Strikes On The Notepad.

My thoughts about the MMA assembly I went to, Math and my blog layout. This is “Strikes On The Notepad”, wherein I dish out some random thoughts through striking my second weapon of choice [the pen] on my notepad.

First strike.

In the afternoon, I was at the SDA building’s museum, sticking my butt on one of the seats there and had a little catch with my block mates. With my fellow course mates, we listen to the professors and track heads’ advices on how to survive on our one-of-a-kind course.

I believe that beneath the building’s breath-taking voids are the big challenges for me to face. That would be mountains of projects to work on and strict professors to confront on eye-to-eye. And the gorgeous ladies that are going to distract me while I’m focusing on my studies.

Omit the last statement. At the time I sat, I saw this curly-haired girl - with a big strawberry illustration at the back of her shirt - sitting on the first row. With just one look at her, she really made my day for she was the girl I’m crazy over these past few weeks. Continue reading ‘Strikes On The Notepad.’

The White Room.

Are you the kind of individual that loves surprises? You love to get shocked? Even if it’s your love bird’s sudden decision of breaking up with you or Sadako and Freddy Krueger sleeping beside you in your bed? Well, then.

Welcome to The White Room, one of The Hell Bent’s special voids in his sacred sanctuary. Since you love surprises, just stay right where you’re standing and wait for what’s in store for you. What are they? Why should I tell you? That’s why it’s called surprises!

Take a deep breathe. Relax. Wait for the next scenes. Let the next scenes explain what the White Room really is. Continue reading ‘The White Room.’

12 Left Undone.

1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 12 drafts.

Whenever I click “Write” on the dashboard’s navigation panel, I see this… My Drafts. Hands are sprouting from the letters that made each of the posts’ titles, scratching the letter’s curves and straight lines. They are wondering when I will pay attention to them and finish the posts already.

A few of them were written months ago and up until now, I still can’t get the right words to add the finishing touches to it. Compare me to a financially broke painter who runs out of acrylic paint while he’s in the middle of working on his master piece.

Or maybe I got lazy finishing it.

The bottom line is… Those 12 unfinished works became fiction books that would just collect dust and spider webs on the shelves. In the middle of reading, the owner’s eyeballs got tired of dancing with the figurative paragraphs written by the author, putting back the thick reading material back to where it rests.

I may not finish those 12, but I feel not deleting them. That’s because I think I may use some of the words, phrases, sentences or paragraphs in the near future. It may feed my brain and heart with the knowledge and wisdom that I could apply in writing and even in everyday life. So, better keep it in the drafts.

Writing is an unusual yet effective way to realize one’s mistakes. With realizing our failures, lessons are learned. Some obnoxious and stupid sentence may be seen on my blog, but I know well that it can make sense someday. I also know that I’m going to regret writing them but still I have the balls to showcase it on my blog.

I also get to see myself through the words encrypted on each blog post. And within reading them, I knew that something is wrong with me. Either I’m having a psychological disorder or maybe I just have an unorthodox use of language. What do you think?

Or maybe I can finish them at all. Not just now, though.

The hell I care. I’ll just hit “Publish” right now. I don’t want to make this post the 13th draft.

I’m Dan Hellbound.
