Writing again

So okay, I want to become a freelance writer. I certainly want people to call me ‘the girl who wrote that international best seller book.’ Wow. I imagine my novel would be about a girl who traveled half the world to find true love. Not very original but mine’s going to be interesting and fun to read. How? I don’t know. All I know is I want to be successful in this field. To have money and to be happy. I just don’t know how am I going to achieve that. As of this writing, I need to finish 16 articles about loans and insurance and I honestly don’t know where to start. Loans are a bit easier to write because I’ve written numerous articles about them in the past. But writing about insurance companies is something I’ve never done in my entire life. The topic is a little too brainy for me. What am I supposed to write about LA Insurance? I took up Business Administration in college and insurance was discussed in Financial Management. So, it’s kind of ironic why I couldn’t write a word about insurance. Ahh I think I know why. I was always late for my class. That’s why! I was working in a fast food chain back then and commuting from/to work/job was such a hassle. Not to mention the hideous traffic. I thought the professor would give me a failing grade because of tardiness. I’m just thankful that I was able to graduate with a passing grade of tres, hah! Now, what am I going to write? I have to think. I got two hours left or I’m dead.

No phone since 2004

Most people who know me are quite puzzled why I don’t own a phone. These days cellphones have become a necessity like it’s something we can’t live without. So, maybe that’s the reason why they are intrigued that I don’t want to buy one for my self. Even the fish ball vendors and Manong Sorbetero have Nokia 5110. Yeah, I know it’s already phased out but at least they own a phone, unlike me.

Please don’t get me wrong, I mean they’re probably earning more than I do. What I’m just trying to say is that office girls like me need cellphones more than they do, right? I don’t know but I’m literally clueless about phone systems or cellphone brands or telephone companies, etc. I’ve been out of reach since 2004. The first cellphone that I got was a Nokia 3310 from my Dad, his gift for my 18th birthday. Unfortunately, my evil relative borrowed it, I didn’t want to lend it but I was too shy or polite to say no. The following morning, he just said he lost it.

Now, I have a china phone. It’s an imitation of Nokia E71 or E72. I think china phones are adorable :) It’s complete with TV, radio, email, Mp4, wifi, camera, video, etc. All features included in a very low price of 2,500 pesos. Brand new!
