Hello everyone! It’s me again! I will be writing about when I started writing and why I love it so much! Well, writing for me is one of the best things in life. I can say that because it has always been around since I was still in grade school. I don’t know how everything started but I remembered I was in my second grade when I started writing. It was a diary at first. When we were still there in our old house, I remembered reading one of my first diaries and it is just so funny and amazing that those piece of writing works like a time machine that could let you travel back to that specific time. Some memories may have been forgotten by your brain and it just amazes you that you never imagined how things happened on that day. That’s what I love most about having a diary.

And eventually, after writing diaries, I started writing short stories and poems. I can even remember when I was in high school, our teacher let us write poems for our English class and, I guess, my teacher liked the poem that I made because she had it published in the school paper. I was so happy that I was able to make my parents proud (because they were able to read it in the school paper).
Also, one memory I can remember, that was when we were still in our fourth year in high school, our teacher gave us a project for the fourth grading. She let us make an autobiography. And, when it was already time for us to pass our works, mine was the thickest of all. Haha. :D Our teacher only required us to have a minimum of 75 pages but mine went to 230+ pages! I got carried away, I guess. The title of that novel that I wrote was “There’s a rainbow always after the rain”.
Our teacher promised us that she will just return those novels we wrote after she checked it but until now, they were not returned to us. I wish I could still get that back.
WHY I LOVE WRITING?
Well, I have a couple of things I love about it. And before I tell you those, let me just share you to this video. This is a video of Accio Ace via Youtube.
I CAN WRITE WHAT I CAN'T SAY.

When I was in grade school and my high school days, and yes, even in college, I am really an introvert person. I am someone who will just be there at the back and just staring at other people and watching what they do. I don’t really talk much. I just love observing them. I don’t share much of my thoughts to other people. And what helped me let those out? It was a form of writing. I could write what I can’t say and what I have been hiding inside. I remembered when I was in college, I had a crush and he is my classmate. He sat in the left side of the seats in the row in front of me. So, I can really see him when I turn my head a little. And when he is on his side view, my eyes will really turn into hearts because his nose are just so attractive. So, instead of listening to the teacher, I’d be there, staring at him and writing about him in my notebook. :D He doesn’t know I had a crush on him. Only my notebook knew about that. :D
I have a poem here that I found in my notebook. HAHA :D One of those poems I was writing when I was just sitting there, staring at him.
Gazillion times I look at you,
In every second, you’d let me turn my head
To just stare and gaze at you.
I tried to look at other guys
And then, look at you again
And I could only feel that “spark” in you.
When I stared at you and you caught me
I would just turn my head away
So you wouldn’t notice it.
Keeping this feeling to myself
For I know, letting it known
Wouldn’t even make a difference.
I like you
But you feel the same way to her
What a TRAGEDY, indeed!
This poem was actually written way back 2014. That was 3 years ago. :D I was writing it like this :D A little smiling while staring at him.

IT STANDS AS MY COMFORT ZONE.

I was one of those bullied kids when I was still in grade school and high school because I am small. They always make fun of me because I am always the first one in the line when we have flag ceremony. They laugh at me because I have a very high-pitched voice. And as a kid, that hurts a lot. I don’t really tell them how I feel. I will just cry. And whenever I get home, I get my notebook and my pen and I start writing about my day and what I feel that day. I consider it as my best friend because I can write anything I want without anybody judging me.
IT RELEASES STRESS.

Different people have different ways of relasing stress. Others do it with yoga, they do jogging, dancing, and stuff like that. As of me, whenever I get stressed out, I just grab my ball pen and my notebook and when I start to write, everything just go well. Because whenever I write, I can throw the emotions in it. It seems to me like a vacuum cleaner. It gets all the stress away. :D
Here are some of the poems I wrote that I want to share to you.
North winds blew, birds on the sky they flew,
Here I am, waiting for you.
In the coldness of night,
This loneliness I fight.
For someday, somehow, I know you’d come
And happy I’ll become
‘Coz you’d paint smiles on my face
And would be locked into my life’s maze.
‘Till then I will wait
And hold tighter to my faith
‘Coz when God bring us both together,
I know we’ll be happy forever.

DISTANCE <3
Eight thousand four-hundred sixty four miles
That's how our distance counts
Would it be a coincidence or destiny
That I met you halfway?
Don't actually know what's happening
But the thought of you, to me is haunting
Thinking that somewhere, somehow,
You are thinking about me too.
I wonder how my heart connects to you
And I really find it weird, too.
That even after the hindrance of distance,
I am feeling this feeling for you.
Seems like a magical thing happened
Because the moment we talked,
You started to paint smiles on my face
Like no one has ever did
Don't really know where this would go
Don't know when this will be over, too
But one thing I would just wish,
I hope I could keep you forever :)
