BOOK-REPORT

Starstruk: Miranda is a teenage girl that wins a contest to get a special week with famous movie star, Bryon Slater. Miranda and two other girls were selected to go to this paradise of a house, but Bryon hates this house. He believes that a crazed fan is out to kill him and that she is in the same house as him. Miranda starts believing that the crazed fan that goes by the name Starstruk is going to kill her to get to Bryon. One day when Miranda is sitting next to the pool a statue falls and almost kills her. She believes that a person pushed it over intentionally trying to hurt her. Then one night Miranda, Bryon, and the the two other girls go to dinner at a private club. When they are about to leave the club fans surround it. Bryon and his bodygaurd get caught in the crowd. Bryon's bodygaurd is killed and he is injured. Then later that night Miranda overhears a conversation between Bryon's publicist and agent. She heard that Bryon's bodygaurd had been stabbed to death in the crowd. The next day Bryon's publicist tells Miranda that she wants to talk to her in private. When Miranda goes up to her room to talk to Peg, the publicist, She finds her body in the hottub on her balcony. Then Miranda get knocked out. She wakes up in a cabin out in the middle of nowhere. She sees two people on either side of the cabin one is Bryon's "friend" Nick and on the other side is Bryon. She sees that they both hold guns in their hands. They start arguing about how Bryon is starstruk and that he did everything to get sympathy. Then one of them fires a shot Miranda gets up and starts running toward the road, but she trips and falls over the gaurdrail. She barely gets ahold of the gaurdrail but now she is dangling over the edge of a shear 200 foot drop. She then sees Nicks face and he tells her to grab his hand and to trust him. As soon as she grabs hold of his hand he lets go but she grabs ahold of a tree root. Then when Miranda looks up she sees Bryon and Nick fighting. Bryon starts pushing Nick over the edge as hes getting pushed over the he reverses the attack and throws Bryon over the edge. Nick then helps Miranda up and brings her back to the house. I guess Bryon really was the bad guy after all.

San Diego

    It was December 27, a below zero day in Minnesota, and I'm glad i wasn't here. I was in San Diego, California with my family. We arrived in San Diego at around 2 in the afternoon. It was really, really hot there. I think it was in the 80's. The first thing we did was rent a car and checked into the hotel. Then we drove around and looked at the scenery. I tried to take a nap but i had an ear ache from the flight. My ears felt like somone stuck toothpicks in them. but we did tons of awesome stuff like going to the zoo, the amusement park, and we saw shamu. [:
