7 Of My All-Time Favorite Authors

Back when I was kid, stuffs like eating hot-dogs were a trophy to me; that’s how simple I think of life is. Although my mom always pushes me to read books to have something in my brain, I prefer ditching them on the sideline.  I was that naive. I thought I was enjoying my kid-life to the fullest. When I was halfway through my elementary years, I gradually developed a hunger for books. I really don’t know why, but I feel like I’m compelled to go the library and be a geek. But don’t get me wrong; I’m not into encyclopedias and/or historical books. These hardbound-nth-pages books were not part of my reading circles. The Hardy Boys, Franklin W. Dixon’s literary pieces, were my thing. At the same time, I never imagined that I’ll indulge with Carolyn Keene’s Nancy Drew. I’m quite the Sherlock Holmes during my youth. Anyway, let me share to you my seven (7) all-time authors that influenced my literary being.

Applying Carl Jung's Individuation In The Movie Inception

Yesterday, I decided to watch the movie Inception together with my wife regardless of my reluctance. Why? I do know that this film is quite complex yet interesting and requires one to fully comprehend every uttered word. But, my copy has no decent audio and subtitles. Thus, recognizing the movie’s transition was a feat for me. Nonetheless, I still handled the situation effectively –by putting my ears on the speakers, literally. Anyway, if you have had watched the movie Inception, you’ll certainly understand why I’m writing this down. At the same time, I know that you’re still wondering about the true meaning behind the ending of the movie. Don’t worry; we’re on the same page. However, I still managed to pull out, at least, some significant symbols in the movie that could somehow address the movie’s ambiguity.

The Perks of Having a Nice Cover

Him from Powerpuff Girls as Palahniuk's new model

Because idiots are rampant on the bookstores these days (including me), you can gain gazillions of money (pathetic hyperbole is intended!) by writing lorem ipsum dolor in the mid section of your generic story and sticking a kickass design on its cover. Read the stuff I wrote during my college days about book cover designs. I'm warning ya', read it!

The Demise Of Vans Warped Tour: True Or Hoax?

Last night, before I decided to go to sleep, I chanced upon rumors that surely pinned my interest. Warped Tour mastermind, Kevin Lyman, has spoken that this year’s tour at Australia will be its last. According to him, primary sponsors especially Vans pulled out from funding the event. To think, Warped Tour has been known for its extreme sports and mash-up music. It has been very successful for over a bundle of years since it started. Also, Warped Tour is very noted to music lovers all over the world–including me. Thus, it is really disappointing to know that such scenario will take place. Although I only get a glimpse of what Vans Warped Tour is through the internet (Youtube, Online Magazines, etc.), it has still influenced my musicianship.

Wedding day is the best day for most couples would ever have had. From the years of relationship with so many tests, challenges, and adjustments to face until the time when both agreed to enter a married life. Another short-term pressure comes in when a couple starts their planning and costing for the wedding day. Financial budget is always the first factor to be considered. But nothing beats the part where couple begins to think of who will actually be there on their lives' biggest day and event. Who will be the priority to receive an invitation card? Of course, sponsors, relatives, and closed friends are the top priority to be invited. But is it wise enough to invite those who once doubted your relationship and decision in getting married? How will it affect the atmosphere of your wedding if they are there again?

Oh, That Random Thought

On my first post, I discussed about the 7 distinct indications of a call center agent. It was indeed lengthy for a guy like me who seldom writes, but I find blogging and/or writing a hobby. However, today's post will be quite bereaved and non-dramatic. Why? Because I'll just suffice about randomness. Yup, you've heard of the latter—RANDOM. And, I'll be utilizing the term literally. As you can see, random stuffs usually occur in our daily lives. Random luck, random bad luck, random faces, random events, random everything! And what better way to add more randomness in life than a blog that posts random things. Right? Right? Right? (I'm just looking for reassurance. Heehaw!)

The Memories of Yesterdays

According to Mother Teresa, “If you judge someone, you have no time to love them.” I first saw this quote when it was posted on my sixth-grade classroom wall, and I ignored it. Relatively, I hated the idea, but perhaps I knew that the quote’s veracity was inarguable. I felt that it was better to judge people so as not to have to love them, because some people don’t deserve a chance. Judgments are shields, and mine was impenetrable.I have always put my attention to my family, my inspiration, love and time. My parents did not always have a harmonious relationship.

7 Indications That You're A Call Center Agent

I have been working as a call center agent for three years now. Indeed, this job is one hell of a roller coaster ride. Literally, this line of job is quite arduous. With the various pros and cons it embraces, being a call center agent is still a professional job. Not only that I earn enough money to sustain my personal needs, I get to meet and/or talk to people–over the phone, that is. However, as the years went by, I gradually chanced upon mere indications that convey my distinction as a call center agent. It's not a negativity, though. Out of this bundle of years, there are seven things I noticed that puts a note on your forehead saying "I work at a call center.” Funny it may seem, but it’s quite true and interesting.

On The Other Hand: Infolinks As A Google Adsense Alternative

Before I introduce to you how great Infolinks is an alternative to Google Adsense, I’d like to convey my stand about writing and/or blogging. One of the best things in blogging is you get the chance to monetize it while doing the very thing you love. Although the latter should be the main priority rather than the former, it’s still beneficial in a way. It’s an evident reality, but it’s not that easy. When I started writing, using pens and papers were my allies. I didn't have the crystal clear idea that Blogosphere exists. Nonetheless, I was happy and contented with my endeavor. I had to utilize numbers of papers, though. It seems this niche piques an unfathomable world in my mind –strange yet interesting.

Why I'm Still Courting "WRITING" Until Now

Indeed, this site has still a lot of loads to do before it makes any recognition in the blogosphere. With all the various websites lurking in the latter,  the former would definitely have a hard time snaking through the labyrinth. The best thing, however, is that writing has no barriers; a single phrase or word can either be precised or ambiguous when it comes to this niche. It totally depends on how passionate the writer is, though. One can perceive an array of perspectives and/or ideologies regardless of the subject being sufficed. For me, nonetheless, writing is literature and I'm fueled to write despite the countless walls that surround me.
