Haven't been

blogging lately. As obvious. I just feel so tired all the time. I actually opened this account just so I could try to wake up. Oh, and I'm hungry. Have to remind myself to tell girlfriend my hungry tummy is craving for some Purefoods pork and beans. And a Hungarian sausage. If you could throw in a couple of chips or some bread roll, it would all make for a nice English breakfast. I wi...

By Friedrich Nietzsche

1. People who have given us their complete confidence believe that they have a right to ours. The inference is false, a gift confers no rights.2. He that humbleth himself wishes to be exalted.3. The surest way to corrupt a youth is to instruct him to hold in higher esteem those who think alike than those who think differently.4. There are no facts, only interpretations.5. Morality is but the herd-instinct...

Was browsing

the web earlier (as always) and realized just about how many people took the 30 day photography challenge and I thought "Hey, how come I've never seen/heard of a 30 day writing challenge?" So I Googled it, and found this: 30 day writing challenge: Day 1 —Select a book at random in the room. Find a novel or short story, copy down the last sentence and use this line as the first line of your new story. Day...

Created a

new board on Pinterest. The sewing board, as shown here: I learned how to sew shorts and shirts and wallets when I was in grade/high school. And now that I cannot find any reasonably priced skirts around (thrift shops never always seem to have one I like/in my size), I decided I wanted to make a...

i don't

feel really good today. Girlfriend did a pretty quick check up on me and said I was low in iron. Well, I have had my period for 4 days now and have not had a really good night's sleep. She told me I should take the Iberet I have in my pill case. But I'm a stubborn prick who doesn't really like taking in any kind of meds... except the ones that make you fall asleep (shh). Although I think I really...

"Love is about grand gestures. Love is about airplanes pulling banners over stadiums, proposals on jumbo-trons, giant words in skywriting. Love is about going that extra mile, even if it hurts, letting it all hang out there. Love is about finding courage inside of you that you didn't even know was there." - Little Manhat...

Clocked in

at 8.37 today. My shift starts at 10 and I was way too early. I woke up at 7.30 a.m. and I couldn't go back to sleep in the afternoon and it was already getting dark out and I got scared I'd be late the first day of the week so instead of having another go at trying to sleep, I went to work early. It...

Word.

"If someone can talk you out of being a writer, you're not a writer. If I can talk you out of being a writer, I've done you a favor, because now you'll be free to pursue your real talent, whatever that may be. And, for the record, everybody has one. The lucky ones figure out what that is. The unlucky ones keep on writing shitty screenplays and asking me to read them." - I Will Not Read Your Fucking...

"And if my heart isn't in my mouth It's because it knows its place" - First Person Deconstructive really nice lines from a really nice post I got from another blogger who also doesn't know who wrote this. but here's the entire po...

I think the reason

why twentysomethings are so fixated on age is because we feel a pressure to be a certain way at 23, at 25, at 29. There are all of these invisible deadlines with our careers and with love and drinking and drugs. I can’t do coke at 25. I need to be in a LTR at 27. I can’t vomit from drinking at 26. I just can’t! We feel so much guilt for essentially acting our age and making mistakes. We’re obsessed...

I found

myself writing your name today. Over and over until the words and the letters and all the little dots poured out, slowly, toppling over the edges. I wanted to keep you inside, to hold you down. I wanted to box you in as a gift, for myself. I wanted to have you within an arm's reach, always there, always ready. I would hold you more and more, tighter and tighter everyday. I won't let you go, I can't,...
