MY JOHN GREEN BOX SET CAME!

Hello!

Today, I did a lot, but nothing in particular. I babysat Ayden and Chase, which was fun. They have Spiderman Transformers, and I was so proud when I was able to turn the action figure into a car! I have to say that it was sort of difficult, but really fun! This one is venom:

The highlight of my day was when I received a call about school being closed tomorrow! I was so happy! I like school, but I'd rather not go, if you know what I mean...

Anyways, the real reason why I had to post was... *Drumroll*

I FINALLY GOT MY JOHN GREEN BOX SET, AND IT'S SIGNED AND MADE OF AWESOME!!!! ALSO, IT'S PRETTY!

I was squealing away the entire time I was opening it, and it couldn't have come at a better time, I get the feeling that with school closed tomorrow for the big storm, and possibly (probably) Tuesday as well, I will have plenty of time to read all of Mr. Green's collective works! 

The box itself has really cool quotes from the books on it. For instance:

"I fell in love the way you fall asleep: slowly, then all at once." (I'm pretty sure that that one's from TFIOS)

"If people were rain, I was drizzle and she was a hurricane." (Paper Towns?)

I'm so excited! They are so pretty and precious, and I'm pretty sure that these will end up like my hardcover box set Harry Potters, they will live in their own corner of my bedroom, only be touched by my fingers, and preferably read in my utopia (I'm laying down on my bed with tea in my right hand, my email open on my lap top, snow outside, "Cosmic Love" being whispered by the stereo, and Louie laying down on my shoulder, with my head resting on his warm fur). This utopia almost always includes Fred and George Weasley, and, since I always re-read Harry Potter's on snow days, specifically the fifth book, they always say about a thousand things that leave me laughing. 

Some of my favorites are:

"You don't want to bottle your anger up like that, Harry, let it all out," said Fred, beaming. 

"There might be a couple people fifty miles away who didn't hear you." 

"Has Ron saved a goal yet?" asked Hermione.

"Well, he can do it if he thinks no one is watching him," said Fred, rolling his eyes. "So all we have to do is ask the crowd to turn their backs and talk among themselves every time the Quaffle goes up on his end Saturday." 

''Oh, are you a Prefect, Percy?'' said one of the twins, with an air of great surprise. ''You should have said something, we had no idea.''
''Hang on, I think I remember him saying something about it,' said the other twin.''Once– ''
''Or twice–''
''A minute– ''
''All summer–''

(This is when the Order of the Phoenix tell Harry that six of them are going to disguise themselves as him.)
"This is different, pretending to be me-"
"Well, none of us really fancy it, Harry," said Fred earnestly. "Imagine if something went wrong and we were stuck as specky, scrawny gits forever."
Harry did not smile.
"You can't do it if I don't cooperate, you need me to give you some hair."
"Well that plan's scuppered," said George. "Obviously there's no chance at all of us getting a bit of your hair unless you cooperate."
"Yeah, thirteen of us against one bloke who's not allowed to use magic; we've got no chance," said Fred.

"Funny," said Harry, "really amusing."

Classics have to the "We're identical!" and the "Gred and Forge" incident. Also I love when the Weasley family is stuck in Harry's fireplace and Ron asks if something went wrong, and they respond sarcastically, "No, no this is exactly where we wanted to end up". 

I've gotten completely carried away!!!

If the power does go out, I will try and save enough juice on my phone to write something like, "Storm... Battery Low... Can't elaborate... Bye!" 

Stay Safe!
