Today wasn't as adventurous as I thought it would be. Well, I read a book about adventure if that counts? I went to the library again today. Not my usual Saturday but the parental needed to get some study done so I offered for us to go to the library instead of hanging out at home. We did that. Go to the library I mean, not stayed home. If we stayed home I would have blogged hours ago and told you repeatedly how bored I was. So we went there and I felt like reading an actual book rather than my usual magazines. Now before any of you think the worst of me, I have actually read a book before. A whole book, shock horror. I have actually read multipul books. Loads of them. But this one books series I felt like reading is kind of a children's series. It's called A Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket. I know it's a children's series but I can't help but love the characters, mystery and the drama. I guess it's more Gothic fiction than it is children's. But when I was there and wanted to go and get it, I discovered that it was in the Junior Fiction section. It shouldn't have surprised me but it did. The trouble with that is that in the library I was in today (which is different to the library I'm at 5 days a week), the junior section is completely sealed off and there are only little children running around there. I was embarrassed to go in there and search for my book but I did it anyway and it turns out that there was another girl my age looking for books there anyway. Plus some adults on the computers telling the children to be quiet. He kept doing it so I told him that he shouldn't do that because he was the one in the wrong section and if he didn't want to noise then he should move to one of the computers outside of the kids area. It didn't make any sense for him to be in there. Silly billy.
I don't really have anything else to talk about. I'm trying to think of something. Well, tomorrow I'm going to apply for 10 jobs. I don't know how thrilling that is but it was something to say. I read this book today about ghosts. It showed a series of photographs that people had taken when they thought they had seen a ghost. I must admit, two of the photographs showed the most amazing images I have ever seen. In one of the photos was a little girl but she was clearly not an average little by her appearance. It was so clear, the way they captured that on film is really astounding. I want to look up the most haunted buildings in the world now and find out all about the people who use to live in these places and how they came to be there. I think I may believe in ghosts now. I can't explain it, it's just a feeling that tells me they're real. I'm going to do my research now. Back in a bit.
Okay, that went well. I was a little creeped out about some of the stories that I read. The one that got me the most was about a boy who died aboard the Queen Mary ocean liner in the 30s or something. A fire had erupted on board and he was crushed to death in the engine room whilst trying to escape. They say that if you walk past the room now, you can hear banging and cry's for help coming from inside the room. That story was powerful. I could hear the banging. I could see it. Another story I liked was the one about Australia's most haunted house. I think you should look it up as it's quite an interesting read. I'm not going to say anymore about it other than it was pretty cool and not at scary as I thought it would be. However, then I looked at the photos of the inside of the house and I could see why it would be haunted and not why someone would actually live there now like a family is.
I don't really know what else to talk about so I might just leave it here. Happy blogging everyone.
Bye-Bye!
