the inescapability of drama
(Oh yeah, for those not used to reading the way the Japanese do, the page reads right to left.)
Never thought I'd see the day when even the characters from the Naruto comics would resort to saying things this emo, even with Jiraiya (the guy with the big hairdo) smiling and all, thus proving the fact that going into that sentimental phase when one just starts spouting things that would have them get laughed at is really that hard to avoid.
Want proof? Just ask anyone in the Comm Arts batch 2005, with the recent mania of (the Globe users, at least) spamming group messages containing every "realization" (note: random insights that may or may not be useful and may or may not make any sense to the reader) they come across.
Yes, I know, these random insights will probably have no use and will probably make no sense to you, unless you know exactly what I'm talking about.
This is what happens when real life gets in the way so many times that your thoughts can't catch up. Think about it: would a person who just spent the whole day seeing things happen and making things happen have enough time and energy left at the end of the day to crystallize the day's worth of experiences, thoughts and insights into words?
That's the hard part with writing, methinks: when nothing's happening to you, you have enough time and energy in your hands to think of and consequently write about a lot of things, but when a lot of things are happening to you, chances are your time and energy are too little to waste on thinking and writing about things, therefore you think about nothing, which is kinda like not thinking about anything...
*apologizes for the disjointed junk he just wrote and goes to sleep, since he's really starting to think he just wrote a piece of random crap into this blog for the sake of making a post, and seriously hopes that he can come up with something better soon*

oh franco, have you read my blog recently? *wide-eyed mukhang baliw smiley*
ika nga ni Sarah Crespo sa kanyang recent blogpost, kailangan ng drama para sa catharsis. Wahaha.
@Krista: Yep. Never got the chance to write a reply though. Stupid fickle internet connection.
@Ilia: But what comes after the catharsis? Post-catharsis drama that'll eventually lead to another catharsis?
Ewan. Gitna na siguro ng sem kaya nagdadrama na naman ang lahat. Waaaa.
