Puer Aeternus: I am Immortal

by
The Fear of Growing Up
The saddest part about growing up is facing the fact that you’re not that same kid who cuddles on your mom when your sad and tries to build an airplane out of LEGOS. You tend to act like the guys you regularly see on T.V who have overwhelmingly grown beard all over their faces and lived a life similar to James Dean.

But, at the end of the day, you’re still that kid who messes up with things and forgets to drink his milk on a Saturday evening. Sometimes, you wonder why your actions are far inconsistent with your age; you’re merely 21 but you still eat hot dogs like a preschooler.

A Satellite's Diary

by
Earth's Satellite

I'm really not a fan of short short stories (though this one is a short short short story). I prefer reading lengthy stuffs like those of Encyclopedias. You know, I am a self-proclaimed geek fat boy.
Just kidding! Anyway, I wrote this piece when my head got hit in a stellar. I suddenly decided to write something out of my awesome brain. Please, forgive me for being boastful and arrogant. This is what you get when your head hits a heavy stellar. Figurative! Well, if you want to know the words, don't hesitate then. If not, get out of here. Crap!

Started in 2013, The Random Letter 7 is a Blog that shows the creativity and awesomeness of these two awesomely awesome guys: Mark and Alvin (although Alvin objects that his name should go first but then, what the heck, I wrote this article for god sake. You don’t have power here buddy, sorry!
The Random Letter 7 Culprits
After all I’m 10 times a-lot-more-awesomely-awesome-er-than-all-the-awesome-words-can-explain-and-describe than you. Yeah! You’re a Dean’s Lister… So what? I’m cool. You’re a vocalist of a rock band… I’m cool and I just got better because of acknowledging you as the vocalist of your rock band. You have those cool tattoos; well I am better than you because I just acknowledged those body arts despite the fact that I have already considered you as the vocalist of your rock band… I’m sorry buddy, everybody knows you’re awesome, but you’re just way out of my league). Well, what the f*** is this all about?

7 Types of Online Advertisements That Disturb Me

by
With the rapid technological innovations in our society nowadays, we are getting more virtually acquainted with diverse people all over the planet. This advancement has also paved the way for us, homo-sapiens, to better understand human nature. One of these is our innate desire to fumble on things because our eyes admire them. We're pretty visual - complex yet true. So, why the hell am I talking about this? I want to point out those things where we easily trip off, stumble and grow ignorant. An epitome of this "human vulnerability" is the way online advertisements trick (for the better lack of terms) us. I'm not against online advertisements placed by the Colossus of the Search Engine world, no doubt about that. However, they play so damn well that we easily give in.

Advertising Online

To tell you honestly, I prefer that they would put a more decent or, shall I say, advertisements not meant for dummies. For you to better understand this idea of mine, let me present to 7 of most "dang-I-knew-it" online advertisements that are all drenched in this vast ocean of the Internet world. By the way. advertisements here are used metaphorically.

The 7 Controversial Kid's Books

by


ContreversialOkay stop right there, I know what you’re thinking. First of all, this one is not about that endless surge of “top 10 gruesome fairy tale” stuffs that you recently read in several article websites. Here, I wanted to talk about a quite similar stuff, something like, their cousin. Yeah, I want to talk about children’s book. Well, what’s up with them?
The truth is, not all the children’s book is as innocent as you thought they were. In fact some of them are even banned because of their quite very inappropriate content for children. Imagine reading your child gay stuffs, violence or, well you know, out of this world weirdness. They are like Red Hot Chili Peppers’ album because well, they contain blood, sugar, sex and magic. Well kids, here comes the top 7 most controversial children’s books.

The 7 Senatorial Candidates That Shouldn't Have Won The 2013 Philippine Elections

by
List of Candidates

Recently, the Philippines have just finished writing the last chapter of the 2013 Elections. And, as expected, there were an array of whim-whams that stormed the country –it should be this or it should be that. Alas, Filipinos all over the world have yet to realize the results of their choices until the final proclamation came. Well, I’d like to take the liberty to present 7 of the senatorial candidates, who won, that could have went home and ate popcorn, at least.  Of course, this is just my honest opinion and the list could go on. However, I don’t want to defeat the purpose of this blog, so, I’ll stick on that. Here it goes…

The Horse Rap Incident

by
And so they say, everybody needs a hobby. May some find comfort in doing productive stuffs such as crochet, cooking, graphic designs, internet porn, staring at a goat all day, wondering if chupakabras and unicorns are real or watching ancient aliens
Horse Meme
Well, this is awkward
in national geographic, while others just find it relaxing to smother other people for no reasons at all (Seriously? Who does that?). So then I found writing. Yeah, I know… I confess my English is not that great. In fact, my grammar just comes back and forth and it is in a matter of mood. Sometimes, I find it very good when I feel so Poe-ish, Swift-ish, Golding-ish, or Burgess-ish. But when the world around me suffers in a terrible fucked-up seizure, my words can never be any better than a steaming pile of horsecrap (it seems weird, I tried to right-click the word “horsecrap” in MS-word because it is underlined with red shit. I thought at first that I should separate the two words but when I right clicked it, it suggested “horse rap”… hahaha, classic). But hey, why not give it a shot? As if writing could make my life miserable.
You know, I am not a vocal person in terms of my comments about the world and all the crap I see around (although some of my friends knows me as a noisy type. But honestly, 90% of what I am saying most of the time is completely nonsense and I am aware of that. That’s because I don’t want them to discover the truth: I am a ninja who works at a secret underground laboratory led by an evil mastermind came from the planet Nibiru who is tasked to annihilate the corrupt government officials throughout the galaxy). And the only way I found to release all this uneasy thoughts inside me is through writing.

When Zeus and I Met

by
WritingWhen I was in college, I developed a love for writing. I get to enjoy and see life at a different perspective when I'm playing with words. I'm not saying that I'm a good writer, but, denying that writing is my passion would be an understatement. Basically, there's this underlying connection between me and this niche. It seems like I can't finish my day without doing things that concern writing. With this considered, I concurred that I will become a great writer someday. However, as what most people say, it's easier said than done. At the very first place, I thought it's not an arduous task. It's just a walk in the park. There's no need for me to dig in deeper with the basics and/techniques. But, like the demigod, Achilles, I too was shot on my heel.
