Preparing For Take-Off

April 19, 2008

I’m officially starting this blog on this entry. I’ve wanted to start three years ago when the buzz over this new trend in cyberspace came up. Unfortunately, I was too lazy to even make an account. When finally, I made my first one on blogspot, I didn’t know what to write. Or if I did, I was at loss for words. Most of the time, I just stared on the screen, waiting for the muses’ whispers, for inspiration that never came. I still have these problems until now, but I guess I will never be able to start unless I start typing these words down.

The constant urging of a good friend (more or less) inspired me to finally start this thing. I had previous entries before but those were requirements. I can’t say I didn’t like writing those—but those were requirements, acads, I guess you get the point. Well, my friend, my writing partner in class a year ago is so into blogging, I think he’s even obsessed. I can’t figure out where he gets his ideas, how he can write so many entries and even manage more than one blog at a time. Well, he likes writing a lot. I think I do too, but I’m too lazy to rack my brain for ideas so I just sit on the bench and stare at the wall, or text people to text me, or play Nature Park on my phone, or eat. Pathetic, I know. But that’s why I’m writing now. My mom said that I should just write and write even if I don’t know where I am heading to. And so I will.
