I have been so consistent for this past few weeks, one post per week. Well to be honest, its hard to keep up with it cos sometimes you just don't have anything in mind, let alone write it down virtually. For the past 3 weeks, I have been writing about things I've been doing, I have done or simply just personal thoughts and opinion. I've been so busy this week since the classes started on Monday and it has been super tense since then. But I really need to write and post something.
I have been writing a blog since I was in middle high school. I wrote some trash relating to my days, gloomy days, boys I liked and so on, so on. Then there was a time when Tumblr was so hype so I jumped there as well. But then at the end of my high school years, I decided to delete my Tumblr page (which by that time had reached about more than 100 posts) because I thought it was turning into something so personal and it felt so unoriginal.
I started this page on February 2014 but I haven't really organised and posted regularly, simply because I'm kinda losing my interest on writing for the past few years. Going back from the roots, I was born in a family whom all the members like to wrote. My dad submitted some writings to a local newspaper regularly, criticising the government or simply just making comments about anything. My mum, well, she writes at work but not as a hobby, and my sister isn't so much of a writer. I, on the other hand, have always had something for writing.
In middle school, I was so poetic. I wrote a lot of poems. This happened until high school, even until the first 2 years of Uni. They weren't so good but I just loved doing it. Then I just stopped. I came back to the old version of writing: diaries.
But then in early 2014, I thought that I wanted to start blogging again, for the sake of my sanity. I have always been that type of person who has a lot of friends but only have a handful of them as those people I could rely on. Having this blog and having this sort of sanctuary for me to put every single thoughts and complains about the world. Another word, this blog is the only way I could whine without looking too weak.
For those of you who love to write but doubt their own writings, just keep on writing cos its for yourself. You do it not to please anyone but to please yourself.
Writing is like a yoga for me, it keeps me calm and it helps me channeling my emotion, the bad and the good ones. When I took a hiatus from writing couple years ago, I realised that I got angry easily and sometimes I just felt empty in all of the sudden. I like it. Correction: I love it.
Anyway, I'm writing this post right now so that I don't miss this week's routine. as I have mentioned earlier on this post: I have been very consistent. LOL
Til we meet again.
