  5. Guys, I need books to read. I'm specifically looking for hard sci-fi space opera type stuff. 

    But I'll take anything. Just put the sci-fi stuff at the top.

  7. Hey y'all! Random stuff cuz why not

    I sang backup vocals for the Easter Sunday service this morning - and I didn't get nervous! Like, at all! So that was awesome :D 

    Finished book two of the Wheel of Time! The Great Hunt was SO GOOOD but not as good as The Eye of the World... but I've just started The Dragon Reborn, so we'll see what happens :P Also panicked because I realised the books I borrowed aren't gonna last the two weeks of holidays so... haaaaaa

    Vitamin Sea by Owl City makes me so happy! Here it is:

    (Owl City is my therapy I LOVE his music)

    Happy Easter, everybody! He is Risen!

  8. It's my Shardiversary!! 2 years on the shard! I'm kinda busy today so I'm not going to do a big thing but you are all amazing people! You're the best! You got this! Have a great day :)

  9. Raise your hand if you’re tired! *raises hand* I’m probably gonna go to bed early.

  10. Welp, it finally happened, folks!

    I've reached 1,000 posts! Yayyyy

    In celebration, I have released the two prologues of a book I'm writing! Just be warned, they're not as... cheerful as my other stories :/

    Here's the link to the page, and sit back (or forward) and enjoy!

    You guys are so wonderful, and I just want to thank y'all for being so supportive of my writing and art! It has been so inspiring and really, really means a lot to me. This community is such an amazing place, and every day I am thankful for your cheerful posts and conversations - it's helped so, so much!

    Have a wonderful holiday, folks! Happy Easter and a blessed week to you all!

  11. Well. I stayed up all night :P. 

    It is now 7:00 in the morning and I have to go to school in a little bit. 

    Don't worry though, I had a good reason! I was working on an essay that was due yesterday, but am only halfway done with. I was able to get about 400 words written out of the 1,800 minimum requirement so that's good. I could have done more, but my brain decided that that was boring so I started writing a short story. 

    I think it's funny how people say that if you're sleep deprived you'll be depressed, but I'm going on 20-ish hours with no sleep and I feel way less depressed than usual!

    Anyway, my rant about how incredibly unhealthy my sleep schedule is is now over. 

    I kinda wanna see if I can go a full 48 hours

  12. two SU's in one day, that's a first. 

    Okay, so I was wondering if any of y'all have heard of an auditory illusion called Shepard tones. They are an interesting phenomenon where there is a series of notes that seem to be infinitely ascending or descending. It can apparently drive people insane and can actually cause high anxiety levels and nausea and other things similar to those. I went down about an hour long rabbit hole about them, and they are fascinating.

    Here's a link if you want to see for yourselves. This is really random, but I think you guys should check it out

  19. Ah 

    Woe is me 

    I thought i just didnt know what to read 

    But i think i have reached that most dreaded of all problems 

    the reading slump  

    im not going to try to force myself to read 

    Reading is an activity not a chore, so im not even going to beat myself up about it. (Is it just me or do all readers do this? That reading is such a pivotal part of your personality, when you dont feel lile reading it feels bad?) 

    Right now i just wanna binge watch The Haunting of Bly Manor and read Tomarry fanfiction and thats A-okay

  20. So, I, um, may have spent the entire day reading all of Secret Project 2 between General Conference sessions while simultaneously neglecting a chemistry test review and a US history essay and ACT prep.

    It was a good book, though.

  21. I'm leaving for London in an hour! Never been abroad (aside from a brief stint in Canada :P) so I'm really excited!

    See y'all in about a week!

  22. GUYS

    guysguysguysguysguysguysguysguys

    GUESS WHAT??

    It finally happened: I HAVE BORROWED THE EYE OF THE WORLD!!

    I'm FINALLY going to start reading the Wheel of Time AHHHH

    *excited screaming*

    I have literally waited a decade for this moment

    Finally, after all these years, I shall begin the longest fantasy series I will ever read. 

    I've literally been giggling like a child all morning 'cause I'm so excited what

    I've read the prologue and WOW that sets a fantastic precedent *excitement*

    I am not going to sleep for the next week! Yay!!!

    (Gonna read this in math lol)

    Alright humans! Have a wonderful day/night/whatever time!

  23. So there's this masquerade church dance that's coming up, and I'm considering just going in full plague doctor gear.  I don't think my mom will let me, but it's fun to dream, right? I can just imagine it now, walking on to the dance floor, dragging a body behind me, screaming 'the plague is coming, the plague is coming!'. All the people, running in terror as I swish my floor length leather skirt. Laughing manically as I throw leeches at people. Sighhh...

    (Seriously though, google plague doctor outfits. They're so cool.)
