My Guitar is Fixed!!!

Hey guys it's ki, I originally had a different post idea for today but I haven't fully finished the concept sooo it will most likely be up next week. But, I actually have a really exciting post for me because....

MY GUITAR IS FIXED

So a while back my Grampa got me an acoustic guitar for my birthday, and I was super excited. That day (or a few days later) one of my friends was over and when I was working on finishing up something on my computer in another room, he started tuning my guitar. While tuning he accidentally broke one of my strings, and so since then I had a broken string (I had gotten a new set of strings but me being space out me totally cut them all to the wrong lengths and they were unusable). Probably about a month ago my mom ordered me a set of strings off of Wish (it's an online shopping app that has really cool stuff pretty cheap, although it takes a long time to ship) and they came in a week or two ago. So the other day I rode up to my dad's and grabbed my cutter pliers to cut the strings with and when I got home I put the new strings on. I'm super happy that I got them and put the new set on my guitar. Anyways this was just sort of a little story because I was really happy about it, if you'd like a tutorial post on how I change out my strings (without a string winder, peg pullers, or any actual guitar tools) then go ahead and leave a comment asking for one. Thanks for reading, love y'all stay amazing, stay you, and I will see you next week!!
(PS if you didn't know, I have a new video up on my YouTube too! Go check it out, and if you came from my YouTube leave me a comment telling me, I'm curious who will.)

Have a lovely day

New Books!

Lately I've been going to my town library a LOT more often, in the first couple weeks of summer I've already completed four books. So I figured I could give any readers some suggestions for good book series to read (I prefer to read series, it keeps me busier longer. But if you'd like some single books just send me an email or comment on this post, I'll give some).

Firstly is the series I'm currently reading, one of my favorites. This series is called the Ember series (I believe, I'm not quite sure the series name), by Jeanne DuPrau. The first book is called The City of Ember, and there are four books in total (City of Ember, The People of Sparks, The Prophet of Yonwood, and The Diamond of Darkhold). These stories are science fiction novels that take place in a post-apocalyptic United States. Each book is approximately 300 pages long, and they're honestly not very challenging reads. I've loved the first book for many years until I discovered that it was a series, and the rest of the books have me just as captured. To sum things up, the first two books (Ember and Sparks) follow two pre-teens as they find a way into the post-disaster world from the place they have lived in for generations (250+ years). Sparks tells the tale of what happens after they take their townspeople into the world and find a small town. Yonwood actually serves as a prequel to the first two books, telling a tale of a girl in a town in the US that had "visions of the future" from what they believe to be God. It ends telling how Ember began and tying the very end of the book in to the beginning of Ember. Then finally there's Darkhold, which I haven't completed but continues the story of the people of Ember.

Another wonderful series I started (and haven't finished because the town library does not own any of the series so I'm buying the rest of the books myself) is the Land of Stories series by actor, singer, author, and producer Chris Colfer (he played Kurt Hummel in Glee). This series interested me most because it takes average pre-teens of this time into the fairy tales we've known as children. It adds creative insight and add-ons to the fairy tales and characters I love from famous tales like Cinderella, Rapunzel, Snow White, and more. There are currently (to my knowledge) 4 books released and a 5th coming out soon (don't take my word for it). I absolutely love these and would recommend these to anyone that loved fairy tales as a child or currently loves fairy tales, the first book in the series is called The Land of Stories: The Wishing Spell.

Since those are the only series I'm currently working on, go check them out! I absolutely love both of them. Have a great day and keep on reading lovelies!!!!! (PS all posts are now on Mondays)

The New Setup

I did it!! I've finally configured my blog to my satisfaction, and boy did it take a lot of stuff. I hope y'all like it, I was really nervous about the summary part because it involved configuring the HTML template of my blog and although I enjoy coding, I usually mess up at least a little while doing it. Thanks to Stephanie from over at thesepaperhearts.com -her tutorial was the one that I actually understood and succeeded with.

I love y'all look forward to new posts soon!!
