Feelings/Updates; I have had a slightly better day,i didn't start reading until late afternoon, and I did it because I wanted too rather than I had too. I don't know how the readathon will pan out for me but I need to have faith, I am doing what I can and iwill enjoy it, I am still ill, my medication, well one of them, has being tripled!! Therefore most of time I am a walking zombie and It will get worse this week until my body adjusts. GREAT! If it makes me pain free again in long run I am not complaining. I have not being on twitter today but I have visited lots of blogs and commented on a lot and I will do some more tonight :) my reading progress will be updated later.
Challenges.
*****Today's first challenge is hosted by Curiosity Killed the Bookworm, and the challenge is to write a Limerick, it is explained on the blog.
Here goes;
She loves 2 read pages n pages
She finks she has ages n ages
She must remember 'er blog
It weighs 'er darn lika log
But in real life neither pay the wages.
***** In the second challenge, hosted by The Grammarians Reviews, the challenge is to Relocate! the book you are reading?
Here is mine;
Book is 'Thy Neighbor' by Norah Vincent, set in a suburban neighbourhood, and he spy's on all the neighbours by getting cameras fitted in their houses. I would relocate him to working in a secret FBI investigation centre whereby he watches millions of different cameras to try to crack cases. He has to find the cameras and find the time frame- this way he is filling his urge to soy on people and know what they are doing, but as well as doing a good thing for the world and to get recognition and a sense of achievement. He feels like he missed out on this growing up and now he can have everything he ever wanted in life and still spy on everything hehe.********The third challenge is hosted by 'Once Upon a Time' and will be completed tomorrow as there is no end date.
I like that he'd be doing a good thing instead of just being a neighborhood creeper. :P Nice answer!
