Writing… just for the heck of it!

A re-post from the old struggling blog.

Writing… Just for the heck of it!
What a title! Did it catch your attention? I bet it did! If not, why did you reach this far? Honestly, it’s hard to start a topic especially when you don’t really have any idea in mind of what to write about. You [...]

What would make The Struggling Blogger happy?

What would make The Struggling Blogger happy?
Well, if you can deliver her to my doorstep, that’s a good start. But that would be impossible, right? And it’s not really the topic of this post. Admit it though, it got your attention.
So since you’re already “captured” why don’t you sit down, relax, and let’s continue discussing [...]

Challenge me to poetry – first list

As I was about to wrap up my guest posting marathon, I had an even crazier idea – that was to challenge myself in poetry. So I made an announcement in my Facebook profile, inviting all my friends to “Challenge me to poetry.”
I asked them to challenge me by giving me a word, phrase or [...]

Struggling all over the blogosphere

Because I said I will bury myself and immersed myself with words, verses and rhetoric, and my blogs seem to be not enough for me for the “burying process,” I had a crazy idea of guest posting in as many blogs as I can, given a specific period of time.
So I asked some of my [...]

A blogger can dream, can’t he?

At the start of 2009, I made a very bold statement when I included in my goals and plans for the year that I would receive a ‘real world’ blogging award. It was a shot in the dark. I do not know of any blogging awards, but I knew that with a big community such [...]

My FB status updates

Nothing personal against Twitter, but I seem to enjoy Facebook more lately and have made myself scarce in Twitterville. But I still drop by every now and then, I still remember dropping one-liners there before.
Facebook or FB, however, is just perfect for me. Aside from being reunited with friends and classmates from way back in [...]

Dead Poets Society: Carpe Diem!

When does one conform to what the norms dictate? And when does he need to stand up for what he believes in?
John Keating, the character played by Robin Williams in the movie Dead Poets Society, teaches his students in an unorthodox manner. Inspiring them to go after what their heart desire, even if it is [...]

Be Happy: Original Composition

When I am not spewing rants and gibberish thoughts on my blogs, or when I am not killing anyone in my short stories, waxing some poetic woes, shooting videos, or doing some doodles, I can be found strumming on the guitar, singing my blues away.
And most of the time, what I played on my guitar [...]

Yadayada! Ole-ole-oleo!

“Yadayada! Ole-ole-oleo!“
Doesn’t really make amy sense, does it? Well, because it was really meant NOT to make any sense, and most part of this post, even.
You know that feeling when you have nothing to say? Or you have so much to say, and yet you don’t know how to say it?
It usually happens under two [...]

My long lost doodle arts

I like to express myself through different medium – through poems, stories, pictures, music, cartwheel… err, scratch that last one. I’m a pound heavier to do cartwheel.
But there was a time that I used to draw too. I’m not really good at it, but I draw. My drawings were not ones that I can really [...]
