I’ve decided to start 2010 with two things:  seriously get back in physical shape and seriously get back in writing shape.  Now that i’ve started the former, it’s time to make good on the latter.  I have to honestly admit, i lost my passion for writing in 2009 (i seriously think “lost” is an understatement).  But don’t get me wrong, I had lots of things on my mind worth writing about during the 12 months of the previous year, but for some weird, unexplainable reason, I didn’t have the drive, the passion, to write it down.  Have I lost my writing skills?  God, I hope not.  This is one of the things I am definitely most proud of and consider it a “talent” (for lack of a better description).  Yet where I did do most of my writing during the past year was either on Facebook or Twitter which had their own fair share of responses and comments.  But looking back, I’d say I could’ve done better by laying out all my feelings and emotions on those statuses on my blog (as i always do), but, I didn’t.  I even said around the same time last year that i’d put more emphasis on blogging… which I failed to do.  But, as they say, the yesterday has gone, tomorrow looms ahead, and today is for making the most out of it… or something like that.  I’ve gone in search of my passion for writing and hopefully i’ll get it back, one post at a time.  This being an important year for us Filipinos, I suppose it’s no better time to start writing more about what’s happening around us, but that’s not to compromise personal stuff as well.

Wow, my first post for 2010.  Hopefully it won’t be the last.  It’s time to stop talking and start writing.

But, what if writing IS talking…  Go figure.
