Writing habits can be developed as early as kindergarten but the passion of doing it evolved as time goes by. Some made it a hobby by which at any instant they write what they think about. They used pen and paper as if it is a post message box in Facebook or a twit box in twitter. Only a few realize how writing can be more meaningful than being just a displacement of emotions.
When I was young, I loved to write poems and other one liner for myself. My notebooks are not filled with assignments or mathematical solutions, it is filled with broken sentences and phrases. I used to write when I see my crush or when my mother scolds me. When I do that I don't cry. Even up to now I'm still displacing my emotion through writing.
Also, I kept a diary. It is still here. Some of the entries in my diary are written in vernaculars and so when I read it again it's kinda funny. When I'm in the mood to write, I write everything. As in everything including the way I took my bath, color of my clothes etc. I really don't know but there are times in my life that I fell like writing.
When I was in college I happened to be in a good university. Thought I was good writing? No I was not. I was not confident with my works. I have this feeling of inferiority and I don't know why. Sometimes I'm afraid that what I've done is not good for others and so I just resort to not showing it at all. I tried to pass essays and articles but was simply so scared that it will be dumped and so I dumped it myself. Those were the things I regretted the most I haven't tried it at all. I was a fool for not believing in myself.
When I was in first year college, I took a Bridger course.. That was a subject for good English communication. I know I'm not that good in writing but I just want to write. For me, writing is like talking. As long as you stand by the person you are talking with, the medium doesn't really matter. I am not a poet or a good writer. I write because it speaks of my personality. I write because I confide everything through writings. I write because I want to kill time. And I write because I love doing it. It's not really a hobby- it is passion.
