Books that I read, Thoughts that I think

Read the Printed Word!

Pictures probably aren't mine, writing is unless stated

In a good bookroom you feel in some mysterious way that you are absorbing the wisdom contained in all the books through your skin, without even opening them.

Poos.

So I planned an awesome date with my boyfriend to our favourite cinema to see the kind of artsy movies that he likes.

I booked my tickets and was so impressed with myself until today I got an email saying that the movies didn’t pass the NZ censor” which means they are replacing the cool artsy movies with documentaries. Not that I have anything against documentaries. Just that they aren’t artsy movies that my boyfriend likes and would be so stoked that I had booked us tickets to them.

#BUT THE MELONS

So while watching this I was lying on my back on the couch and laughing my ass off. My family was very concerned.

 Wow I actually cried at work reading this, trying not to laugh. All the Melon lines, and Stoned. Oh gosh. LOL

manalsmusings asked: Asalamu Alaikum/Peace be upon you,

I'm trying to get to know all the cool people here on tumblr, so tell me about yourself, your life story,

Me: I'm Manal, I love to read and write, I follow the news even if it sickens me all of the time. I want to be a journalist when I'm older so I can travel the world, learn more languages, and meet people whose stories deserve to be heard.

Thanks,
Manal :)

Hi Manal

Very cool, I admire people who want to learn more, I think it’s important to not live in our own little worlds and ignore what’s happening around us. My dream is to be a published author, but with a full time job as a secretary it’s hard to find time. I also have a passion for theatre, particularly being on stage myself. I’m rehearsing for a variety show at the moment. I would also love to write for the stage or for film, I actually did a course in film making when I left school which made me realise I hate editing but I can write a pretty kick ass script. Anyways, thanks for asking, sorry it was such a long answer!!

Time

Time to focus on what is important. Time to get started. I love to write, I do. I just don’t let myself sit in front of a computer and type because I get lazy. In my dreams at night stories form in my head, sometimes waking me up wondering what book I was reading. Even my sub conscious is telling me to get off my ass and follow my dreams.

Wow. All my posts lately have been about writers block. Time to actually write.
