Yup, I was recently hit by writer’s block. Usually, when I don’t have new posts, it’s because of a busy schedule, no Internet connection or problems with my hosting, etc. But this time, it was just simply because I didn’t have anything to talk or write about. I guess this happens to all bloggers or writers once in a while, right? Earlier, like two or three days ago, I’ve been planning to make a new post. But I just couldn’t find or think of anything. It was like my mind was blogging blank. Hehe. Dunno if there’s a term like that.
Aside from checking my mails and logging to my Friendster & Myspace accounts, I’ve been busy playing Wolfenstein - Enemy Territory. An online, multiplayer, first person shooter pc game, which is a sequel to Return to Castle Wolfenstein. This game is FREE. It was intended to be a commercial expansion pack but due to some problems, the company decided to release it as a free standalone game. You can download the game here.
One thing I love to buy aside from gadgets or electronics are shoes. I bought new kicks the other day. Wasn’t really planning on buying but we were in the mall and my wife asked me if I wanted to buy something. At first, I said I didn’t want to buy anything. But later on, I finally decided to buy a new pair of shoes.
Baby update: Baby Matthew is now 23 weeks-old. He’s quite a kicker. Also, my wife got two books about pregnancy.

@eric - siguro if it’s for photographers, you can call it “shooter’s block” since you shoot photos. i also experience this sometimes, i bring my camera with me, have the chance to take a photo but too lazy to take it out. hehe. thanks for adding me up.
@rose - ayan, nakapagpost na ako ng bagong entry, kahit na joke lang. wala talage eh. ingat din and God bless you and your family.
@major tom - you can check out some of the tips that the others have posted in their comments. maybe it can help you out in the near future.

I also have this kind of thing every now and then and when it comes, I just could not do anything about it. I wonder if this thing called “wroter’s block” is one of a malady; maybe doctors have some drug to cure it, or something…

@laarni - thanks for the tip and for dropping by.
@jim - you, writer’s block? i don’t think so. you’re just too busy and preoccupied with other things. i luv white kicks. hehe. thanks, my wife is relieved and relaxed after she got the result. God is really good.
@rose - hello! sorry, wala pang bagong post pag daan mo. eto, nag-iisip na ako kung anong pwedeng topic.
@ade - ei, long time no see. soon-to-be father. hehe. thanks man!
@trench - yeah, i like the classic too. since you mentioned it, the next time i buy kicks, it’s gonna be the classic and or the AirForce Ones! hehe
the baby’s doin well so far. he moves and kicks a lot. my wife said, everytime the baby moves the feeling in her stomach is like when she’s riding the rollercoaster.

Those shoes are nice. I only wear the classics though. I have white ones, black ones, and brown ones. I’ve gone thru at least 10 pairs of white K-swiss just the last couple years. The only other shoes I sport are Classic NB’s and AirForce Ones! CRISPY WHITE PURRS!@! hahaa. Hows the baby coming along?
September 9th, 2006 at 12:59 pm

Also, i didn’t know that you’re a father already. congratulations!

i go to message boards and get ideas, too. it helps sometimes. hehe.
September 4th, 2006 at 5:03 am
@jam - yeah, i guess it’s normal for writers and bloggers.
@kolletzki - actually, that’s a good advice. coz if it’s something na naisip nya, he can use his imagination or inspiration to write about it.
@tommmy - i don’t have a specific preference for white shoes, but white kasi is a neutral color so kahit anong damit pwede mo ibagay. oo nga, ang sapatos pag sa Pinas mo ginamit madaling dumumi. dito hindi. hehe
@bigmac - sure. i’ve added you to my blogroll.
@rose - ako, hindi madalas bumili? oo pag walang pera. pero kapag meron, naku..ubos agad kasi madami akong nakikita. hehe. yup, there are some things that are too personal to blog about.
@trench - thanks for the tip.
@jhay - that’s what i also do but the thing is, i seldom get good or funny emails. hehe. thanks!
@ash - oo nga pero pag several days kang walang bagong entry, minsan hindi na bumabalik ang ibang visitors mo. thanks! yeah, alagang-alaga nga eh. hehe
@gbert - thank you. God bless you too.

We all experience writer’s block. We just differ in how we get around it. My trick is that I post the funny e-mails forwarded to me by my friends.
While that is taken care of, I just walk away from the pc and go out. Meet my friends, watch TV anything else not related to blogging on being online. I t really helps in refreshing one’s mind.
Best wishes on the pregnancy.

pareho tayo gustong gusto ko puting sapatos, malinis kasing tignan, pero di ako maingat sa sapatos, isang linggo lang parang 1 yr old kaagad. o baka marumi lang talaga ang daan sa pinas.
ako naman kahit may alam i post di ko alam kung paano sasabihin, writer’s block din ba yun?
September 1st, 2006 at 4:09 pm
natural lang yan, may mga kaibigan akong blogger laging nagtatanong kung ano ang magandang i-post, suggestion ko sa kanya yung kahit anong papasok sa isip nya, hehehe. mukhang mahirap yung suggestion ko

I guess we all experience writer’s block. Not at all times we can think of something good to post. It has happened to me several times when I was still active on Xanga.
