Writers Block

I was staring at a blank piece of paper whislt holding a silver pen with my right hand. The paper was blank and wordless. I mean duh! It was a blank piece paper right? Silly me. Anyway, I was supposedly to write a choral speaking script for me school. The offer came swift and asked if I were interested, I replied with a simple yes. Some may say that I acted hastily as I thought it would have been a simple task, but I was wrong; as the saying goes, 'to say is easier than to perform'. So I got to work the next day and for hours I sat on my study desk, hoping for an idea to cross my mind. But, nothing came to my mind at that point of time. I literally wasted hours stoning at that blank piece of paper. But was it really a waste of time? In my opinion, I do not think likewise as while I was performing nothing, I actually put my mind to the test. It was mentally challenging, and at times I'd get tired all of a sudden, and start yawning. In my perspective, the mind works like an engine. If you do not grease it up after a long time, it would not run effectively.

My mind was actually sort of like a grease-less engine, cause I haven't really used it very often in past few months as I was on holiday. A day or two later, at four o'clock in the early morning, and after seeing many choral speaking videos of the various teams in Malaysia on Youtube, an idea finally came. I decided to write about children. I thought it would make a splendid theme for my script as everyone and I mean everyone in this world is/was once, still or will be a child. My idea was actually to take the judges on a journey into cherishing their childhood. The script however turned out pretty well actually. My teachers whom I wrote the script for actually liked it loads. Thereto, having writers block wasn't such a bad thing in actual fact. But I sincerely hope that they execute it well as I've gone through loads of mental stress in writing the script. I still feel the effects of it till this very day though, cause it doesn't seem to be going away. I think it probably likes me? (smirk)
