Dreams of an Author

I felt like writing today's post because I felt a little sad. I started to listen to queen Lana Del Rey and her songs bring me to places.

It's mid-term break right now. I am back home on my comfy bed. I wish I could be alone, but I'm not.
I've got exams coming up after this week is over. So I brought my note book for mind maps. Haven't done a thing though.

Last Saturday, as soon as I got home, my sister told me about this novel she found amidst her junk and she said it was given to her by a taxi driver who claimed that her daughter wrote the novel. So it really made me intrigued, jealous even. How on earth do people get their works published? Do they just accept any manuscript that go their way? Do they reject most manuscript that goes their way? What criteria do they want in order have it published?

I've been having this little dream about publishing books since long ago. Never though it would happen though... There's a possibility... but I can't really see it. That makes me sad but... you can't have everything in life.

What can I do? I know the answer to that and every other answer that people could come up with. Not trying to be a smarty pants, but, come on. Everyone else knows it too.

Riku

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. I've watched this movie about this particular forbidden love. How my heart breaks for Riku. He's sort of the villain in all of it, but he's just a lost boy who kept an unrequited love for his friend. All those years, and everything was over when his loved one died. It was painful to see him suffering all by himself, since he never told anyone. Oh, poor Riku! poor Riku! I feel like giving him a big hug so he can cry all that hatred and anger away. He loved his friend so much for so long, but his friend loved someone else and died for someone else. How pitiful. It's nobody's fault, Riku. You don't need to blame it on other people(though I understood why he would). Dear Riku, it's okay to express it. Don't hold it in. It'll be better if you'd let go of the hate and anger.

Dear

I've been spending a lot of time reminiscing about the past, and by that, I mean about Dir en Grey. Kyo's screams are the best then and now. I really miss the cute Kyo back when they first started. It baffles me how cute he was. Then when they went on Europe and American tours, things started to get pretty tough on them. Kyo turned to express himself more. I have to say, I don't miss the days when he self-harmed on stage. I'm glad those days are gone (almost...) but I do miss their intensity and the pain that I could hear in that voice. I could tell the frustrations that they were having, the pain and the difficulties, and it translated into a penetrating voice which Kyo would scream out to the audience. I think those times of trial and pain pushed them further with their performance, resulting in an emotional performance each time. I cherish those days but I'm sure as happy they are pass. I miss to hear the pain in that voice but I'm also glad the pain of tho...

Is Loving too much a Curse?

I've been thinking about this lately. Thinking about the things that I love very deeply... It would absolutely crush me to have it taken away. Please, do not ever go away. Please be here for always and never end. It would crush me. It would crush me. I would break. So please don't ever end. Don't ever leave us. Promise us this.
