Uh, ideas please?

I have officially (maybe) given up with Enchantment. Maybe I'll return to it later. Sorry guys. **Adorable face** So, I thought up a whole new list of ideas. Can you vote on these? I might put up a poll on my blog. I'm writing the description of each book here: Skylights ~  When two rivals say that they would never talk to each other if they were the last people on earth, they wake up with a horrifying realization. They are  the last people on earth. All the others have turned into monsters. Out of Luck ~ Indigo, Duncan and Zoey Brauer are three orphaned triplets fighting in a corrupted universe with their friends Rainn, Dylan and Louis Starjoy. Their questions have answers that might catch them by surprise.  Submerged ~ Vivian was just a normal girl. Despite her parents' stories, she thought she wasn't a mermaid. One day, on her eleventh birthday, when she waded her legs in the pool a little longer than usual, she found out that all bodies...

Left in place ~ anecdote

Hey! I really, really like the theme of this story I'm sharing today. Actually, it's sort of like an anecdote? I wrote this as an idea from Skellig , a novel I'm reading for English this year. Anyway, I also got inspired by the theme of summer transitioning into autumn, even though it's almost winter lol. I've also been working on Enchantment but haven't got a chance to write anything worth sharing, although I did sort of start to plan a few short excerpts. --- Rainn looked at the cottage, which was slowly falling apart. Her footsteps left marks in the dust, and the wind whipped her hair until it looked like a bird's nest. The sun-kissed brick walls of the interior looked matte and crumbly. An old workbench stood at the back, and the floor was littered with countless mementos of time. She stepped through the shards of glass, old wood and artificial jewelry; her gaze darting round, catching sight of a large softboard on one of the walls. It was cover...

What I do randomly during class (hilarious)

I'm bored. This is what I'm going to tell you. Me during my English class: The teacher is reading something on paragraphs and then an example excerpt. In the excerpt, someone said, "It's a very fantastic day!" Mind starts jumping everywhere. He said Very Fantastic Day. Is the teacher a part of V.F.D? OMG WHAT IF SHE WAS A SECRET AGENT AND THE WHOLE A SERIES OF UNFORTUNATE EVENTS THING WAS REAL? OMG...IS SUNNY MARTHA STEWART? Her recipes are very fine delectables...OMG I'M THINKING IN V.F.D. LANGUAGE! I'M A PART OF V.F.D.! OMGGGGGG! Teacher proceeds to point out something called TiP ToP and doesn't notice my inward bomb blast. Me during my math class: Teacher says, "Ron has three custard creams. If he takes away one, and multiplies it by x, what is the answer?" Mind starts whirling. I NEED A CUSTARD CREAM OMG I AM SO HUNGRY WHY DOES THE MISS HAVE TO TORMENT ME LIKE THIS? WHY WHY WHY? THIS IS INWARD TORMENT WHY?? " Uh...twenty-th...

Just A Year - short story

Hey guys! Long time no post, I know :/ I'll be telling you a story today, one that popped in my head in the middle of nowhere. :D I read a quote in A Series Of Unfortunate Events btw: "So he's real? I always thought he was a legendary figure, like unicorns or Giuseppe Verdi." ~Count Olaf. I love that xD This is a series of unfortunate events short fanfic, but even if you haven't read or watched that, it's pretty easy to understand! --- I hesitated as she trudged along the matte sidewalk. Me and my siblings Klaus, Sunny and adopted sister Beatrice had recently discovered that some old friends; Quagmire triplets Isadora, Quigley and Duncan; had shifted close to their house and wanted to surprise them immediately. Sunny had cooked a meal, and Klaus had sent over three books. It had been decided that I was going to take the tray, and the others would come round later. I opened the gate tentatively with one hand, and looked at the house. Its white bricks w...

A Series Of Unfortunate Events - Books Or Netflix? + review + minor spoilers

Hey guys. I have officially found a new favorite book (or a new series). You can probably tell from the title what it is - ASOUE. It started when I was doing a sort of Netflix marathon with my cousin, and we clicked on the series. I loved it. Recently, when I was at my local library, I caught sight of a row of books. My arms couldn't have worked faster. I carried them in a pile to my mum, and announced, "I have found GOLD! PLATINUM! SOMETHING MORE PRECIOUS THAN ANYTHING!" Alright maybe I didn't get hysterical like that. But I carried the lot to my secret shelf, which no one ever looks at. But yo, MY LIFE WAS COMPLETE. I went home and decided that the books were - a complete - treasure! Right now my favorites are The Slippery Slope and The Ersatz Elevator . A few things I liked: - The Quagmire triplets. I almost jumped around the room when...SPOILER ALERT...Q was alive. (I didn't put the full name there, because you'll probably like jumping around the ro...

Autumn Leaves - Poetry

I hear the leaves crunch under my foot, Watching the ones on the trees turn red-gold, Hearing the swallows' cry pierce the silent air, I feel heartless, without a care, The dead flowers crack as easy as snow, I have no idea where to go. The golden aspen and the red maple all seem to be waiting, Waiting for me to stomp them down, The ripened pumpkins slacken their vines. Autumn, a season of surprises, Under my feet, Thriving in great quantities, Uttering just one word, "Merciless", No butterflies seem to be dancing around. Is this what we have come to? Such an empty place, As I pull on my sweater, And think about the human race. Quiet, silent trees shiver, As a cold wind blows through, Evening falls on my solitary figure, And leaves fly away.

Clear Skies - Story excerpt

Hey everyone, how you doing? I'm back with another excerpt that I might post a Part 2 of, but basically, this is sort of like a glimpse! --- I sat on my bed, watching the stars twinkle outside my window. The moon didn’t appear. My head wasn’t really lost in the twinkling lights. It was lost in my memories. Why, oh why did she have to fade away? Why am I left all on my own? Why couldn’t I just press the rewind button and go back to when I was a baby? Why hadn’t I taken the chance to save her? But it was too late. Too late to go back, too late to escape from the trap I had set for myself. Tears streaked my face as I watched the stars disappear, one by one, blinking out. Those are shards of luck disappearing from my life, I thought miserably. I opened my mouth, but no sound came out. A shatter, like fragile glass, started breaking my heart. I pushed the blanket off the bed and collapsed on my pillow, the cinnamon curls falling back and hitting the goose feathers gently. My...

It's easy to be forgotten

It's easy to be forgotten Some people come and some people go Life is moving to and fro Rocking gently like a boat You might just be forgotten Drifting from people's memories It's quite easy to be forgotten There's no way you can stop this happening It's a part of something called life Memories just fade away You can't blame them; they don't have amnesia Pieces of seashell float away on the waves Like broken memories drifting away Forgotten --- XD this so random XD XD idk why i wrote this LOL XD XD XD omg im on a roll now xD xD XDDDDDDD #randomtears #silliness #sentimentalwhenyoufeelloopy SENTIMENTAL WHEN YOURE FEELING LOOPY

Two Different Worlds - short story excerpt

Slam! The car door closed with a rather unneeded bang. A girl with ginger hair, bright blue eyes, and dainty limbs sat with a commanding air in the limousine’s back seat. A chauffeur was seated at the front, his dark sunglasses neatly perched on the bridge of his nose. “Drive, Johns!” the girl ordered venomously. “Yes, mistress.” mumbled the poor chauffeur, and started the engine. What could he do? He was the father of two young girls, and they were a struggling family. He did get paid handsomely, but most of it went into their school fees and into the house. Not much was left. All he knew was that he must earn a living, and earn it well.                                                                               *~*~* When Johns rung the bell of the tiny but well-kept cottage wher...

I ❤️ Art

Image
Today is another post, tomorrow is a wonderful day. Yes, I'm back with art, both traditional and digital. I've got the good ones, have the bad ones, and I'm having a wunnerful  day. Here's my first one. I never finished filling the page with flowers, but I think it's good enough to share. I have no idea if you think I'm lazy or not, though. x-D I have no idea why I wrote that. MY HANDWRITING IS TERRIBLE. I think the flowers are okay though. I bet you're wondering why I am obsessed with flowers at this point. Based on a quote I found somewhere. I don't know who said it though. (Coloring this was so time consuming.) This is one of the best drawings I've made, although some of the lines don't have good proportions. :'( A quick doodle which I decided to color in, and surprisingly the flowers and stems turned out good. The leaves are terrible, though. 😭 Digital! Yippee! I kinda shocked my mum with this, but I just m...

DIY Charm - Tutorial

Image
Here's another DIY tutorial on a DIY charm! These charms are super cute and have so many possibilities! This is a super easy craft which doesn't require any special materials, doesn't require major expertise, and can easily be made by a 9-year-old! This easy simple double-sided heart charm that I made today set me rocking for fifteen minutes. I have it right beside me. (Just one more chicken nugget on the information platter). You will need: 💟A hot glue gun 💟A clear glue stick 💟Any coloring supplies; I used permanent markers but you don't have to 💟Paper (lots) 💟Scissors 💟A pencil/pen       breathe and believe in hot glue magic Okay, so, now what? Fold the paper in half and draw a shape (I chose a heart because it's simple) on it, like this: That's what it should look like. Cut it out. You should have two exact shapes. Now, get coloring! I used blue for one and pink for another, but you can make them both the same and choose ...

So, here are some poems I've wrote in the last few days. I just think that I haven't written enough poems since my comeback (really! one!) and need to write more. Some of these poems are just silly, some others don't make any sense. Some others, though, I am proud of. I think it goes for a reason why my English homework got one hundred percent! Ramadan (Limerick) The neighbors get out their fairy lights, A refreshing soup is served in iftar , Some others bend in prayer to their Merciful Lord, People yell, that it is Ramadan, Which ends with Laylatul Qadr, a very special night. Art (List Poem) I am an artist, My painty fingers crawl over the page, I am an artist, My eyes squint at my pencil drawing, I am an artist, I streak the paint over my canvas, I am an artist, My creative conscience takes flight, I am an artist, My pen, in my perspective, grips time and plays with it, I am an artist, The sights that I see are viewed in a different way to me, I am ...

Taraweeh Goals: A look into the future

So Ramadan is coming up and all, and I just felt that I should give a future ending to the problems I've had in the last two years. The new bits that I am adding and hope that the dilemma will end this way - or at least hope that the not-very-far  future will - the 'Taraweeh Goals' isn't really a aim for the future thing -  are highlighted in red. This is set in the future, probably ten to fifteen years from now. Also, I'm sorry that I haven't posted in the last few weeks, I was a bit busy >~< Anyways... _________________________________________________________________________________  Well, when I was eight, I used to go with my best friend who came with her grandmother to the mosque and I came with my mother. So, a couple other girls that we knew also came to the mosque and the children tended to sit at the back while the women prayed in the front rows. We barely ever talked, even if we did it was, 'Can you get me a tissue?' or, 'Can ...

Wonder Park: Movie Review

Image
Hi and I'm back, yes I'm back... Today I'm going to do a movie review on Wonder Park. It got released recently, and I watched it. It is so cool.     Title: Wonder Park  My review:  Wow. I mean just wow. This movie is 90 minutes long, and in that amount of time they packed so much 'wonder' in it. So...awesome. I can't believe how great this was, utterly great. An utterly creative girl named June creates an amusment park from her own imagination and it comes real. Real. I'd give this movie ten out of ten. I love it!                                                                                                     

Arty Crafty Projects

I’ve been making a lot of art projects recently and I have been going crazy with all of the art. Really, it’s hard but it pays out at the end. First is a wooden craft stick box that I made. How could you not love this. It’s beautiful, compact and I think it was quite easy to make. I just used UHU glue, bright poster paints and of course, craft sticks. I really enjoyed painting this because I mixed a lot of colors to make this beauty. This is a seashell that I made using a reference. It’s simple and its just a sketch. It was a bit challenging but I managed it in the end.  Here is another pencil sketch. This one is a monarch butterfly 🦋 that I made using a reference, again. It took some time but I really like the effect in the end!   I made this cupcake using a reference for the millionth time. It was hard to draw the frosting and that is probably why it looks a bit wobbly. But I managed to draw the wrapper and the lines on it. I think I’ll draw it digitally again sometime. Thi...

Hearts of Enchantment: Part 1

Okay, here is a loooong story I've been working on for days! I will post it in parts, so you've got to wait. So here you go................... So it says, the real way for you to become special is finding who you are. The PowerGirls recommend just that. There are five of these girls and each has a talent. Meet Wind, who has a talent for Air. Meet Marina, who has a talent for Water. Meet Flame, who has a talent for Fire. Meet Moss, who has a talent for Earth. Meet Doe, who has a talent for Animals. Each of the PowerGirls have a special heart jewel that lets them do their job. One day, Doe was playing with her pet bunnies when her mother called her for lunch. “Coming, Mom!” she replied as she locked the rabbits into the hutch. She raced into the house. Lunch was chicken salad on toast. “Mum, can I call Wind, Marina, Flame and Moss?” she questioned. “I could never see around those names, Doe,” her mother said. “By the way, you have to do all the laundry later, and I w...

My Self-Portrait!

Image
I drew A self-portrait of myself on Paint. Here it is!  This is SO cool. It looks just like me in a cartoonish way. The clothing is a shirt with a short skirt and pants underneath. I really do have bob-cut hair but I don't usually tie it with ribbons. Super cool, eh? If you look closely, very closely, by clicking on the pic to see it in full-screen mode, you will see I used the pencil for the eyelashes. Yay!

Art for Kids Hub!

Image
I am going to be reviewing the channel named "Art for Kids Hub'. Here, a dad draws, paints, sculpts, and does origami with... his children! Their names are: Jack (nicknamed Chuckers) who is age 11, Hadley (nicknamed Hads) who is age 8, Austin (nicknamed Austa-wasta-mc-pasta) who is age 6. They also have a toddler named Olivia but she's only a year old. I have included a playlist of some videos I think you'll like. If you like these, be sure to check out the channel for more amazing stuff! Anyways, the reason why I like this channel is because if I am drawing kind of bad, the younger children do kind of good. And I say to myself, "I can do just as good as them!'. And it gives me strength. I like using this channel because it teaches art very good. I hope you will use it too!
