A whole different picture
Enter March SOTM.
Questionnaire has began! If you’re in the contest, post your answers now! When you guys read a book or just a story on fanfiction, do you ever imagine the way the characters look? I was thinking about why I was so into twilight fanfictions, but I’m not that into the movie (i love it though). When I sit there and read about Bella and Edward, the characters in my head is not Kristen Stewart or Robert Pattinson. For Edward I see this incredibly handsome man who has a perfectly sculpted body. I don’t know what I see for Bella but it’s not Kristen. I’m not trying to say that the characters in the movie are ugly because they aren’t. For instance when I read a story about Jasper, I don’t see the Jasper in movie. This one is completely different. He’s built and his hair is freaking amazing. Do you guys ever get like this when you read or is just me?
The same thing happens when I watch a movie, except I tend to put myself as the characters and that’s why I can cry or relate somehow even though it has never happened to me before. After a movie is over I sometimes never think it is. If it gets a bad ending, I give it an ending that I like. Is it weird that I sometimes make the characters into something their not. Like how people write fan fictions their favorite characters, but for me I don’t write it down. I actually picture it in my head. Is that weird? Answer honestly, I won’t get offended.
I just recently added The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver to my bookshelf on goodreads. Click on the picture to get a bigger preview. I need opinions, has anyone read this book? If so was it good and stuff like that. We’re reading it for AP English right now, I haven’t really started but i will soon. I’m just hoping it’s good book. I’m having bad thoughts because the pages are long. :P My teacher said it’s a good book, but then again she is my teacher. So who has read it?
I finally made some icons.
I haven’t made any since like December. I guess I didn’t have any inspiration then but i do now and i have to say these icons are awesome! Also with every icon there is always a psd!

Goodluck to who ever joins your SOTM. I had enough of them for now. Trying to get votes was tiring. Lol.
Yeap, I try to imagine them too. I hated the Twilight movie since the characters didn’t really fit in the image I had, except Alice ofcourse. But I still went and watched them all in the cinema. :P

Hey, thanks for your comment.
The first day of school went well, but then again, can first days ever be good? :P
Haha, I liked the Selena Gomez one too, but then once I made it, I realized I did a pretty sloppy job with it. :/ I like the colors used and everything, but it’s a bit all over the place. XD
I agree with what you’ve said about the twilight books. When I first read the books, I never imagined the characters like they appeared in the movie. My characters were just different. I guess everyone makes their own images of the characters in their heads, depending on what they interpret from the text.
We’re reading books for school too. In total, we’re reading around 10 books for English and Literature this year. I haven’t heard of the Poisonwood bible. :S It might be good, but sometimes teachers have a different idea of what good is. haha. xP
