"English is my favourite subject and it'll never change." This is how I'd answered to most people who asked me what was my favourite subject in the past and to let you know, it still is - in the present. From learning alphabets to grammars and new vocabularies for the past 18 years of my life from kindergarten, middle school to high school and now university; my favourite subject never failed to surprise me as my eagerness to learn and explore them starts to grow bigger and bigger in my heart, mind and soul.
English language has been my sole of confidence every single time in class; always hoping to get the highest mark in the class while I have my ups and downs of course where I may get the second highest or even a tie with a classmate whose English was great too. I loved those silly yet fun competitions as I start to wonder what I wanted to do with the language I fell in love with since young other than just competing - Write.
Starting from simple sentences like "I like an apple" to writing more longer and higher standard sentences was how I came to love writing essays and stories and even blogs. Sentences surprises me in a way that it connects the next sentence that I'll write on a piece of paper with pencil leads and ink pens continuously without fail. Each sentences has a meaning and the 'meaning' behind it has a sense of satisfactory completion in each completed sentences. They are like trains that continues to move as you write them without stopping as the overflowing words slowly starts to form sentence by sentence and into an essay. Even if you only know a thousand of vocabularies and simple sentences, essays can be formed easily if you take up the effort and think properly on what you want to write.
Writing essays enables me to express my innermost feelings without moving that lips of mine. Essays can be hard to be written within an hour when you're starting to learn how to write an essay of 120 words in the past, but as you practise to write simple essays with the thoughts of sentences forming in that brain of yours; you'll write them automatically without even doing mind maps and points at the side, on a paper to let yourself refer to it while you write. Forming sentences is the first step as you step on the second by writing short essays. It worked for me.
It gave me a sense of peacefulness and happiness when I write and that little happiness in me grew even larger than I expected as I discover numerous blogging websites. Since then, I started writing without fail as I express my thoughts through words of writing. Being able to write made me really happy since I was able to express my opinions in another way instead of using sound as my source of expressing my thoughts. I was quite the quiet child in the past and maybe even now at times as I was always afraid of talking where I might hurt someone's pride or maybe even offend or insult a person just by telling funny jokes and riddles. Communication through social life feared me horribly as I continued to stay as quiet as possible so I wouldn't hurt someone and make someone dislike me just because of that one word, sentence or even opinion that I give or voice it out. But as I write, I realised talking is good too since writing may not be as 'famous' or 'well-known' than talking since voicing out opinions and doing presentations are all using sound as a source of sharing and presenting. That's why, I'm starting to learn how to give honest opinions without insulting or hurting a person's heart and pride.
Blogging can be said its like 'breathing' to me. Without writing, I'd probably be a person who undergoes depression right now. It helped me to express my anger, my advices and most of all, myself as I write anything that comes out of my mind with a meaning behind it of why I form that sentence and who I want to dedicate these sentences to - The readers. I want to inspire people with my inspirational writings and I do hope they get inspired. From travelling blogs to inspirational blogs, I want to share my essays to the people who would read my blog till the end even though it may be long.
You can type on keyboards or even write on papers since it'll still turn out to be a sentence you made and want to continue the next. Writing helped me to understand myself and yes, I am still currently to learn more about myself as I continue to write blogs that would inspire you guys through my experiences. These experiences are real as I share them with everyone who reads it and maybe get inspired by my essay blogs. Through writing, I was able to learn how to love myself and my skills in writing as I thought writing wasn't something to be brag about to other people in the past since it wasn't something 'great' or 'useful'. I might not be great at most things but I do know how to write properly to express myself with happiness through experiences that I have encountered in my past and recent life into essays filled with words that would explain my point of views clearly.
"I love writing and I don't and won't care about what people would say like I'm nerdy or whatnot; because this defines me and I'll live with that for the rest of my life." - Shannon
Just like the ocean continues to roar about their beauty of nature; I continue to write about my life experiences to inspire people.
