Topic of the day. Showing 1,101-1,150 of 1,263

My favorite dystopian authors- inspired ideas that lead to ideas that lead to even more ideas for the dystopian novel I'm working on.

Old poets- old poets inspore new poetry, I use some of their rhyme schemes or even try to see if I can use their topics to make my own poetry.

Songs- When I hear a really good song with a creative melody or really nice lyrics, I try to write my next poem ti the tune of that song. The reader would have no idea it was writteb to the tune of a song, but it would still have sound rhythm.

My own personality- very hard to completely explain some parts of me, so I sometimes hide certain aspects of myself in a long metaphor in the form of a poem.

And those are pretty much some things that help me while writing :-D

Most of the time I never know what I'm writing until I have it down.

But then sometimes I'll be inspired by my own life story. I will think of something that particularly happened to me of a deep feeling I've possessed at some point and alter it into something more sci-fi or something like that.

Also, other books inspire me. Not the story but the way it's written. Maybe a character. Makes sense?

But most of the times my imagination gets the best of me! :D

I just start listening to music, or read fanfics, or get into my imaginary worlds, most of the time. It helps distract me from my problems sometimes. sometimes it does sometimes it doesn't.

I deal with stress by going bannaners for a couple hours without talking or thinking of anything else until I take life with my own two sweaty hands and manually FORCE it into the shape I want using pure willpower! >:)

[SmilingDork]

Books mostly. Plus my life too.

[Saarah]

so, should I tell skye it's her turn or should raven go?

[SmilingDork]

SKYE hasn't been on lately so IDK if she will reply. I guess let her know and if she doesn't reply then let's let Ravanna do it.

[Saarah]

ok then

[Hads]

Okay, if I ever attempt to write a story it's because my family inspires me. We all just do such stupid and funny things and I always think how great it would be in a book.

[Hads]

I think miss Ravanna should go.

[SmilingDork]

Agreed.

[Saarah]

yeah I think so too

[Ravanna Dee, Top Mod]

Okay so the TOTD is... Drum roll, please......What was your favorite birthday party? How old where you? what did you do? What is your most memorable part of it? Etcetera...

[Hads]

I've never had a birthday party. One time we went to a restaurant around the time of my birthday! It wasn't exactly for my birthday, but it was still fun! It was actually last October. I turned 15 :P.

[Saarah]

I don't really like party's so we never had them for my b-day but my fav birthday was this year :) I got sooo many presents and a huuuuge cake and everything :) which was awesome.

[SmilingDork]

I never had a birthday party until my sixteenth one. It was AWESOME!!! My friends and I had and awesome time and we ate cake, tacos, candy from a pinata, and snores. We stayed up till like six and we had a fire and truth or dare. We gossiped a lot and told stories. That was mostly it. I didn't get whole lot of presents but I was fine with that. I got the Splintered Trilogy from my parents and a lava lamp, some cups from a friend (Since then I have used no other cup but these) I got a to go cup full of candy from another friend, a makeup Gift Card from another, twenty dollars from another, and one forgot to give it to me and still keeps meaning to but forgets same with my Christmas present from the same friend. (I think it is hilariously funny!!! )

That was my best birthday party.

[SmilingDork]

OH! And I had a Alice In Wonderland cake.

[Hads]

Hahaha your friend sounds adorable :P XD.

[SmilingDork]

They all are.

[Hads]

XD

[Gia]

My best day I remember is when I turned 12. I jad my cousins over the day before my b'day. Coincidence. So anyway at night they kept whispering and all. I grew skeptical. I thought maybe they were blowing up balloons or whatever but when I checked the room it was all empty and they feigned so nonchalance. I felt stupid :P so anyway i went to sleep. At 12:00 my one cousin woke me up and took me to one room. I was so zombie-like. The room was dark. I entered. Sudden light. Hootings then. B'day song. It was great. Kinda unexpected. I cut a small cake, and ate extra bakery stuff with cousins <3 plus pics pics! It was the best! :D then on bday evening I again cut a cake with rest of my fam and got gifts <3 :')

[SmilingDork]

That is Awesome Gia! XD

[Gia]

Hahaha thnx :D

[Hads]

Smiley,
Madison
Hadiyah,
Safia,
Saarah,
Gia,
Shine,
Skye,
Ravanna

[Saarah]

no, as the topic of the day order :) do you know how this discussion works?

[Saarah]

so, basically it goes in the order of the list, and when it's your turn, you post a topic to get to know everyone better. for example, say it's my turn, and I post...your scariest nightmare. then everyone will post their scariest nightmare. if I posted, what's your favourite colour, everyone would answer. I don't know if it makes sense, but if you just look back a little, then you'll probably get it :)

[Gia]

Oh, and it totally depends on u if u want to answer or not. Some people may not be comfortable in ans some Qs so yeah upto u :)

[Saarah]

yeah :)

[SmilingDork]

Sorry guys. Long day of theater and track. My topic is....... Ummmmm....... I had a really good one but forgot it so here is the alternative......... What two songs best represent you life the best?

[SmilingDork]

Same

[Ravanna Dee, Top Mod]

Umm....Nothing like you; by Dan and Shay.
And...Hmm...Human, by Christina Perri.

[Gia]

Oh I love Human by Christina Perri <3

Um..there's no particular song as such.....maybe it's not comin in my mind...
I'd go with Wings and Salute by Little Mix and Gift of a friend by Demi Lovato

[Saarah]

I have no song that represents my life :)

[SmilingDork]

for me I would say Brave By Sara Brasilles and Soldiers by Otherwise. There are more but I said two.

[Ravanna Dee, Top Mod]

Oh, I'll have to check some of those out! I'm always looking for new songs to try!

I have no idea actually. I listen to music all the time, If I'm not watching anime or when I'm at school. But I've never actually found any songs that best represents my life.

[Ravanna Dee, Top Mod]

That's fine. What songs do you like then?

[kavi ~he-him~]

Ravanna wrote: "That's fine. What songs do you like then?"

I like a lot of songs, but I don't have a fav one. Too many to choose from.

[[deleted user]]

I like Owl City songs :)
I listen to the old ones a lot
The lyrics are so rich and beautiful ♡

[Ravanna Dee, Top Mod]

I'll have to check them out.
Today is Madison's day for the TOTD!!!!!

Yay!!!!! I love new comers! XD

[[deleted user]]

While waiting for Madison, the song that fits me is "What Makes You Beautiful" by 1 D. My best friends recommend me this song because I used to judge myself. So this song helped me on not to judge myself.

[Ravanna Dee, Top Mod]

Aww..That's a beautiful choice. I'm glad your friend recommended it to you. You're too great of a person. Your inside beauty shine's out so bright it's blinding! God bless you Shine!
