The Life of a Girl Named Kailee

Aloha!

Again this is not a review (sorry Sunny...), but I wanted to inform you of a new link in my "M U S T Check Out!" section. I added a new blog called "The Life of a Girl Named Kailee. Kailee is the girl who writes the blog, just in case you didn't guess that already. She is also a YouTube beauty guru who I am Obessed with. Notice the capital "O"? She is so amazing! She's gorgeous, super nice, funny and she is a looot like me! Allow me to explain:
1: I am gorgeous too....HA! Just kidding!
1(for real): She always rambles in her videos. I ramble too all the time...everyone (especially my family) always says "Destiny! STOP it and get to the POINT!" $; hehe....
2: She is really funny. I always have my friends laughing at what I say...I don't try to be funny on purpose, it's o-naturalle.
3: She is very crazy. <--THAT IS A GREAT THING! I think it would be boooring if all gurus were serious and calm.

That is all I can think of, but please check out Kailee's videos! I'll link all of the information here:

Her beauty channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/kaileemckenzie
Her Vlog channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/LittleMissKailee

Her Facebook fanpage (she actually posts on it):  http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/pages/Kaileemckenzie/149855305073972

UPDATE!

Heeey!

I know that I don't blog on here as much as I should...and I apologize. I know that is probably the reason that I don't have many followers, but that's ok by me because I love to blog! This is just going to be a little update.

I want to say that this summer I will totally update more! (I wish I didn't just say that, because now I'll have to be true to that...) but I guess that's a good thing because my followers and readers (people who don't have a Blogger account but still read my blog), deserve this. You guys deserve my time....I know I'm getting all sentimental, but for some reason, I'm in a more serious mood right now..!

So I wanted to say that even if I don't blog very often, I do check my e-mail fairly regularly...at least once a week. That means, if you have any requests, sent them straight to my inbox! dee.jay.dee.123@hotmail.com be sure to put "blog", "This Girl's Viewpoint, "TGV" or something in the subject line so if it gets sent to my junk, I'll know not to delete it.

I would really appreciate some requests for future blog posts! I don't just do reviews. I can do other things such as...well I dunno, but send me ideas and requests and I'll try to make a post on that! I can also say your name in the post, for example; "Bob sent in this request...". So just let me know if you want to be included in the post.

You can also comment on my blog even if you don't have an account. Simply click on "Comment as" and choose "Name" or "Anonymous".

Thanks so much for reading!

Island Girl

Hey everyone(:

First let me say, you guys can scold me all you want about the fact that I left this blog to the last minute. I said that I was going to blog sometime this week..and I really just left that to the very, very, VERY last minute. But I'm here now, so it's all good!

This review is going to be on a book! This is my second book review...I don't know why I said that! ;P

The book is called Island Girl. The author is Sandra Byrd. Since it is getting closer and closer to the summer time (HURRAY!) I figured this would be an appropriate post. I could have waited until it was actually summer to make this, but I really want to make it now.

The main characters in this book are; Meg West and Tia Ramos. I'll just put in the back summary for you first.

~~~

Every summer thirteen-year-old Meg returns to the berry fields of her grandparents' Oregon farm. But this year everything is different. Back home, her mother is remarried with a new baby on the way, and Meg isn't sure where she fits in the family anymore. And now the comfortable familiarity of the farm has changed, too. There's a new girl, Tia, whose father has been hired to run the farm--a job Meg had hoped her army colenel dad would take over when he retires.
During this season of growth, Meg faces the challenges of figuring out what life, family and friendship are all about. And like the vines in her grandfather's fields, Meg strives to be a strong branch that bears sweet, plentiful fruit.

~~~

Island Girl is a really great book! My Uncle gave it to me quite a few years ago, and I love it so much! I think I like it that much because I am one for realistic fiction and that is what this book is. The back summary basically describes everything for you. The fact that Meg goes to her grandparents' berry farm every summer, her mom is remarried and she's going to have a baby (so that means that Meg has a stepdad), there is a new girl Tia, Meg's dad is an army colonel...and all that stuff!

This book is a Christian book, but I think that even if you are not a Christian, this book is still very good.

I really recommend this book because it is just super good! I read it at least once every year, maybe more. If you are a Christian (which I am), this book will definitely help you grow in your faith.

You could probably find it at your local library or a book store!

'Til next time! (I hope that will be sooner than later!),

Sorry!

Hello!

This is just going to be a very short blog post, saying that I am really sorry that I haven't posted for almost a month! O: But I will have a new post up later this week. I wanted to say that I might have it up later this week, but if I tell you guys that I'll have it up for sure, then I will be forced to make that happen! So...

I will have some kind of new post up later this week!(:

Look forward to it! E-mail me any requests you have for future posts.

Destiny(:
