The Future is A Scary Place. The future is always unknown. We will never know what lies ahead of us. We never know what tomorrow brings. Even if we have plans for the day, do they always go exactly the way we planned it? There are a lot of uncertainties that surrounds the word “future”. And with that reason, a lot of people hold themselves back. Things like dreams and goals seem so far away as if we will never get a grasp of them. And because we want to achieve those things,…
Who are your family? Your parents? Your siblings? Your aunts and uncles? Your grandparents? Your cousins? Yes, of course, technically, they ARE your family. But sometimes, whenever I’m alone in my room, I cannot help but wonder and come up with weird random thoughts about anything. And this time, I thought about this. Yes, these blood-related members of the family tree are indeed family. But then again, I thought, “Are they?” For years, I strongly believed that family is the…
Break Free I’m walking on thin ice Clouded by my thoughts Don’t know where the future lies Even the present is lost That’s when I fall In the deep dark abyss No on to cry or call Everything about me is amiss I don’t know me Who am I to me? I feel so weak For being weak Am I not enough? To show the world it’s tough To show the world it’s cruel To be like me, to live like me No matter what I do Thunder storms keep rushing Can’t rainbows appear too? Give colors to my breathing…
Regrets Began with a simple seed I watched you grow Little by little You manifested a glow A small sprout be seen Oh! The joy it brings Smiles and laughter A satisfied grin Laid back on my ground Complacency arrives Haven’t realized The sprout’s been left in the dark Not paying attention Why did I not? The pain of my child All alone she carried on her back No one to guide No one to call How irresponsible of me To ignore her bleeding outcry Too late now to even look back…
12 Rules of My Life **RULE 1: I DEFINE WHO I AM** I want to remind myself that I should not let other people decide for me. I will be who I want to be and I know myself more than anyone else. I should not let their words of hate affect me too. I know that I am not born to please anyone in this world. There will always be people who will think that I am lesser than them or will hate me for no good reason. I want this rule to be one of my guides and strengths in becoming more…
Selfishness is necessary. The word “selfishness” has a negative meaning attached in our minds but in this article, I just want to share a different perspective regarding this word. Why did I say that selfishness is necessary? In this world full of selfish people, it is hard to trust that you need selfishness in your life. In fact, it would be better if selfishness is eradicated for good, right? However, there are also people who take advantage of the selflessness of an…
Staring, Unmoving Look at you, standing still Stiff and frozen, so crystal clear Thousands od feet apart, yet I see fear Oh, come close, oh, come near If only I could hug you If only I could make you feel safe If only I could be with you If only there’s no such thing as fate Will I be able to run to you? Like there’s only me and you Will I be able to run to you? Pretend that none of this is true In this cruel world of ours Where you flow in your own time Even if I wait for…
Suffering is Fine. If you think that you can live in this world without suffering then wake up, my friend. That is truly impossible and idealistic. As much as we want to stop all the pain and suffering that we experience, we cannot fully remove it from our lives. There will always and always be pain in this world. And how is that fine? It is fine because that’s what makes us human. To be human is to know and accept that after every storm, there comes a rainbow; after every…
What is wrong with being late? If we’re talking about meetings, classes and events, well, of course, being late is a crime. However, what I want to share right now is about being late in other aspects. Nowadays, I just feel like a lot of youth are taking their paces way too quickly. They want to mature, grow, learn, graduate, get a job, be an expert or become successful in the quickest way possible. Due to this, a lot of people are suffering from stress that they can’t keep…
The back of my neck hurts. I don't know if it's because of my position when I was sleeping or something else. Anyways, it just gets in the way of my writing because I want to lay down in my bed so badly and getting into a position to right and rest is troublesome. :<<
Voice Let it out Scream some more Hear it every minute Wild tremor, loud clamor Who is it the shuts? Oppressors who remain unjust Why do a blatant act? Throne to power must remain intact “Educate yourself,” they say Only right to do so But when you speak someday Do they pay attention? No. But speak, my friend! Do not be afraid Let them see the end With your words coming to aid No matter if a whisper Someone’s bound to hear For better life to prosper Put your words and voices…
Have a nice day everyone! It's a gloomy afternoon here. Have a sip of your hot chocolate to keep yourselves warm. Stay safe!
Words That Remained Unsaid I am not someone that watches you from afar. I am not someone who gazes from a distance. I am not someone who cannot get near you. I am not someone you do not talk to. I am not someone distant to you. I am not someone that you consider a nobody. I am not someone who is not part of your life. Yet, I am no one. Your eyes that met mine sparked a different meaning that only I concluded. You smiled from my jokes. You laughed because of my silliness.…
Too Late I regret it. I regret my decisions. I regret everything I told you last time we had a date. I regret not taking it back when you were holding back your tears by our front gate. I regret not telling you to come back when you visited me in the hospital. I regret letting our chat end there. I regret overthinking thing too much. I regret not trying. I regret not asking you to stay. I regret holding my voice back. I regret not telling you I like you. And I’m sorry for…
Tiring day! I hope everyone who's feeling tired will get a good rest for today.
Then Came You I was never the prettiest. My teeth are crooked. My eyes are dull. My smile doesn’t melt you away. I do not have confidence in anything. And I stutter when I talk to people. I cannot even move freely in class. I only have one friend. However, I was satisfied. It’s not like I have to have a lot of friends to get by. It’s not like I was sad with a small company. It’s not like they’re bullying me or anything. They simply do not care about my existence. Then came…
Good morning! How is everyone's sleep? :))
Define Yourself A lot of us get swayed by the hateful and judgmental words coming from other people’s mouth. Even if we deny it, it affects our daily functions. It affects our thinking and it gets in the way of our relationships with others. It was as if we believe what they say about us. It was as if what they are telling about us is true. And that shouldn’t happen. You are the author of your own life story. You are the captain of your own boat. You are the one in control.…
Bystander I saw what I saw. A crime committed at a narrow alley behind a building that I attend to. I witnessed it as I was taking out the trash. The moment I saw it, I don’t know if I should let them know that I was there—of course, I shouldn’t, right? —or should I film them? —most probably. But what gain will get out from it? Nothing. Probably hate—for not minding my own business. Probably I will fear for the rest of my life—I don’t want that, too. So, in the end, what did…
The Door There are a lot of doors in our house. One is the main door. There is one for the kitchen, the bathroom, the storage room, the master bedroom, the guest rooms, the gaming room, the walk-in closet, the basement and many more. I would like to call this place a mansion instead of a house. Everything was here. I have entered every door here. All except for one. That one door that I could never grab a hold of the knob, I have never once stepped near it. It burns my eyes…
Good afternoon! How is everyone? :))
Void The stares of the hollow night Looking through the glasses of my sight Beyond it transcends The abyss that I see no end Up I go, down I went No right posture for this bed Eyes on the ceiling—no, Now then later gazing from the window Can’t seem to perceive The emotions that I’m feeling Watching, writing, reading My mind has cleaved Happiness, sadness, loneliness What is it really? Cannot decipher the mess Brought again in the land of weary Take me out, leave me alone…
I enjoy writing articles here. Please do give it lots of love!
How do you make amazing notes on OrgChem? :<<<
Immeasurable Love How do you measure a person’s love? Through material things? Through the countless times that they’ve said “I love you”? Through the years, months, days, minutes, seconds that you’ve been together? How? How exactly do you measure an abstract word that despite being immeasurable most people aggressively demand an answer? Even I do not know how. But when asked I often ask back, “Have you ever tried jumping through an abyss to measure how deep it is?”…
Tired. :((
Tiring day! I wasn't able to write anything. :<<
Inspiration come to me!
The One That Stares My room looked like trash so I have decided to clean it up one day. And it felt refreshing to throw away my old stuff and try to create a new atmosphere for my studies. And I thought I did the right thing. However, after a few days, I somehow felt uncomfortable sleeping. I always changed positions whenever I’m trying to get myself some sleep. I feel a gush of wind somewhere on my nape and with that, I decided that I will refuse to open my eyes to see what…
Fallen Fantasy Widened eyes Mirroring the light A reflection of one’s illusion A dream transformed as one’s own Passion! Passion! Overflowing through the frame The frame of one’s body The anatomy of one’s dream Molding itself to become someone To achieve something in mind Following the path you thought was right One that leads to the vision you had But reality slaps it out of your hand Steps on it until it’s all tattered in sand As the wind carried it away And the waves…
What Have I Been Up To? I haven't been able to write a lot of articles lately because, aside from the fact that I'm finding the motivation to do so, I am busy doing these. Please forgive my poor handwriting. I'm trying my best to improve it. I am having an advance study with the video lectures that my professor sent and I am also taking down notes while at it.
Downey I would like you all to meet Downey. This is a low quality photo but it still shows his cuteness, right? At this time, he just got his new haircut and he's been running around all day trying to play with people. He's just so cute! It's really funny whenever he keeps jumping and getting people's attention. Just look at his paws. P.S. As you can see he got his tongue out because he's breathing heavily there after running for I think about 20 minutes straight. Such a…
Hello, everyone! How are you today?
The Umbrella Dave is in love with Alice. Alice is in love with Dave. So, are they a couple? No. Almost everyone in school find it obvious that they like each other. However, the two of them refuse to even accept that they are in love with the other. How stupid is that? In addition, both of them are so sure that the other like them in some way and they are waiting for the other to confess to them first. And as a bystander, I find both of them tiring. I’m like—just get…
Something About Kites I will not write a lengthy article. I just want to state what I want to state at the moment. I’m sure all of you are aware of what a kite is? It is an object that Is usually used for fun. You make it fly in the sky using strings and the nature of the wind. It’s fun to play with it especially on wide and open fields. You can run all the day under the sun. And it makes you feel alive. And what is the relevance of the kite in this article? Well, I just…
Classes are about to start tomorrow. I'm enjoying my last day of rest. :(((
Move On I was the one The one who did The one who ran Took the step that I forbid Foolish is what this is After months of lingering Wanting you back is better than this Wanting you back is better than crying But now, just look at you Doing great without me Emotions in never-ending queue Did not mean this to be Watching from the sidelines Cheering your everyday success No matter how far apart, I’ll be fine I’ll be fine and move on from this mess
Wonderful day! I finished watching Kaguya-sama: Love is War Season 1 last night. Phew! I plan to watch its Season 2 while its still the first week of classes where every professors like "Let's get to know each other first". :>>>
Make Adjustments Too We know ourselves better than anyone. We know our strengths and our weakness. We shouldn’t really allow other people to control us or change us just because they say so. However, sometimes, it gets out of hand. The pride of wanting to stand up for yourself because apparently “You know better” is starting to be a little too much. We have to learn how to make our own adjustments for other people too. We should always keep in mind that the world doesn’t…
My Baby is Now A Mommy! Congratulations to my Tequila! She is now a mother of these two cute kittens. We were all panicky a while ago because none of us had any experience in animal labor or something like that. However, we managed to guide our baby smoothly as she delivered these two adorable angels! We tried to calm her down whenever she's crying(maybe because of pain) and it hurts as too to hear her call for our help. That is why we were always by her aide. Now look at…
Good morning to all of you!
What Goes On Inside Your Head? I often go into that stance where I stare at nothing. I feel like I’m not thinking anything but it turns out that I’ve already imagined a lot of things. The moment I realize that, I will break from that stance and start to recall the scenes. However, I could not remember a single thing. It’s weird but this happens a lot in class. I always say that I will focus this time and avoid distraction but the next thing I know we were already at the 10th…
Backspace Imagine a mountain of words Written in that little box Emotions are overflowing and sincere But all you left was a dot (.)
Stop Slacking Off! Why do you prolong your agony? Do what you can do now than save it for later. Trust me. You can pretty much allot more time to rest and relax if you will finish what needs to be done now. Instead of idling and putting it off for some other time, if you finish your tasks earlier than expected then you do not have to cram it when the deadline comes near. However, some people work better when they are faced with the ticking of the clock and ends up being a…
I hate arranging and organizing conflict schedules. And I also hate it that they do not follow the original schedule in the portal. What's the use of posting something that you will not follow? Ugh.
Good morning everyone! It's extra hot today!
Day 3! This baby is growing up so well! We decided to name it Gin! We still do not know if it's a girl or a boy but I'm wishing for a boy. Here's a busy mom feeding her child! But at the end of this article, I would like to inform you all that the other kitten died last morning. It was a sad day. We were all so shocked. We are wishing for both of them to survive but something unexpected like this happened. So right now, we are cheering for Gin to stay strong, too.
Captured By The Lens I was relaxing in my room when I noticed the sun setting from my window. Witness the beautiful red orange color that the sunset emits. It transcends from a broader horizon that makes us wonder until where will it extend. Beautiful, magnificent, and calming. The angle changed a bit which resulted to a darker shade. This one looks scary though. Nonetheless, it screams emotions that anyone can interpret based on their own perceptions.
Re-heat and Eat I re-heated this thin-crust pizzas for our 10-minute break time. Having 7 am classes sucks and drains more energy. Especially if it's stoichiometry with a professor that speaks faster than your modern-day rapper. Enjoy your day, everyone.
This is Lit! I want to suggest this webtoon titled "Solo Levelling". The story is so amazing and the artwork is spectacular! You guys can just search and read it online. I swear that you will not regret reading this one. Season just started this August and its already paving its way back to the top read webtoons especially during its weekly updates! Enjoy reading this!
Captured By The Lens (2) I was resting on our terrace chair when I got the feel to take a simple photo of the plant that I've been staring at for a while now. This photo is captured from my phone. We live a few kilometers away from the city and we have here tons of trees and plants. It feels so nice to have fresh air.
Day 5! It's Gin's Day 5! This photo is a little blur because he keeps on moving while I was capturing this moment.
Junior Grade Artwork Just sharing my drawings when I was in Junior High School. I haven't drawn like this for years. I wish I could bet my skills back! This first one is from Season 1 and 2 of Tokyo Ghoul. I can't believe I had the patience and passion to do this before. This one is from a chapter of the manga adaptation of Ao Haru Ride. I can still remember how beautiful this scene was. Oh! I can remember this one. I was not confident that I could draw a group like this but…
Good morning, everyone! I just finished cleaning my room. It took me 3 and a half hours so finish.
What is this? Try to guess what this photo is. I captured it early this morning. I used my phone to take a picture of this.
Breakfast Food This is chicken. Deliciously cooked and deep-fried in oil and you get a crunchy chicken for breakfast!
New Playmate! Downey's got a new playmate. This pup is a calm one which is the total opposite of Downey but I think they get along really well. Check this out! Downey got tired chasing this dear friend of his.
Had a Little Snack My sister cooked carbonara this afternoon and it was delicious. Just the type to get your stomach full and your tongue satisfied. There are still some left and I'm reserving them for later. I hope you all have a wonderful afternoon. And stay safe!
Day 8! Week 2! We have been constantly watching over Gin and how he's doing. He actually meow a lot right now especially when he wants to be fed. We keep onlooking for Tequila because apparently she's been hiding or sleeping elsewhere. We take turns in watching over them because most of us have review, work from home and online classes. Have a nice day!
Morning Routine Ever since I cleaned my room and tried to switch the locations of most of my furniture, I began to practice a new routine and habit. So I open my curtains like this after stretching out for a few minutes then I open my window which I also cleaned for like an hour or so because it was so dusty and all. And now I can let fresh air come inside like this. I do not have to suffer too much from the heat. It feels great and refreshing. I hope I can continue this…
