Different Types Of Writing


It sometimes surprises me too that I have been writing (mostly junk – teehee) for more than a decade. Where did the decade go? What have I got to show for it except for a blog that I try to keep alive? Anyway, if you asked me to categorize the type of writing and writers out there, I would say that you can basically divide the lot of us up into 15 different types.

Sounds like a lot but when you study them, they overlap. A blogger is also a content writer while a person who writes business proposals are also business writers. So on and so forth.

What kind of writer am I? I am a rubbish generator. =) Who occasionally make sense but most of the time, use words to spew complete nonsense to release work stress. Some may claim that I am a blogger but I disagree based on the fact that bloggers get no respect and looked down upon in the writing community, no? Well, looked down upon by the kind of writers who prefer to use really pompous words, anyway.

I am too lazy to think up of a pompous word and here is my theory, I am writing this for myself and people who want to read it…I would say there is a huge percentage of you who do not know what the word ‘impervious’ or ‘articulate’ or stuff like that mean. If you do know what the words mean, you are either a writer or a very well-read person. But ordinary people don’t like big words because it makes them feel small and make their brains work. How many people who read blogs do not mind opening up a new tab for Dictionary.com, right?

So, yeah, there are different types of writing which I will talk about another time. I think this is boring enough, so, now go nap.

Stargazer - Stretch Those Sides

I have been doing this pose, part of Cosmic Dance (a type of yoga, I am assuming), called Stargazer pose without knowing it is called Stargazer's pose a lot in the past. You see, sometimes, I don't follow the rules and come up with my own stretches and poses. It is fun. I have on some music, nice, soothing music or just anything I can click on. Then I go with the flow, letting my hair down. Just moving to the music...and that is when I come up with the above Stargazer's pose. This pose really stretches your sides. Keep your eyes on the outstretched hand if you are keeping it pointed to the top, as if you are waving or connecting to a higher energy from the Universe. Your arms will ache a little but hey, toned arms, here you come! :-) For those who want a bigger stretch, it is safe to slowly and gently move the lifted hand towards your back...don't overdo it, listen to your body's complaints and respect it. You don't have to prove anything to anyone, reme

Maid Side-Kick

I was kind of a little sad when I read the news about this - there will be no live-in Indonesian maids in Malaysia anymore . There are pros and cons to having a live-in maid, as with everything else, but for us, we enjoyed more pros than cons. Back then, when my kids were little, we brought in a family of maids to help with...well, just about everything, and we were like two families merged into one. They ate what we ate, we sleep, they sleep, we shop, they shop, they joke, we laugh, we joke, they laugh...for me, the maid I hired was more like a sister and side-kick to me. For that few years, I was dependent on her to mind-read my schedule and when I need or don't need help. She picked things up quickly and we ended up having lots of moments whereby we were in sync. Today, two of them are on my Facebook and we were gleefully chatting over Facebook Messenger since they've just discovered the wonders of the Internet and Social Media. Since we were more like partners in crim

Project Wolf Hunting (2022) - Film Review

Less than 10 minutes into the movie, I was already wondering why am I watching this show, and in the dead of the night.  But I was thinking to myself, I've toughened up quite a bit when it comes to things like these... Happiness , Signal , Sweet Home , Alice in Borderland , Vagabond , City Hunter , Tunnel ...these crime and sci-fi dramas and films I endured just so that I can watch my favorite actors in action...they must have really built me some mental muscles.  Usually, I am the late kind because I want to see what everyone has to say about it...so that I am prepared.  I will just present you with reasons to watch and reasons NOT to. Here goes.  REASONS TO WATCH If you like Seo In Guk , Jung So Min , Jang Dong Yoon , Sung Dong Il , or maybe even Im Ju Hwan , you might want to endure this film.  Hint : If you're a fan of Jang Dong Yoon, maybe watch it.  It's interesting. I know we have a lot of post apocalyptic world films all over the place now but this is a little diffe
