Being bored out of my mind with doing practically nothing at home (I'm not complaining, really) but eat, sleep, watch anime, bath and the like, I would sometimes feel the need to take out the cobwebs in my brain and start tuning its oil and fix the spark plugs and keep it in tiptop shape for the last grind.
And I found a really nice way to get my mind to work its usual 20% of its capacity....
writing!!!
And not just ordinary writing. I have found a really wonderful and challenging genre to create a world. It's ANGST. It's all about pain, suffering, abuse, depression. Those dark stuff where happy endings (almost)always are death. Doesn't sound like me...ne? Well, it's not me at all. But writing stuff that didn't happen to you would make it worthwhile.
Freaked out? Nah!
Just surf around and you'll see tons of sites full of angsty stories. Some have made me cry...you know, depression to the max. The unfairness and injustice given to the protagonist. A savior that's a second late. Kinda reminds me of Kris' favorite(??) song: Ironic.
And stuff like this really happens all the time, right under our noses. Most of them happen to the most helpless sector of society: children. They have nothing, they are dependent, they are naive and innocent. They know nothing of the cruel and wicked ways of the world. They are gullible at the treat of candy and the ones who are most affected. They are easily broken and difficult to mend. They are condemned in a society of corrupt, powerful and inequality. They are targets ready to be hit over and over again.
Going back, whenever I try to write a few pages or so, there's this gripping and tingly feeling I get. Getting attached to the story and yet making it more painful and more sad. The reality of life, the absurdity of fantasy... the similarity of both worlds. It makes me shiver and cringe.
I must be losing my bananas... ^__^

Hi Yenie
this post came up when I searched for affilitiate program so here I am. I came across a website http://shoppercompanies.com/ and was wondering if you had seen it before. It looks like a good deal but there are too many scam artists out there so I now tend to check out a site before joining. Anyone checked it out? Any comments would be appreciated.
Hello Yenie
My fingers are broken from typing mystery shopper in the search engines and finding scam artist sites. this post came up and I am glad to finally get to read posts by actual people and not some jerk who thinks that using mystery shopper entitles him to sell me junk. I like your site and will return to read more posts. Have a good day and thanks for being a nice site.
