Wanna know what they wrote? About Paper Towns, Michael Cart writes, "Green ponders the interconnectedness of im… Continue

Juno

I am probably the only Nerdfighter that had not already seen Juno. I finally watched it last night. I am in Juno love! How awesome is that movie? I think the best way to sum it up is "Thundercats, GOOOOOOO!"

And hehe, I honestly had NO idea that Hank was going to be putting clips of people's covers in his new video, so when I went to watch it I saw myself and went "ZOMG"

So cool.

What books are you reading right now?

At 3:11pm on July 3rd, 2008, Cameron Huston said…: Yeah.. but if oyu think about it, he probably gets tons of people asking him to put stuff on the front page a lot.. it may have to be bigger of a project for him to notice.

But keep on trying! He'll notice someday. =]

At 3:02pm on July 3rd, 2008, Cameron Huston said…: Ah, I see. Persepolis IS really good, even if you hate the graphic novel.

Haha, it's "quiz lauri about books" time. lol

I will be at my bookstore at 12:00 when Paper towns comes out. I can't wait to get it.
