Cellar Door: What makes me think I'm special?

What makes me think I'm special?

I am over thirty and still can crack up about it.
I am beyond bounderies within me
I am able to chew gum and yet I get words out right
I am powerful and I can prove it
I can be whoever I want to in my night and daydreams
I can meet whoever I want to as well
I am not sophisticated though
Sophistication kills any type of magic
I delete anger and do not hold grudges
I would pull the trigger but I am not so sure I'd hit the bull's eye
I am such a complicated earthling that not even I restrain me
I can spit or swallow as long as it won't poison me
I am aware of my potential of editing and putting together only the worthwhile of this life
I am an euphemism for dissection
I am barbaric in the bathroom
I'd gulp vodka as if it were water
I fold clothes like monkeys and humanize like any mammal could do
I copy creatively. I cry non-...
I am not a weirdo - "Believe me" - I just suffer from overcast delusions
I am pretty normal if you really get to know me inside out.

Mme. A. hat gesagt…: Sometimes it's just complicated to be who you are, who I am. I think the real thing is: what's really fucked up is to be born with a writer's mind and heart. Intensity makes me explode everyday. I can hold anything inside. There is always the need to feel, to be, to give, to take... to-so-many-things... All writers are vampires, we suck the marrow out of the bones of the world. And then we live, intoxicated. I'm intoxicated everyday.

The beauty outside (and inside) myself needs release. So, I write and dream and love and... and... and so many things that you wrote here.

Good job.; Sonntag, Oktober 14, 2007
Teacher Laila Chris hat gesagt…: That was one of the most warmhearted comment I've ever gotten with this blog.

It is fucked up to have this so-called writer's mind but, at the same time, it is an awfully rewarding thing to get.

We study people's souls, thoughts, reactions with no need of psychiatry courses. We predict their tomorrows by no needs of psychic powers. We are historians, though. Writers mold characters, bring them to life, build interwoven conflicts, with no need of everlasting solutions.

There is something in you I can tell ahead I LIKE IT VERY MUCH!; Sonntag, Oktober 14, 2007

Sup? I'm Laila Chris Burden. Welcome to Cellar Door. English isn't my mother tongue, but that's the language in which I best communicate. Besides a blogger, I am a teacher, a poet, a stationery junkie, a married woman, and have two cats. I teach languages, do pilates and therapy, and major in psychology. I speak Portuguese on the daily basis. Brazil is the country where I live and in here people speak this awesome latin language. I also speak German, Spanish, some French, Mandarin, and Japanese. I am a visual arts freak, although I'm very fond of music. I lived in Florida for a while though my trip was part of an exchange student program. I went to the US to achieve another college degree. I studied Liberal Arts in Saint Petersburg, Pinellas County (Tampa Bay area), USA. I had also taken another college degree course in Brazil before moving to Uncle Sam's land. I hold a bachelor's degree in Journalism. Another interesting fact of my life is that my present occupation is not actually based on writing or arts per se. I teach ESL- English as a Second Language. Never would I imagine becoming a teacher in this life. Well, maybe I should have since my both parents are ESL teachers. My husband manages our ESL school, PBF, and teaches English as well. We live along with a Siamese cat called Tibby and a black short-hair one called Pancho Villa. I am terrible driver but a wonderful chef. Hubby's name is Roberto and we are both from Sao Paulo. We have been non officially married for 14 years and we have been officially dating since September 1991. Btw, I'm in my mid thirties. Hubby and I have been going through gizillions of ups and downs in this life and yet we keep on moving. We work hard to pay utilities including the broad band Internet wireless connection which allows me blog on. We do struggle. We do love what we do. I love my writings, my husband, my kitties, my occupation, my blogs. I love being the kind of monkey I turned out being.
