Because We All Have To Start From Somewhere.

To be honest, sometimes I don't know why I even bother- you know, making things such as blogs. I never really valued the idea of showing you're thoughts to the world wide web. I always find owning blogs a bit of nuisance. Let's just say, I'm the writer of solitude type. I'm not exactly comfortable with people actually viewing what I write. I never liked it when people would snoop through my journal. And I get squeamish whenever someone reads my writing in front of me. I'm one of those people who find writing about themselves a little bit- no scratch that- too narcissistic. I'd rather keep the  thoughts that go round in my head to myself and actually make use of those unused overflowing pile of notebooks that I have at home- early signs of being a horder I know. Which is why I need to curve this habit of consuming notebooks. [But I can't help it. They're just so pretty.]

So again, my practical thinking asks me, Why? In the first place, A blog is like a biography or autobiography. No one would really bother to pick up that biography of someone unless you were the current president of the United States or a famous Oscar nominated actor-etc.etc.  I've never done anything great. Heck, In the song Don't Rain on My Parade, I'm definitely just "A freckle on the nose of life's complexion"  So why would anyone even bother to read about my opinions? I'm just a young Filipina & artist - girl who going on this life changing journey that's still very much having trouble figuring who she is and what she wants in life. Its a been there seen that kind of plot. So why bother?

But like I have mentioned, I'm an artist at heart. There will always be this side of me that will want to express myself whatever way possible. And most of the time, that artist self of mine always seems to get that inspiration to start something- and wins over that practical side of me. Especially after this long break from school, I have recently been hit by this massive big wall of inspiration. Or its like my dormant muse, who I thought had finally retired had decided to come back from vacation, and has finally given me some creative juices to actually start being creative. or doing all the other things I love again. For me; whenever you do get this surge of inspiration, don't you feel like you just want to shout it out to the whole world?

So there. I guess that sort of explains why I wanted to start my own blog. To take a break from being the self contained, brooding writer in the lone corner and live life a little bit more. However, that's still not going to change my geekish/dorkish ways.

I'll end this introductory post here. What do they say when they say goodbye on blogs- GTG, Sayonara, Adios, TTFN?

Yeah... This will definitely take some getting used to.
