It's been around a month since I started school again and yes, due to my love of procrastination, i'm making this post a month late :') but better late than never! So here it is guys!

The Scorch Trials: Expectations and Actual Storyline

After reading The Maze Runner, I completely feel in love with the book and the characters that I think it's best to say that this is one of the best fiction story i've ever read, it was a very well-written story by James Dashner, which I have wrote a book review on it which you guys can read it here, and what I love most about it is that every chapter brings a brilliant twist that it makes us wander what will happen in the next chapter.

So I began reading The Scorch Trials soon after I finished reading The Maze Runner, the ending of the book one was somewhat of a cliffhanger as it ended with Thomas and the gang escaping from WICKED and being rescued by strangers that warned them about the Flare that has spread throughout parts of the world.

WARNING: Spoiler alert!

Vocabulary Expansion Thanks to John Green

So here are a few words that I find stumbling again and again on most passage when I read TFIOS and Paper Towns, I had such a good read of it that I thought i'll share on the internet of how much that i've learned of new words from reading those two books, so without further ado, here are the words that the definitions are from the internet vocabulary that I played the words using my brain! lol, enjoy!

Against the Common Flow

Everyone is their own individuality

One may seem alike to another

but,

a single trait or more can define them apart

Being different can often be misunderstood by most people. Being different can sometime lead us to seclusion from the common. Being different takes up a lot of bravery from the inside, and being brave is being confident with taking a road that we believe in, even though it is different from everyone else.

That road isn't going to be easy. That road isn't always gonna give us applause from other people because we choose to be daring. That road isn't always gonna smooth but, if that road is the road that you truly feel that it is best for yourself,

Then go for it.

That is all from me, hope you guys will enjoy this mini post about motivation and remember! Uniqueness and being genuine is very rare these days, don't let society dim your spark!
