Currently... [2]

Hello Poetteers,

{Fun fact: What's Up Wednesday was based at least in part off of the Currently... post that had been circulating at the time. Thanks goes to Katy Upperman and Jamie Morrow for starting this up again so we all have a way to touch base now that WUW is no longer.}

Loving

My friends.

Reading

My latest reads were Lying Out Loud [Kody Keplinger]. I gave it 4 stars.
Everything Leads To You [Nina LaCour]. I gave it 5 stars.
The Wrath and The Dawn [Renée Ahdieh]. I gave it 5 stars.

Watching

Girl Meets World

Listening to

My favorite songs at the moment is See You Again, cover by Cimorelli and Fast Car, cover by Boyce Avenue.

Thinking about

Still, future events and projects. I'm looking for a couple beta readers for my upcoming poetry collection.

Anticipating

My upcoming poetry collection and upcoming events.

Wishing

For a love struck moment.

Making me happy

The birds and flowers.

Love, Fida

#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.
