I really love their styles and outfits and even how they look good wearing it. If you're looking for a fashion inspiration, you might need to check them out. PS. I'm not very good at describing fashion blogs so please bear with me. ๐Ÿ’— Maddinka I'm always fond of her winter styles. She always gives a pop of color to every monochrome pieces, just like her beanie. I like how she matched her black jacket with faded blue jean in this photo.

The Song of the two Lovebirds

Image
I found this old post of mine, but it seems hidden from the latter posts I published years ago. I don't know if you have read this already. I had revised some few parts and wanted to share it again. I hope you don't mind.๐Ÿ˜Š Girl: Oh, this is the dream that I dream In pastel colors and beautiful flowers The perfect sparkling heals beneath a gown in cream The wedding of my life came to this hours But then, it wasn't the things it wasn't the decors and the bouquet  it was, in my crimson cheeks and heart beat fast I can see in my eyes the man I am waiting for Boy: Oh, the songs of the choir and the church bell dings   The isle of daisies and roses, and velvet carpet The gentle black suit hugging my happiness A moment to be realized that I wouldn't forget But then, it wasn't the things it wasn't the wedding gifts and the black car it was, in my tears and heart beat fast I can see in my eyes the woman I am p...

Tips on Overcoming Social Anxiety

Image
According to Google, social anxiety is the fear of interaction with other people that brings on self-conciousness , feelings of negatively judged and evaluated, as a result, leads to avoidance . I am guilty of this. I think being strong and confident of yourself are one of the ways to become a better person. But oftentimes, becoming such is hindered because of your anxieties.  I have difficulty in overcoming anxiety. It's not easy, seriously. Over the times, I had gathered these few tips that I got from my own experiences. The first thing I do to overcome it is I condition my mind . The mind is the one who controls of what you should feel, think, and do. I let myself be aware, every time I have anxiety attack or before I go out the house, that I have the tendency to become anxious today or I tell myself "you are being anxious again". This is actually very helpful to me as it helps me relax and stay calm during hard situations. Because being aware will make you open...

Freewill and Destiny

Image
After what happened, I somehow learned about two important things in life, Freewill and Destiny . Perhaps, I was at ease knowing that I learned something after the fall, after the months of "mourning" of losing a special moment in life as a college student. It gave me a bit of boost to stand up again. I can't find the appropriate words to describe this feeling of realization. But, I feel so loved and it was magnificently comforting. I'm here because of my choices , whether those choices were planned or not. On what just happened, I know it was because of my ignorance. Ignorance of the reality, that I was still (or might be even now) flying in fantasy and the goodness of world. Dwelling on the bright side of life not knowing the harsh reality that the world could give. I was somehow upset that I have to realize this in a painful way. Perhaps, God knows best.  I heard someone said, "What's the point of living when your destiny is already written?" ...

5 Reasons why I love Goblin!

Image
Another Korean drama to watch guys and it's  GOBLIN!  If you haven't heard of this yet, let me introduce it as briefly as possible. There is no spoilers here so don't worry. This is a fantasy inspired drama. If you have heard or watched Train to Busan , you'll recognize the actor on the bottom left. Yep! It's Gong Yoo , ladies! Goblin is about a general or a kingsguard (if you're watching Game of Thrones) that was blessed with strength and have successfully won so many wars. He was unbeatable in the battlefield and was very faithful to the royal family.  As time goes by, the young king felt jealous of the general's fame and ordered to let the general move away from the kingdom. But, the general remained faithful of his job for the royal family as it was the order of the late king. However, his decision made the young king angrier. So, the king ordered to kill him and his family including his sister, which was the queen. Because of this tragedy, the ...

What the heck just happened?!

Image
I had been gone for a long long time now since senior year started. I already posted about reaching my 4th year in college and you had known my fears back then, but, I was thankful that a lot of you cheered me up during that time. Afterwards, I posted a poem about my crush, then I left. I never posted a formal goodbye or notice last year. Please forgive me for not doing it. Last year, everything was tougher. In my whole life, I never expected such traumatizing events will just appear on my journey. Sadly, it started on a little, careless decision.๐Ÿ˜”After that, things just went upside down. It was so hard to catch up with my subjects, I got worried like almost single day...most of all, I lost my will power.  During those times, I was like a ghost floating in the air that tries to get through the day. My emotions just shut off although I was crying a lot of times. I was ignoring matters as if I'm not capable of thinking anymore. Because that time I don't w...

Dancing to the Rhythm

Image
And then it fades. . . silence swayed inside the room. . . I set my foot on solid ground waiting for that "part"   the music softly held a single note, medling to an outburst of adrenaline inside the whole room. I swiftly move away and dance with the allegro  It goes on and on, faster than the beat of my heart I skip, I pirouette, but the music is like a sound of tragedy It didn't stop for a second, it never slowed down I tremble and fell on my knees. . . tears ran down on my pale skin deep down I'm shattered
