Feeling Invincible

(^,^)

I can't sing and groove like Shakira.

I can never draw or paint a Mona Lisa.

I'm not as brilliant as Einstein.

I wish I could write like Mark Twain.

Sometimes I wonder what if I were a doctor, a pilot

A business tycoon or an astronaut?

But fate couldn't even turn me into an artist.

Once in a while it makes me into a small-time philanthropist.

Life didn't mold me into an icon.

Throw back Thursday, had a camera called Ikon.

Now realizing what I missed and all  that I never will be

Still, my life is comp

Writing Prompt ~ Forgetting Articles

My neighbour has lots of pets in his backyard. As far as I know, he has a bunny, a parrot, a dog, a cat, a hamster, a guinea pig and some couples of parakeets and cockatiels.

The dog and the cat are very troubled, they seem to be addicted to go after each other in a ceaseless fight. They are really problemati

The flow was blocked!

The river was flowing fast and smooth, but it was suddenly stopped, "No you are not flowing right, the way you flow is not acceptable and agreeable."

So as happens to the thoughts they come fast and smooth, then suddenly it is told that no the way you think is not acceptable, so it is blocked.  Since then my thoughts are POUNDING AND POUNDING on the blocaked and I am not finding easy to let them flow.  Lets see how long this situation persists.

I am leaving for my hometown and my parents. I had planned to stay here for almost one month and then go home with my parents for one or two weeks. But two days ago, I changed my plan, I suddenly realized that I made a mistake, which I thought that away from my parents was a symbol of grown-up.

Is it true that away from your parents means you are mature? I have to say it is kind of right in specific period of our life, especially when we never actually away from our parents. In this case, staying

My Wild Thoughts

Wind chimes have always fascinated me. Sometimes, I dream of lying in a hammock, under pink cherry trees in its full bloom, full of wind chimes. And it chimes sweetly with every passing breeze. Nothing, but the breeze against the pink flowers and sweet melodious voice of wind chimes drives me crazy. I hope to fulfill my dream one day.

For now, I have bought a pair of wind chimes. I have kept one in my kitchen and the other in my garden. During my morning hours when I brew coffee and relax myself

Little bit more: Let’s practice little bit more.

Things got little bit more complicated. So, I need a little bit more cooperation from all of you. If you care a little bit more.  Get a little bit more enjoyment.

A little bit more of your time

A little bit more of your love.

Not a problem, if you get a little bit more naughty if you want, just for the sake of learning English.

Please please.. just  a little bit more

This is a little bit more than a request, which involves: 

A little bit more effort.

Running, not just run

I kind of disliked running before. When I was at the high school, I kept running everyday just because of the only desire to keep health and enter to the university; and running is a convenient and easy way to excise. I never gave it too much other meaning so what I felt after the running was tired and out of breath. In the university, every time when I felt my body was not strong enough, and I thought of the running. However, after several times of running, I quit; then I would start it again w

We Malaysians are facing another sad tragedy. Our Malaysian flight is believed to be shot down by some party who is in conflict with each other and crashed in Ukraine. All 298 passengers and crews perished in the tragedy.
