I like to bury myself in a book, usually a fantasy/adventure/sci-fi or paranormal/horror book. I like to write my own books and stories sometimes because I like spilling a fragment of my mind onto paper. When I read it, it reminds me of who I am and how words can have big effects and massive power on people. Like the speech "I have a dream". words which inspired millions of people and still do now to this day. My books and stories are my "I have a dream" speech, I'm giving my opinions on the world, sharing my thoughts and speaking out of the crowd. Although they are fantasy in a way they are me. Just exaggerated, what I feel like inside or looking beyond the plain eye. I think fantasy isn't just fiction, fantasy is your imagination, fantasy is what you can't see clearly on someone, you have to look deeper. And, fantasy is what you make of the world, making the best of what you've got and letting your mind run wild.
When I read or write I forget all my worries and problems and enter a world where all your earthy problems disappear. 

I know my stories aren't the best, much like myself. I'll never be the best. I'll never have the 'right' fashion sense or the 'right' taste of music. But that's who I am.
