Writer's Block: Birthday Shout-out
[info]shira_strike

Happy birthday, J.K. Rowling! Which of her seven Harry Potter novels do you think is the most satisfying read?

I shall have to say the third book, Harry Potter and the Prisioner of Azcaban is the one I've liked the most. It was so funny! Besides we get to learn so many things about Harry's parents and his friends. I mean, three key characters are introduced to the series: Sirius Black, Remus Lupin and Peter Pettigrew.

Sirius Black: I sort of have  love-hate relationship with him. He is my favourite character's worst enemy (Severus Snape) and I really think that he is a complete idiot for going to save Harry at the end of the fifth book (which by the way it's the worst one yet). Yes , heis his godson and the lot but didn't he realise what he MEANT to the boy? Because here there is an orphan whose only family treated him like crap and who comes to this school who everybody worshipped him and had the higgest expectations of him and that even though he loved the wizarding world we have to admit: those guys only cared for Harry when he was the saviour and when the paper said the wasn't mad. But then comes this man who stayed 12 years in Azcaban and when he finally got his freedom he goes to the place where he had more chances of getting caught that anywhere else (except maybe the Ministry of Magic, but just maybe) just to protect a kid who he hasn't seen in years. No one had done that for him. Not because he was rich and famous and because he was the boy-who-lived-so-he-has-to-be-protected-at-all-times. And then, apart from all that he protects them facing him by himself a werewolf. Griffindor indeed. So my conclusion? He was the best motivation for Harry to fight in the war.

Now, Remus Lupin. Aw, there's a character you just have to love. He is great! Really humble and probably the best DADA teacher ever, he is rather complex but in a good way. I could picture him in a super granny-who-bakes-cookies-but-also-kicks-bag-theives-behinds. well... maybe not baking cookies but something along the lines.

And Peter Pettigrew, the one everybody can easily hate. He makes a good pathetic minion, although he does have a rather important role later on. I loved it when Snape kept ordering him around in book 6, it was hilarious.

So, there there is, my writer's block dilema and answer... fell free to coment or debate!


Ode to a day's end
[info]shira_strike
I see you from far
you look so warm, so open
so friendly
Are you inviting me in?

Your manner is so inviting,
it draws me in
I feel like a prey falling into a trap
and you my clever predator.

My senses are failing,
my energy,
dropping
I'm caught in your atractive way.

Oh sleepy night
oh tiring temptation
bring me in,
hypnotising evil.

But every rose has it's thorns
and I know your cruel plan
you wish to capture me
to keep me hostage.

I won't fall though
I will not go to sleep
no matter how cozy and warm and comfortable
I will not go to bed.

Yes, you bed
don't look so inocent
I know you are not
don't be wasting my time.

Suddenly, I feel drowsy
a magic's been placed on me
my eyes lids are heavy
my words blurry.

Maybe being a hostage in a bed isn't that bad after all.

Here it goes...

Well hi, this is my first ever post in my blog. Normally I would feel over excited and hyper about it but it sort of got me in the wrong mood. you see, my mood swings back and forth so many times it's really hard to schedule something and stick with one mood. great, I've said mood three times in a row, talk about vocabulary. Great, that's four times.

Wow, so this was it. I'm opening my mind to strangers all around the net. As I'm writing this I wonder, would anyone actually read this? Would someone be interested in reading the thoughts of someone like me? you see, it was the wonder that drives me to write this, because in my gloomy moments I just write the first sets of words in any piece of paper, or sometimes just make believe I write on my leg.

Now that I think about it I write because it clears my mind off things by having to concentrate on what I'm going to say next. It's much easier that speaking... at least if you make a mistake you can erase it and everything can be saved for future reference, unlike speaking, were sometimes an "I`m sorry, I didn't mean to say it like that" cannot ease the harm your words made and although you may have forgotten what you said there's always someone who remebers your words to the detail and can use it against you. Crappy, isn't it?

This is not helping. You know, I have a huge problem when trying to concentrate on things. I just can't! My atention span is worst than that of a fly.

Say, this is a perfect example... Just now, as I was writing this very entry I suddenly felt the need to look around my room. By doing that I completely forgot that I was writing but remembered that I was watching Big Bang Theory online and continued to watch it and it was only when the episode finished that I remebered once again that I was pouring my heart out on my very own first entry ever in a website, which is supposed to be a very exciting thing to do (at least for me in normal mood it would be)

I think I made my point.

So there it is... my thoughts in this moment. Is there anyone who would do me the favor of helping me out in my concentration problem? That's asking too much, isn't it? Well, to you my friend who took the trouble of reading all of this horse poop I just wrote thanks for reading.
