I've been writing for a long time: poems, short stories, fan fiction, and some fantasy novels I never completed.
The first time I was asked "what do you want to be when you grow up?"
I answered, "a writer."
But my writing scores have never been good- always below my speaking or reading skills.
I'm bilingual: Burmese is my mother tongue and English is my second language.
My grades haven't been really great at either one's essay writings.
But I love to write. And I still want to be writer.
So over a decade later, I ask myself again.
"What do you want to be when you grow up?" Because we never stop growing.
"A writer," I answered again.
So I stepped out of my comfort zone of writing alone in the dark corner of my .doc files and releasing them into the world.
Like birds, I guess. I hope my writings land in the right person's world.
One day, I'm gonna lie in my old comfy bed at like 60-70 and then read what I wrote or listen to my loved ones read to me what I wrote: something like the Notebook movie.
Well, that is all.
