Teagan and Dan Brown

Hi! Well, just to let you know, Teagan, I wrote this BEFORE you gave me the inbox at March 19, 7:57. Oh, and this is the "surprise" post. This post is about Teagan, one of my friends, and Dan Brown, one of my favourite authors. Well, let's start with Teagan -

Well, ever since Teagan wrote this :
I just wanted to have a quick little chat about my friend Edmond's blog. Now, unlike me he normally updates his blog once a day. Sometimes he publishes more than one post in a day. I wish I could be like that. And, his posts are really readable also. They're not boring at all!! I actually choose to read his 'short' posts while I'm brushing my teeth in the morning. Because they normally take me about two minutes if not more. But his 'long' posts take me up to 10 minutes to read most of the time, I choose to read them when I'm eating my breakfast. Or when I have a minute after school so I can actually think about what I'm reading. Enough rambling already, here is a link to get you to his blog-----> Edmond's Center. I feel bad when Edmond tells me that he checks my blog every day because I'm pretty bad for making a post a day. But enough about that.

Teagan - I think your posts are really good as well, and I am really curious on how you got some ideas for some of your posts, because your posts are really unique (in a good way) and I like the way how she types. I think she chooses a great variety of vocabulary, such as the following:

It doesn't look too bad.. but to me it was unappealing. Pretty much, the first impression was not so good.. Until I opened the book. That musty smell that I love in a book lifted off the pages like a bird from an unlatched cage! But, it gets better. I opened the book to the point of both covers touching, and heard that sound.. of the plastic covering on the outside.. crackling ever so slightly! I love the sound of a used book. And, this book didn't even look used because of the plastic covering.. With me I use my 4 scents in this order... First, I smell. Then, I feel. Next, I listen. Last, I look and observe!

That was really description and I think everyone should check out her blog by clicking here. But I want everyone to remember the URL as well - which
is http://teagansgalaxy.blogspot.com The Name, Teagan's Galaxy, was actually thought by Teagan after I gave a few suggestions. Well, read the post here

I remembered at first semester, Teagan was at my gym class, but I never noticed her. I didn't even know she existed. It wasn't until French, where she sat in front of me and Dan. I think she was sitting next to Arshdeep. I think we had a small chat here and then, and she looked smart, like Chloe and Ashley. (Well, in English, I found out they are friends, lol) . Well, anyways, I didn't talk to her since (I thought she was mean) Dan moved, but she did talk to me on Facebook Chat...about Dan. I think we've only been friends for 1 month. To tell you the truth, I don't even think I should publish this right now... Should I? Well anyways, back to the topic, I think we started being friends from Facebook. I talked to her on Facebook occasionally. Then, I talked to her some more and now we are friends...I think...(jk). Well, that's about it, I'm going to talk about Dan Brown now. I've read ALL books written by Dan Brown. Well, his books are really good, and the first book I've read is Digital Fortress. DigitalFortress.jpg Digital Fortress is one of my favourite Dan Brown books. Well, I like them all. Well, actually Deception Point was my least favourite, but it was still good, it was just I had high expectations. My favourite, if I had to pick one, would be Angels and Demons. I like this book because the ambigrams are so cool! Here's the cover - File:AngelsAndDemons.jpg Now turn your head upside down, and Angels and Demons upside down is still Angels and Demons! Brilliant! Learn more here - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angels_%26_Demons There is lots of killing in this book, and 4 people die from Earth, Air, Fire and Water.
Earth - gets dirt shoved down his throat
Air - Lungs Punctured
Fire - Burnt
Water - Drowned
And they say stuff about Renaissance people on how some of them are evil. (In The Da Vinci Code, they said Leonardo Da Vinci was a homosexual!)
Well anyways, the only not positive thing I have to say about Dan Brown is there is always sex in his book. Not that I'm complaining or anything, but sometimes it just ruins the book, because its just a random chapter that doesn't even affect the story. Like in Digital Fortress, there is just a random chapter about a prostitute and an overweight man having sex, and then the overweight man lands on top of the prostitute, suffocating her, and she dies. LOL! And then the man dies too. I remember when I showed Devin, he was smiling the whole time! Haha, I think its his type of book! And there was a lot of unnecessary swearing. Just random F words. I don't mind it, and I don't love it. Well, Digital Fortress is his first novel, so what would you expect? All his other books contain sex too, but, oh well. I really recommend you to read Dan Brown's book! That's all I have to say in the post! BYE!!!!! :)
