Creativity

It's 7.30am in the morning, and I have a class at 8.30am. But forget that first. ^^


When I first started the rebranding of this blog, I have no idea about how hard is it to keep it updated. Okay, sure I have another blog, but it's very different from this one. I've used to keep diaries some time before, and that blog, or as I refer it to; LJ, is pretty much an online diary. I intended to make this Blogger, as a place to channel creativity. And why creativity?
An idea garden is simply a place to park your ideas. But it’s not just about planting your ideas somewhere – these seeds need sun and water, as it were. Without getting the energy and attention they need, they’ll become just another idea that never sees the light of day.


It's actually my English assignment. I want to write an essay on Blogging: A Mean to Reduce Stress and Channels Creativity. And I might be cutting the reducing stress part, and focus on being creative. 
I've always have this thought, that people who blogs actually wanted to share something. The quality of it, is another question. But the fact that the extend some/ a lot of effort to produce a blog to share at least their daily life experience, makes me think; 'Can I be as creative as they are?' It left me to ponder with it for some time, and as I need to write out a 700 words essay, (Okay, I think I sounded like it's going to be 2000 words or more ^^;;) why not I share a little of my findings here? And here I am early in the morning, thinking that I will be able to make a decent out of the little info I have

Boosting creativity. Yes, this blog is a way to do it, or as Productive Flourishing says it, an idea garden. A place to gather all the ideas of creativity we have, and to continue developing it. In your blog, you need to pay attention to what you're writing or sharing, but it doesn't mean that creativity should be restricted that way. We nurtured the ideas we have offline, and share it to rest of the world through blogs.

I'm not that artistic, all I have is my writing skills that I sometimes ignored due to a lot of circumstances that I can't help myself. But I've seen people sharing a lot of things online in their blogs. Photos, songs, writing, (like me) or people who simply write about their daily life and transforms it to be something more than just an online diary. I see the budding creativity from these people, and some of them, have been discovered through blogs and what-not, and become successful in what they used to considered as hobby. This, is another point that I want to convey. That by sharing your ideas, thoughts, and effort in blogs make it possible to change your hobby into something that generate money. I, for one, prefer the work over the money, and I wanted a good job that I can enjoy myself while working with it.

How would you feel, if you're love writing, and you opened a blog to share it, to expand your creativity, when someday someone asked you whether you would like to work full-time writing; the thing that you love?

Masscomm

Dua, tiga hari lepas, kat Twitter heboh orang kutuk budak masscomm. Macam-macam provoke aku jumpa, orang butthurt, orang tak kisah, orang yang pujuk orang butthurt cakap "masscomm awesome", macam-macam lagila. Orang lain maybe tak peduli pun pasal benda ni, tapi yela, kalau dah kena kutuk, mestilah nak bela diri sendiri balik, kan? Ijazah Sarjana Muda Komunikasi dan Pengajian Media dengan Kepujian (Kewartawanan). Tu course aku. Aku tak cakap aku budak masscomm dah, aku cakap aku budak Journalism. Sebab apa? Sebab fundamental masscomm dah belajar masa diploma. Masa diploma, yup, aku budak masscomm. (Sekarang pun masscomm, tapi dah ada major). Sebagai budak yang dulunya suka Fizik dan bercita-cita nak sambung belajar Fizik dan kerja dalam bidang Fizik (astronomi ye, tapi kata orang macam far-fetched sangat), aku boleh nampak beza susah senang Fizik (atau subjek Sains in general la) dengan masscomm ni. Memang betul pun belajar masscomm ni senang je, tak macam belaja...

Serabut.

By -
Kepala serabut. Bukannya kerana tugasan sudah mula menimbun. Bukan juga sudah mula berasa penat kerana terpaksa berulang dari rumah ke kampus. (Rumah-kampus: 28km. Baru teringat hendak kira kilometer tengahari tadi.) Bukan juga masalah dengan kawan, bukan juga masalah dengan manusia lain. Masalahnya dalam diri sendiri. Bila kepala terlalu banyak berfikir, bila kepala tidak faham bahasa dan berhenti berfikir, mulalah merungut kepala serabut. Payah jadi manusia yang tidak tahu bila hendak berhenti berfikir, tetapi tidak pernah berfikir sebelum bercakap. Bukan seorang dua pernah berpesan, tak perlulah fikir banyak sangat. Bukan tidak pernah cuba, tetapi setiap kali kepala hendak shut down , untuk tidur, ketika itu datang idea baru untuk perkara lama. Dan idea baru itu akan dibahaskan dalam kepala sendiri, sehinggalah mata benar-benar mengantuk dan otak terlalu penat dan akhirnya tertidur begitu sahaja.  Bila bangun pagi, badan automatik akan bersiap, ambil beg, salam tang...

In just another blink of an eye.

When I was at lowest point of my life, I'd like to think that everything is unfair. I'd like to think that fate cannot be changed. I'd like to think that I'm going to be in despair forever. How stupid. Wasn't I the one who said that no matter how unlucky my life is, there will always be someone who is worse than me but are still smiling? That the term unlucky is only for the pessimist. That the fact of whether how much luck we have depended on how we get through everything in life. True, I had my share of bad days. True, I've lost things along my life. True, some of them are because of myself. Only to find out that I can enjoy the next normal day because I had my share of bad days. Only to find out that in order to gain some, I have to lose some. Only to learn that making mistakes is how I make myself better. What are you afraid of? You think that the problems you've seen are something you can't handle? Why do you think you can't han...
