Because I am currently very elated because I finished my English PT (Advertisement Evaluation and Defense) and I'm quite satisfied with it, I shall not blog about the whole process anymore because aside from taking too much space, I think trying to remember every single detail would just destroy the whole experience (except, of course, when I have to give it to someone else) Anyway, this is just a blog post about writing long essays, which has become quite disadvantageous these past few weeks, despite my mindset that the longer the essay, the better, driving me since 2007. To prove that I could write shorter, I shall make this as short as possible. I'm happy right now. Not because I'm finally done, but because of how I wrote in those five days - full of burning passion, faith, and a inexorable desire to offer this to God.
Remember Literary Lessons, a chapter from Little Women? Jo "falls into a vortex" when the writing fit came on, "she gave herself up to it with entire abandon, and led a blissful life, unconscious of want, care, or bad weather, while she sat safe and happy in an imaginary world full of friends almost as real and dear to her as any in the flesh" (Alcott, 1869, p. 246) That's exactly what I felt when I wrote. I became so attached to it that I even found it hard to let go of it this morning. During that week, I was actually excited to go home just to see the paper. It was that intense. And for someone who would think of that kind of behavior as irrational, I don't regret anything. Amazing experience this was. To God be all the glory!
