I will not look like the goddess the media says I should, I won't look like a model or celebrity I might look a bit well, ordinary but I know as long as I follow my heart and the moral guidelines I have, I AM beautiful<br />
<br />
When we embrace ourselves , everything , our fears, flaws as well as all our goodness, talents . Everything. We are all beautiful.<br />
<br />
And maybe all the kind of pressure the media gives everyone is one of the reasons Marilyn had such a tragic ending to her young life.<br />
<br />

3 years ago I started this wee little blog and even though I go through periods where I am not blogging much if at all. I always return to it and have kept at it . Not for anyone else's benefit, not because I want a ton of followers, not for any reason under the sun except I love Blogging. I like the fact I can share anything on my little patch of cyberspace. I shall be spending the day thinking in how best to celebrate this milestone and shall post up what it will be very very soon!!!!!<br />

Like most girls have I imagine, I too have a list of guys real or imaginary that I am shall we say "in love" with . I like them for various reasons character traits, circumstances I can relate too etc. We'll begin with:<br />
<br />
Orry Main.<br />
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://paperbackfool.files.wordpress.com/2010/07/patrick.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://paperbackfool.files.wordpress.com/2010/07/patrick.jpg" width="216" /></a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Isn't he handsome?!!?!?!?!?</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
Orry is from the books and TV series "North and South." He is the son of a wealthy plantation owner in South Carolina. He goes to West Point. During the journey, he meets and falls in love with beautiful New Orleans French-Creole Madeline Fabray. At the Academy he becomes great friends with George Hazard. While at the Academy the meet Bent and evil ,twisted man who instantly hates Orry and constantly harasses him and punishes him for no reason. Orry keeps writing letters to Madeline even though she haws not responded. After being gone 2 years Orry returns home on leave. While home Orry learns that Madeline is to marry Justin La Motte, who is known to be a cruel man . After Madeline's wedding Orry and she discover her father hid Orry's letters to her so that she would marry a powerful and wealthy man. She and he are both devastated and now that she is married they can't even be a couple or anything like that!!! Orry returns to the Academy and Madeline begins her life as Mrs. Justin La Motte.<br />
<br />
I'm not going to say anything more about the story as it'll spoil it for those who might watch or read it. :D ( the TV series is better. Just saying)<br />
Orry's character is amazing! He's a real gentlemen, a hero, and he is just awesome!!! Plus he and Madeline are just so great together. There is some adult content in it so I would definitely only watch it if you have parental permission, are a very mature person, or over the age of 14 or there abouts.<br />
<br />
Now some pictures of the dear guy shall we?!!! ( or should we say couple as Madeline is in all of them but one? )<br />

There are many classic books people tell you are "amazing!" "incredible" and "a must read."<br />
One I had never read was a book that kept on popping up here and there with people saying how good it was. "Anna Karenina." <br />
Eventually I decided to read it. Surely it couldn't be that bad? <br />
I am not even halfway finished and yet I am already bored, horrified and upset over the main character's transformation and idiotic choices.<br />
Frankly, I cannot see how a book with so much immorality in it can be held up so much by scores of people as a "fabulous , must read". Its kinda sad really.<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.eloqui.com/Mark%20IMAGES/Covers/CVRS11.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://www.eloqui.com/Mark%20IMAGES/Covers/CVRS11.jpg" width="320" /></a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Image on a book cover I found on-line.</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
I had to see how it ends so read up on it on Wikipedia and am happy now I know how it ends. It doesn't end happily. But, now I know how it'll end so I'm content in that knowledge.<br />
But, I am still horrified with Anna and her behaviour and what she does. I shall link to the Wikipedia article on her and the book <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anna_Karenina#Plot_summary">here</a> as it is rather long and has mature content in it. Anna is an interesting character but I do not like her very much at all.<br />
I prefer the secondary main female character Kitty. Her story is most interesting and her character delightful.<br />
Frankly, I think Leo Tolstoy 's book is more admired for his writing style and the amazing quotes then the story itself.<br />
<br />
I shall be finishing the book ,even though I know how it ends. As much as I dislike Anna herself it is a rather interesting story. And I imagine many would call it tragic. I do enjoy reading it but Anna gets to a stage where she gives me a headache and we need time apart. A new movie starring Keira Knightly in the role is coming out this year and frankly I <i>am</i> excited about that as I really feel Kiera could play the role very well. In the meantime I shall be finishing the book and then watching one of the old films of it. Watch out for a post on my finishing the book perhaps my view will have changed. And movie reviews of it.<br />
<br />
Have you ever read Anna Karenina? Or any books by Leo Tolstoy? Have you ever read a book people said was awesome only to read it and think it wasn't?<br />

11) If two witches are watching two watches, which witch would watch which watch? <span style="color: #cc0000;">Well, the first witch would watch the watch to the right which is purple.

I adore "Fawlty Towers." There is just something about it. Well, many things about it. One its hysterical, two the characters are so true to life, four Basil Fawlty : he is amazingly funny!!!!!! And five the last and most important reason : MANUEL!!!!!! Gosh , I love Manuel. I especially love when he says<br />
" Que?" Fawlty Towers is so quotable at all times, stressful, happy etc. Its so..... Everything!!!!!<br />
<br />
<br />
I find it absolutely madly hysterical when Basil and Manuel don't understand each other. The little clip below is a favorite of mine.<br />

<span style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">If you're like me you love a good story, I mean who honestly doesn't?! The thrill of excitement as you get to a crucial bit in said story, the moment of sadness when a character is dead or dying. But , again if you are like me you love reading stories about real events. Biography's , novels , they are amazing!!!! My absolute favourite real life incident to have stories based off is "The Titanic."</span>
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.solarnavigator.net/history/explorers_history/titanic_steaming_the_atlantic.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="190" src="http://www.solarnavigator.net/history/explorers_history/titanic_steaming_the_atlantic.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
Those stories are always amazing, they can be about people from any background but they always end in the climax of : the sinking on April 15th 1912 "The Unsinkable Titanic" did what many people boasted she wouldn't: She sunk. My favourite book about the Titanic is "Voyage on the Great Titanic: The Diary of Margaret Ann Brady, RMS Titanic, 1912 by Ellen Emerson White" <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51gOdrAzkbL.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51gOdrAzkbL.jpg" width="130" /></a></div>
Its awesome a young girl from London England sails as the companion of a rich lady , she is an orphan and is going to America to join her brother there. And this book has everything! Desperation, distinction between classes and what that entails, friends who will never see each other again and the sweetest most beautiful sad and gorgeous ending ever!!!! Which I'm not going to tell you as I command you to go and buy/beg/borrow or steal a copy. Okay I'm not all that heartless here is <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page">Wikipedia's review on it </a>SPOILERS ALERT! <br />
<br />
<span style="color: purple;">"<span style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;">The story begins in</span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;"> L</span>ondon<span style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;">, England, where a thirteen year old girl, Margaret Ann Brady, is keeping a diary. She explains that her parents died and her brother emigrated to America </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;">leaving her in the care of an orphanage</span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="line-height: 19px;">. The orphanage receives a request for a travelling companion</span></span></span></span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span style="line-height: 19px;"> </span></span></span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;">to accompany Mrs. Carstairs on the</span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;"> RMS Titanic.</span></span><br />
<div style="background-color: white; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-top: 0.4em;">
<span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span style="line-height: 19px;">The beginning of the trip goes more than smoothly. Margaret meets a handsome young steward, Robert, and befriends him. She thoroughly enjoys the trip, describing how big the Titanic is, and the luxuries of living on it. She has grand meals, and even shares one with some of the most important crew of the Titanic. But the ship crashes into an iceberg</span></span><span style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span style="line-height: 19px;"> and starts to sink slowly. Mrs. </span></span>Carstairs<span style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span style="line-height: 19px;"> escapes to safety on a lifeboat, and tells Margaret that they will meet up again soon.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-top: 0.4em;">
<span style="color: purple;">Margaret rushes down the ship and looks for Robert. More and more lifeboats are leaving, but she figures there will be more. Finally, she finds Robert. They chat and share a tender moment. Then they kiss. Margaret pleads for Robert to come with her to safety, but Robert declines stating he cannot leave his fellow stewards.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-top: 0.4em;">
<span style="color: purple;">Once back on top deck, Margaret leaves on the last lifeboat and is the last to board. She and her fellow passengers watch in horror as the grand ship sinks. They hear the cries of the dead as they move on, rescuing a few people from the cold waters. She says that she could not forget the screams of the dead going down with the ship. She also states that she will not forgive herself for letting Robert go, nor for surviving the Titanic.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-top: 0.4em;">
<span style="color: purple;">In New York, Margaret says farewell to Mrs. Carstairs and finds William. They travel to his home in Boston and the story ends. " </span> </div>

<span style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span style="line-height: 19px;"> And once again if you are like me you are extremely excited that next month is a hundred years since the sinking of "The Unsinkable Titanic" Do you have a favourite event in history that you enjoy reading about?</span></span></div>

One of the things I love the most is swinging. :] I've always loved them and I think I always will, my Mummy still goes on them. :D <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.pastelportraits.net/images/His%20SwingL.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://www.pastelportraits.net/images/His%20SwingL.JPG" width="215" /></a></div> There is no right words to describe the feeling you get when swinging. Excited and Joyful don't quite cut it. Its both those and more, its a Thrilling Adventure, and (most importantly) a Journey in Poetry and Song. <br />
Because very time I go on a swing I feel like singing, songs I've heard , songs that just pop into my head while swinging or I begin having poetry float about my head. Especially this old poem by Robert Louis Stevenson "The Swing"<br />
<br />
<span class="f14px fntAri clr333333"> How do you like to go up in a swing, <br />
Up in the air so blue? <br />
Oh, I do think it the pleasantest thing <br />
Ever a child can do! <br />
<br />
Up in the air and over the wall, <br />
Till I can see so wide, <br />
River and trees and cattle and all <br />
Over the countryside-- <br />
<br />
Till I look down on the garden green, <br />
Down on the roof so brown-- <br />
Up in the air I go flying again, <br />
Up in the air and down! </span><br />

I live!!!!Hello all! Yes, I know its been awhile since I wrote some blog post besides A Damsels Day Book. But, I have been using this time to re think about: Why I blog. What do I really want to blog about. And trying to think how much time I actually need on the computer each day. Computers are awesome right? And Google.... Well, Google is my friend. But, I know personally that if I spend to much time in front of a screen I don't do any creative stuff or read much of any good books. And it doesn't do a thing for me. I'm looking to find more balance in my life so I'm going to be seriously trying to find it. I'll be back once I've finished working out my list of stuff I actually want to blog about. *blows kisses* Bless you all!<br />
