The Other Side of the Room






Everything is there. Everything is set. All it needs is persistency and some conclusions.
So the questions would be,


Are you ready? Are you going to fight till your last hope dies ? Are you going to find ways to get to it even if your sight is clouded by uncertainty and dubiety?

or

Are you going to give up? Are you going to raise your white flag? Are you going to die without even trying? And are you going to let it slip through your finger?


We're almost there. We're half way there. But we have our own distractions and fear, doubts and all the what ifs. And this is the worst moment to kept silent, because being silent doesn't solve anything.

Butter and Bread





So I ended up reading a novel, flipping pages by pages, imagining myself as the main protagonist; who had to go through several events that left her life to be miserable. It took me days to finish this novel since this novel is as thick as a dictionary but you know what they say, you're never alone when you're reading a book.

And I too ended up cooking, experimenting with different ingredients, trying to devise my own version of meal, though I made a heck of a mess in the kitchen. I love cooking, it's like playing with a chemistry set. You mix ingredient A with ingredient B, drizzle them with a bit of ingredient C, sizzling on instrument D, and voila, my perfect lunch. 

Well, my ordinary and bland holiday is coming to an end and believe it or not, I'm actually excited to go back to my campus.

Let it Rain









The wondrous beauty of rain, the memories it makes, and the comforts it can create. Rainy days actually make me smile. No matter how miserable I would be, I would feel at ease when it rains because rainy days make me feel secure and and it feels like nothing can be held against me. To linger under the rain and feel it as it tickles every exposed senses is my antidote.

Even at moments when my whole world felt to shatter and obliterate or when I had to face unpalatable truths, or when I had to condone a few horrendous matters, I would imagine myself dancing under the rain. Then everything would fall back into pieces. 

A bit odd isn't it, rain? It is like the world shuts itself to give a chance for the nature to redeem itself or to take a minute off. Don't ya just love the rain?

Breaking Away






Keep calm and take a deep deep breath because it's holiday. To some people, it's only a week. You can't do much in a week. 

But for me, who haven't had any exact break even before this semester commenced, a one-week-holiday means a great deal. I've intended to create something for this holiday, perhaps a memory. Or pursuing something vague or by chance executing something foolish that could take my minds off awhile from this hectic plus chaotic life so when the new day begins, I'll be as fresh as a daisy. 

"Just for once, I would like to wake up in the morning and the only thing that would baffle my mind is what's there for breakfast."

Me My Mirror






What if the only reason we can't walk through mirrors is because our reflection blocks us ?

What if they're protecting us ?
What if they know that the other side is horrifying and painful and they are trying to keep us from crossing over ?

I must be on the wrong side then.

Or maybe you are the reflection.
