Starbucks
I'm at Starbucks right now, although I can't use the internet to log onto Blogger, I can't keep from writing. Yes, I'm distracting myself with time wasting writing. But I need a break. I just made a graph of components about Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) and drawing out the aspect of the direction my paper is going to be about within MetS. Quite creative I must say. Anyways, I'm looking at the most interesting thing across my table. A father and son enjoying cupcakes and coffee. I'm not sure what's in the little boy's cup, maybe hot chocolate. But seeing these two people and their connection is the sweetest thing. The father is well in his 40's I believe. Dressed business-like with a tie, tuck-in button-down white shirt, and penny-loafers. The boy is in Elementary school, I can tell by his uniform and ninja turtle back pack. Now, the boy has his composition notebook out and the father is asking questions and looking at his notebook. It's such a delight to see his attention to his kid. But why out here, in the public eyes? Isn't this a place not quite for kids to do homework because of loud noise and other distractions? Well, as for me, I have headphones on and currently listening to David's Choi rendention of 'How Deep is your Love'. I'm doing that for me so I'll be less distracted from the noise, but I'm distracted anyways. I'm bored from writing my senior thesis, and instead writing about non-sense. At least I'm making it sound like I'm busy at work with my typing behind my laptop to the guy across from me studying. I wish I was a real writer. But my grammar is bad. One good factor, the thought process is there. If I write more, with construction from a second view, possible deconstruction I must admit, I might turn into a real writer. I need to read newspapers more often. Maybe get ideas and actually talk to a writer and have their opinion about my writing. For now, my observation and writing skills just have to suffice. But isn't this how journalists start? I don't know after I start working, this would be one of my hobbies. I found one! I'm adding it to my list of To Do's. Start a career in Journalism. LOL. I do enjoy writing. Been doing it for a long time now. Just about random stuff maybe. Can I get column in a newspaper from random writing? I guess not. That's why there are blogs. Hey, it can happen right? I can dream. F5 for date and time [5:04 PM 3/4/2009]
