The story behind DeadPoetz
August 10, 2007Yes, that is the address of this blog. It is also my username in most of my Internet accounts, aside from Multiply.
But why DeadPoetz?
It came a from the name of my crush, it came from "Dead Poet's Society", it came from my fancying myself a poet.
Poet is from the name of my crush. It's his nickname scrambled. It's pretty easy to guess who he is now, huh? I used to just call myself Poet. I sort of started writing poems a little while after. Though of course, that isn't really the reason why I started writing. And after a while, I don't know, I don't like him anymore, since there were times when we don't talk to each other anymore. So I added Dead to Poet and added a Z, since that was sort of the thing then, adding z, lol. So it became DeadPoetz.
Then there's "Dead Poet's Society", I never really watched the movie before, but the title was quite intriguing. In a "book" I "published" for my friend, Regine, I wrote "Published by Dead Poet's Society", because it was cute. And there it is.
It's funny, there is actually a rap duo named DeadPoetz. One of the reasons I don't have a MySpace, but if you happen to check DeadPoetz in MySpace, there is someone with that account, which is the members of DeadPoetz, the rap band. I think it was last year, I got an email, from DeadPoetz, the rap band, actually, it was quite interesting. He asked why I happen to use the same name as his band for my site, and I told him that I never heard of his band, actually, I came up with DeadPoetz for another reason. We were pretty cool about sharing the same name. And he even complimented on my works. I didn't really tell them the reason behind my DeadPoetz though, because it was well, kind of childish.
Oh, about my crush. I still have a crush on him. Pathetic, huh? And I still no longer talk to him.
Updates on Dreams
Have quite a few dreams some fragments here, some fragments there.
Yesterday I dreamt that I was walking to DLSU, which is in reality very far from my house, about an hour's commute away. When I got to DLSU, I saw my neighbor, Nikki, she asked me if it was faster to go to DLSU by walking than riding a car, and I said yes, because there is a short cut. And then I pointed out the shortcut to her, I pointed the road down EGI Taft tower, and just walk straight and you'd get to our house. Apparently it goes through a water park too. And then, we were discussing on how not many people go to water parks anymore, as we pass through it. Then, when we got home, we tried to ride a car to DLSU. In my dream, it was slower because of the traffic. And since the car's not moving at all, my driver and I got out of the car and bought some fishballs. Then, that's the end of my dream.
Weird, I know.
I had another dream some time ago, where I was in a meeting of Malate Literary Folio, one of my orgs, which I am not very active in. In my dream, Valu, my editor, wrote on the board the code names of the secret poetry buddies, she wrote Purple Little Girl too, but beneath it she wrote my name. But we were not supposed to let other people know our code names. (Not that I am part of that activity, because for some weird reason, Purple Little Girl does not have a poetry buddy). Then, she was telling the others about what a irresponsible member I am, then she was passing around a copy of my report card, and the rest of the members are looking at it. Some were saying how low my grades were (I think, or maybe I injected that, because my grades are really not much to be proud of), and others was saying how good my grades are, which made me sort of, satisfied with myself. Even though perhaps one of the reasons why I am inactive is because I sort of prioritize my studies more. And that's basically it.
I don't have anything against Valu in reality, but I am ashamed that I have been very inactvie in Malate Literary Folio.
I also dreamt about RushTv once. We have a contest/ shooting for RushTV, there were other schools who were also there. Though I don't remember the details. All I remember now is that it was fun.
I still have other dreams, but there are mostly fragments that I can no longer retrieve from the depths of my memories. (How melodramatic! 
))
