The short story I have written as a requirement has already been exposed to the writers’ workshop during our Creative Writing class last Thursday. I rather expected the constructive critiques of my colleagues and professor regarding “Home Sweet Home”. Well, I am not really into fiction writing though I am open for craft development.
Sir Miel, who is a student of the fabled Jess Cruz, appreciated the kind of language I employed with my work. He suggested that I mask my thoughts through immediate characterization and inject a more vivid and specific conflict.

I am browsing Paul Dawson’s Creative Writing and the New Humanities (2005) which seeks to answer perennial questions such as ‘can writing be taught’ and ‘should it be taught’. I am the first one to have borrowed the book from the FEU-Library.

The same day, we lost our first badminton match against the Institute of Nursing (IN). Joseph and I failed to prepare for the match. My muscles are still aching – it’s essentially de-stressing though.
Meanwhile, we will be running for the 8th Takbo para sa Kalikasan tomorrow at Quirino Grandstand together with other Tams. After, we are planning to go straight the Ateneo Gym for the UAAP Volleyball Championship (Game One).
***
I was invited to join FEU-ORADEC Debate Chamber’s trainings for the upcoming P.I.D.C. While I concede that I have always wanted to debate, my hectic schedules and other commitments just keep on preventing me to do so. As Prof. Annabel Kibanoff-Mercado (FEU ORADEC Adviser, Communications Department) puts it, debate is really a jealous mistress – and I cannot afford to leave student leadership and community service involvement behind.
***
There is still no update as regards to the Paragon funding. Our waiting will finally be over, I know. Meanwhile, I haven’t seen new issues of the Podium (FEU-IABF) or the Lamp (FEU-IN) yet.

debate!!! hahahahaha...
it's nice to know that someone is also playing Pokemon. i thought i'm the only person in FEU playing that one-plot-same-characters game...
join writeshops and contests if you want to further enhance your fiction-writing skills (share me some of your hobbies and skills so that i can also learn new crafts i.e. photography, painting, etc)...
