Talents are a gift from God so we should make use of what He gave to us and turn them into wonderful masterpieces. I'm no artist and I am just a complete novice but I love creating wonderful objects with my own hands.

Facebook Shoutouts - Poems by accident :p

Writing poems is my cup of tea so I always have a small notebook and a pen with me wherever I am. But there are times, when in a hurry, I forget to bring my "best friends" and when an idea pops up, I find myself cramming to jot it down. So, to avoid losing what I think is a kind of poem or even expression, I use my Facebook wall as my notebook. And here are some stuffs I've written over the years...

Most of my themes here are about a certain someone who likes to make fun of me, love, society, isolation, bullying, hope.... :p



"some women these days destroy themselves and change their whole identity just to harbor fame and admiration from others. Without their fake selves, they're just mere shadows among the crowd of busy people. Vanity is at its peak"

"Themis is the goddess of divine Justice. Her symbol is a woman holding a scale with her eyes blindfolded. Her visage implies that justice sides no one and it is just and fair. It sides the right and punishes the wrong. But the dark side of justice is...It is blind and it doesn't know the truth. The weight on its scale depends on the weight of lies and fortune spent. This is not "divine" justice...this is "human" justice - justice that can be bought by what is inside your pocket"

"Do u know why flowers and stars are both beautiful? It's because they can never see each other shine. At night, the stars shine and only night flowers can see their light and in the morning, the flowers bloom and only morning stars can see their resplendence. They are fated never to see each other but while their longing grows, they make both the sky and the earth beautiful. Their melancholy creates beauty but how I wish they could...see each other even for once..."

"When a star and the moon are together, the moon, who has its light from the sun, outshines the star. But using a telescope, you'll see that a mere dot in the sky is actually a galaxy of clustered stars and planets"

"Fake a smile and force a laugh...pretend that you are okay for no one can ever make you feel brighter. In the end, this desolation will eat all of what remains in your heart 'til the very last drop of hope and bliss. You want to scream but it's a futile attempt to do so because no one can ever hear your voiceless scream. In the end...whom am I going to rely on other than myself?"

"Life is ephemeral and we are nothing but fleeting beings in the ever-flowing sands of time. As our souls linger while being trapped in a vessel, we gradually unfold the book of our life and every page is stored deep in our memories. When our vessels are gone, we exist in the hearts of those who are still here and knowing that we are remembered, we can live on"

"I've been having déjàvu since last week...it makes me wonder about my repetitive life cycle. Was I alive in the "past" and now doing the same thing I did before? or this is just a mere feeling of someone caught in the center of monotony?"

"I won't follow the flow of society like a systematic human being. If success can be measured through people's achievement and by achieving what they also achieve, what can you call those who defy the norms and somehow manage to shine using their own light? I won't let this robotic system to monopolize and manipulate me"

"Waking up before sunrise with tears in my eyes is one of the saddest memories I have when I met you. Only in my dreams could I talk to you and that dream is one of the fondest memories I have. I am not the one fated to be with you so now I will look ahead and with firm belief, I know I'll meet the one fated to be with me ♥"

"Do I have to prove to you my worth? The answer is no. I wasn't born for you or for other people, I was born to complete my task and write my own story. I am what I am and the way I want to be. It's my right...it's my freedom"

"Do not treat a woman like a flower. Keep in mind that flower's beauty is ephemeral and when it withers it loses its radiance so is your affection. When you love a woman, treat her like she's the only woman in the entire universe for deep in her heart, that's what she longs for....everyone longs for...."

"I want to become a wonderful woman five years from now...Not for you but for myself because that is what i want to be. I am still a flowerless tree but when spring comes, i will shower the world with my petals, dance as the wind blows, journey along with the river that flows. And to protect you with all my might...forever...."

"He was all that I ever needed. He needed someone but that someone wasn't me...and would never be....even so, I do not resent him or hate because by meeting him, I came to love myself more. Pain is just only for a while. Learn to appreciate the lessons taught for we are still young and we need it as our strong foundation..."

"Woke up from another nightmare. Is there something more horrifying than seeing your other self standing right in front of you and looking straight at your eyes and tell you "I hate everything about you - you and your whole existence" and out of the blue, a little girl throws stone at you and you run after her only to realize that she looks exactly like you when you were a child?!"

"Indeed, revenge is sweet. A wounded tiger is more dangerous than any other beasts. If he survives from a sudden attack of bunch of animals, he suffers the pain while licking his wounds and nursing himself back but he doesn't forget the score that he must settle. And once fully recovered, he pounces his enemy one by one until they are all obliterated. That's one thing I admire about tigers!"

"One best way to know who is true and who is fake is to pretend that you know nothing. Let them tell you facts and lies and when they disguise their insults with smiles and flowery lies, smile back but look at their eyes and see right through them. By nature, some predators pretend to be asleep to lure their prey; others make a lovely sound to lure them out. Because if they use force, their target might run off and they have to exhaust themselves just to capture their prey which is, sometimes, a failed attempt"

"I don't want to live a life of illusion so I do things I love to do the most despite being labeled "weird", "childish" or sometimes, people's words get worse but it doesn't really matter. At least, I don't have to worry how to meet other people's expectation; I don't have to restrain myself from doing things I love the most. I don't have to weave stories just to have them listen to me and even like me. I don't have to tag along just to show people that I'm "in""

"One of the reasons why childhood must never be forgotten...One day, when all of the strands of our hair turn silvery white, we will no longer look forward to what is yet to come...only the past will interest us"

"People showing off the extravagant life they are living - those expensive stuffs - branded bags - elegant and high-class restaurants they go to?....seriously...what can they possibly gain by doing so? Being envied? Admired? but what's the point of all that?! Does making others feel that you're BETTER than them make you feel happy? In the end, you're just living your life unconsciously craving for attention"

"You think you're the queen of the stage , reigning and devouring those foolish souls' insecurities but you're no good yourself. Is it fun to look on down on others just because you THINK they are nothing compare to what you have? A little advice, Missy... You don't own the world and it doesn't revolve around you and every pain you inflict on others, be it through words or through your making fun of them, you'll pay it DEARLY. And those you've hurt? They'll be so happy that they can't even stop laughing right in front of your crestfallen face"

"after seeing the suffering of others and their giving up in the end, I came to realize that my life is mine so I must never let outsiders take control of what I feel, of what can make me happy, of what is the best for me, of what is right or wrong because in the end, when nothing goes right anymore, can I blame them for manipulating my life? No. I can only blame myself for believing them!"

"why do I always make a fool out of myself when I obviously know that what I am about to do is either stupid or wrong? How can I ever explain what I am thinking to those who think that I am a big idiot? They won't get my point even if I explain it to them. But does it really matter? I know myself and my worth well enough so there's no need for me to get affected by what others think of me"

"in the end, the people I trust who push me forward will be the ones to push me down the floor and laugh at my pathetic face if I were to be a disappointment. I won't accept people saying that I am wrong because I've seen those dreadful eyes staring back at me"

"Was the sunshine after the storm a symbol of hope or an insult to those who have suffered?"
