"I guess if you are truly a writer, you are compelled to write"

I have always thought that being a journalist, a writer, a columnist [especially a columnist] is a very cool job. Saya sangat suke tulis, and until recently, I never thought that I could be lack of ideas [sbb selalunye ada walaupon merapu], i.e. until I am compelled by others to write. Heh. Sebabnye: I am a firm believer that what I write is a reflection on who I am, what I believe in, dan mungkin akan ade influence on others, maka setiap kali menulis, akan cube tulis apa yang saya rase betol pada saat saya menulis itu [BETUL itu adalah subjective kan?]. Maka, saya hanye akan tulis bile saya feel strongly about something, maka, bile diarahkan untuk menulis, agak sukar la kan. [P/S: Check out the pic of my previous worplace. Heh]
Works menanti diriku [minus the academic work loads]:

1) CLEO magazine called me and asked for a commentary/critic for their birthday bash issue. Bab mengkritik, saya amat suke. Tapi bile disuruh, alahai susahnye.

2) Fadlin asked me to write an article for annual law society magazine, on Marliza's study scheme [or something macam tu la- camne saya belaja] Being a lazy bum I am, I told her the truth, saya ni pemalas, camne kalau org lain ikut cara saya dan tak berjaya?! Fadlin cakap, it's up to them la. Cara belaja org lain2. Kalau tak berjaya cara tu, takpela. Yang penting, nak tau saya belaja camne. The stumbling block here: saya myself tak tau camne saya belaja. Hmmph. Maybe I could just merepek, and tell them the truth [of course I will. A writer writes from the heart, remember?], and ppl can opt for Anwar's study scheme [since Fadlin asked him to do one as well- his should be 100 times better than mine, rajinnye masyaAllah.] Huwa huwa.

Ah well. Writer's block.
