So I've always wanted to actually write a full book from start to end but I can never stay motivated enough to actually do that. I'm great at starting a story and introducing all the elements but I can never really get through the middle and the plot...its kindof depressing. One thing I love to do is make up characters. I like the idea of defining a person and making a person unique and come alive...even though they are just something that lives in my imagination.
Here are some descriptions of some of the people I know. See if you can guess which one is you. Too bad there are only about 2 of you that read this! Oh well..
-She has always seemed a little introverted. Careful to never reach out too far or overstep her bounds. Everything she does is so calm and serene, but you know somewhere inside her there is something big growing just waiting to break free. There is a beauty inside of her that few others still have. She has a tendency to reserver herself and her trust for those that have clearly proved themselves worthy of it.
-She always has big things on her mind, and you know she will end up accomplishing whatever she truly wants. Her beauty is raw, plain and undeniable. She has a love for many things and her passion can be felt with her every movement. She attacks everything she sets her mind upon and usually won't give up until the job is done.
-She is frail and tender. She has a storied past and if you give her half a chance she'll let you know all about it. She is sensitive yet strong. She keeps a happy face in spite of all thats happened to her. She's been through more than most should ever have to and for that she is an inspiration.
-He was a funny kid and a stereotypical preppie boy. Many people have misjudged him, including me in the beginning. One day I found out what he was truly like and liked him I did. He was always trying to fit in, but maybe he never really found his niche. He always seemed to be fighting a uphill battle and many people gave up on him long before I did. He spent most of his time trying to find favor in the sight of others when he really should have been trying to find favor with himself. One day it all caught up to him and now he doesn't know what he is anymore, what he is doing or where he is going. It makes me sad.
-He used to be a lot smaller than me, but not anymore. Its hard to figure out how we got to know each other. We used to play little league football together. We have become the best of friends and we share so many things in common. I can relate to his weird sense of humor and we both are very competitive. He has always had great potential as long as he doesn't get himself sidetracked with unnecessary things. One day he will break out and become larger than life.
-I used to hate him. I thought he was arrogant and too good for me. I guess I had prejudged him before I got to know him. Now he is my mentor and someone I can look up to.
-It's been a while since I've seen him. He was my first best friend I ever had until I had to move away. Our neighborhood was our stomping grounds. We were always on the move doing something. Too many good memories to ever forget. Sometimes I drive by his house just because. One time I saw him outside, but was too shy to stop. I'll probably regret that forever.
Well there are a lot more but I'm out of time for now...if I save it as a draft I know I'll never get back to it.
Goodbye for now
