Fun Friday: Give Me Something to Sing About! (58)

Fun Friday: Give Me Something to Sing About! is where you guys get to see a song or two I like or that I want to talk about each week. Thanks as always goes to J.J. at Random Musings for help with the title.

Here's a song I really like:



(Patterns by Band of Skulls.)

Yep, heard it on Castle. I really like the title of the CD, too. "Baby darling doll face honey" just amuses me. What do you guys think?

Waiting on Wednesday (72)

Waiting on Wednesday is, of course, brought to us by the lovely Jill at Breaking the Spine.

I have absolutely NO theme this week besides the same release day. On the plus side, you won't have to wait long for either of these!

I Am J by Cris Beam - To be released March 1st, 2011

"Hola, Jeni."

J spun. His stomach clenched hard, as though he'd been hit. It was just the neighbor lady, Mercedes. J couldn't muster a hello back, not now; he didn't care that she'd tell his mom he'd been rude. She should know better. Nobody calls me Jeni anymore.

J always felt different. He was certain that eventually everyone would understand who he really was: a boy mistakenly born as a girl. Yet as he grew up, his body began to betray him; eventually J stopped praying to wake up a "real boy" and started covering up his body, keeping himself invisible - from his family, from his friends...from the world. But after being deserted by the best friend he thought would always be by his side, J decides that he's done hiding - it's time to be who he really is. And this time he is determined not to give up, no matter the cost.

(Summary from goodreads.)

Why I want to read this: I've read a book that sounds a bit like this, Luna, and loved it, so I can't wait to read this one. :)

Dark Mirror by M.J. Putney - To be released March 1st, 2011

Lady Victoria Mansfield, youngest daughter of the Earl and
Countess of Fairmount, is destined for a charmed life. Soon she
will be presented during the London season, where she can choose a mate worthy of her status.

Yet Tory has a shameful secret—a secret so powerful that, if exposed, it could strip her of her position and disgrace her family forever. Tory’s blood is tainted... by magic. When a shocking accident forces Tory to demonstrate her despised skill, the secret she’s fought so hard to hide is revealed for all to see. She is immediately exiled to Lackland Abbey, a reform school for young men and women in her position. There she will learn to suppress her deplorable talents and maybe, if she’s one of the lucky ones, be able to return to society.

But Tory’s life is about to change forever. All that she’s ever known or considered important will be challenged. What lies ahead is only the beginning of a strange and wonderful journey into a world where destiny and magic come together, where true love and friendship find her, and where courage and strength of character are the only things that determine a young girl’s worth.

(Summary from goodreads.)

Why I want to read this: Okay. Story time! Once upon a time, when I was a wee little Laina, I had an imaginary friend who lived in the mirror. Now, I have no idea how much mirrors are actually part of this, but the person looking back at her from the other side of the mirror is really speaking to me in the cover.

Okay, so what are you guys waiting on this week?

Laina

Things I Talk About on Twitter (6)

So as you might know, I work at the library, doing Storytime for 3-5 year olds. It happens in the back room of the library which I have been working on making a bit more colourful as it was rather grey and boring before.

Here's what it looks like now (click on any of the pictures to make them bigger):

First wall. The butterflies and bees are leftover from last summer's Where the Wild Things Are themed programs. I thought they were cute, so I kept them. I think I might make some more butterflies, too.
My full Hey-Diddle-Diddle Wall, and our craft tables. The blue thingies are leftover from a special event the library hosted. They were bright and colourful, so we left them up there.
This wall isn't decorated as well, but I ran out of time to do another drawing, so... it is what it is. My felt board's along this wall, and this is where I set up the extra books (you can see some of them here, but usually there are more) here, so it usually has a bit more going on.
Close up of Humpty Dumpty. I rather like his face, and the wall. This one might just be my favourite.
I like the cat, but not the fiddle as much. I'm not good with colouring wood things. Ah, well. Not bad.
(Hey, diddle, diddle, The cat and the fiddle)
I love the cow. It was so easy to do and I think it turned out pretty well.
(The cow jumped over the moon.)
The dog was the first one I tackled. It's not half bad, is it?
(The little dog laughed, To see such sport,)
I think these two are really cute.
(And the dish ran away with the spoon.)
I don't love the hickory dickory dock clock, but it works. The mouse is kinda cute.
I also set up a mini toy Storytime. I think it's cute. :)
(Ignore the boxes of books. There's no room for them in the back room, so I put them out here. If I hid them in the back, I wouldn't be able to get to my craft supplies.)

So. Whatcha think? Suggestions for jazzing it up? Oh, and what else would you like to see in these posts?

Peace and cookies,
Laina
