I find it formal and more professional when writing in English.
You loose nothing if you use English. In fact, it will help you develop your
speaking and writing skills. When applying for a job, your resume is not in Filipino or Visaya but in English.
Some people may laugh at you if you use English but you will have the last laugh.
Personally, I find it easier to write in English than to speak it. I used to write a lot of poems when I was still in the elementary. But it seems that I lost the drive to write so I stopped which I regret.
Writing in English is more precise and you can be sure that it is grammatically correct because you can edit it or change it. Writing can be fun as long as you know what you are writing. It is important to remember that you write to express not to impress. Sometimes writing in English can be tiresome. In the process of writing, you may not remember the correct term or you will run out of words to use. It happened top me a lot of times.
I think it will be fun to be writing again. It will be hard but there is no reason not to try.
There is one downside in writing. The reader may have a different interpretation of your emotions or feelings which may result to misunderstanding.

"There is one downside in writing. The reader may have a different interpretation of your emotions or feelings which may result to misunderstanding." This is not only true to writing but all forms of communication.
