Shortcut Generation

You think you're a writer because, well, you enjoy Kerouac and Hemingway, and like to jot down entries on a Moleskin notebook.

Your dad bought you a shiny new SLR and now suddenly you're a photographer.

You can write "working" code and you start calling yourself a software engineer.

Work on your craft until you start living and breathing it or just give up. Mastery is not something you can get on discount.

    Hey, I should be the one learning Japanese! Hahaha. You should go and make time to get a life. Masama ang burnout for our age. Saan ka pala based ngayon? Cebu pa rin? You better move here to Manila, Adik. Ako, eto. Webcontent writer sa isang webdesign company. Limited na ang vocabulary ko. Haha.
