Random Thoughts on Writing

I never  had imagined myself to be writing entries such as this one. Looking back on my high school days, I never loved writing. I was more of a reader than neither a writer nor a storyteller. I abhor writing assignments, though there was one particular subject that I really loved, even though it practically involved a lot of writing and writing.

When did I start to like writing? Perhaps that was when I got a fairly high grade for a final paper, even if I was not that confident on my writing skills. Although, I had already grown the fondness of writing poems and other short non formal write ups. Then I started to write journals as a means of pouring out what I cannot easily express verbally. Good university literary writers also at some point inspired me to read more, of their own compositions and of other good reads. Then I started digging for more articles or books, which eventually somehow influenced my writing style.

Since I was exposed to magazines and short stories, I kinda write without proper English measurement. Most of the time, when I reread some of the articles I made, it felt like I was really talking out loud! When computers were made available to almost anybody, and through internet (thank God for the brilliant minds who made internet!), I have developed that laziness to write using a clean sheet of paper and pen. That was the time I started blogging. And I still to date. Of everything and anything under the sky. May it bring happiness or an itch of what reality means. Uhm, I wonder how Dennis C Carey  writes? He’s got his own blog in wordpress and its winning more readers each time. He’s more of a technical writer though. I go for ranting!
