Paying the Reaper

Where do I start this post with, I wonder... I left writing at this blog since my birthday so that would leave me posting... two weeks late. Oh my god. I guess I have to pay the reaper for this one.

Can I honestly start highlighting events over the past week? I think so haha. I had my birthday blowout on the saturday right after classes were over and to my surprise, most everyone i invited came haha (except you Myles, patalo ka haha) Gerome, James and Lester came! We shared some laughs as we always do and really just took some time off talking about serious stuff I have grown accustomed to. I'm so happy Gerome, James and Lester came because it's been almost a year since we met. After James pulled a disappearing act over a year ago, it was a relief to hear from him and to actually come haha.

So happy that after all these years, nothing really changed. No matter how crappy college life can get, I guess I can still count on some friends haha. I swear they'd scald me if they hear me talking all sentimental, just the kind of friends I grew up with.

I'm spending most of my time drowning in games or writing the ECE Battle Royale I've been planning for so long. It's so nice that everyone who's read it liked it (even if they are featured dying in a gruesome way). I remember one time when I was just getting started that I had to think what I was writing for and back then, it was merely a way of getting attention. Later on though, I learned to love writing in a way that it embodies a part of me and maybe perhaps it's because of the encouragement I got.

Just live, that's what James used to say and I couldn't agree more. Regrets and mistakes should not be forgotten but they shouldn't hold you back either. Reading what I've written over the years made me realize that I was writing for fun now... not relief. I'm so happy whenever someone tells me that they like what I'm writing and that it inspires them to start -- weird, I never would have thought that I'd arrive at this point but I did and for that, I'm eternally grateful.

Paid? Later then. I have some writing to get to
