chapter 4 page 74

i usually read a book while riding on a train going to and from work. and like the usual, i was reading a book once on a drizzling day. though the train was a bit packed than the usual and i will be left standing until  my last stop probably, this did not stop me from my reading.

so there i was with legs getting a bit sore from trying hard not to fall flat on this fast moving train when i opened chapter 4. moving forward until around the end of the chapter, the scenes got into me. somehow i felt what the character felt. the character on a last note, unable to keep her mouth shut, uttered words of thanks in honor of a dead pal and the crowd respected her more for that. they even gave her the sign which was only used in her district to show their appreciation.

i was so engrossed with this scene that my eyes began to swell. what?!?!?! though this is a bit common when watching ultraemotional daily life movies, this is a first while reading a book. i immediately stopped and concentrated to keep those moist from welling (and eventually fall as tears). i'm sure the people around me would also find it weird, sobbing while reading a book surely isn't common. i wouldn't even acknowledge myself if a single tear would fall. water from eyes, please go away. suck them all back in, eyes... with all my might it eventually ceased. good grief! and now, it is nothing but a good laugh.

try reading the book and see for yourself. just let the emotions flow and wait for the dreaded chapter 4. hmmm... but you have to read the first book to have a full gist of the story i think. nonetheless, it is still a good read.

catching fire.

while riding the train... or rather, while going home

what can you write, or blog while inside the train?

one day i asked myself this question. i was actually planning to cheat, i tried to start while still in the office. and then i refrained by deciding to start writing while waiting for the train. waaaah. a complete failure.

i certainly cannot write while walking. and certainly not while running trying to catch my train ride. my train arrived right away completely failing my plan.

so here i am inside, sitting comfortably... or was i? my seatmate was really big, i can't hardly move my left shoulder. but still i've got to try or this experiment would fail.

wow... 3 stations have passed and yet i am still searching for the memo, or the notepad. this really sucks. i cannot find a medium to write in.

finally found notes and started writing the first few paragraphs (or rather sentences) and then i have to transfer trains. wow. how long can i keep up with this?

and here i am standing inside (don't i have any new words to use?). nowhere to sit now but yet writing frantically my thoughts. can i finish or not? hmmmmm.

good grief! notes is full. so new page it is then....

it seems that the longer i write, the more hindrance comes. and i need to transfer trains again.

this is insane. i am cheating. writing while waiting for the train  to arrive is definitely not part of the plan.

and here i am now. just arrived at my last stop and yet is still writing. hmmmm. 1sentence while riding the escalator. another 1 while getting out of the station gate.... maybe i should just change my aim, this is no longer a blog while riding the train. this is a blog while going home!!!!

ooopz this is scary, writing while crossing the street. if i stumble, this is not a good enough reason. very shameful.

inside the elevator now. and planning not to get out just so i can finish this sentence. insane!

and i just asked "why are you cooking?".

this is ridiculous.

last part. and here is the end. i am home.

time for a picture.

(ba't ba kasi rotated 'tong picture na to???? ang hirap naman.... paano ba to irotate?)

(while reading back, this post is totally nonsense. i am very sorry for your time wasted. :D)
