As a frequent Twitter user, I enjoy checking the trending topics. They let me know what people are thinking about and talking about so that I can write articles that many people will want to read. Many of the topics that I have seen have inspired some ideas.
One topic that has trended on Twitter is #SomethingISayALot. This topic got me thinking about expressions that I often use, such as “Better out than in”, which is featured in the Shrek movies. It also made me think of other things that I often say, such as “I need some beauty sleep.” In addition to this topic, I have also seen other topics on Twitter.
Another topic that I saw trending on this popular site is #pens. This topic made me think of Back-to-School season. It also reminded me to stock up on pens, since I often use them for writing if I am away from my computer. There is also one other topic that has trended on Twitter that has helped to break my writer’s block: #IThankGodFor.
When I saw this topic, I thought of everything in my life that I am grateful for. For instance, I am thankful for my family, my friends, and my health. I am also thankful for my house, for the sites that I write for, and for modern conveniences, such as electricity. In addition to the topics that I have seen on this social networking site, there are other topics that I would like to see there.
One thing that I have not yet seen on Twitter is #PinkTickets. Pink is currently touring, and she is scheduled to be in my area in November. I would like to go to this concert, but it is not likely that I will be able to afford tickets. Perhaps my local radio station will hold a contest that will give listeners a chance to win tickets to the show. If this happens, there is a chance that my wish will come true. I will then get to hear some great music. In addition to finding out about concert tickets on Twitter, there are other things that I would like to learn about there, as well.
A second thing that I would like to see there is #WinALaptop. My laptop is still functional. However, according to the technician who looked at it recently, the part that allows it to connect to the Internet is apparently burned out. A new computer would allow me to do everything that I love to do. For instance, I could publish articles online, keep up with my friends’ birthdays and special events, check my email, and listen to my favorite music. It is unlikely that I will ever see a trending topic like this. If I am patient, however, I might eventually get enough money to replace my computer.
By continuing to use Twitter, perhaps I will see some of the topics that I would like to see there. I might also see other topics that I have not even thought of but that I would enjoy. I can then hopefully avoid writer’s block, which will allow me to keep doing what I love.
