- Living my y/n life
Sometimes I like to put on my headphones, listen to music, and put myself in different scenarios. Sometimes, I'm kicking butt and other times butt is kicking me. Whatever it is, it's fun; It takes my mind off of this mess of a world, and gives me a little comfort.

- When you get to know me
You might think I am responsible, mature, whatever it is at first, but when you get to know me, oh you are not gonna believe it. Oh you might think whatever I am, but if I get to know you and you get to know me like in friends or friends AND enemies, you're going to see my crazy side. Well, what I mean crazy is not killing people or doing any stuff like that. Well you can ask one of my friends about it. I always joke around and kind of like... laugh. I don't know why though. So yeah.

- Why you shouldn't lose a pen
Don't ever lose a pen, here's why: No pen = no notes, no notes = no study, no study = no graduation, no graduation = no money, no money = no food, no food = your tummy hurts, your tummy hurts = you're sick, you're sick but you don't have money = you die. So don't lose a pen. (This is just for a joke, don't take it seriously. You can buy another pen if you lose one. I lose like a thousand pens already).

- Little typing tip
I know what you're feeling right now. Frustrated, stressed, anxious, etc. I know every single feeling you have when you're doing this. I know you just want a peaceful typing test without making mistakes. But I know that you know that this is not possible. At least, for you and me. And being frustrated negatively affects my typing speed. So this is a tip for you. When you're in this situation, take a breath, walk outside, drink water, take a shower, or all the things that calm you down.
Absolutely no one
- A practice
The basics of life is to live and not die as much as you can. Look at the animals they hunt to live and sleep, and they can't anymore they just die. I hope you sleep well tonight. Nothing matters. Live in the moment. Don't worry about your future.
Fredrik Backman
- Beartown
There are few words that are harder to explain than "loyalty." It's always regarded as a positive characteristic, because a lot of people would say that many of the best things people do for each other occur precisely because of loyalty. The only problem is that many of the very worst things we do to each other occur because of the same thing.

- Practice: Question Marks
Hello again. Who are you? Why don't you type correctly? What is keeping you from using the right finger? Don't you know you're suppose to use your pinky finger? How come you only use your middle finger? For a question mark? Heck no? Was that not a question? That "Heck no" one? Who knows? Do you think this is a good practice?
Blake
- Practice: Periods
Hello Blake. I hope you are having a good day. This quote is here. To help you. Practice periods. If you haven't. caught on already. Hahaha. That was so funny wasn't it. I know, it really was. But basically, I'm trying to put. As many periods in this practice quote. So you can practice. Using your ring finger. To tap the period. Instead of your middle finger. That being said, here's some repetitious practice for that muscle memory. there. were. so. many. periods. in. this. paragraph.

Sometimes I wonder what would have happened if on that particular day, because of too much caffeine or a side effect of some medication he might have taken earlier or simply nerves, Major General Peter Young's hand had shaken just a trifle... Would the border have shifted a fraction of an inch up or down, inserting here, deleting there, and if so, might this involuntary change have affected my fate or that of my relatives?

- The Island of Missing Trees
But no matter what kind of trouble it may be going through, a tree always knows that it is linked to endless life forms - from honey fungus, the largest living thing, down to the smallest bacteria and archaea - and that its existence is not an isolated happenstance but intrinsic to a wider community. Even trees of different species show solidarity with one another regardless of their differences, which is more than you can say for so many humans.

- Sabrina
Once upon a time, on the north shore of Long Island, not far from New York, there was a very, very large mansion, almost a castle. And on this very large estate lived a small girl. And life was pleasant there and very, very simple. But, then one day, the girl grew up and went beyond the walls of the grounds and found the world.

- Wait I can write Quotes too?
Today I discovered that some quotes on this site were from random people talking about their daily lives and stuff. The nail in the coffin for me was the guy that was talking about how he liked to type on this site. Then I looked closely and saw that I can write quotes too. So here is my first of many quotes to come enjoy!
The Cat Empire
- Our Allies - The Chariot
And our allies grew wherever we would roam, see whenever we're together any stranger feel at home. In a way we are an army, but this army not destruct. No, instead we're doing simple things. Good loving, find it, run amuck.
Neil Gaiman
- A Game of You
In the pale light of the Moon I play the game of you. Whoever I am. Whoever you are. All sense of where I am, of who I am and where I'm going, has been swallowed by the dark. And I walk through the stars and sky... a trinity of dreams beneath the moon.

- You'll get better
You'll get better. Sure, it won't be today or tomorrow, but you will get better as long as you put in the time to practice on your typing. Personally, it took me a long time practicing so that I can type 50 wpm, and I think it'll take me more time to reach 60.
From a fellow typist
- Stop taking it personally
Anyone getting offended about typists "attacking" long quotes need to stop taking things so personally. Don't act like you are better for actually loving longer quotes. Some of us don't want to practice. Some of us just like the feeling of typing and find it satisfying.

- Delayed gratification
Do you do whatever you want? Do you watch movies and shows every day? Do you delay useful stuff that you need to do, and instead get busy with something "fun"? Then, my friend, you need to know about delayed gratification vs. instant gratification. Ask yourself, before getting busy with any work, is it useful? Does it require active focus or passive focus? What are the gratifications I would get from this? And for each day, make a reasonable balance between the two types. Stay useful my friend.

- The Stamina of Elite Oarsmen
Men as fit as you, when your everyday strength is gone, can draw on a mysterious reservoir of power far greater. Then it is that you can reach for the stars. That is the way champions are made.
Diane Mitts
- Muscle Memory
What really helped me improve my typing speed is focusing more on accuracy. The more I type correctly, it builds up my "muscle memory" to the point that I don't have to look at my fingers to make sure they are properly placed! That in turn helps my SPEED!
