Where's Finnick? Odair he is.
iwillsurvivefirst asked: Me encanta tu blog, me siento completamente identificada con el, gracias por hacerlo, has capturado la esencia de un amante de los libros. I love it! :) (Sorry but I don't speak English very well)
When F. Scott Fitzgerald was 6 years old he had a birthday party to which nobody came. He waited on the porch all afternoon in his freshly pressed suit but nobody showed, so at last he went inside and ate his entire birthday cake, including several candles.

writing challenge submission
A thousand little stars are dancing above me. For a second I feel like I can breathe, but not too hard because everything is still so fragile. The more I think about breathing though, the more I realize that I can’t do it. I want to relax but I can’t. A soft breeze wraps around me and I’m starting to maybe think that maybe it is okay not to be perfect. Maybe perfect is something that isn’t...
get-scribbling asked: Hello! First of all, your blog is superb! Love it. Secondly, I have a fairly new writing blog and could really use followers. Encouraging more people to write is my prior goal and I'd love to see people doing just that. If you'd be ever so kind and promote me? Sorry for being a burden!

He was broken she was unknown . His walls were so high he couldn’t even get over them himself. She could have anything. Turned heads from the front to across a room. He didnt intend on what he was starting to feel . Didn’t want the burden but it grew on him. He couldn’t figure it out , everything that could have happened didn’t like it wasn’t meant. A silence now lays upon and minds wander. A...

You know, there are times when I stop and think; We as a people are pretty fucking stupid. And I mean, it’s undeniably true. We, as a human race, as a group of people in a school, as a mob of people in cities, as a flock of insignificant specks on a map, are stupid. Yes, even you. And...

They are good! :)
But I’m stuck on Collins’ first series, The Overlander series. My heart forever belongs to those characters <3 I have yet to meet anyone who has read the overlander series and it breaks my heart.
2 B R 0 2 B was such a great concept, I just wish it was longer. It’s only about 16 pages :(

The rushing stream was us. What we had is the water now disappeared and replaced. But the shape of the river is still there, slowly eroded and changed by what flows through it. The past has changed this river. We are no more but we left our impact; written in the shore; sculpted in the land of the world. This is what we had, now gone.
I cannot deny the present’s right to sculpt rivers anew simply...

Broken
This is insanity. It must be. It’s the feeling of being completely detached from your own body and mind. All I can see are flashbacks—clips of mistakes, hate, and passion that flicker through my brain like a projection for which I am merely the audience to.
Suddenly, it stops. Should I clap? No, I should pray. Pray for the mercy and forgiveness.
Fuck, I’m a disaster.
The images begin again....

I'm going to start up the Writing Challenge again...
What is this Writing Challenge I speak of?
I will post a song (I post instrumental music) for you to listen to.
I want you, as a writer, to imagine what is going on in this song. Submit it to my blog for me and other writers to read :)
Or maybe you can be inspired by the song and write a story unrelated to the beats in the music. Still, I would love it to be submitted.
I love reading work from...
dammitjulie asked: I spent majority of it cramming for two midterms. :/
lunamagnolia asked: Read a David Levithan book - fitting, since almost all of his books started out as short stories he wrote for his friends on Valentines day. (Not that I planned this, I didn't even realise until today :P) Check him out, he is one of my favourite authors.
booksquotesandreviews asked: Love in the time of cholera and Saving Francesca was how I completely forgot valentines day was actually happening. :D (No regrets.)
ladytheadoraofthelightseekers asked: My Vday was good! Not normal good, but I spent the day with my dog. I took him for a walk, we went to the park, I bought him a bone. So it was nice:)
Anonymous asked: i suppose you wouldnt want to hear my story then, since i'm a girl, and the person who was my valentine was also a girl. nice.
thegirlandherbooks asked: I don't know about your Valentine's Day, but I spent mine with my serious boyfriend, also known as Ulysses. We hung out so much I even did a paper on him. How was your Valentine's? :)
Hey guys! :) How was your Valentines Day?
Was it shmoozy and romantic?
Did he show up with roses and chocolate or was it something different?
Maybe you’re a guy! What did you do?
Or was it a complete flop?
Tell me about it :)

Reunion
I am who I am, and we’re all connected the same,
so who I am is who you are, love is our soul’s name.
I feel everything, for all is within me,
allowing love to flow, we were born free.
Together we unite, become who we always were,
reach a higher consciousness, our soul is pure.
As we replace fear with courage, we transmit light,
walking forward together, all souls reunite.

Anonymous asked: I'd like to be your valentine so I could slip you a love letter in between the pages of a book I'd loan you. :)
I wished I lived in the novels I read.
