Blogging for Fun

At the moment I am reading one of my best friends stories. It is quite amazing! I will enclose her blog info, you should defiantly read her stuff. And it makes me realize you can really tell who a person is by the way she writes her stories...weird I know.

Also I am editing my own work, it is relaxing and rather boring (Do you like the boring color I chose?). I hate going over stuff I have already written, it seems so (red)undant. But I know, in the long run, it will help. Especially if I want to achieve my goal.

I am almost done with this story. Then I can begin upon the sequel! I am so excited to begin! I know that the third one will be my favorite to write, I kind of want to begin on it now- But I must go in order.

Also before I leave you all for the night, I would like to thank Miss Sawyer Fuller. She helped me with this amazing new way of blogging.


I will be posting more soon! x

The Perilous Undertakings of Cleaning, Part 1

Before I begin this random, pointless blog about cleaning, I feel like you all should know that the title was a bit too dramatic for the passage before you. But I like the way it sounds, so we are leaving the title as is. Plus knowing my history, there will probably be more posts on this topic...
This weekend I started the unpleasant (and much put off) task of cleaning/re-organizing my room. On Saturday I cleaned and swept my floors, hung up all my clothes and cleaned out my dresser (I have been wanting to give up that space-hog for a while now). It has been a lot of work but there is still so much left to do; Clean out my desk, get rid of clothes, organize my bookshelves, and go through bags of stuff I have had hoarded away.
Today my task consists of cleaning out my desk and hopefully move onto my bookshelves (to me, my bookshelf is like what a trophy case means to an Olympic champion). I have so much work to do. Maybe if I am lucky I will have time to make my bed for once.
So much to do and I must be finished by Thursday...Wish me luck!
P.S. I plan on posting a blog about my bookshelf, also many more on writing/books.

The Hollywood Bowl

Last night I attended the Hollywood bowl with my friends and our younger siblings. The theme was Loony Tunes Symphonies. As you might have already guessed, it was a show for little kids. The Hollywood Bowl wants to bring the arts back and in order to do so they must reach out to all ages, and last nights show did. Playing upon big screens were Loony Tune cartoons. While the orchestra played the back round music or anything that needed to played for the episode.
As we entered the Hollywood Bowl I saw a sign about the history of the place. On it was a picture of two ladies coming to watch a show. The picture was probably taken in the late 1800's, early 1900's and it made me think, this was probably the place where the rich went to see opera's and hear beautiful music. It made me ask myself where are the arts are going now. I mean what the movie theaters are now is what plays were in the forties (except more extravagant and exciting).
The show, all and all was marvelous. The second the music started you felt like you were back in 30's/40's about to watch a new episode that stared your favorite bunny. I just wish that the twenty-first century was like the thirties, with the same simplicity and elegance that it had back then.

Time

Time controls the world.
One can not succeed in life with out it. In order to become something you must be at the right place, at the right time. Talent is not needed if time is your friend, but a fickle friend it is... After all it has its limits, while talent has none at all. Yet there are still talented strangers- undiscovered by the world because of their bad timing.
Now I am not saying that I am talented or better then others. All I am doing is wishing that time will be my friend and help me complete the task at hand. The task: to become a published author. So time if you will have me and talent if you will bless my thoughts with an abundance of stories, I would be extremely grateful.
