Drawing may be one of the most fun hobbies to have but it may also be a difficult one. Although starting out to draw may become hard for those who have never draw before, it becomes very easy once one has started. I have started off in this similar situation. Then, I find myself drawing a lot more after I give myself some helpful tips. Here are three helpful tips for those who are beginners at drawing:

1. Look at the art that influences you to draw

There has to be a reason that one has decided that they want to draw. In other words, the inspiration that makes one want to draw. For me, the things that inspire me to draw are Disney, Disney's Pixar, Studio Ghibli, fantasy and anime. Try looking at their works to get the inspiration of drawing or start thinking creatively on what to draw. This also gets one to become motivated to draw.

2. Let your creative mind be free

One of the most difficult parts when drawing is actually the process of drawing. Sometimes I let myself be limited to drawings that are shown in animated films or TV series and this makes it very hard to continue or finish a drawing. Let your creative mind be free. One should also draw in a place that you are most comfortable drawing out your imagination and creative mind on paper. Be very open-minded and one may also find out more things to inspire one to draw.

3. Embrace the hobby of drawing

The struggle that I have to go through is embracing and accepting my love for drawing. For me, I love drawing but there are times that I get discouraged by people who keep telling me to do something other than drawing. The best advice is just to ignore them and express your love to draw by just drawing. Do not let others stop you from drawing. Drawing is an amazing and rare talent to have and not many can do this talent nor keep this talent or skill for a very long time. Work hard and show the others that drawing is one of the greatest talents and skills to have.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
