WHAT'S UP WED: Coffee Edition

Hello Poetteers,

If we had coffee I would tell you I quit twitter. I have things to work on in my personal life I don't share.

If we had coffee I would tell you I stopped listening to the mainstream pop music we all know. I had stated slowly and now i'm full on with nasheeds and other islamic/arabic songs.

If we had coffee I would tell you more little things like I would rather have chocolate than coffee. That my charger died, I need a new one.

If we had coffee I would tell you that I'm excited for Ramadan and summer to be here. The ramadan is partly reason of my twitter thing. I would joke that this may be my last cup of coffee or I'm about to get so much more because i'm about to be sleep deprived.

If we had coffee I would tell you it's WHAT'S UP WEDNESDAY. Above, I already answered what else i'm up to and what is inspiring me. To answer the question what I've been writing to check out my tumblr page. I share so much more poems there. I would tell you to check out my wattpad page because I share two new short stories. Last but not least, check out my previous posts for reviews on my recent reads.

Love and thank you, Fida

If we had coffee, I would tell you that you're fabulous.

If we had coffee, I would tell you good luck with all your writing and to enjoy Ramadan and stay true to yourself.

If we had coffee, I would tell you to have a wonderful week.

I love the originality of this post ! (I'm sitting here drinking coffee lol...) I admire that you are cutting things from your life that you don't need, like twitter. I've been trying to focus on what matters and drop the rest too.

#LoveAThon Mini Challenge 4

Hello Poetteers, This challenge is all about mash-ups. We have to put together our bookish life with a non-bookish passion. It's easy once you know your passion. I love reading and writing stories and poetry. I love music, food and travel. I want to travel everywhere. Backpack in Europe. Explore Asia. Help Arabia. Try all the different foods. Probably with the characters of PAPER TOWNS. They have a good plan in place. You got to listen to music when you're driving or on a plane. UNWRITTEN is a bookish song. Or anything Natasha Bedingfield. Or anything bought for my phone. I just like background noise when I read or write. Yet I like to hang out with the songs I first heard of when introduced to music, instead of the newer ones. Maybe in our travels and meals we bump into my favorite artists and get to do some cool stuff like write, sing or just explore with them. At the end and even during the adventures I'd keep a journal of poetry and what we did. There I got everything I...
