I am a Best Seller.

Okay, so now that I have gotten that out of my chest...

I am no Best Seller. I only ever dream to be one. :)

I am not fooling anybody, if that is what you're thinking. In fact, I have accepted my current situation. That I am still only in my teens (merely a child in some eyes), and my career goals are not centered on being a writer. I am currently in university, majoring Bachelor of Science in Chemistry. I believe some would find it strange for a science junkie to love writing fiction; making up stories in her free time. But I believe in some ways, it's not too strange.

Creativity is needed in science and in writing. With the former, you have to bend your mind into thinking up wider possibilities, and that will allow you to discover new things or understand existing ideas. It's not that different with the latter. One should know that with writing, you will also have to bend your mind, delving deeper, helping you imagine a possibility of an entire new world, with entirely different people interacting with each other, and that will allow you to share a detailed description of that world and those people, in a beautiful harmony of words.

I do not crave writing so much as to lose myself. I am a dreamer. I dream a busy life where I enjoy my scientific endeavors, pursue a life with pen and paper, fill my days with music and singing, defend my cause, undetterred (as I plan to take up law after my pre-course), and dream up more dreams.

Some would say it's one, too many.

I agree.

I agree, and I will take them all a step at a time.

It will not be easy.

But difficult doesn't mean I won't win.
