My answers to bookerror 's questions:
1. What is your most favorite book ever?
Weird, I already answered this question haha. The Five People You Meet in Heaven by Mitch Albom
2. Who is your favorite writer/artist on deviantart?I'm looking for more people to follow hehe

I'm pretty sure I went overboard (sorry not sorry)
3. You get to bring one pokemon into the real world, who and why?
I'm not a pokemon kid so apologies. Ponyta because I used to be obsessed with horses.
4. You're in a zombie apocalypse, what is your main weapon?
You didn't specify if non real world weapons didn't count so I'm going with Tsubaki from Soul Eater. She has more than one weapon form.
5. What superpower you absolutely love to have?
Transformation. Meaning I could be anything from a bird to....a tree?
6. What phobia do you have?
I fear heights (but I kinda love the adrenaline rush at the same time?) also holes
7. You get to have a dinner with your choice of 5 people (fictional, real, dead, alive, etc...) who and why?
Hannibal (the Anthony Hopkins version) He would probably scare the bejeezus about of me but who cares.
Sherlock Holmes. He might be rude but I hope he would find Hannibal fascinating.
Stephen Hawking. I would probably learn something new at the very least.
Agatha Christie. Mystery books are my favorite, and maybe she could tell me a story.
Marzia Bisognin/cutiepiemarzia because I love her fashion and she loves horror too. (plus she might bring pewdiepie along heh)
8. Favorite Disney character?
Jim Hawkins from Treasure Planet because who doesn't want to be a rebel like him. He's way too cool a kid.
9. Free 1 week trip to anywhere in the world, where would you go?
New Zealand because of LOTR and the scenery is beautiful.
10. What is your favorite time period and why?
Roaring 20s because of the glitz, the glamour, the Lost Generation, Jazz, and Prohibition era. I'd probably be killed but at least I'd have fun first.
11. If you could become another person, who would you be and why?
I'd be Ed Sheeran because he seems to have a genuinely good time wherever he goes. Plus I'd have amazeball guitar skills and be able to harmonize.
12. What's the funniest thing that happened to you as a kid?
This is more embarrassing but I farted in second grade during someone's show and tell presentation. I forgot if I said excuse me or not. Everyone was looking at me...and I think I had this awkward stare moment with the teacher.
13. Share the best piece of wisdom/advice that anyone has ever given you.
This one is super hard..urghhhh.
"Make use of the fact that you don't doubt yourself too much right now. As we get older, we get more realistic and that includes about our own abilities or lack thereof. That realism does us no favors. Fear protects us in many ways, but what has served me is diving into my own obliviousness. Being more confident than I should be ... trying things that you never would have tried. Your inexperience is an asset in that it will make you think in original, unconventional ways. Accept your lack of knowledge and use it as your asset." - Natalie Portman (from her Harvard Commencement speech)

...unintended hiatus
so I have not submitted anything in basically forever. Partly its because I've just been super duper lazy and junior year is almost coming to a close, so I've been pretty busy. I was planning on writing a one shot to commemorate my 1,000 page views, but unfortunately that hasn't happened yet (but I still plan on doing so). I really don't know when I'm going to submit anything yet, it could be the later part of next month or maybe summer. I don't intend on being dead on this account.
I have planned on starting a series but it ran out of steam after a couple chapters. I may go back to it, but I'll probably just be writing one shots of the show
A Musing About Writing
Why is it so hard to write about happiness?
Is it generic?
No
Is it not as interesting?
That depends
There are many different types of happiness
as there are different types of sadness.
Yet the sad stories are what I remember.
Life is full of good times and bad times,
it goes for endings too.
So why is it so difficult?
I say sad endings are more real, and more relateable.
But is that true?
Not neccessarily
I say it is hard for me
because I spend more time looking down than looking up.
And I love the bittersweet
So I end with this new revelation:
The stories I cherish the most are not about the endings.
They are about the
Ramblings...
I have always been worried that I will never find the one thing or things I am good at. Sometimes you need other people's advice or opinion or whatnot to help you find it. I just want to be comforted that there's something out there for me... an assurance that I will find it in the future. Of course only time will tell, but I just want to know now.
I've always had long running fanfics in my head... but I never write them down because writing isn't really a strong point of mine. I know practice makes perfect, but I think that is one road I am not ready (or I just think i'm not) for. I always imagine myself as something better than myself
