Introduction

Hi there!

I'm new to Tumblr, so we'll see how well everything goes here...

My name is Pema and my pronouns are they/them. I'm from Sweden, but I speak five different languages, but definitely not all of them equally well.

I speak:

Swedish (native)

English (C2)

Norwegian (Nynorsk & Jærsk) (~B2)

Jamaican Patois (B1)

Sranantongo (A2~)

I'm also learning Tibetan and Japanese, but I've put them on hold for a while.

My favourite things to do are writing and reading all kinds of literature, but I mainly write poetry, playing and writing (mainly classical) music, playing videogames and looking at art. I sometimes draw abstract art myself, as you can see on my profile picture, so I'm open to any kind of style in all art forms!

My favourite video games are Syberia, Jade Empire, the Legend of Zelda series, the Pokémon series and the Mario games.

I'll mainly use this platform to share my art and writing, but probably also to discuss games and practice all of my languages.

I'm very glad to be here and I hope you all enjoy what I post! Feel free to ask me anything and to give comments on what I post; everything except for hate is encouraged here!

Sincerely, and with a hopeful smile to all

Pema <3

hey hey guys. if anyone wants any reblogs on their writing, reblog this with a link to your snippets!

if you have a master post of them all in chronological order, that would be amazing. But any way works!

my queue is running low and I'd love to reblog more of your stories!!

[poetry-nerd]

A lot of my works are on my Tumblr page. :)

[poetry-nerd]

Sorry for not posting for a couple of days! I'm busy in a musical for the time being, but I hope to be back again soon!

hello writeblr !! i wanna take a sec to let people celebrate their own writing, so reblog this with a line you’ve written (from a wip, or just something random that came to you) that you’re proud of !!

[poetry-nerd]

I feel so tired just like I am dead

I love it so much because it's literally me every day 😭

[writeblrsupport]

This is for the writers who feel like they don't write enough- because of jobs, because of exams and school, college, university and all that jazz. You are valid, what makes you a writer is that you love to create characters, plots and the like. It doesn't matter how much you manage to write. It's about the joy of creation and the comfort of knowing that this is all a part of you.

Your wips can and will wait if they have to. Don't stress yourselves out. Do what's important, take care of yourselves.

You are worthy.

You are valid

You are loved

Small life update

I recently started playing Metro: 2033 on my Nintendo Switch and I like it so much I bought the book, but it turned out my mum already had the book, so I went back to the book shop and got the book Metro: 2034 instead. It's the first time I read/play something like this, but I really enjoy this post-apocalyptic storytelling!

Lovingly signed

Sonnet on tiredness

I feel so tired just like I am dead

Just want to sleep and rest forever now

I really want to see my sweet, sweet bed

My sweet, sweet bed is to whom I will bow

My tiredness is eating me alive

It will not stop until it can consume

My whole existance; it will only thrive

The tiredness will keep itself in bloom

It may be strong, I may be weak today

I hope it will not take me over soon

The tiredness just makes my mind so grey

It lasts as long as I can see the moon

I really want it to be gone for good

But do you think it really would and could?

New Things to Beware on the Internet

On May 3rd, Google released 8 new top-level domains (TLDs) -- these are new values like .com, .org, .biz, domain names. These new TLDs were made available for public registration via any domain registrar on May 10th.

Usually, this should be a cool info, move on with your life and largely ignore it moment.

Except a couple of these new domain names are common file type extensions: ".zip" and ".mov".

This means typing out a file name could resolve into a link that takes you to one of these new URLs, whether it's in an email, on your tumblr blog post, a tweet, or in file explorer on your desktop.

What was previously plain text could now resolve as link and go to a malicious website where people are expecting to go to a file and therefore download malware without realizing it.

Folk monitoring these new domain registrations are already seeing some clearly malicious actors registering and setting this up. Some are squatting the domain names trying to point out what a bad idea this was. Some already trying to steal your login in credentials and personal info.

This is what we're seeing only 12 days into the domains being available. Only 5 days being publicly available.

What can you do? For now, be very careful where you type in .zip or .mov, watch what website URLs you're on, don't enable automatic downloads, be very careful when visiting any site on these new domains, and do not type in file names without spaces or other interrupters.

I'm seeing security officers for companies talking about wholesale blocking .zip and .mov domains from within the company's internet, and that's probably wise.

Be cautious out there.

[poetry-nerd]

I started planning a novel because I felt like it, and I hope I can actually finish this one because I really like it!

More poems coming up, though, and I'm also going to start posting short stories soon! I hope you all will like them. :D

Can't let British people have air conditioning because first they'd call it something twee like "the climate fixer" and then in 20 years they'll call it "the climb" or "the climmy"

[dreg-heap]

French kids would call it "le climot", frustrating language officials who would prefer they call it "machine pour le contrôle du climat froide à l'interieure de l'édifice"

Disappearing

Flying away...

Where

Am

I

Going

I don't even know

Colours everywhere

Shapes

Where

Am

I

Going

Everything is a mess

My mind

It doesn't work

I don't understand

Am I moving?

Where

Am

I

Going

Ett minne

Jag älskar ju att göra dig till min.

I kärleken så finns det alltid nå’t,

Som gör att jag till slut visst kan bli din.

Men när du endast blir ett minne blott,

Så gör min längtan allting evigt grått.

Du är den enda som jag nu vill ha.

Visst kunde jag för länge se’n dig fått?

Nu kommer jag väl aldrig att må bra.

Min glädje var då endast att förta,

Ty det du gjorde mig var inte snällt.

Jag kände endast för att återta

Allting inom mig som du hade fällt.

I livet hade jag nog inget mer

Än döden som snart skulle dra mig ner.

Vinden

Vinden

Jag önskar att jag var ett löv

Vinden

Flygande runt i luften

Vinden

Den bär mig och gör mig fri

Vinden

Vad skulle jag göra utan dig?

My work (yet again just thought this was fun)

And so the story is called “In a Different Light”, taking place in the Ethros Empire (A fantasy version of many empires, such as the Holy Roman Empire, combined). The main character, Leopold, is a prince, second to the crown. This he finds unfair, as he is the oldest brother, but it is called ‘righteous’ by his father and others as he is an illegitimate child. And so his goal throughout the beginning of the story is to find a way to become first to the crown, to be the greatest ruler his empire has seen, and one of the solutions is to kill his brother, Wilhelm.

His brother is your average child, and it’s ironic how he avoids all responsibility and longs for an easy life with his friends.

Going back to the main conflict, Leopold reached out to a guild, asking them for information on the crown prince, so he can figure out the way to kill him without getting his hands all too dirty. Though upon the request, he is asked to meet with the guild leader as the missions will be costly.

After many random adventures between Leopold, Marativer (the leader of the guild), and friends he makes along the way, Leopold begins to realize some things. One of the things being that he may not want to kill his brother. That his brother is kind and caring, but doesn’t even find himself fit as ruler. Sure, everything begins to fall into place as a happy ending where everybody gets what they want, but little do they know there is a subplot, where villains run a-mock.

How they solve this is the real question everyone has in the end, but that I won’t reveal. You’re gonna have to wait till I write the whole thing. :)

I hope you liked the idea btw, worked hard on this over the course of a few months.

This is amazing!!!!

Boat trip

Into the sea

On my small boat

I'm travelling to thee

Even without a note

I can't wait to see

The one big moat

The one which is free

And where anyone can float

Float away into thee

In with my old boat
