An update, NaNoWriMo, Writing and Vlogging.

Considering the fact that I really have nothing good to say today, I decided to update the blog just to say I'm doing something. I know it's hard to write about something when there's nothing in your mind to write about. Somehow, I feel like I'm giving up on writing, when in fact it's what I want to do for the rest of my life while possibly running a business of my own. That's a future that should come into fruition.

 

I've always wanted to do a lot of things. I've wanted to paint, I've wanted to play a lot of instruments, I've wanted to design houses and even clothes, I've wanted to go on a world tour, I've wanted to be a photojournalist, well basically I wanted to do almost everything. It seems to me that I have penchant for wanting to do a lot of things and end up not doing it. In a way, sloth, a sickness of mine only next to greed and selfishness, has something to do with it. Lately, or probably ever since I began watching vlogs on YouTube, I've wanted to do video blogs but always hesitated because I didn't know how to start. Also I wanted it to be perfect. I don't want to do it just because I wanted to vlog but I want to do it because I know I have a lot of things to say. I'm opinionated. Writing cannot satisfy that feeling when you really want something to come across to other people. Feelings and emotions do not translate well over text; I'm not that talented of a writer.

 

In another note, I know that November is still months away but I'm already planning for my next story for NaNoWriMo. If you have any ideas, please I'm begging you put them in the comments below. I don't mind if you read this years from now, as long as NaNoWriMo still lives then it's fine with me. I do have great ideas I just don't know if I'll be able to execute and deliver properly. I've already thought about writing something about Zombies but I don't think it'll be that interesting. I've thought about writing and creating a different universe other than our own or about something like Neverwhere but these are still in the works. I have drafts and they all look grim so I'm not sure if I'll finish them.

 

On another different note, I still want to do a Manila tour. I want to just walk around Manila or the good part of Alabang and Makati and take pictures. Oh the things I want to do…

 

I guess that's just an update. I hope the future looks bright for me. I don't want to be an employee forever.
