Hello World,

Lately, actually. . I would probably say "Rarely", I have been having doubts of things here and there. Of course, it being rare occurrence; it hasn't really effected me in a great way. Though, if I kept it going I'm sure it'll impact me later on. I don't know what it is. . I think I might have lost motivation for some things and a lot for others.

Though, I'll pull through eventually. I realized that there are people who have done worse than me and have came up to almost the top. That means I will be able to reach even higher limits. .

It's not that I need to find a new motivation or drive. It's that I'm lacking a bit of both here and there. So I guess I'll have to add more motivation and drive to myself. from here on out, My life will be a complete maelstrom of success. . I promise this.

Thank you for listening,

- Vinh.

Finally!

2010-06-11T19:19:00.000-07:00

Hello World!,

Me and a friend have gotten together to make a band, hopefully everything will
work out. I'm serious, He's serious, and our drummer is serious. Just
got myself a Receiver and two speakers for singing so we should be
set, was our last unchecked item on the list.

Finished working out my singing schedule as well, hopefully I can
make my voice stronger than it is. Yuri and Taeyeon will be there
in spirit! :) :).

Hwaiting,

- Vinh.

Where has it gone?

2010-04-25T05:54:00.000-07:00

Hello World,

I was thinking back, way back in the days, when I had motivation and inspiration that I just let go. I wonder, what would happen if I really did follow the motivation? where would I be today? would I be further in life than I am now? or would it be worse, or even the same as it is today. It's been bugging me. . the fact that I could have done more but I did not. It's really a hard thing to think about now. .

but I guess I should not dwell on it too much. Just a thought for your penny kind of thing.

- Vinh.

Smiley Faces and what not.

2010-04-13T20:53:00.001-07:00

Hello World,

Just signing in to post something again. Trying to keep a daily trend, it
helps me set at least some goals.

Well, where to start. I looked back on the past today and realized, regardless
of how It was, I missed those days. If I was able to go back in time and if
I HAD to change one thing, I wouldn't. Because what happened in the past
made me who I am today, whether it be a bad thing or not. But thanks to that,
I've met a bunch of great people and learned oh so much. I'm sure I won't be
as successful as I want to be, but hey I can't complain; life's short and life is
an unfair gamble. I'll work with what I have and I'll be damn proud about it.

So I'm done whining and I'm done with all of this procrastination. I'm going to
set goals for myself regardless of who says what I can or cannot do. I'll take it
in and just set it aside because the only words I have to listen to, are mine.
The words that count. I'll believe and I'll fight back, Just as hard. "You only
live life once", a good friend of mine has told me. So I will live my life
proudly. I will strain myself as much as I can with goals and set new heights.

It's about damn time I figured this out. I'll make it through and I'll look back
on this post and realize that everything I've done, was because of my words of courage.

Thank you world for listening,
Until next time.

- Vinh H Nguyen.

Hmmm?

2010-04-08T21:17:00.001-07:00

Hello World!

It's me again. Just wanted to jump on my blogger and just post something.
I should do this more frequently, I guess it'll be a new goal of mine.
Anyways, I guess I can talk about things like; my new book that I am writing.
It's a love story, I can't really say much about it cause I'm only 8 chapters
in. But I feel like it'll turn into a K-drama later on, haha. Oh well.

I've been listening to SNSD a lot lately. . well not lately; for a while now
actually haha. That's ok though ;) regardless of what my friends think. Kwon Yuri has
been my motivation lately, for drawing and writing my book. School as well.
I hope she knows that she inspires me ;( haha, oh do I sound like a loser ;P.

well, that's all. Hopefully I'll get some new writing pieces up for my literature
dump. Until Then!!

Hello~

2010-04-05T22:31:00.001-07:00

Hey there :)
long time no? well I've been better. How are you? good to hear.
Just coming on to post a short post to link you to a recent short
story I wrote.

http://eternusfabula.blogspot.com/2010/04/light-of-darkness.html

you can find it there :)

Hope you enjoy!!

There are things. .

2010-03-11T20:41:00.000-08:00

I've realized. . that one day, I'll pack up and die. Though, it is a great fear of mine. . not knowing when or how I will. Though, it's a fear in general for the human population; the fact that you know nothing of a certain thing. I wish I could not fear it. . but Death, regardless of how you put it; cannot be NOT feared. It's tough.

That is why. . I want to live my life with a carefree feeling. With no regrets and enjoy it with my friends and family. I admire the people who already do. But. . I also realize that. . maybe at some points in life, you will be reminded of the problems stated above. So what do you do then? it's mere will power that can shatter it.

I have high expectations in life nowadays. . Thanks to two great friends, They've made me realize something important. They may not know it and they may not see this but they surely have impacted my life.

I have high goals in life, maybe that is why I give up easily. You can't just set high standards and expect to achieve it, no matter who you are. You have to set standards around your comfort and build off of it. I realize that I will never meet my celeberity crush Kwon Yuri or have a single conversation with her. Maybe because she's Korean and I'm sure she wouldn't understand a lot of the things I would talk about. But that is still something I realize. . and yet. . and yet I live my days like i would. This is something I do not understand.

It's more than mere admiration and obsession. This is something else. I feel like, I feel like I could meet her and have that conversation that I've always wanted with her. . no matter the person to tell me that it is a longshot. Life is only given meaning by the person who set foot on land first. Everything is built around that sole person. .

Everyone is contradicting. . no matter the person. That is how people are. . and how they always will be. That statement is contradicting itself. . though, it sounds so right.

Another random vent/rant. . I feel better now. . .

Here's to future lady luck. .

- Vinh. H Nguyen.

Alive? Indeed I am. Very much so to speak~

2009-08-17T09:26:00.000-07:00

Long time no blog, haven't really been able to get on this much (lie).
Summer's been great. . and it's starting to get really hot now. . as it ends of
course, gotta love where I live.

in about 2-3 weeks, School starts up again for me but this time it's the real deal :P.
I can't sleep away my classes anymore :(. . damn haha. well, hopefully I'll be ready. Just trying to relax as much as I can before that happens.

Plus, I have a twitter now: http://twitter.com/kitsuji
it's also on the side bar where my other links are. I don't know, if you want to follow up on it then go ahead :P. My daily postings are pretty funny I guess. . haha

Much Love,
Vinh N.

It would be. . .just a little. .

2009-07-22T10:44:00.000-07:00

be nice to walk into the world with your dreams already given to you with a envelope filled with money and your beloved soul mate next to your side. . but you know how life is and it's a lot more fun this way; not knowing what your going to get or what will happen to you. Experience is a hell of a thing but embracing it and applying it is even more of a thrill. ;). .

much love to all.
- Vinh N

Which was it?. . .

2009-07-08T10:46:00.001-07:00

I think the best advice that has ever been given to me was
"Keep your Head up. . we've all been through it"

This was said to me today and it kinda hit me hard; in a good way.
I felt a little spice of reality today but it was a good experience,
I won't take things lightly anymore and neither should anyone else.

Go and do your best. .

Here's to the King who changed everything with his voice-

2009-06-25T17:07:00.001-07:00

Rest in Peace,
Michael Jackson - Finally, You'll get the peace and recognition you deserve.

I can't believe it, it hit me fast and it was enough to make my day go from great to horrible; no wonder why it rained suddenly. The world just lost a legend. I don't believe he did anything people say, it's all the critics and their way of demolishing peoples reputation.

I don't understand how people can be so ignorant, really. Though, People are given their freedom of speech and their opinion is entitled with that but, There are limits to where and when a person can say things. This is such a matter. This man just died and he deserves respect of a dieing man regardless of what he did. De-humanizing is disgusting really. .

To you Michael Jackson - I wish there was more time for you. Life must have been an adventure for you. Your skills had changed people and it takes a lot for a single man or woman to do such change.

Thank you and Good bye.
- Vinh

Graduation~

2009-06-22T11:06:00.000-07:00

Long time no blog,
Well. . Summer has started and well. .
it's getting more boring every day. .
Sure I may hang out with my friends but we
don't hang out too much; maybe like a day here
or two. But, Graduation is coming up for me, the 27th
to be exact. . It ends my Chapter of Highschool and well,
I couldn't be more happier in my life and I couldn't
be any more depressed. It felt like it went by too
fast and I won't get to see my under classmen friends
as much; but I'm glad we got close this year.

Well. . I've been drawing lately and I was hoping to
get my Comic/Manga online for people to see. .
I'll probably Procrastinate in the end. . haha.
I'm also trying to get a Band together but still need
to talk to one more person to make it final and I have to
have a jam session with each of them to find out what
I can do skill wise. . but yeah,

here's to a new chapter in life, Literally!!. .

- Vinh

The finale draws near. .

2009-06-09T13:26:00.000-07:00

Four more days of school . . and it's no longer weeks of attending it is just mere days. . The end draws near. . it was a long run but it was quick. . I don't know if I'm ready to dive into life. . but I guess I'll just have to deal with what I am given and make way with it.

- Vinh

. . . .

2009-05-26T03:27:00.000-07:00

People are born with limitations; they can only do so much in their life. . . I believe that I am reaching my limit. . I need help. . I need something more in my life if I want more motivation. I'm not happy with what I am anymore. What has happened to me effected me like any other person. I just fall into worse things over and over again, I never have a single good thing happen to me. I treat people kindly and do good things for the community. . and how does it repay me, rejection, rude remarks, racism, and violence.

Things are unfair to me in life and I understand that life isn't fair but it can't be that unfair. . seriously, what the hell? Don't you dare call me an "Emo". . no I'm not one, I'm a happy kid. . I just have problems that I need to overcome.

Make or break. . that is the question in my head right now.

Happy Mommy day~

2009-05-09T19:51:00.000-07:00

Here’s to a mother who wanted a doctor but had a writer; but loved him too much not to complain otherwise. Happy mothers day, I love you mom and always will regardless of our hard times because we've had so much more good ones.

I've written a little poem for my mom.
----------------------------------------------

You nurtured me when I was little
You taught me my first words.
You gave me warmth when I was cold
You gave me coolness when I was hot
You sang to me when I was unease in my slumber.
You wiped away those darn tears of mine.

You let me go on my own
Yet you kept the leash close.
You wanted to meet my sweethearts to push them away (chuckle)
But that’s ok, I didn’t mind.
You only wanted the best for me.

I’ve grown into someone
It may not have been what you wanted
But you love me enough to not care.
For I love you in the same way.

We may have had our hard times
But there are so many good times.
When dad wasn’t there, you made things better.
When he was there, you made things a lot better (chuckle) / (sob).

You’ve watched me grow into someone.
Now its time for me to repay you.
With words like these, I may look cheap.
But it’s not the price of the gift;
It’s the effort and kindness that counts.
It’s the soul that conveys the letters that matters.

And nothing can mean more than these three simple words.
“I love you.”

Happy Mothers day.

- Vinh H. Nguyen

CAUTION: Spring break sucks. . .

2009-04-23T07:08:00.000-07:00

My spring break is horrible. it's finally coming to an end but I haven't done anything exciting except sit around the house, drawing and playing video games. I mean, it's not too bad doing the things I like but still. I wish there were more "Umph" to it if you know what I mean. . . ugh

AND MY GUITAR IS STILL NOT HERE!. . . what the hell! :(. . .
well, I'm still alive; barely.

- Vinh

Golden Flowers bloom in my head.

2009-04-21T09:08:00.001-07:00

Spring Break, yay!. . . no.

This spring break sucks; I'm home and sick, I don't know what's wrong either. All of my friends that I want to hang out with are gone or they are too busy with other stuff.

whatever,
posted a new short story on Eternus Fabula, it's a two part so yeah.
That story was the first of mine to write because the elements I put into it are what I am kind of going through. . . actually I "went" through. oh well, enjoy.

- Vinh

Disguise and Judgement-

2009-04-17T03:28:00.000-07:00

Fancy title right? well this post has nothing to do with any of that. . . haha.

Just wanted to inform anyone who reads this blog that I will be posting up
short stories on my literature dump page which can be found to your right
side of your screen. I haven't been able to really post them up (thats a lie)
because I've been busy (That is a lie as well) with things.

Though I am still mad. . that my guitar is STILL NOT IN!
GRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
. . . yeah. . . I want my baby roxanne now D:. . I miss her
and I haven't even seen her :(. . . damn UPS and their ways
of delivering. . . grr. .

oh well.

Beware, criminal. . . || Happy Egg day.

2009-04-12T14:36:00.000-07:00

First off, I'd like to say happy egg day. . to anyone who actually visits my blog.
this is the only time that a grown man can hunt eggs with little kids and having it look right :-/ . . . not like I do it all the time. . . WHAT!, These eggs have money in them! :(. . don't judge me!
------------------------------

Now,
I'm going to be ranting. . . because I can!. Well, lately a lot of stress has gotten onto me; It feels like a time where you dig a hole so deep you can't get yourself out of except this hole wasn't created by you. I've been constantly walked over on because people think that they can take advantage of me because I am a nice guy; this pisses me off. I don't understand how the people I trust can do that, it really just boggles my mind. ugh, It's hard to find genuine people nowadays someone told me and its true, I'm starting to close myself off from a lot of people now because of what happened; and I just recently started to open up. I still can't believe that people can treat me like that. . . just because I am nice doesn't mean I can be walked over on; I'll still retaliate. .

rant off, have a nice day those
who view this :).

- Vinh

Inspiration

2009-04-10T11:10:00.000-07:00

Inspiration,
where do I get mine from? a lot of things actually.
I get a lot of inspiration for my writing from my friends and family. what they do every day will usually send a spark into my head and create an idea. My art however is a different story, I draw from the inside. All the back up emotions from the day before or at the current time will fuel my hand to move to create an art. The same as my music. I feel the music improvise from within me, from my heart and my mind. everything around me is inspiration; even random events/occurrences will fuel it. My Inspiration comes spontaneously. . .

how about you? have you ever wondered what inspired you to do something?
like what inspired you to say what you said or do what you did? There are times where inspiration comes so fast you don't even know about it, you just do what you have to and forget about it; do you think you can remember a certain time like that?

just think about it, I'm sure something will inspire you to remember ;)

The Man who stands against many but conforms to them as well

2009-01-29T16:17:00.000-08:00

"The Man who stands against many but conforms to them as well"
a good quote I created out of the air within two seconds. Silly me . . .

OH WELL!. . .

long time no blog,

doubt anyone reads this but If you have then you'll know
that I haven't been posting any new chapters of Eternus Fabula;
that is because of school work.

YES I BLAME SCHOOL!. . and my laziness somewhat. .

well, I will be, however, posting short stories on Eternus Fabula because
it fits the name "Eternal Fable". So if you still are there, anyone. .

Bueller. .. Bueller. . .Bueller

then please check my Eternal Fable here and there, I promise I'll try to post
some new Short stories ;).

take care~

Gah, insert swear words here. . just kidding :-)

2008-11-03T12:21:00.001-08:00

Oh god, RANTS!!

hmm. . . nothing I really want to rant about. . except. . .

nope. . nothing.

Vinh N.

Yay another update?

2008-08-12T07:13:00.000-07:00

Well I'm going to go on a little rant after I say this and all; so what, I CAN RANT!.

Well who ever is reading; I doubt you know that I play an online game called Final Fantasy XI.
(here comes a little rant) so what if you think I'm a nerd cause I play an online game; are you going to let a little thing like that change your views on me? For people who know me I'm pretty out going, I'm not one to isolate myself in my room for hours or anything. I go out and have fun and hang out with my friends. Yea usually I sit down and play this game all day to escape from reality but hey, I think we all known reality sucks balls. There :-).

O.K about Chapter 3, It's gone; in other words I accidently deleted it because I'm a loser.
I'll get it up in about a day or maybe earlier. I gotta get into that writing mood again because between me and you, I wing it sometimes when I write hehe. well, Enjoy the upcoming chapter.

-- Vinh
Kit to many others;

Hmmm. . .

2008-08-04T16:24:00.000-07:00

You have to realize that most Christian "moral values" behaviour is not really about "protecting" anyone; it's about their desire to send a continual stream of messages of condemnation towards people whose existence offends them. - Darth Wong

I found this quote interesting, well I'm not too religious myself but it makes perfect sense to me.

well. . . idk where to start. should I talk about my day? who ever looks at this probably doesn't care but to those that do . . I had a wonderful day, thank you. . haha.

I'll be posting up Chapter 3 when... ever I feel like it, proof reading needs to be done and if any spots any out go ahead and tell me.

Vinh
kit ( '3')/

You know. . .

2008-07-25T09:27:00.000-07:00

It's been way too long from me actually...
well updating anything hehe.

well I've decided to scrap what I have for Eternus Fabula
and re do it. I've had several ideas on the plane ride to Vietnam, my time IN Vietnam, and plane back from Vietnam.

I hope you like it, who ever is watching.. :-P

Finally back

2007-09-24T13:01:00.000-07:00

It's been a very long time since I've even gotten to get on my blog. School, work, and etc.
I assure you that Eternus Fabula will be updated, maybe not as much but its going to be faster than the 3 month hiatus. Well stay tuned for updated :-).

~Kit

Revisions

2007-03-11T06:07:00.000-07:00

Revisions made on the Epilouge have been made. It makes more sense now.

2007-02-20T19:43:00.000-08:00

The Epilogue is posted in my Story blog as I like to call it. heres the link if your too lazy to move your mouse to the right column.

Eternus Fabula - Official Blog

Note: I'll be posting updates here just incase people want to get caught up or just check the Other blog weekly for a chapter or two.

Eternus Fabula - About it

2007-02-19T20:19:00.000-08:00

Well, I've decided to make use of this Blog in a very wierd yet educational kinda way. Though my writing skills look like that lack in some places is basicly because I dont find it too much of a challenge, I kind of quit and all and dont feel the need to do anything. I have a unique kind of way of writing, If you have read books written by "J.D. Salinger, you'll probably get a jist of what my writing skills are. I use his techniques aswell as others but I have my own kind of writing style. Well lets cut to the chase shall we? dont think anyone wants to read into my Literature side too much, hell even I fall asleep just thinking of it.

Well I have posted this up because I grow tired of things and I need something to do in my spare time; I really want to make use of this blog. I am going to be writing a story, Fiction actually, because I cant seem to express my imagination/thoughts in my artist style (not that im saying I cant but I just take too long in class to doodle...). This story, novel or what ever you want to call it, I dont care really, Is called "Eternus Fabula" (Literally meaning: Eternal Fable in latin). The story is actually a prequel to another story of mine, which I sort of kept a secret. Its a prequel because... its a prequel, dont ask.

The story takes place in an Empire, for those of you who dont know what an Empire is, it is basicly a group of nations owned by an Emperor or Empress. This empire is known as "Eisen" in this story. Eisen is one of the most feared Empires out of all, it has Military power enough to take over the world although Eisen only wants peace or so they say. A character... well lets just say the "Main Character" lives inside the walls of Eisen and inside will show you how horrible it really is.

Theres actually a moral to this story but.. I'll let you figure that part out yourself.
there should be a notice but I didn't want to put one up till now. There will be A chapter posted on my blog, The Chapter will be posted every week or 2 week's, It depends on the chapter really and I am a busy person so sorry for any delays :-).

well, did you enjoy reading this? I doubt it.

Hello

2006-09-21T12:08:00.000-07:00

Hello there, the other blog was trashed since it was all messy and unorganized, couldnt really fix it.
This is a new blog and well There isnt really much to see as you can see while browsing around but there will be oh my computer as witness there will be stuff for you to see.
