New Years & New Beginnings

And so we've made our way in to 2011!


Of course, I hadn't written in a while and I missed doing so terribly, so I thought why not start off the new year with a little something I put together? Its not much, but its something.

Leaving behind some bitter memories,
And perhaps far too many good times
Taking with us new people we met,
Some of whom could be friends for life

Perhaps we bought a few new things for ourselves,
The problems we faced, may have been be big or small
And in doing the things we do everyday,
We could've shrunk a little, or maybe grown a little tall

But we all learned a few lessons I'm sure,
Some that will help us for a lifetime
Perhaps some hit absolute rock bottom,
And are now struggling to make a dime

Bad times will come every now and then,
But usually good times will follow
If only we remember at all times,
To take a break from being too shallow

For some, 2010 could have been the time of their life,
For others it may have been time for sacrifices
But as we embrace 2011 with open arms,
Will we be making ourselves any new promises?

Hope you guys enjoyed it :)

Until next time...

Hasta la-buh bye!

Memories & Vacations

Howdy!

Hadn't written an update on the blogaroo in a long time. Just wanted to drop by and say hello. School's out for the holidays, and Christmas spirits are high! Hope everybody's enjoying the cheer and the chills =)
I've been reminiscing a lot lately, and I thought I'd share this song because it has a special place in my heart. At one point in high school, before I found the right friends, I was able to relate to this song very much.
What about it? The words, the singers & everything else.
Its surprising... the joy a few hombres will bring you.
*raises toast* - to true friends. :)
I'm into my reading phase right now, so the writer's shut off in a room, getting loaded with ideas.
Hopefully I'll be back with some more.
Until then, oh dear readers..
Hasta la-buh bye!

Contemplations & Originations

Oddly enough, both the words in my title this times were revelations to me! I didn't know saying them like that was grammatically correct, but cheers to being colloquially disciplined. =)

Lately, I have taken to doing my speculations on the bus, and taking into account the season of Fall (about which I hope to be writing very soon), the weather is perfect for thinkers, and these turn out to be quite the bus rides!

In any case, since I couldn't come up with another poem quick enough to post, and I wanted to make sure I didn't bore the few readers that I have, to death. I decided to change the writing style up a little, and write basically whatever came to my mind. And here's what my pen wrote...

"This is my theory now.

So, where do ideas originate?

Ideas are like energy. They cannot be created or destroyed. They seem to be very eco-friendly though. They can be recycled a lot more than you think.  *chuckle*

But then, how do people keep coming up with different things, you may ask?

Because they live. They live longer, and the see different things around them. They learn to imagine, they learn to hope, and their mind slowly learns how to entangle all these things together to form what we call an idea.

The subconscious mind... its quite a powerful thing, you know? It absorbs a lot more than the human race is even aware of, and that has been scientifically proven.

Not that I claim to be an expert of the human mind, or anything. I am simply stating my point of view.

I don't really know why I wrote this post up. Maybe this was my way of so elegantly giving you all an excuse for my writer's block (which again, I hope will be lifted soon!)

But my question to you is, what can you take away from my little blurb? Though I think this is a one time thing, my posts won't all be educational! ;-)

The next time someone says, "I'm out of ideas", go ahead and tell them to go out a live a little.

Why do you think they will have an idea when they come back? Because they will have a new experience under their belt!

Now let it be known that I don't think creativity or originality is absent among great writers, of course not! But until the time when I manage to come up with an idea that I can't trace back to something I've seen before, or heard before, or had a fleeting glimpse of, or even hoped before, my theory remains intact."


So once again, do let me know what y'all think! Until next time...

Hasta la-buh bye!
