This is the HS me.
Back in High School, I use to do lots of performing acts; dancing different genres during parties, I even played Charo Santos when we do an "MMK" like show for linggo ng wika. I am not a sports person nor a logically type so imagine my shock when I won a medal for playing chess during a sportsfest.Tsamba, sa totoo lang.
T'was in high school when I did lots of story writing stuffs. I had this different set of intermediate pad paper that I tag along during school days so me and my bestfriend could edit parts. It was in high school when I got to finish a super fictional story about 4 teens and how they find each other - admitting true feelings. It was also in High School when I got to experience the real newspaper deal when I became the literary editor of the school paper. I was also in high school when I've got to join a real theater play with experienced actors.
You cannot blame me for applying Creative Writing in UP because that's what I believed in back then - that I want to be a novelist (or something) just because I love writing. Of course, taking up Theater Arts slipped in my mind also. But, no. Didn't go through it.
Maybe it was a sign. Y'know, not passing UPCAT, not taking Creative Writing. Maybe, God really wants me to pursue something different. Something I never knew back then (well, maybe until now).
I decided to took Marketing and Advertising for reasons that 1. It's a dual course. 2. I can work anywhere because this job is so flexible can you believe it. 3. Because the 'advertising' thing excites me. It was only in the middle of my first year days when I realized that this is not the course that I think it is. This focuses more on the 'marketing' side and the 'advertising' part, the part that I want, was just a sample of it. Ouch.
I've also got to face that usual college student dilemma - shifting courses, shifting schools. But, nope, didn't go through it. Magagalit ang nanay ko for sure!!! Plus, iniisip ko - I can take whatever course that I want after I graduate. Napamahal na rin naman kasi ako, guys. <3 p="p">

I don't know what to feel when I saw this post. I don't even remember posting this or that I have that sense of not doing things back then because of a lot of changes.
Maybe, really, God has plans. I may have not taken a proper writing course back then, I am not regreting everything right now. I like it how everything has ended from college. I mean, sure If I can undo things, I would undo a few ones but not to the point that I am undoing everything. I am here right now typing this words for a real purpose, and maybe I haven't took up writing back then because that isn't just the right time. Or maybe it really isn't for me. But either or, I am not giving up trying to write and continue all my life long goals and dreams that has to do with it. As my life mantra is, let me quote Coldplay: "If you never try, you'll never know". With the right amount of words, proper inspiration, right timing, I will be publishing my own book! Tiwala lang, self. Haha (Yup, that's the dream!) I know I am not a pro at patching words up, but I know I have the heart to do so. And kapag mahal mo, kaya mo lahat. Hugot?
To segway, I did a separate blog for my literary writings (as if people care huhu). Wala lang. Trying hard to be organized when I know I am super indecisive with things! If you have time, please please you can view all my hopeless romantic lines and rants here: http://lawrites.tumblr.com/ !
I am trying to update once in a while, depending on the flow of words in my head. Haha arte. But please if you can, please check it out. I accept comments, suggestions, criticisms, and anything as long as you tell me so we could figure out things! Feel free to tumblr ask me there or send me a mail thru leobhelcueto@gmail.com!
Haay, I just wish I won't be lazy. Haha I wonder what's in store for me in the future, me and my dreams. If I'd be given a chance to view the future, I will! I like spoilers! Haha but hey what the heck, must focus on present to have a bright future!
Teka, labo na nito.
