Aledawn Review: Soul Eater Anime

Aledawn Reviews: Soul Eater

Soul Eater. A sound soul dwells within a sound mind and a sound body. These are the first lines on which every episodes opens. The word soul is lightened in blue and glowing like a flame.

Complete review behind the break.

Rain Relaxations

Dear followers,

I know there is already a blog entry where I talk about me sleeping with the Sounds of the Earth Thunderstorm. But I just need to tell you once more about how wonderful it is to sleep in the rain. It's amazingly wonderful. I know that some of you are begging to know how this works exactly and I can only tell you the basics.

Step One: Be sure to have rain or rainy music with you at the time of your rain meditation or sleep. This can be found Here (Youtube) or Here (Youtube) or Here (Download - Paid)

Step Two: Once you have your rain, be sure to be relaxed. Sit on a pile of pillows, a comfortable sofa or on your bed. 

Step Three: When you are comfortable, put on the rain sounds. Make sure you can hear nothing else, but do make sure you do not disturb those near to you.

Step Four: Imagine the rain. If you use a laptop for the rain sounds, try to find a rain video. If your imagination is good enough, try finding yourself looking out of a window towards the rain. Open the window and smell the rain. The more details you can imagine, the more effect it will have.


Step Five: Relax. Take deep breaths and try to fall asleep (if that is your goal) or try to meditate. You might have to repeat this for several times before you get the wanted effect. 

Good luck!

Love,

Aledawn

Having a totally weird fantasy about a gay man

Dear people of the world! Yes, I've noticed you.

Today, at this moment, I would like to open up to you a bit. As you might have seen from my title, I am having weird fantasy's about a gay guy. But not just any gay guy, let me assure you. I am having fantasy's about Captain Jack Harkness and the man who portrays him, Mr. John Barrowman. 
 I mean, please, just look at the man. You will now why. Well his portrayal of Captain Jack is so good that I've become hooked on Torchwood. Yes, Torchwood, the Doctor Who spin-off.


Now I know I should be doing other things, and trust me, I am, I just can't help the fact that I'm drawn to him or the series. I've had an open discussion about this with my fiance, Aron, who told me that having fantasy's was alright. After all, John Barrowman is gay. Now I'm wondering, out loud, because I am telling all of you this, if Aron does not have the same secret feeling. I know for a fact that John has a partner, but still... One can only hope. Thank god it only stays at fantasy's, or else we would be in couples counseling by now.

.



Love,

Aledawn

From Moonlight to Stardust Update

Dear readers and people who are interested,





From Moonlight to Stardust Update!


I have recently (last night) finished Chapter 18! This is big news because as some people might remember, I wanted to make around 20 chapters for the first novel. So right now I am writing a closing. Since I am very busy with other things, it might take a while for me to finish it. The picture above is my semi-new book cover, but it is my current wallpaper. I also started to make a few new GIFs and I am quite happy with the results.
My favorite character list had shifted a bit and I'm not too happy with Autumn, my lead female. But I can't blame her. I would not be to happy about it myself.

So now, it's just finishing it, checking for errors and putting it through the Beta readers.





Love,

Aledawn

I'm really like a wizard

Dear readers and followers,


Yes, you read my title correctly. Because a wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to.



In this case I am talking about my writing, again. It's like 2.18 am today and I am writing, not only on my blog, but also on my story. The music that just popped up is Conquest of Paradise and I'm writing a battle scene, so please excuse me for a moment. 

Alright, sorry for the interruption. I'm also a bit into the GIFs at this moment as you might see from my wonderful pictures. 

I'm a little busy bee as I secretly promised myself to have finished From Moonlight to Stardust by now. Alas, I didn't and though I only have a few chapters to write, it takes very long. At one point I even lost my USB-stick that held the story. Since I didn't really care I decided to put it off longer and longer. Until now. Truthfully, my inspiration is not really flowing but I do try my best. Even writing here, on my blog is a form of writing for me. I know I need my sleep and probably will wake up way to late tomorrow and then be cranky the entire day, well that's just my problem.

So I'll just put in one more pretty picture here and then I'll be writing just a bit longer. Yes, I am like a wizard, because I write when I am meant to write, even if it's at 2.30 am. 

Love,

Aledawn

Organizing for Chaotics

Dear people,

I am in deep over my head... I am to the point of organizing my paperwork. You know, the stuff that needs to be kept for years and years and years until your dead and you children and grandchildren will throw it all away. 

I'm literately in over my head.  It looks like this only without the desk and stuff. I need to organize it on date, sender and message.

I want to organize it all into these maps to drag them along. Well I'll do that now again.

Love,

Aledawn
