Connections.

I often find myself thinking too much,
or am writing an essay in my head.

Unfortunately, they are things that will never be asked to be written on in English classes. They are just fragments of my mind, and what I want to scream out to the world.
Those are the topics I would like to give a speech to the world on.
They are often controversial, and most people wouldn't consider 'important' per se.

They are unstoppable, however.
I cannot not think about them, or stop the pen inside my head which I use to write those essays with.
And they come into my head at such times where I cannot actually work on them, because of its spontaneity and the rate at which I 'write' them. English lectures tends to be my favorite place to come up with these arguments or opinions- and clearly, working on them during a lecture is unacceptable.

It's a funny thing; I come to these points I write inside my head in the most disconnected way possible for most- the way I make connections to the topic through simple things are possibly 'insane'. And my writing style changes every time. (it seems so in this blog as well.)

The other day, I wanted to write a speech called "In Defence of Bananas", which was a comical speech on why people needs to 'study' other people to fully appreciate them.
Bananas because of its denotations in modern society.

Yes, the time indeed was in English, and the topic of the lecture was 'Denotations' and 'Connotations'.
That's how I came up with the speech.
Strange, shouldn't you think?

At least, I do.




Perhaps one day I'll actually follow through with these fragmentary 'writings' in my head and propose to them to the public in some way.
Hopefully there wouldn't be a need to explain my motivations in coming up with the speech.
