Top Ten Tuesday- Non Bookish Hobbies

 

Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana @thatartsyreadergirl. Each week we get a prompt and make a blog post based on that. This week it's non-bookish hobbies. 


1- Musical Theater

I’ve been doing Musical theater for years and it’s one of my passions in life. I’ve played ensemble and supporting roles in a variety of shows. I also enjoy talking about it for hours on end. 

2- Writing

 

When I’m not writing on the blog I’m writing stories and fan fiction. I love writing as a creative outlet and I love watching my stories come to life. Currently, I’m at the start of my 7th National Novel Writing Month, but not consecutive. I write YA contemporary stories. My fanfic fandoms are small, but I do a lot of Anastasia and The Great Comet Fics. I want to get back into writing fics because I enjoyed the Beetlejuice and The Prom stories I had.

3- Singing

I’ve been singing for years in voice lessons, choirs, and shows. I trained as a soprano for years before I even started trying to belt. Mezzo is my comfort zone, but I do have a solid upper register and my lower notes are there just not as much.

4- Watching TV

I don’t watch a ton of TV anymore but I do love watching the holiday programming on the Food Network, and One Day At A Time. I have Netflix and Disney + so I watch a lot of stuff on those as well. I might get back into cable TV more if I had a show that drew my attention I’ll watch it.   

5- Watching Movies

I love a good romantic comedy when it comes to movies. My other favorite genres are musicals and period dramas. I’m not one to watch a horror or a paranormal type of movie.

6- Playing games

I’m not a huge gamer but I love to play Hay Day, Among Us, Animal Crossing Pocket Camp, and Jackbox. I’ll usually play games with friends, and from time to time, I will play Minecraft.

 

7- Social Media

I prefer to hang out on Discord and Tumblr. I know this might seem strange, but I’ve met some of my best friends on Discord, and even though we haven’t fully met yet, I really enjoy their company and talking to them.

8- Hanging out with people

I’m an introvert, but I still like talking to people in small groups. It’s mostly family and a small group of friends for me.

9- Watching Twitch streams

I love watching Twitch streams. My go-to streamers stream a variety of games, but they’re members of the Broadway community which is how I found out they were on Twitch. I’ll watch any games that aren’t really scary or gory.

10- Sleeping

My final hobby is sleeping. I know how bad that sounds, but when I can, I love taking naps during the day.

  1. Singing is such a cool hobby.

    And I enjoy hanging out on social media, too. The right sites can be wonderful places to make new friends.

  4. I love watching TV and movies as well. I love writing but I didn't include it in my list this week. That's so cool that you're in musical theatre, it's one of my absolute favourite things and I'm so sad it's not really happening at the moment.

Top Ten Tuesday- characters that remind me of myself

Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday! This is a weekly meme where readers discuss ten or whatever number you would like to have based on a prompt. Our host is Jana at  thatartsyreadergirl . Our topic this week is Characters Like Myself. I am going to take a two words that each character has in in my opinion,  and discuss how that relates to me  as well. 1- Cather Avery from Fangirl Writer- At her core, Cath is a writer, and she loves her stories. I am a writer of both Fan Fiction and original stories like Cath so this was an automatic in for this. Both of us love our work and we tend to through ourselves whole hardheartedly into our work. Sisters- I might have mentioned this on the blog before but I have a younger sister and we’re only roughly 18 months a part. Cath and her twin sister Wren are polar  opposites and this is me and my sister. My younger sister is an extrovert and into science. I on the other hand,  am an introverted creative bookworm.  2- Miriam Kendrick from C

Top Ten Tuesday- Favorite Books of the Year Part 1 (12-21)

    Hi! Jana hosts Top Ten Tuesday @ thatartsyreadergirl . The purpose of this meme was to bring the book blogging community together and foster our love of lists. Each week, Jana posts a topic, and we readers respond based on that prompt. This week our topic is a freebie, so I decided to make my list of my top ten reads part one.   Middle Grade 12- Never After by Melissa de la Cruz I'm almost done with this book. It's a duology, and I loved the new twist on fairy tales.    YA 13- Don’t Read the Comments by Eric Smith I read this early in the year and it stuck with me. This YA Contemporary about gaming and the culture of the gaming industry was fantastic.  14- The Book Thief by Markus Zusak It took me years to read this book but I really enjoyed it. I love the unique narrator, the characters, and the story.  15- The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas This is another backlist release. I loved this book, and I knew when I read it that it had the potential to be on this list. I still thi

2019 Book Resolutions Tag!

Hey everyone! So Thursdays on the blog I am going to post a new tag. I think tags are so much fun, and I enjoy the time to reflect on what I’ve read in the past, or what I want to read. Images come from Goodreads. I grabbed the questions from  this blog 1. An author you’d like to read (that you’ve never read before). Leigh Bardugo! I have heard such great things about the Grisha verse, so I want to see if it lives up to all the hype. I have a feeling it will, and I am intrigued by the world. I got the first three books in the series as one large Ebook , so I ’m going to start that next month. I can’t wait to go on the journey and be immersed in a new series!  2. A book you’d like to read. Romanov by Nadine Brandes I love Anastasia and the Romanov family. This looks like such a fantastic retelling. I am drawn in just reading the blurb on Goodreads.  3. A classic you’d like to read. A Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett. I’ve had the Barnes and Nobel edition of
