Daily Writing Habit: 10 Days

It's been ten days since I started this daily writing activity. Of course it's not easy but I pushed myself to keep going. There were good days when I was able to come up with a story with lots of descriptions and metaphors like First tarot reading: Tale of the Past Employment, and there were bad days when I couldn't come up with anything and started rambling. I'd say Story of the Broke and Unemployed is a good example of the latter.

Today is one of the days I have too much on my schedule. Since early morning, I've been travelling around: breakfast, home, gym, home, interview, cafe, sharing, home. The only time I could sit and type was at the cafe. I only spent an hour or so there.

I worked on a post entitled 'The Night Traveler', telling my experiences outside at night. However, I didn't manage to finish it. I was halfway through when I had to leave for the sharing.

One thing about me is I don't like to bring any work back home. I want my room to be the place I rest and only that. Days like this one leave me feeling troubled. Right now, I'm sitting on the floor with my laptop on my bed, typing away. My body ached from being in this position for too long. Since I didn't want to work at home, the table in my room has been filled with books. There's no place to put my laptop.

That's not the only problem. I couldn't continue the supposed post, 'The Night Traveler'. There were details that made me uncomfortable. I don't want to talk about things that will scare me in my own room. That'll be a story for another day, when I'm sitting comfortably in a well-lit library or a cafe.

That's all the problem I encounter with this daily writing activity. I am still trying to break through these challenges so here I am, folded awkwardly by the bed and typing away.

Now you know that whenever you see these kinds of rambling posts in the future, I probably type them at home late at night when I yearn to take a nice bath and call it a day.

That's exactly what I'm going to do right now. This'll be the shortest post I've ever written.

Let's hope tomorrow will be better :)
