How long till the Hunger Games Movie comes out....

Hi, I've been unwell for some time now. Anyway during my time which has mainly comprised of sleeping, eating and taking panadol I have somehow found the time to be bored (I've just finished watching my NCIS rental DVDs twice) So I was thinking 'I wish the hunger games movie would hurry up and get on the big screen' I proceeded to my blog where I discovered:


188 Days until the Hunger Games Movie comes out. seriously. 


So I've created a time comparison of the 188 days. So here, in all seriousness is how long until the Hunger Games Movie comes out: 



- The time it takes to complete 7 full moons (cycles)
- The time it takes to boil 67,680 medium sized eggs - one at a time
- The time it takes to boil 45,120 jumbo sized eggs - one at a time
- The time it takes to watch Avatar 1671 times 
- The shelf-life of a quiche is 5 days, so the shelf life of 37.6 quiches each brought in after the last one.
- The lifespan of 27 poorly cared for goldfish (one week each), they’re probably mine....
- The lifespan of 9 caterpillars (relatively normal ones) 
- The time it takes to listen to The 4 Chord Song by Axis of Awesome 43,177 times 
- The time it takes to sit through 2,256 Mercy Masses.
- The time it takes to watch ONE OF THE BEST NCIS EPISODES EVER: Truth or Consequences 6,578 times  (I’ve only watched it 4 times) 
- The time it takes to travel to the moon 58 times
- The time it takes to travel from Sydney to Hawaii 429 times 





PS: When I tried to type 'panadol' the spell check said it wasn't a word and suggested 'pandas' instead. Yep, I'm sick and taking pandas


So WOO! Here is a picture:

Hey, people seem to want to know how to use a bookshelf widget...


I'm serious. They do. And so everyone I will put a shelfari bookshelf widget onto my blog (bottom of page) and show you now, step by step, how I did it.

Step one, go to your Shelfari homepage. There is a button on the side that says 'widgets'

Magnified Once

Magnified twice


Magnified Thrice


















Now, one you click 'widgets' you will be directed to this page: 
Don't worry if yours doesn't have all that writing, they're just other widgets I've made for other things.

Click on 'Create New Widget' 
Then you'll get this page:


Then select your website platform: Blogger (me!) Typepad or Wordpress. Then you'll go here:

Follow the prompts on this page until you hit continue. Then you'll be onto 'style your widget' 
After this is done you'll be onto 'Save and Publish'

The page will look like this:
Copy this text code:                                    


Then once you've copied it (just computer copy okay? Don't write it all down) Leave the page.

Go to your blog edit page thingo, (this one is bookstomovieshype.blogspot.com ) and click on design.


 Select one of the 'Add Gadget' Templates, don't worry if its not in the place you want it to be, you can drag it around later, or even before you click 'Add Gadget' (if you want). Anyway this pop-up should pop-up. (How original are internet terms?)
The one you are looking for should come under 'Basics' its the HTML/JavaScript thing.

 When you click on it, this pop-up will appear:
Paste what you copied into the 'content' section, title the shelf however you like.

Hit save, you should return to the design page. Save all design changes you have made to your blog and view it. 


So anyway, check out the blog:  bookstomovies.blogspot.com 
its good.
