Trees
Here be a short couple of paragraphs that a friend of mine asked me to write. Improvements could be done, yes, but here it is in all its raw, unedited glory. Yum.
I don’t see many trees anymore in the place where I go to work. At least not like the ones they have in UP. The trees I see nowadays are sickly, dying, branches limping, leaves drooping, the whole tree an...

Red Jacket
Another assignment for my Intro to Creative Writing class. This time, it’s creative nonfiction. I still don’t have a complete understanding of what that is and how I can write something of the genre that can’t be called fiction either. But here’s my first (finished) crack at it.
I.
At six years old, I had a nightmare where my own father tried to kill me. I woke up crying...

Misguided
This was the first writing assignment we had for my Intro to Creative Writing class. It’s also my first serious and completed short story since I was in the 2nd grade. Whuuuut. There are still some issues with it, but I’m still proud of it. :)
I pulled over after driving for hours in search of this place. I turned off the engine, leaving only the car’s indoor lights on and let...

Unfinished Business(es - and more)
I haven’t been on Tumblr for over a year now.
I don’t even remember why or how, but I somehow got weaned off my addiction to blogging. It’s probably because I never really posted anything worth reading, actually, most were pictures and reblogs. Then again, it might have something to do with the fact that I’ve never finished anything I’ve started on my own. Sure...

Did I Just Write A Poem?
I have had this feeling from the start
Weighing heavily upon my heart.
I can’t help but wonder;
I can’t help but remember,
Having known she had the honor
Of truly having you as her lover.

Prayers
We had a prayer session in school today. I remember thinking before it started why do I need to do this? Can’t I pray on my own time when I want? Isn’t having to force myself to pray like this a bad thing?
It turned out to be very enlightening for me. It helped me take out some thoughts and issues I’ve locked away, to look at them and deal with them.
It’s also been a...

The Alarm Clock
Everyday, as I have grown accustomed to, I set an alarm on my phone before going to bed. At 5:30 in the morning on school days, it rings. I wake up, get out of bed and go about the rest of my day.
There was a time, however, when I was completely exhausted, but I had an exam in the next two hours and I still needed to study.
“I’ll just take a short nap,” I said to myself. It was...
