breaking the argunn code
Wednesday, July 8th, 2009
It looks like I’m confused too with my own tags, kaya heto, I took time to lecture myself on how to catalogue my entries.
Tags are the little words we used so it would be easy to find similar topics or entries inside our blogs.
In my case, I got two considerations: first, to classify it according to literature and second, to sort my blogs based on initial impression it has on me.
Argunn’s Library of Congress
This is my own enumeration of resources for my blog, since I am writer in his own right. Lol.^_^
The following indicates my contribution to men’s pursuit of creativeness.
i say
one-liner
essay
novel treatment
poem
short story
photo
missive
Most of these are very self-explanatory, but I’ll explain the reverence of quote and liner tags.
I say tag will be placed on entries when I’m feeling very sage like, or if I feel very proverbial and start dreaming of a monument made of steel be cast after my image. Think Statue of Liberty.
I say could come from old entries where I find a portion of my work quotable, or it could be words I heard from friends or people, that is funny, witty or shocking.
One-liners are anything (except those define by quote) that could be fit in inside a single sentence to a whole paragraph.
Breaking the Argunn Code
When I say emotional attachment, I don’t mean ka-emohan, but rather the impression I left after I scribbled my own words. The following are the tags, that will help to deconstruct that impression.
fiction
dailies
first imagination then
fraction illustrated
greeting cards for no one
life grab
life unfolds
bubble gums
talk on corners
line grab
lyric grab
photo grab
Fiction is a fundamental tag. A very important label particularly if I’m writing a imaginary short stories & missives in a first person point of view. Especially now, people are very good in extrapolating, profiling, introspection (yes readers na ang bahala mag-introspect para sa author), speculation, madam auringation hehe, and blackmail with accurate results. = )
Dailies are simply journal entries, personal rants and raves, that don’t have to be explained in a grand manner like in an essay. It could run from anything that is awe inspiring to the absolutely boring. What is important, it just narrates EVERYDAY life.
First imagination then are ideas that play on my mind and somehow I’m aware could be acted upon. It includes but not limited to dreams, desires and aspiration put into words. What if’s, I wish, and maybes.
Fraction-illustrated is how I romanticize life’s aspects, every so often surreal or poetic, sometimes hunting. The tone it suggests could be very blatant to totally obscure.
Greeting-cards-for-no-one well uhmm solely about the L word. Eeeeh. Lol! This is where I will preserve the L word. This is actually a fraction-illustrated offspring but I decided to separate it from the family. L word is larger than life.
Life grab—these are stories I am trying to immortalized with words. Something I heard, read, witnessed or partly it involved me. Very subjective. Lucky if I could write it objectively, but then why not hehe.
Life unfolds are like life grab that tags about the experiences, the urgency and changes that life presented before my very eyes with pre-emptive judgment. Or it could be like walang kwenta na topic pero kinuwento in super drama special.
Bubble gums dwell on the crazy funny stuff I think amusing to share.
Unlike one liner or quote, talk on corners is like a complete or short transcript of a conversation I’ve had or heard.
The last three are about grabs: line, photo, and lyric.
Line grabs are quotes, phrases and proverbs from other people e.g. authors, philosophers, celebrities, etc that I quoted in verbatim or paraphrased.
Photo grabs are pictures taken from public domain.
Lyric grabs are lyrics I took from the public domain.
I think that would be all. But these are the major tags, maybe as I move beyond, who knows I might add more.
Cheers!
