INFORMATION
Someone speaks softly through the horror and pain:
'Love has gone, but it could come again.'
Spring arrives quietly, warming her skin
Her heart, now red, is beating again
- Hannah Fury, 'Someone Speaks Softly'
Not a writer but a professional student. Instead I can be the jaded passer-by that caught a glimpse of a fling
or a fatal mistake, a murder in the back alley, and I keep it all to myself so I don't lose any of it during the spilling from heart to paper on an unimaginary dark night. I write opinions, facts, emotions and other satisfied sentences that are the offspring of my imagination and external influences. And I do not need your validation to live, for the record.

Insanity is there for me.
Written on: Friday, January 8, 2010 Time: 11:29 PM
Dated: 2 Feb 2009 English class: I completed yet another composition in less than two hours, which was worth celebrating; usually it takes about three hours to pen out something really well. There's a feeling of satisfaction, like as if one has just emerged from a refreshing shower, except the fatigue still remains and slowly melts into incurable ecstasy. I couldn't stop wondering if anyone else's was done. 'Heroes': what a simple yet deceiving title about maybe saving a drowning citizen or a puppy from potential abuse. Frankly I'd steer clear of happy endings to avoid the plot spinning out of my control and turning into hyper blooming parks filled with blissful children. I would turn every story I write into a tragedy in retrospective if I could, because tragedies are what keeps the plot moving with energy fuelled by pain and suffering. I would like it a lot if my teacher would sing my praises.
I ended with an eulogy: not about how a war hero was put on a pedestal in honour of his country, but rather of a humble mother educating her daughter after the demise of her husband, then perishing from a fire which she saved her daughter from. It is not a tear-jerker, but (hopefully) some piece of writing that leaves people with strange unexplainable feelings lodged deep inside their hearts like shards of diamond.
I wonder how I would fare attempting to write a long-drawn out affair of a murder; the outline (or skeleton; in fact, that was the name's true origin) seemed encouraging; usually what I write in a dreamy stupor at night turns out horribly pathetic in the morning, but this time it was alright.Labels: school, writer's rambles

ABOUT ME
Charmaine/Emmy: FCPS, RSS, ___. Satire buff. Anglophile, pedagogue, nefarious grammarian-in-training and hedonistic pedant. Dreams of a pathologist office smelling of soap, disinfectant and disease. (Who forgets autopsies?) I'm a student and satisfied with it, and I'm not eligible to be a writer. Writers are sensitive, creative and they think out of the box but I'm more of a structured person. Then again everyone writes so writers are an exclusive category for published geniuses that do not include me. I like the glories of academia, medicine, reading books, dreaming and writing. I'm that sort of person who would rather party than study, whom one would make happier giving a medical journal/national geographic mag issue than, say, a fashion magazine. (I do read fashion mags when they come to me, but they aren't a necessity.) I'm boring/intriguing like that.
I am a step to University at the moment and I'm treading carefully in case I slip. I'm uncertain if I'll ever find a husband but that doesn't bother me much. This blog collects all my satisfactory writings.
Notes on writings
I don't usually curse, if at all, but at times for a piece of writing to be plausible certain undesirable elements have to be inserted to add reality to it. We all have seen our share of crude characters and for this, it would just be me writing about one. It's a little like writing about lust; written about, divulged, but never encouraged. To put this plainly: if it carries to reality, it is wrong. But since it isn't
technically reality, in my perspective it isn't.
I support pairings and I understand the norm do not. However I see no necessity to apologise for my head.
'You can't cut my heart into sections'
More books, more shelves. Christianity, which in my perspective hinges less on modern-day hocus-pocus than the immutable truth. My Chemical Romance. Pathology. German tank models. Sherlock Holmes & Dr. Watson. Vienna Teng. Heath Ledger. The Third Reich. Bubble Tea.
