"Things To Write About"

I stumbled upon this book in Anthropology that caught my eye, and basically it gives you 100's of topics and scenarios you can write about. So, why not incorporate that into my blog? It seems interesting and will keep my writing creativity flowing.

My first one is: Describe Yourself In The Third Person - Your Physical Appearance and Personality - As Though You Were a Character In a Book

   She was the type of girl who didn't take 'no' for an answer, there was something admirable about her stubborn, overly eager personality. Anyone who knew her could tell you that she was far off  the grid from your normal 19 year old. Physically, she was average -- brown hair, brown eyes, not short nor tall...  You wouldn't catch her in a two-piece bathing suit, but she wouldn't mind showing skin for fashion's sake.  The common observer would think she would dress the way she would dress to impress or make some sort of statement.... but truth was, Brisaela dressed the way she did because she wanted to feel good about herself. Confidence may have seemed like a trait she walked hand-in-hand with, but it was something she had to work on every single day. There was a light about Brisaela that made her different from the rest: whether, she'd be talking about all of her ambitions, or uplifting a random person's day - whenever she spoke, you wanted to listen and you wanted more of it. She carried herself in a very respectable way and because of that nothing and no one could bring her down. Days weren't always so easy and effortless for her -- she struggled, she fell, and she dove into her darkest parts. Life was her plain canvas after all; you'd never catch her with just two colors, but five and ten, and twenty. Emotional she was, but there wasn't a day she wouldn't make use of it. Details were important to her; nothing wasn't just nothing -- IT was always something. She believed in love above anything else -- love was her goal, her song, her muse .... if anything, that's what she wanted people to know her as: a girl who loved and never stopped loving.
