Favorite Books/Books Currently Reading: My all-time favorite book was The Hunger Games. But,other than that, I did enjoy the Percy Jackson series. I'm not currently reading any books, I need to find some more which catch my interest.

 

[spoiler=Writing Example]

 

Dim, whitish-yellow moonlight penetrated through the broad, green, lush leaves which hung suspended by a branch, dangling in the chilly breeze, waving from side to side at times. The light smacked straight into the hard, soil-packed ground, which exerted a tender and light type of brown, a color that made the ground look perfect for planting. The birds would chirp, the wind would blow, he water would drip. It made a melody which was serene, and took you away from the outside world. The woody smell and ground-like aroma made people feel comforted and relaxed when they entered the forest. Some leaves littered the ground, but all were still green and alive, and still showed their spring colors. The trees which the leaves fell from looked radiant and alive, looking very tall and sturdy, and standing upright, facing the wind with bravery. But, even so, they looked old and wise, as if they had been here a thousand years, and know every person who has walked across this lush, inviting forest; every occurance which has ever happened; every story told in the forest's depths, where only the trees could hear. The sound of the forest was in tune with itself. But out of the trees, one stood out, the tallest, the biggest, and the strongest one of them all. Its leaves were massive, stretching out to the size of a regular adult. The giant, brown trunk was home to many creatures, big or small. At the base of the trunk, where the giant, tall trunk touched the long, stretchy roots which seemed to go on forever, sat a boy. Much of his appearance was hidden in the darkness. The only things which could be seen was his face, which was pale, hi eyes, which were glittering blue, and his teeth, which were blinding white. In the boy's lap sat a small harp, one which gave off a radiant gold. It gleamed like a herald, or even a saivor, from the impending darkness. The boys huffing was silent; the rise and fall of his chest was not seen. He clutched the harp the instant he felt something went wrong, or heard something move. His eyes dashed across the world he could not see, aiming at nothing in particular, just beaming into empty space.

 

To break the silence, a voice of authority and stern behavior echoed across the forest. It did not sound human, more god-like. It said, "Trees," the boy shuffled a little, "are not just a part of nature." The voice was inching closer and closer, the boy's face paler and paler, "They know of all the things which go on in every place where there is a tree. They know all the mysteries of this world, and even more. But the question is, how do you get a tree to tell? How do you get a tree to tell its secrets?" The boy was shivering now, the voice felt as if it was right in front of him now, creeping even closer. "A tree tells its secrets only to those who listen. Only those special people, who take their time to sit down, and listen. Now listen boy. Listen, and you will find your way... Listen, and you will find the anwer..." The wind blew even harder now, and it started to get cold. The trees began to moan from the wind, a moan which sounded ominous.

 

"Listen to the trees... and your dreams will all resurface..."

 

In the forest, at the base of the biggest tree, all that was left was a leaf, which said, "My name is Reyson. On the day names 'Celestion', I have been sent to the Land of Dreams. Today, I am among the stars..."

 

The leaf blew away, and tumbled into the endless darkness. Now all that was left was the moaning of the trees, and the moaning of the voice which was slipping away from reality...
