Waiting on Wednesday (49) + August Celebration Giveaway Reminder!

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event hosted at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that I'm eagerly awaiting. This week I can't wait for Fall for Anything by Courtney Summers which is the next novel by the wonderful Summers whose books are just beyond amazing. And also wow the cover and summary are so intriguing and interesting, I can't wait to get a copy when it comes out this winter on December 21, 2010! The cover and summary below are from Goodreads.

When Eddie Reeves’s father commits suicide her life is consumed by the nagging question of why? Why when he was a legendary photographer and a brilliant teacher? Why when he had a daughter who loved him more than anyone else in the world? When she meets Culler Evans, a former student of her father’s and a photographer himself, an instant and dangerous attraction begins. He seems to know more about her father than she does and could possibly hold the key to the mystery surrounding his death. But Eddie’s vulnerability has weakened her and Culler Evans is getting too close. Her need for the truth keeps her hanging on… but some questions should be left unanswered.

Delirium

By: Lauren Oliver

Description from Goodreads:
---------------------------------------------

Before scientists found the cure, people thought love was a good thing. They didn’t understand that one love -the deliria- blooms in your blood, there is no escaping its hold. Things are different now. Scientists are able to eradicate love, and the governments demands that all citizens receive the cure upon turning eighteen. Lena Holway has always looked forward to the day when she’ll be cured. A life without love is a life without pain: safe, measured, predictable, and happy.

But with ninety-five days left until her treatment, Lena does the unthinkable: She falls in love.

I just started to study for the SATs which I'm taking on January 23rd. I was looking at my swim practice & school schedules and realized I have finals the 22nd and 25th. I didn't even think about finals when I signed up, so that week is not going to be fun at all. The High School has an early dismissal because of finals on Friday, but I have practice after school from 2 to 5 PM. Then I have Saturday morning practice 6 to 7:30 AM on SAT day. Oh and I have a swim meet the night before finals too.

Also, my coach is little crazy, and we have to have a certain amount of hours to be able to swim in a meet. I've already missed two practice because I was sick and still am sick, and I'm going to miss a couple of practice over Christmas vacation to go to my dads. The only time over xmas break we don't have three hour practices is Christmas day, New Year's day, and Sundays. We also have morning practices from 6 to 7:15 Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays...we don't have morning practice when it's a day after a meet thankfully. Anyways, I'm definitely not going to Saturday practice at 6 in the morning, it's so ridiculous! I'm freaking out now over finals and SATs and have no idea where to start studying. If anyone who's taking the SATs can give me any kind of advice or tips, I would totally appreciate it. Thanks!

Contest Reminder, New Winter Layout, and Other Things!

Also I redid my header with snowflakes, changed the background for the millionth time, added a Christmas tree countdown, and finally got rid of all the pink : D I don't really like pink, but somehow everything was pink haha.
