All of us writers get to that point where we have no clue what to write about. It happens to the best of us. We come up with an idea, but when we start writing it doesn't come together like we wanted.

We stare off in today space trying to think of something. What can I write about today? My day? My dog? Is my writing boring? Am I writing about something people will read?

Here is a list of things to write about... Quote style.

WRITE YOUR LIFE

1. If there’s a book you really want to read, but it hasn’t been written yet, then you must write it. ~ Toni Morrison

2. The one thing that you have that nobody else has is you. Your voice, your mind, your story, your vision. So write and draw and build and play and dance and live as only you can. ~ Neil Gaiman

3. Better to write for yourself and have no public, than to write for the public and have no self. ~ Cyril Connolly

WRITE ABOUT YOUR EXPERIENCES

4. You write about what you know. ~ Larry David

5. If you do not breathe through writing, if you do not cry out in writing, or sing in writing, then don’t write, because our culture has no use for it. ~ Anais Nin

WRITE TO KNOW MORE

6. I write entirely to find out what I’m thinking, what I’m looking at, what I see and what it means. What I want and what I fear. ~ Joan Didion

7. I write books to find out about things. ~ Rebecca West

WRITE ABOUT WHAT GIVES US PLEASURE

8. Write in recollection and amazement for yourself. ~ Jack Kerouac

9. I like to write when I feel spiteful. It is like having a good sneeze. ~ D. H. Lawrence

All IN ALL

10. And by the way, everything in life is writable about, if you have the outgoing guts to do it, and the imagination to improvise. The worst enemy to creativity is self doubt . ~ Sylvia Plath

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.

The infamous RBF is something I have and am known for. It’s kind of exhausting to be asked if you're okay all the time or being told to smile more. Girls with RBF get judged to be mean and rude much quicker than the girl who is always smiling. It’s true and just plain natural for someone who is generally smiling all the time to come off as more trustworthy and I've gotten used to it.

Having a permafrown with a piercing look comes with great power.

Parks and Rec
IndieWire

We all know that Parks and Recreation is one of the greatest shows ever to air on TV. As we watched every episode, we all found a piece of us in each character (even Jerry). From the moment we met the pit, to the time we saw it flourish into a beautiful park, we all had developed a little bit of Pawnee, Indiana in our hearts.
