It’s been a
while since I last wrote an article/blog entry and now I really feel like I’m
missing out an important part of my life. As a writer, I have been a part of
EPH for more than a year now and in that span of time, I have learned to appreciate
my individuality and assess my capabilities as a freelance writer. I may not be
one of the best but I am proud to say that I am one of the hard working. Why?
Well aside from the fact that I didn’t get use to the idea of using the English
language on my day by day life, English is not my forte. I can somehow
understand and write a few words but I’m not soooo good at it. Honestly! Haha
I’m not the type of writer who will drown the readers with deep lexicon words
since I myself do not know much when it comes to words, synonyms and terms. So
I try to keep things simple and writing with the use of basic words.
Surprisingly! I survived being a writer for quite some time now until I was
exiled to the brown team.
After being
demoted to the not sooo cool team, I began losing the urge to write and the
drive to improve. Maybe because the demotion was so unexpected and sudden which
made me to somehow realize that I am not as good as I thought I am. I thought I
was in my comfort zone, writing every single day of my life, making extra bucks
from it and gaining cool friends at the same time. So when the demotion came, I
was devastated and began thinking that writing was never meant for me on the
first place. Maybe EPH introduced me to writing open my artistic writer and
poet side but now EPH is also the reason why I’m starting to question my
capabilities as a writer and as an individual. Now I’m as lazy as a couch
potato just doing my usual role as a nurse and rest when I don’t have something
to do unlike before I work and I write at the same time. I must admit after
that demotion, my spirit and motivation also went downhill.
Oh well… I’m
still hoping to get back on track as soon as I can…Get RED soon they say... BUT
For now, I’ll focus more on my demanding job as a nurse.
Just strike back! Use the ball analogy. It is not how low you go down that matters. It is how high you bounce back. Kaya mo 'yan. It is not impossible to return to the regular team. :D
