This is also a blog (omg I did it again!!!). Honestly, I&#8217;m going into this wondering if I can even top the utter radiance of the last blog in this series. But you never know until you try. In fact, that&#8217;s gonna be the theme for this one! You never know until you try. That&#8217;s definitely a completely original theme and the only blog with that theme ever.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>So. Paragraph two, blog two. You&#8217;re really here for another one. I&#8217;m so proud of you! You know what? This time! I&#8217;m not going to be mean in the second paragraph! Trying something new! You should also try something new! Something small or simple, like listening to a new song that you haven&#8217;t heard before, or starting a new book. Maybe, and this is the one I recommend, reading all the way to the end of this blog. Just get out there and try something new for once!<\/p>\n<p>Alright. So something new I&#8217;ve tried recently is a fruit called a Rambutan. They look a little funny, but they taste pretty good. They taste a little bit like grapes, kind of? Not really, but just a little bit. It&#8217;s weird. They&#8217;re so good though. I&#8217;m getting well adjusted to dorm life so far. It&#8217;s been nice being able to see friends every day again, and also hang out with them after school. I hope that the connections I make with people here will last a lifetime.<\/p>\n<p>I have a big project now. I&#8217;m not going to give anything away, but it&#8217;s in the style of a lot of Rick Riordan&#8217;s works. I recently finished the first draft for chapter 1, and I&#8217;m hoping to get a chance to workshop it soon. Even if I can&#8217;t workshop it, I have a good idea on what I need to look back on and alter once I complete the first draft of the entire story.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s fascinating though, isn&#8217;t it? How one sentence can make you change your entire introduction to a story, or how you realize you can implement foreshadowing in places. That&#8217;s what I love so much about writing as an artform. It&#8217;s so fluid, you can go back and change your mind on anything without having to restart completely. You can create worlds with entire histories and expand upon them, or create a moment, just an instant in someone&#8217;s life. Oh boy. Now I understand how some writers get god complexes.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Well, I suppose I should stick to the topic I mentioned earlier. You know, try something new! I doubt you&#8217;ve forgotten. These few minutes have been days for me. I&#8217;m just reminding myself, in this blog, what my theme is before I get off track. Honestly, I think I&#8217;ve about reached an endpoint for this one. I don&#8217;t want it to run as long as the last one.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Alright! Okay! Listen, you! Yeah, I&#8217;m talking to you! The reader! Let&#8217;s try something new. Yeah, sticking to my prompt, I know. Amazing isn&#8217;t it? I&#8217;ve been pondering this idea for a while, and I&#8217;m going to implement it. Though, you&#8217;re going to have to find out what it is on your own. Come on, It&#8217;ll be fun. You get to read and comment on every single blog I write, and I get to be motivated to continue my little plan! It&#8217;s a win-win!<\/p>\n<p>Alright, so with that announcement, I suppose I should end this one off. It&#8217;s a week early, the first blog posted today. I wish you the best of luck in figuring this out. Oh, by the way, this challenge is for classmates only. I won&#8217;t tell any of you what my plan is either. Only Literary Arts Juniors can participate, and well, Seniors too&#8230; I guess. The prize is, for whoever figures it out, a spot as a character in the story I&#8217;m writing, and the ability to plan out your character arcs. Doesn&#8217;t that sound fun? I&#8217;m sure it does. Well, best of luck, all of you!<\/p>\n<p>Oh, quick question. Are you sure this was a blog?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello! This is also a blog (omg I did it again!!!).
