30-Minute Warning I

What can I say in this post in under 30 minutes?

Well, this is the 4th straight Minute Warning post and the 1st 30-Minute Warning post here on The Dispatch. That’s great because I have been blogging frequently as I promised. I’m planning to mix it up a bit though. I’m planning to publish more short poems soon and a birthday letter to The Undertaker this Friday, March 24. (Would you look at that… The Deadman has a birthday!) I hope you, my dear reader, can check that out this weekend.

Last night, I saw my younger brothers’ band perform in a bar in Marikina. They performed 2 original songs, and they killed it! The 1st song was released last June 2022, and they are recording the 2nd song recently.

Notes to Self II

Hello, ladies and gentlemen! I’m The Deranged Writer and welcome to the 2nd edition of Notes to Self, where I keep in my mind and heart a relevant quote from any form of media, someone I know in real life, or a personal hero.

Speaking of personal heroes, here’s a quote from a childhood hero and my favorite professional wrestler of all time, Mark Calaway aka The Undertaker. I think he said the following quote before or on the WWE InVasion pay-per-view. (Correct me if I’m wrong.)

“There’s no shame in going out fighting and getting your ass kicked, but there’s no honor in not fighting at all.”

The Undertaker (2001)

To Taker, you’re right. “There is no honor in not fighting at all.” Therefore, I will keep on fighting no matter how many times I get defeated. Thank you for your motivational quote.

Do you have any quotes that I should remember? Hit me up in the comments section below, on my socials (here are my Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter), or through email at therealderangedwriter@gmail.com.

Until the next Notes to Self!
