Saying goodbye to Zadie's World

 Hey! It's Zadie here after about 4 months of not posting. I'm here to finally and formally say good bye to Zadie's World. I started Zadie's world about a year ago when the pandemic started as a way to channel all my energy into writing. This in a way was life changing because ever since writing has been HUGE and ever since I've been writing poetry and *humble brag* I even won contests with it. So why are you saying good bye you may ask? Well I'm saying bye because I feel like the era of my writing and reviewing is kind of over and I've moved on to a new era of writing and reviewing. I do want to thank anyone who is reading this for supporting me through and through <3 <3 Ily all so much and have an amazing day -Zadie

Hello

 Hey I realize I haven't posted a lot. But I just popped on to say go listen to my podcast just your average girl: https://open.spotify.com/episode/6UN3toEkzbZVHNR7G60KHi?si=91505c0eabdb4839

Happy Holidays

  Merry Belated Christmas and Holidays everyone.  (Quick disclaimer this is pretty much a big long rant about my life) Hope everyone had a great Christmas and enjoying winter break. My christmas was pretty boring but I got a record player and some twinkle lights. How was your Christmas? Sorry for the lack a post again I have a lot going on with our other blog (for more info on that check my other post) and we started a online book club so you can go check that out. Other than that nothing has really been going on. I'm STILL working on the Harry Potter profiles, but it's taking foreverrr. I started reading "The Outsiders" and so far it's really good. Plus Keepers of the lost cities 8.5 came out a couple months ago and it was pretty good, but there's very little that's actually part of the book mostly just profiles and stuff. I was also really excited because Taylor Swift dropped her new surprise album evermore (my favorite song is no body no crime). I also ...

Very important announcement

  Hey everyone! I have a very important announcement! Now for a couple of days me and my friends have been working on a collaborative blog and we are finally ready to share it (the link to the blog will be at the end of this post). We use pen names to protect our privacy, but I can tell you guys that my pen name is Raven. We will write about books (you can go check out the what we're reading section) and we also do short stories and other things. But because I will be more busy with Always Buried in Books (That's the name of the blog fyi) I won't be able to post here a ton, but it will probably be fine since there's 5 people on our other blog so I don't have to post there everyday. You should go check out our blog though because unlike her there will be at least one post everyday (probably more since there are 5 of us, so if you want something fun and easy to read you can go check that out. (Although Plume likes to write scary stories sometimes, but their not scary ...

Top 10 BTS Song

Top 10 Bts Songs So after some inspiration from a friend here are my top 10 BTS Songs. If your not a fan of Bts you can just skip the post.  Just a little back round info BTS is a K-pop group made out of 7 members (my bias is J-Hope).  10) All Night.  This is one of the most unique BTS songs and one of my brothers favorites. It was kind of a jazz like song and we all loved Juice Wrld on the track (May he rest in peace). Paired with RM and Suga's verses and the repetitive chorus of All Night I absolutely loved this song!  9) Mic Drop.  This song brings back special memories because we had to do this song for our 4th grade dance (lol). The rap verse are also BOMB.  8) On.  I vividly remember the day the music video for On came out. I was on face time with my friends and there was A LOT of screaming. The music video was very unique it was kind of like art (idk). There was a good balance of vocals and rap.  7) Anpanman.  Sometimes I feel like thi...

Top 10 TV Shows

  Hey ppl!! I realized I haven't posted a list in a while and I've watched a lot of tv during quarantine (who hasn't) so here we are.  SO I may deny this later, but this (for now) is like the ULTIMATE top 10 for me.  10) Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt  Sure it's a little silly, but that's what we love about it! Kimmy's been trapped in apocalypse bunker since she was a little girl so when they are busted out the world is so new to Kimmy and she knows exactly what she wants to do, move to New York. With the help of her roommate Titus, her landlord Lillian, and her new boss Jacqueline she navigates New York and struggles to adjusts to a world filled with so many possibilities. A/N  It was so bright funny and pretty much everything I needed during quarantine. I fell in love with the characters enthusiasm and sarcasm and just aspect of the show. It's a great show for anyone who wants a funny wacky show.   9) Julie and the Phantoms It may be a little, "kiddy"...

Part Three

Hey guys!! Scroll down for part one and two of my Story The School For the Lost!  Part Three!!  Emma forgot to mention, she was scared of heights. Here she was fifty feet in the air in a helicopter. This was not in description of the mission. Jake and Ashlyn just laughed like she was making a joke. Again this wasn't the craziest thing that happened this week. So far she'd woke up in the woods knowing very little about who she was and why she was there. She got shot by a dart only to wake up in another weird place. Then she learned about the School for the Lost and got recruited into a main field team. After that she trained for two days and suddenly she was qualified to chase down random people who may or may not be crazy or deadly.  She was currently on a helicopter about to land in Tokyo Japan and go chase down someone names Lisa Choke. They literally were chasing down a random lady, and all they knew about her was her name and that she was somewhere in Asia. Bi...

Part 2

 This is the Second Part of my Chapter to Chapter story the School for the lost. If this is your first time here the first part is below this.  Part two! Now you can see who the person was!! School for the Lost Emma looked as closely as she could. The figure slowly advanced getting closer and closer. She took a better look, it was a tall teenage boy with wavy hair going in every direction. Before she could say something the boy shot her in the head with a red dart. The last thing she remembered was the laugh of the boy who shot her. Emma awoke. Where was she? She almost laughed. It wasn't the first time that had happened to her today. The walls were painted a light shade of grey. It wasn't prison cell grey. It was a light grey that would of been calming (If she wasn't trapped in a room of course.)  She got up. Her legs felt a lot better. A teenage girl approached her. She was very pretty, but not in a try hard way. Her long brown hair was braided and the tips were dyed re...

School for the lost

 School for the lost  So since I am going to continue here is a quick refresher  Chapter one School for the Lost Emma jolted up. Where was she? The only thing she remembered was leaving a Victorian Mansion at dark. She looked around. All she could see were tall lush trees. She got up. Her mouth watered, but she ignored it. About two feet away from her was a brown pack that blended in perfectly with the flaky dirt. She grabbed it searching for water. Instead she found a notebook, a pen, and a map. She sighed. There were no signs of water just an never ending row of trees. The sun was rising and she looked down at herself. She had a short pixie cut and her T-Shirt was ripping, her jeans were nearly falling apart. She looked closer at her surroundings. The forest was quiet and she dared to venture further. She saw a shining river six feet ahead. She tried to run, but her legs almost gave out. She would get to the water soon she thought. Slowly she walked down to the river....

5 hits and misses of the VMAS

Image
  As you probably know the vmas were yesterday. Here are 5 hits and misses for those of you who didn't watch it Hit: Lady Gaga's masks  WOW!!!! Lady Gaga's mask were stunning. They should of won the awards.   My personal favorite Miss: Miley Cyrus' performance. ALL OF IT. I mean seriously kids are watching this!  Hit: BTS's performance. I think we can all agree BTS rocked the show with Dynamite.  Miss: Koby Bryant!! Why did they leave Koby out of the memorial!!! They payed their respects to Juice Wrld, Pop Smoke, Little Richie, Chadwick Boseman, but not Koby!!! Hit: The weekends acceptance speech. Even though The Weekend won the most coveted VMA (video of the year) for blinded by the lights. He made it clear that he could not celebrate. Justice for Breonna Taylor and Jacob Blake Miss: Maddison Beer's dress.  WHA?!?!?!?! I'm honestly very confused Hit: DaBaby performance. Ok I'm not a big fan of his, but the performance was pretty cool. Combining some o...

More short story dares

Short story dares two I finished my first short story dare about a possum who could play the trumpet (You can see it below). Now you can ask for more short stories by commenting. Feel free to do more than one Zadie

Short Story dare 1

Ok so my first short story dare was about a Possum who plays the trumpet. Feel free to comment more dares. Nico this is the craziest story I've ever written here it goes.  Petunia wanted to be a normal possum. A possum with normal sized eyes who could climb trees, but of course she was born with huge eyes and was terrible at climbing trees. Instead she could play the trumpet, that's right the trumpet. Now at this point your probably wondering how a possum could play a trumpet. Well it took two people to play the trumpet. One to blow into the silver lined spout and the other to press the three gold keys on top. Her and her friend Lela would meet every other day and play together. Lela's slightly larger than the ordinary cheeks were good for blowing into the trumpet and Petunia was very quick. Her paws swiftly changed hopping from left to right. This as you may of guessed looked exceedingly hilarious. There was a plump possum blowing into a silver mouth piece and a possum wit...

Best book I've read during Quarantine

Since we're all stuck at home there has been so much time to read books! Here are the best books I've read during quarantine  The Hate U Give!  Oh my goodness this book is the perfect book to read right now. With the tragic death of George Floyd and it's after math this book is perfect to read right now. This book is explicit and does have some adult concepts, but is still is a great book!  Artemis Fowl I recently read this Book with my book club. You never want to leave the world of fairies, leprechauns, and goblins. The new movie is coming out next Friday! Magnus Chase I did a review about this earlier. (hehe) I love this book series so much. I could not stop reading it. I just want to jump into the world of Magnus, Samirah, and Alex! Emma  This is a timeless classic one of Jane Austen's best. Emma thinks she is a great match maker for couples, but Emma's couples don't seem to work out, at all. This hilarious comedy about finding love is a great read for any d...

Ways to help people out

Hey guys! Sorry that I haven't posted anything in a while. I promise the next installment of The School For The Lost is coming. For now thought here are some ways to help people out...  -Wave and smile! It may seem like a very simple gesture, but I know someone smiling and waving makes my day.  -Video chat with people. Now since we are all home we can't see anyone face to face, but we can still video chat with them. -Send postcards or care packages. Right now there are a lot of people who are struggling. By sending post cards or care packages you are reminding them that somebody cares about them and we're all in this together.  -Volunteer! Maybe try volunteering at a local soup kitchen or run errands for people who can't do it themselves -Support front line workers. Your neighborhood may have a hour where they clap for front line workers if they don't create one! -Support local/small businesses. A lot of small businesses are suffering through the pandemi...

Chapter by Chapter story

Inspired by my friend (check out her website at  https://paperstarblog.weebly.com/blog ) I am now introducing Chapter by Chapter stories!  School for the Lost Emma jolted up. Where was she?
