Say hello. :)

Many thoughts flit through my head as I am writing this down.

Many years ago a friend of mine taught me what a Thesaurus was for.  "Sometimes you have THE word at the tip of your tongue, but you just can't get it out.  You know what you want to say, but the word is just not there.  THAT is what a thesaurus is for."  And so I went out to buy a thesaurus, because I loved to write, and sometimes when I write, I do find it hard to remember a particular word that I felt I would very much like to use. And my friend was right - that is what a thesaurus is for.

My first passion in life was writing.  I could read Enid Blyton before I went to kindergarten.  I wrote a full paragraph when my Year 1 English teacher told us to write 10 sentences.  I secretly loved essay homeworks and essay competitions because I could write all I want and whatever I want and however long I want it to be.

I did not choose to pursue writing, however, despite it being the one thing in life I was really passionate for.

I am not really running away to join the circus.  Nor am I giving up my current life to pursue my once-upon-a-time passion.  I am ending Muffinsoup, and I just wanted to tell you that it has been a wonderful experience altogether to be able to write even though I wasn't a writer, and to be heard, and to have people to actually share those mundane details of my life with.

I may, however, allow my alter ego to continue writing under a different name (and it shan't be MUFFINSOUP).

Good luck at finding my alter ego.  I must say that although she may be very hard to locate at times, but if you're lucky enough to meet her, she might just tell you a story or two.

Perhaps in the future when I am ready to write as my personal self once again, I will bring my Muffinsoup back to life.  But not for now, just not now.
