Latte Addictions

So... at home, I must have a stack of 20 journals that have 2-3 pages of writing in them each. (I was thinking of taking a picture of them all and uploading them, but my inner-blogger is not ready for that step yet, so insert imagination here) I just can't help it! If i see a really cute journal, I have to have it.

I say, "YES! this one is it, this will be the one that I fill each and every page with my brilliant writings and prose." Some may call it an addiction, my boyfriend calls it money wasting, but I call it inspirations!!

Here is one that really caught my eye. At 5.99 each, I'll buy them all please :)







You can also pick one up here, at http://boldideas.bigcartel.com/ , or check out some of their other incredibly cute things

I love the internet and all the great things that you can read on it. After reaching home from my horrible day, I decided I needed some inspiration, some daily dose of zenhabits, zenfitness, and I happened to stumble upon something called Morning Pages which is the brain child of Julia Cameron. You can check out this link to read more about it. (www.theartistsway.com) Morning Pages is a daily exercise where you fill out three pages of writing. You can write about anything, whatever you are thinking at that moment. This exercise is meant to release your creativity. It lets you off-load any worries, issues, things that may become a hindrance to your day.

When I was younger, many people have told me I was very creative, that I had great ideas. But as I have grown older, I feel as if I've lost that creativity. Lost it amongst the struggles of work and school, lost it amongst the ride that is life. Its sad that I have no creative outlet. When I see the people who write songs, poems, design clothing, I feel a big twang of jealousy, because I know I can do that too, because I want to be able to do those things too. Part of the reason why I opened up this account was so that I can find this creative outlet, this inner voice that used to be so loud.

So, I have decided to partake in this exercise of Morning Pages. Everyday for the next 12 weeks I will write three pages first thing I wake up. Maybe after emerging from this exercise, I will know who I am better, I'll be a song-writer, a poet, a novelist, or a painter.

We'll see... but I am kind of excited to wake up tomorrow morning.

Start date: February 22, 2010
End date: May 22, 2010 (my birthday... woo)

que deseen...

really wishing I could be there now.

Snowstorm, traffic, failure of an exam...
what a welcome back to real life. T___T

blog?

I would say its slightly stressful writing your first post on your first "blog". What do I write about? What's even a blog?

A blog (a contraction of the term "web log")^[1] is a type of website, usually maintained by an individual with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events, or other material such as graphics or video. (taken from wiki, my fav)

I don't know if my commentary and description of events would amuse or entertain anyone, but I'm starting this blog as my personal mission. I want to create my own voice on different issues, from different events in life. I want to have self-growth by "blogging", look inwardly on situations and problems that I experience in life.

I have lots of thoughts, mostly random that just come to me out of the blue. So... here we go.
