Monthly Recap

MONTHLY RECAP | December 2013

December 31, 2013 Comments : 8

The holiday season is over. :( How sad. It has been absolutely wonderful.

inmylife

I can’t remember much of what happened in December. So many things happened, but I guess it’s not worth dwelling on it, right?

ME + MY PLANS FOR NEW YEARS (EVE)

Well, the big news (not really big) is that on Saturday, I sprained my ankle leaping across my room to get a book. Yeah, I you read that right. I feel ridiculous. Lol. I don’t know why I was leaping at the time, but damn. I landed on my ankle at an angle and heard a loud pop/crack. DDD: Now, I’m bed-ridden with my ankle elevated, which sucks. That’s how I will be spending New Years. Stuck in bed. I hope you are doing something awesome so I can live vicariously through you. ;D

I had my blog’s first blogoversary on December 19th! I want to thank everybody – friends, followers, strangers – who have left a comment on my blog. You do not know how much I appreciate every one of them. They honestly make my entire day. You are all the best! <3

For my blog header, I’m thinking of having the narwhal wear a different hat every month. Y’know, to spice up the blog a little. ;D Also, I made an entirely new blog icon. It will be unveiled in the New Year! Watch out for that!

    Oh no! I hope your ankle heals up soon. Haha I can’t wait to see all the narwhal hats. I’m sure they’re going to be cute. I’ve been seeing Angelfall on people’s blog post. Must be a great read. My December was great. Lots of homework though, but my Christmas was awesome! Wishing you a great New Year’s!

      It’s getting better! I can walk so yayyyy!

      You should definitely read Angelfall. It’s one of the bet angel books out there! (And I don’t usually like them.)

      I hope you had a wonderful New Years too! :D

    Ouch! I cringed reading this post. I’ve sprained my ankle twice before (sporting injuries from back before I became a lazy slob) so I know how you’re feeling. D: I can’t help but have a chuckle over it though. Leaping for a book? Bwaha! You take it easy, you! <3

      At least you sprained it while doing sports. I felt slightly embarrassed that I was only getting a book, but I was not surprised it happened. The things that happen when I rush to get a book *sigh* ;D

    Oh my gosh hahaha I just laughed so hard. You seriously sprained your ankle leaping to get a book? I’m sorry, it’s probably not funny to you (hope you feel better!), but that’s such a book-lover thing to do! I’m surprised it hasn’t happened to me before, actually ;)

      Ha! IKR. It’s pretty funny after the fact. Life of a book lover, I guess. ;D

      Well, I hope it doesn’t happen to you! It’s a pain not being able to do anything.

    Umm wow, that must have hurt you baaad! I laughed a little and probably you will too after the initial embarrassment is over. Also, I think you’re a true booknerd now. So yay. =D

    I spent my New Year’s finishing the VA series in bed. It was awesome because after The Raven Cycle and Throne of Glass series, it was a perfect end to December and 2013.

    So happy for the one year mark. It’s an unmatched feeling of accomplishment. =D

      MY PRIDE WAS WOUNDED, but hey, at least I have major book nerd street cred. ;D

      Ooh, how are the books? I read the first and just wasn’t into it. (I prefer the Bloodlines series because Adrian Ivashkov. *swoons*)

      Thanks! I’m so excited for another year!
