hahaha Actually it's both very sad and happy

Imagine, for the lack of a better example...  a trip in an exotic place where you met many interesting people (musicians of course :P) but you had to go home.

About VSTs, I actually know (knew ) nothing about it, not do I have adequate equipement for it, which is why i kept asking questions everywhere. Though learning how to use programs are never a huge problem for me.

I have tons of ideas but practicing and polishing is difficult and VSTs will definitely help some fill in some emptiness/limitations on a guitar of the more "exiting" songs.

Firstly hang around the forums and read some threads, especially the Lessons forum.
Secondly ask questions ... in a thread of your own, your likely to get the answers your looking for then.
You dont need equipment to use vsts, you simply need a computer .... which I take it you have or are you strictly an iPod user?

Haha of course I have a laptop and a PC. I've got some programs but I feel quite handicapped because I come up with phrases/tunes by playing stuff aimlessly on the guitar. Then again I've only been playing with the drum machine on FLStudio.

I'm really happy to have found this place I'll keep exploring the VSTs and I'll probably be comfortable with it after more practice.

It's pretty much the same for any songwriter.
You noodle around and then in a whisker you hear something you like, you play around with that part until it almost feels natural to play, or until you are not thinking about it, then in a flash you get another idea, and so on and so forth. Sometimes things come quick other times take longer. You have to practice at least 15 minutes per day.
If you practice the little parts everyday you will find ideas will come natural, it's also gives you a great feeling inspiring you to add more to make it complete.
Personally I'd concentrate on your main instrument to work out all the part of the song, then record it. It's after you have created the structure that anything else you add will become easier. Alternatively you could try building one part at a time, although that doesn't work for me.
I'm not sure how a synth or FL drums would sound in this piece?,  it sounds strictly organic to me, so maybe some vocals,  little percussion could be more fitting, or some natural sounds from your neighborhood in the background.
