Blog Back

I'm blogged back in!

I was convinced this morning to bring on back those writing chaps (if any), to touch those keys, to move those neurons, and restart posting blogs. It's a bit awkward to do this all over again and I don't know where to begin, so I started rereading those old posts, and surprisingly I was pretty amazed (flabbergasted maybe) on what I have been writing before. It's funny. It's poignant. And most of the time, it's stupid. But hey, I'm still the same: funny, poignant, stupid. It's also nice to know that there are people reading your blogs. Humility aside, I always thought that I'm just doing this for myself.

I used to keep a lot of blog sites and I will still be keeping them for memento's sakes. Feel free to check them out in Burp If You Must (Friendster) and The World is A++ Subway (Blogspot). It's been 4 years since I have been doing this and kinda realized that I could have earned if I took this seriously. I'm still not taking this seriously though, but earning money is a welcome. My first blog way back in July 1, 2005 was coincidentally about getting back on something. And since I really have nothing in mind to write about and this one aptly explains my current state of being, so here you go. Chap, chap.

Back to the WEB

Welcome, space! The things that I do right now are (fill in the blank). I really don’t know what I have been doing right now. All I know is that I missed Iloilo, the urban niche, where I can get private! I am here in Dumaguete City, trying to thrive on greener pasteur (take it literally!). Working is tough, but I have been enjoying. The fruits will be soon ripe…. It’s all a matter of patience.

This is the time when I am experiencing the longest days of my lives. When listening to "melancholy and infinite sadness" songs has become an everyday ritual rather than a emo-pasttime. This is the time when I look for mementos of my teenage past, my non-working days, my has-all-the-time-and-energy-but-no-money-era and dwell on them and eventually become emotional. Gone were the days of my gig-jumping, my NU-in-the-morning, and my days of being wild. This will be a long one, and my patience is running out…

I’m 20 and I am dying to die… (kidding!). It’s almost a decade when I was 19. And the fun is still ‘half-empty.’

Read me, I am dying for attention. And the things that I will be doing later are (fill in the blank). Patria-Adorada, region del sol….
