Conclusion

I never knew how much I'd like blogging. I knew I would like it, but not this much. So with that being said, this is not a conclusion. This is just the beginning. I plan on continuing with my blog forever...well, maybe not forever.
I love the freedom that I can write whatever I like, and someone out there, someone like you, will read it.

I was very excited when I was first given the assignment of blogging, but not so much about picking a idea. I probably switched my idea a million times, but I'm happy with what I finally chose. You have to admit, a feminine lifestyle was a pretty good choice considering me.

So don't worry, this isn't a "real" conclusion. I will be continuing with this blog. I have tons of things I want to post about. Who knows, maybe one day I'll become famous? Doubt it, but still, this is a lot of fun.

Book Club?

Hello dolls! How has your weekend been?
Mine was full with: laundry, re-arrganging my room, and of course homework,

At school the other day, I was in the library working on my blog during my Writer's Workshop class. As I was walking out of the library I saw an assortment of books with pink books. It got me to thinking...I miss reading. I used to read all the time when I was younger. It seems that ever since I got into high school, I stopped reading for fun. It seemed I was just reading what was required of me. 

I decided that I wanted to start reading again. Of course, I thought bigger than that. What if I started a book club? There is one problem, where am I going to find the time to read a book, and where was I going to find the time to meet with the people. That's when a bell went off in my head. It went like *ding ding*. The bell then talked and said, "Diamond, you have a blog, you can make your readers part of your book club."

Great idea, right?
I know.

The books will have to be fabulous or deal with something feminine.

So the plan is that I'm going to start this when I get more readers. 
The goal? 12 books per year. Sounds reasonable, right? 1 book a month.

Maybe when I find more time, I can expand to 2 books a month, for 24 books a year.

We will be so intelligent!

While on the subject I recommend this amazing book by Clinton Kelly (co-host of What Now To Wear):
"Freakin' Fabulous"

I picked this up from Borders for 40% off (They're going out of business.) I absolutely love this book, EVERY person in the world should read it. It covers everything from partying, entertaining, cooking, and behaving.

Ta Ta for now.
