I really like books with a little bit of everything: Wisdom, humor, love, happiness, sorrow...
I was wondering what are some good books like that?
(No fantasy books please.)
Some of my favorite books are: Eat Pray Love, Phantom Of The Opera, Soul Surfer, The Perks Of Being A Wallflower, Warm Bodies, Water For Elephants, Twenty Thousand Leagues Under The Sea, The bible.
I hope that gives you a good idea.
THANKS!

Organising my fabric stash. HELP!
Started almost 2 years ago · Last post about 1 month ago ·
Well it's sort of more up to you, but I'll tell you what I would do, and I'm a very organized person:
I would fold the fabrics and separate them by color. (You could separate them by both, but I would do color.) Because if you want to make a Yellow chicken, then you have all the different pattern types you want, in the color you need. You can make a yellow Polka dot chicken! Haha!
I would put colorful fun labels on each bin.
And shelves are always nice to keep your bins on.
That's what I'd do. Hope this helped!

Song Writing Tips?
Started 6 months ago · Last post 3 months ago ·
It's difficult to tell you how to come up with a melody, because that's something that usually just comes... For me anyway. But I suppose what I do is find a band or song, or more than one that has the sound i want to have, and I listen to them over and over for a couple days, and a melody of my own eventually surfaces. Either that or I'm playing my guitar, and something just comes up.
As for finding a new process, my process is usually where I write the song and the music together at the same time, and I can't finish the song if I don't have music. But that's just me.
'aneniine' suggested a good thing: Doing a theme. That always helps!
If you're a beginner song writer, you may want to start with shorter songs, and then gradually move forward to longer songs as you get better, so it's not so overwhelming.
I don't know much about harmony... I don't have a band, so I can't tell you that one. Sorry.
But anyway. I hope that some of this helped.

Seeking New Pet Advice
Started 5 months ago · Last post 24 days ago ·
My first pet of my own was a Betta fish, I did a lot of research on him, and then I bought him. I can tell you what I know:
Never have more than one Betta Fish in a tank together, because Betta fish are known as Japanese fighting fish, and will attack any other fish that they find as a threat, or any fish that is bigger or prettier than your fish. (They will never attack you though, only other fish.)
You can feed them flakes or pellets that you buy at the store. Anything that says 'for tropical fish' on it. But I don't feed my fish flakes because it clouds the water. I feed him Pellets. Pellets are also better for him. You can also feed him freeez dried blood worms that you can buy at the pet store or sometimes at Wal*Mart.
If you have a small tank it should be cleaned once a week, but with a working aquarium that has a filter, you can clean it once or twice a month.
Betta fish like to have a lot of room to roam and places to hide. You probably shouldn't put your Betta fish in a tank smaller than 5 gallons. My fish loved me when I bought him a 5.5 gallon tank.
I wouldn't suggest putting live plants or anything along those lines in your tank, because every live seed or plant I tried to put in my fishes tank molded.
They like to be trained tricks, like follow your finger, and floating to the top of the tank when they see you with their food. My fish is a bit skittish, but I thought him those tricks. Eventually he forgot the follow the finger thing, but that's because I never kept up with it.
A cool thing to do is to hold a mirror in front of your Betta fish, and they will try to puff themselves up and look prettier. Don't hold it there for more than about a minute though, because it can stress out the fish.
If your fish gets bloated, boil a pea, and cut it in have too give it to your fish. That should help.
Anyway. I think that's about all of the kowlage I have on my Betta. I hope it helped!
I'll try and upload a photo of my fish with this post:
