writing

a contest entry

Writing has always been a hidden passion for me, I almost took up Journalism in college but because I know my parents will not give their approval, I just selected another course. It has been my salvation for the many painful and traumatic moments in my life. Whenever I am in a happy relationship, I suffer from writer’s block and the last time happened for almost ten years.

 

Writing started out as a hobby, but later on became a habit especially when I am having troubling times, I turn to writing as an outlet and as a refuge for all those pains and hurting.

 

When I joined two writing sites online, one of which is writers’ café, I never expected to receive good reviews and appreciation, I simply just want to vent my emotions through writing.  I have so many ideas stored at the back of my brain that made it too difficult to write about, most of which are sensitive topics to begin with.

 

Aside from creative writing, I dwell on political writing, I send out anonymous letters to government officials whom I admire and hate the most. Sometimes they can track my email through the IP address but most times I do it through postal with no return address.

 

Writing has turned from a simple hobby to an advocacy. A silent voice wanting to be heard somehow and in some way.

Wow dami ninyo na palang experience,ang galing.ako po elementary ako nagstart macurious sa pagsusulat pero curious pa lang po nuon kasi iba pa hilig ko nuon ang magdrawing at pagkanta pero sa pagkanta may stage fright ako kaya hobby lang.sa pagdrawing matagal na ako nahinto pero iyon pagsusulat palagi akong bumabalik sa hobby ko na iyon kahit tumitigil ako ng matagal pero hindi ko maiwasan ang magsulat kahit may katamaran ako tapusin.kaya sa palagay ko kapag gusto ng puso mo iyon ginagawa kahit tumigil ka hahanap-hanapin pa rin ng katawan at puso mo.
