Life of a Random

The image below was placed there because I like it. It's pretty. Also, the quote is a necessity, I think, in any relationship. source @freegreatimages.com I'm so sorry that I have been very absent from the blog, but college is proving to be very challenging. I've got something due every week it feels like and when I have free time I'd usually rather spend it wasting my time listening to kpop or watching funny vlogs. Which, of course, is very un-bloggerly of me but...eh, what can you do. But this week I have come with a Sunday Swoons post! Sadly, Briana can't join in since she has no wi-fi. I think we need to send her kind thoughts and tons of virtual gifts to make up for that, don't you? No wi-fi. *shudders* Therefore, I shall be surging forward to host Sunday Swoons today. If you'd link up, it would make me and Briana very happy! (Or at least B will be when she finds out ;)) (You can find a more complete set of rules here .) Our topic...

(More detailed rules can be found here .) This Week's Topic: Romantic Writings | Talk about couples that you have created in your books, stories, and worlds. That's basically the only requirement so have fun with it. :) Romance in My Writing I have never written a complete book, and honestly, I haven't gone too far in writing relationships yet either. So this will just be me rambling about the kinds of couples I tend to write and maybe snippets of what I have written for my couples.  source @ Pinterest I'm a big fan of "one and only" couples so that's usually what I write. I don't want to write stories about people who are only together for a short period of time. I want people to believe in true love and loyalty (since that's such a hard concept to grasp in all these current novels) and that it lasts . Not all guys are players, not all girls are flirts.  source @ Pinterest Before anything else, I want my couples to b...

Heyyy. This is a double post since Briana was awesome and was chill with me taking a weekend off because of me being overwhelmed with school (I'm a freshmen in college if you didn't know). Originally, I was just going to skip last week's topic. However  I thought about it and decided that I would have time to write a little bit about it and  today's topic. It's late, but I say better late than never. Last week's topic was Couples on Covers . Briana and I thought this would be a good topic because there is no arguing that there is tons  of disagreement over couple-y covers, on whether we like them or not, or if we like one type over another. It's such a relevant topic. So have fun with it! I can't wait to see what you do with the topic. :) For a specific list of rules, you can visit my Sunday Swoons page. But the basics are-- please give credit to me for the link-up picture, link back to us either through me or Briana, and have fun. :) Also...

Sunday  Swoons  is a weekly  feature  hosted by Briana  @Reader, Writer, Critic  and myself where we discuss all things romantical in fiction whether it's our favorite couples or quirkiest pick-up lines. We've both been busy which explains the lateness of this post. Oops. I hope you like reading our posts. Briana was the mastermind behind this topic :) Link up and have fun with us!

Sunday Swoons  is a weekly  feature  hosted by Briana  @Reader, Writer, Critic  and myself where we discuss all things romantical in fiction whether it's our favorite couples or quirkiest pick-up lines. This week's topic is brain child of both Briana and I. I really think it has room for a lot of different topics and I can't wait to see what you come up with. :) As always, don't forget to check out Briana's post.  Rules: 1.  You're welcome (and, in fact, encouraged ;)) to use my/our button in your post, just please cite me as the source. 2.  You can post in whatever style you would like:  list, discussion,  etc. as long as what you are talking about goes with the topic for the week. 3.  You either must follow the topic given OR you can do a post on the opposite of the topic we give.

My first, may I add, Sunday Swoons as co-hoster of...well...Sunday Swoons. It feels awesome. :D It has been great working with Briana! She's fun and SO nice, so you should totally go check out her blog . Like right now. Shoo. I think you'll like this post as I happen to know for a fact that many of you are fans of chocolate. I was right, wasn't I? This week's theme: If Couples Were Food... (Pick any kind of food to compare fictional couples to.) The rules are simple. 1. You're welcome (and encouraged) to use the Sunday Swoons button, but remember to cite me as the source. 2.

Your posts don't have to have anything to do with books you're reading right now, they can be past reads as well. (It's nice if you put a link to the Goodreads page of the book or some o...
