Mabuhay! Welcome to my blog. I’m Joey a.k.a The Future Trappist ( but I don’t mean to spend my life in a cloister .)
I am a failed writer, poet, theater actor, lexicographer, polyglot, English grammarian, educator, doctor, psychologist, biologist, political scientist, fashion designer, economist, philosopher, lawyer, and what not…,
but…I am a perpetual student in the air and a certifiable bibliophile and bookworm– not to mention a hearing impaired who could be a butt of jokes among primitive people .
I always feel like sharing the books I have read with my friends until they find me a-pain-in-the-ass and know-it-all. Alas, I cannot prey on anyone else, for they have different taste, life, thoughts, and feelings. So here I am , holing up in Timbuktu- a far-flung dimensional place beyond this vacuous tube , alone with a library of books I have read and with a stack of books with which I am keeping up at my completely please-don’t-disturb-me leisure.
Here I can smash the ideas and facts I have gleaned to smithereens until they come into molecular groups of thoughts and feelings.
All the articles I am going to write here are just the products of my hunger for education, febrile imagination, and heuristic moments. So, bear with me. ^^
Thanks for visiting my blog!
I’ll be following your blog from now on. Can I mention your Goodreads name here? Haha! I’ve been wondering for a week now. Who is this Future Trappist? I can’t find his “abookboreintimbuktu” blog. But now I know it’s you. You changed your url. Looking forward to your posts. 🙂
