Boom.

My mom was involved in an accident whilst going home at EDSA last night. Her car was rear ended by a red passenger bus which i'd reckon, had been going at a brisk pace because during the time the accident happened, there was very light traffic at EDSA. The good thing is, the car was hit spot on at the rear center, which means, nothing structural was affected, therefore only the door would be needed to replaced and it would be pretty much as good as new. Although in the state it's in right now, the door is pretty much ka-put, its destroyed literally, it can't be opened at all and it's stuck basically.


Another great thing is that the bus driver immediately admitted that it was his fault and the bus company he works for will shoulder the repair cost. Thank God for insurance!


The moral lesson here would be: be careful out there, especially on our hazardous roads. Try to avoid being beside big vehicles like trucks or buses because they have minimal visibility and more often that not, have little consideration towards the other smaller, plebeian vehicles they are sharing the road with.

Sleeping Habits.

My sleeping habit of late is starting to improve. At last, my erratic sleeping habits have started to improve because last night, I was able to sleep at 12 midnight which is definitely a lot better than my usual 3 am or 4 am "bedtime". I'd reckon if I start exercising and busying myself with important things, it'll make me tired earlier, therefore I can sleep earlier, therefore I can wake up earlier and feel good rather than me sleeping late and then waking up and feeling rough. If I keep this up, I think I can end this sleeping dilemma once and for all.

Sleep Early.

I need to sleep early, I am having a difficult time keeping myself awake during classes. These past few days i've been sleeping at 2, 3, or worse, even 4 in the morning. And what's worse is I need to wake up at 6:30 am to avoid tardiness. If I don't correct my sleeping habits, it'll surely start affecting my grades in school, which is not good.

Shot by Me. EOS 550D + EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 Non-IS.

I took a picture of the view from my classroom seat. The sun was shining beautifully above the surroundings and I thought it would be nice if I took a photo, so I did. And I decided to make it a panorama because my lens can't  cram the entire view so I took four consecutive sweeping shots from left to right and I stitched it all using Windows Live Photo Gallery. The result was surprisingly decent, I saw a few flaws but it was not noticeable. The result was very good and I am so chuffed with it that I decided to post it here. :)

Second Entry.

Like I mentioned in my first entry, I'd try to update this blog everyday. But I can't. So I won't update it everyday with word bloggy thingy posts. Instead i'll update this blog with random thingys like photos, videos, among other things just to make it more exciting. :) Cheers Lads.

Der erste eintrag. The first entry.

Since this is my first entry, I would like to talk about why I established this blog in the first place, the blog URL name (whatever you call it), who am I, what I do, what I like, what I'm planning to do with this blog and then some.

Why I made this.
I made this blog because I want someplace to write/vent/jot down thoughts that I want to write about. My thoughts range from the most mundane stuff you could think of to the most extraordinary of things. I just basically want to write about stuff I see, hear, see, smell, taste, use, watch, or take a picture of and everything else in between. I wanted to write in a place where I am free of the grammatical rules, formats, and other restrictions that I am imposed with when I write something unlike in school. And that is why this blog was made. :)

The Name.
Thinking of and choosing the name/url address for this blog is already a story in itself.  This blog's URL address is ichkannschreiben.blogspot.com. Ich kann schreiben is German for I can write. The reason why I named this blog "I can write" is because I want to write about stuff. I want to show others that I can write stuff.

Who am I.
I am (you can find my name somewhere here), and I am a high school student. My favorite interests/hobbies at the moment are cars and photography. Since I was young, I loved cars already. I would sit in them, touch them, fiddled with the buttons inside them, thought about how they work, how they affect us, how the world would become if they didn't exist and a lot more. I am a die-hard gearhead, I forced my self to learn how to drive at a very young age so I can drive as soon as I am old enough to get a license. I love cars because they reflect my personality somehow. Cars basically for me, stand for freedom, mobility, enjoyment, journey, among other things. I shall expound on these in other entries in the future. :)


What I do.
I study. I breathe. I eat, a lot actually. I drink. I sleep. Text. Facebook. Play, sometimes. and a lot more.

What I am planning to do with this blog.
I plan to update this blog everyday if I can, or at least weekly. Depends if time permits. I am a student that is imposed with schedules and a lot of work so to update this blog everyday would be a challenge.
