For the past few weeks I have been trying to decide what to write on. Even as I write this I have no idea what to write this journal about. Rather then just leaving another blank journal, I decided to just free write and see what happens. So besides grammar errors, I am not going to edit this journal at all. The reason I couldn't think of anything to write was mainly because I didn't just want to write about my day like usual. To me, my day seems boring and I forget half of it regardless. I have been really motivated to write something, whether it is poetry or a journal, but I can't think of anything. I'm sure once this dry spell passes I will have a load of ideas, but it seems like it has been over a month since I have had any good ones.
I just got an idea, I will write a haiku, because those are always easy and fun.
I should be doing
Something different right now.
An example is...
I'll continue that thought with another haiku after I write some more standard writing. I almost decided to change the haiku into a rhyming one but then realized that would be going against the self proclaimed rule of no editing. So I have left the haiku as it is. No different to you the reader, but the event could have changed the entire next haiku; which I will write now:
My physics final.
Tomorrow morning it’s due.
Train of thought pierced with...
I had a thought about something interesting but I completely forgot what it was about due to a commercial about Audioslave's new album distracting me. I don't really even like Audioslave but it still caught my attention. Weird. I surfed today. I didn't really catch anything, but I surfed. I think that will be the only part of my day I am going to describe in this journal. More haiku:
Anime music.
Silence is enjoyable,
True silence is rare.
I just decided to center and bold the haiku's so they will stand out more then the rest of the journal. This is to emphasize them in hopes that you, the reader, will read them slowly and get the hidden meanings. Sadly, there are no hidden meanings, just ramblings put into simple poetic form. I have realized I read allot. Not so much out of books, but articles and random facts that I find online. I have been thinking lately about how useless materialism is. Besides the obvious answer of God, I think certain forms of writing is the only material thing that is worth collecting. Even music I can see being useless (to collect). My taste has changed so rapidly in the past few years that I might not even listen to anything remotely close as I am currently. I just decided to actually edit one of the lines above. You will notice the parenthesis around the edited part, this way you can still see my original thought. I wonder if there is any sub-conscious meaning in my original thought. Time for more haiku:
It's 1:11,
Forgot original line,
Blasphemous cartoon.
Ok, I am getting tired and I really need to finish my final. I think I am just going to finish this sentence, write one more haiku, and then write the hard and wack list. Thanks for reading my ramblings.
I wonder what a
Philosophers stone really
Does. I'll research it.
Hard:
1) Not procrastinating.
2) Fitting understandable thoughts into haiku's.
3) Surfing in chop.
Wack
1) Getting hopped while surfing.
2) Never winning at handball.
3) Quantum physics.
