Writing Prompts December Goals

Hello people of the world.

I've decide to take 5 of the 365 Days of Writing Prompts ideas just to keep my creative mind to work. I don't want to be idle, and I dread the day my creativity rust.

So here's the five:

1. Take two Run outside. 
• Take a picture of the first thing you see. Run inside. Take a picture of the second thing you see. Write about the connection between these two random objects, people, or scenes.
2. Call me, maybe 
• Describe your relationship with your phone. Is it your lifeline, a buzzing nuisance, or something in between?
3. Perspective 
• Write about the last disagreement you had with a friend or family member — from their perspective.
4. Unknown caller 
• You receive a call from an unexpected person.Who is it,and what is the conversation about? Go!
5. The interview 
• Interview your favorite fictional character.

I probably won't do this in the order mentioned nevertheless, my goal is to finish it up by the end of the year.

Ramble 4

Everyone who knows me and don't have been complaining at how quiet I've become. I have  always been reserved, but lately, I do dream of a hermit life.

Too much to ask? I'm really just tired of people. The closer you let someone in, the bigger chances they'll get at hurting you. And they will.

I've always want to believe that the good times makes up for all the mistakes people do. I think I'm much too hurt to do that.

So I kept quiet. Now, I feel like I've lost even my voice.

Ramble 3

Oh my,

I've just realized how lazy I've been when I looked at this non-progressive blog.

Wanted to make a story out of this.

Just a draft though..
