I made a post about keeping things simple. I mentioned there that overthinking and complicating things don’t produce anything at all. I also suggested that things should be a simple process that’s so easy to do. Yet here am I, disregarding all the things I wrote. Originally, I planned to post stories in a set … Continue reading Oh, the irony

Things don’t have to be complicated
Last week, I was thinking of practicing my writing. I had this idea for months, but never got the opportunity to do it. I already had a plan in mind. All I have to do is visit one subreddit, choose one topic, then write on a daily basis. It’s simple, right? Yes, but to me, … Continue reading Things don’t have to be complicated
Another Experiment
I noticed that I've been writing primarily in English in WordPress and most of my essays, stories and journal entries for the past few months. I want to change that. I believe that would be a good idea for me to get in touch with my roots as a Filipino. Living in the Philippines, people … Continue reading Another Experiment
‘The Paper’
The last quarter of every grade level has always been stressful and mine was no exception. In the final two weeks of the last quarter of Grade 8, my friends and I arrive at school with baggy bloodshot eyes as we push ourselves completing our yearly clearance. The deadlines were creeping, quizzes were alarming, and … Continue reading ‘The Paper’
i blanked out
I thought of something to write about today, but it went pass over my head. I knew I should've written it down when I thought about it. I believed that it was a good one too. That's just sad. Anyways, I've got to fill up my daily quota of one post per day. I've been … Continue reading i blanked out
The things you do for content everyday.
I’ve been posting consistently for the past 15 days already. There was engagement but now it lessened. Kinda sad but that’s okay. It wasn’t my intention anyway. My real intention is to practice consistency. I’ve been trying to dish out content for other platforms as well. It’s not all about writing but also about small … Continue reading The things you do for content everyday.
Cleaning
Cleaning is a delight. The same way with writing. It lightens up my soul when things are organized and neat. Everything is in order and in reach. Cleaning for me is taking control in an uncontrollable world. It is my tool for staying grounded and patient. It is satisfying when it’s done. It gives me … Continue reading Cleaning
Skill Envy
I read a short story some time ago. It was written by an ‘amateur.’ Is that person really though? I don’t know. But, that person was incredibly good at making stories. The sceneries were so vivid. The dialogues were crisp. I could only hope to do the same. Well, I’ll reach that point someday. I … Continue reading Skill Envy
Writing is one of the instruments to heal the soul.
When I am writing. My inner being is at peace. I don’t care if my writing makes sense or not. If words are placed in a blank page or paper. The stress and tension slowly decrease but never gone. When I write it’s a peaceful time. Well… Aside from schoolworks though. Anyway, it’s like a … Continue reading Writing is one of the instruments to heal the soul.
Starting something you’re not good at sucks.
I’ll make a painting. Oh man, it doesn’t look good. I guess painting isn’t for me. I’ll answer this coding problem. Oh man, this is too hard. I guess competitive programming isn’t for me. I’ll write my own story. Oh man, this story is too shitty and boring! I guess I’m not cut out to … Continue reading Starting something you’re not good at sucks.
