Hey, this is my very first post.

Post Reply New Topic

Hello everyone, thanks for reading this, so... this is my first post. I registered today, I should probably be sleeping right now but that's another story. In short, I'm hoping to come across people who are interested and want to talk about either 1. Game of Thrones (HBO, please no spoilers from ASOIAF), 2. Lost Planet Extreme Condition (PS3, rifle, I'll give you a game) and 3. Any other Film or TV productions.

I do like other things on and off, but I'm pretty much only interested in Game of Thrones at the moment, school is demanding right now so I can only get away with being into one thing at a time. Oh yes, school; Theatre Studies, Film Studies, English Literature and a little Biology is okay too. I know my Harry Potters and I do like to play Texas Hold'em.

I'm eighteen years old, male, I have brown hair and blue eyes.

I live in South Wales (the old one), United Kingdom.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask, thanks (again) for reading this, I hope to hear from you.

Hehe, I should be asleep too.
I'm new as well, though I live in Canada. ^.^
Hm... I hear a lot about this 'Game of Thrones'. Maybe I'll look into it later?

"Sleep"
I hear it's a wonderful thing
I might have to try it sometime tonight
If only I could

Should be sleeping as well

Welcome Chivers.. any other special interests of yours that you'd like to share?

Yeahh you should! It's really good, I got into it after working with one of the main characters in real life ooh I have relatives in Canada, it seems like a lovely place.

Thanks! Umm it varies... I can absolutely love something one moment but then forget about it for a few months maybe. Ohh I write poems now and again? I forgot about that

It's nice, but going to sleep isn't fun. Why can't you sleep? I do have trouble getting to sleep too mind, I get easily distracted and time goes by eerily fast at night.

Woo, I finally slept then woke up again the slept then woke up around 11:00 a.m. I have insomnia.

What is Game of Thrones about?

Well, it's a medieval fantasy about family, pride and war... there's dragons too but only three of them and they're across the Narrow Sea. Basically different family's are different 'houses' or clans, similar to the clans of Scotland. There are rich houses, more honour-orientated houses and some not so honourable though successful houses. It's great. It's an 18 though.

Glad you managed to get some sleep! I hope you sleep well tonight too.

It is lovely. I've always preferred other places, though - our summers are too hot for my tastes.
Oh, I write poetry, too!
Not that I'm very intellectual, though - I still watch Disney cartoons, after all. ^.^ Hehe.
I'm working on a novel loosely based on Little Red Riding Hood, as well.

Awh well if you like cold weather and rain, Wales is great! but seriously, I've always said that I prefer the cold because you can always put on more layers but when it's hot it's less practical to remove them, plus people get agitated easier.

Oh! I've not written a piece for a few months now, I only really write about things that I feel are important or if I need to get something off my chest. My last piece was a Shakespearean Sonnet, so it had to be pretty precise in terms of syllables and rhyme scheme.

I've tried a few times to write a novel but I always tend to lose interest myself and not complete them, or forget where I was going with it. That sounds cool though, I'd be interested in reading some of it

The same thing happens to me. I'm determined to finish this novel, though. ^.^
I don't write Shakespearian - more often than not I just write whatever comes to mind.
I want to be a professional author one day, so I write constantly.
Dark poetry based on a Disney cartoon has been my suit lately, and I'm not sure exactly why. Maybe all the conspiracies...?

Oh the Shakespearean Sonnet was a one off, I usually just do A,B,C,B. And oh, I'd like to hear one. I must admit, I watched 'Frozen' the other day.

Good luck, I hope your dreams come true and you write the next best-seller. I will certainly buy a copy of anything you do publish!

Aw, thanks! I've been addicted to Gravity Falls.
I haven't written anything about Frozen, but a friend of mine plans to. ^.^
Hm, lemme see, where's that one that really could work on its own?
Aha, here it is!

It's sweet on the surface and darker beneath

This place is dangerous, why don't you see?

Heed the warnings given, don't dare to delve in

The questions you're asking, the answers are grim

No such thing as an angel in hell, now you're on your own

Do you really think that you could make it alone?

No true victory arises, only temporary peace

Will we ever find the haven that we seek?

No happy ending yet to speak of in this dark fairytale

Of demons and dreams and an angel in hell
Personally, it's not my favorite, but I do like the last two lines for some reason. ^.^

Oh I haven't seen Gravity Falls, I'll have to look it up. That is really good! Yeah that's an ABCB rhyme structure, you write very similarly to me actually umm here's that sonnet I wrote, I grow to dislike it more each day and it needs a re-draft but here it is, if I remember it correctly.

Life runs it's unpredicted course to soon,
Your ticket bares a new stamp everyday,
A flower picked before it's time to bloom,
The patient hunter time will catch it's prey.
The ticking countdown cannot be reset,
And it's precise digits are uncertain,
My only hope is that we don't forget,
That life can close quickly, like a curtain.
Forgotten? Only time can tell that tale,
Existing in the mind, no shadows cast,
It's crude and wistful ticking will prevail,
It whispers where it breaths of distant past.
So love, don't live in gluttony of time,
Pass on the gifted gift which is so fine.


That's it, each line had to be 10 syllables (iambic pentameter), with 14 lines, consisting of three quatrains with an A,B,A,B rhyme scheme which tell of a problem, with the rhyming couplet at the end which gives a resolution to the problem. Give it a go, it's rather fun
