The Deranged Writer

Facing/Avoiding

The brain tells to avoid
And the universe reminds
My mind is being toyed
The nth time that I resigned

What if I take action
Because we live only once
Or prep for extraction
So I’ll not look like a dunce

One more heavy deep breath
Should I stay or should I go
Doubt creeping like he’s Death
Final decision is no

The brain tells to avoid
And the universe reminds
Indecision, destroyed
The action I leave behind

III: Everything About The Deranged Writer’s Instagram Feed

This morning, I tried to do something different for The Diary: finish a draft before working hours. But because I’m normally a night owl and I need caffeine to function properly in the morning, I stayed away from my blog for a bit, had breakfast, drank coffee, and then did my usual clerical work. And I also joined Father on his survey in Laguna.

And while we were on the way to the job site, I scrolled through my blog. And then I found a great topic for today’s post, thanks to the nine latest Instagram posts shown on my blog’s sidebar.

Well, then. Now I’m back from Laguna, let me tell you about my Instagram account/feed!

Notes to Self III

Last February 6, 2023, I made a promise to myself: blog more often again. I started by launching a blogging series called Notes to Self (where I remind myself of a relevant quote from any form of media or someone I know). Today, I’m celebrating my 1st month of frequent blogging here on The Diary. I’m so proud of myself because it’s been years since I’ve blogged religiously. (I think the last time I’ve done that, Tumblr was in its first or second year of existence.) And no, I’m not planning on stopping soon.

Anyway, let me celebrate my first blogging monthsary with the third edition of the same blogging series I started here in The Diary. I want to quote one of my favorite lines from the longest-running sci-fi series in the world, Doctor Who.

Spoiler warning if you haven’t seen the Doctor Who Series 5 episode “Vincent and The Doctor.”
