I am a mystery, and you can see a glimpse of every part of me in here. If you would like to know me better, read about me in the biography or keep up with the blog posts. This blog is mostly to write about myself, my likes, response to blog prompts at different blogging challenges and groups and joting down my progress for "Give It 100!.

I really like what my good friend, Joey said to me a while back. This is one of my favourite quotations now. *Heart* Thanks Joey!

It is not a matter of hope, but more of determination. The true mark of success is not always what you achieve
but how hard you work for something. Make your goals as important as your breathing and you will get to where you are going or die in the trying. There is great reward in both, as life is lived to it fullest. The biggest waste of all, is an existence without challenge, what then is its purpose.





Writing is an acceptable form of schizophrenia.

~ Unknown.



Carry out a random act of kindness, with no expectation of reward, safe in knowledge that one day someone might do the same for you.

~ Princess Diana

The past few days have been difficult. I'm not in the best place right now, and despite trying to keep myself fit, I can't. I'm failing miserably. Not only am I not fine physically, but mentally too. I have been sick for the past five days with flu. To get better quickly, I decided ro stay away from all electronics and screens, take rest and drink warm liquids. My flu had gotten better but it's still not completely gone with some irritation in my chest and cough, which is the last stage of my flu. Hopefully, I'll be much better by Sunday. For the mental part, it could be because of the flu, but I'm exhausted and tired all the time, and sometimes, I have no idea what the heck I am doing or supposed to be doing.

I logged out of WDC and stayed away until today. I haven't been using my glasses either because when i put them on, my eyes and head hurt.

A surgeon came about a week ago who directed me to a new method of treating the bedsores. It is a relatively difficult, more time consuming and harsher method, but it's yielding. The rest of the bedsores are almost completely cured.

My brother's progress is slow, and I think all of us are depressed because in three days, on 12th February, it's going to be my brother's 28th birthday.

We know it's going to take time for my brother to get better completely, but it gets too depressing sometimes, and I especially find myself upset when my mom is upset. I skipped my studies this year and my parents are doing all they can putting least and only limited responsibilities on my younger sublings so that they can continue and complete their studies. But being immature and inexperienced in this type of situation, they've opted to escape rather than cope. It's not really their fault since everyone reacts to things differently, but they shpuld at least try to understand the situation better and get involved with us, instead of using mobile phones and internet as an escape from real life. Sure, I'm also inexperienced and just a year and half.older than them but the situation and conditions demand change in your life making our brother top priority.

I felt quite overwhelmed in the past five days due to which i changed my status to private and decided to take a short break from everything.

I just hope my flu gets better and that God gives us patience and good health and my brother continues to improve. I'm sorry I haven't been able to inform anyone other than a couple of people about my absence and I've also missed deadline of a contest I had committed to. I feel so bad, but I can't do anything about it.

Even writing this, my entire mind and thoughts feels scattered and full of negative things that i can't get rid of. Sorry.

It's Funny Friday!

Prompt for July 26, 2013

Write a letter of resignation. Quit your day job (at least on paper). Rebel against doing yet another load of laundry. Abandon your post as jack-of-all-trades. Just make sure your explanation is funny and overdone.


Dear Sr. Jon,

I must not apologise at all for my behaviour last night with you and the crew mates. Never in my entire life, well i am not dead of course, so. . . Never in my entire life uptil now (there you go . . . ) have I been doing such a nasty job!

I just wanted to help and now I got my reward, enough, pretty sweet reward that I really hated. And now it is time, I scold you and yell at you with all my complaints. You should be thankful I am not spitting while speaking like you do, throwing it on my face!!

You have never seen me angry and now see the Wrath of Me! You asked me to join the crew to help you in travelling and discovering the "Fantasy" land of yours. Of course we did but I was not put up to the job I joined for.

You made me go in the eel's body and get the crew man out of there! Ewh! I mean what kind of person is shrank and then pushed into an eel with all the sticky and I cannot even say it! I am going to throw up!

Oh no no, don't you think I am over with you! You put me in the whale's stomach! You forced me to get that stupid broken compass of yours from the whale's stomach, who the hell did you think you were back then? It's stomach was boiling with HCL (hydrochloric acide) and you would have not even given me a proper burial if I burnt there! You had five identical, same compasses of which one was thrown, I do not care if the mermaid who divorced you gifted it to you!!

You think I am an idiot? I am not, much to your surprise *Exclaim*. Then you made me clean your shoes everyday after eh dolphins chewed them and with my bare hands!!

You made me make your hair everyday almost fifty times! I mean, am I the only one alive on the ship? Was the rest of the crew DEAD!? And talk about your hair, ewy! Sticky and lices all in! I mean are you even a HUMAN??!?

I am so hurt that I cannot even cry! My tears just are stuck in my eyes! You will suffer and you know, mermaid is with me, she hates you too and left you because of it! This is it! I am QUITTING!

It's War Chest Tuesday!

Prompt for July 16, 2013

"Review" a old piece of yours from your port that you haven't looked at in a while. Has your writing style changed? What have you learned since you wrote that piece? (Be sure to link to it so we know which item you are talking about.)


These are the oldest pieces that I can remember,

Of course! It's been I guess one and a half year on WDC and the poems and stories I write now are way better than the old ones! I haven't looked for a while at the war poem neither got any recent reviews for it so that may be the reason of it being ignored.The writing style has definitely for sure without a doubt has changed and improved! There are so many things I learned since I wrote that poem like forms of poetry, rhythm, rhyme, flow and in stories, the structure, characters, plot and description and so much more!

Aside from this, I have a favour to ask anyone who reads this. Go to

Then like the post. Anyone who does it, please reply DONE and I will send 350 gps your way *Cool* This is for a contest so please help me out! *Smile*

Thank you!

Hi again! How are you?

I am delighted today. I just got some encouragement, really strong encouragement about my novel and I am making my mind to start posting chapters every week starting from the following week. Pray I do give it time as well as do reviews as well! *Wink*

My brother has the tv on and is just watching Home Alone 1 . . . Ah! Its so much fun *Laugh*

I am sorry nothing really interesting is going one nowadays thus nothing really new posted everyday but I am sure that during the school days, there will be a lot of new things everyday! *Cool*

Doesn't it really seems strange when you try to remember how you met a certain person on WDC? *Pthb*

Well it seems to me and I have 99.99% forgotten about how I met members on WDC who are now either friends, buddies and close friends. LOL *Laugh* *Laugh* *Laugh*

See you next time folks,
Till then WRITE ON!

Today was a really booooooooooooooooooooooooring day!

I didn't do anything special; just refreshing reviewing page trying to find new reviews to credit and nothing more.

I am not in mood to review and today wasn't really a good day as well.

See you tomorrow. Sorry, nothing really to put up. *Sad*

Love you all! *Heart*

I never wondered or even imagined that such small actions or words can be soo touchy and emotional *Heart*

Tonight, we all four siblings were sitting together on the sofa and were teasing and playing each other. I was sitting with my elder brother and we were playing something with the ballpen and suddenly my brother unexpectedly (and unintentionally [I know he would not do such thing] ) just rubbed the nib with my hand and that part was kinda. . . swallowed? I guess that is the word. When my brother saw it after a minute, he became really serious and after that he asked my younger brother to bring the medicine. I told him that it didn't hurt and it was not really hurting. But he put the cream on my bruise and then we all became serious (however my younger sister was playing on my brother's mobile)

That moment was so touchy for me and I wondered about it and still am. Is this what is called 'family love'?

*Heart* Good night.


Take care and have a great day!

Gosh! I couldn't sleep the whole night due to something and that something is (I swear!) unknown to me. You know when I slept? I slept in the morning at 6:30!! *Shock* And then I woke up 3 PM! LOL I have to get my routine set.

Okay, let me just see my emails. Oh! What! Only THREE emails? Gosh, I was expecting more.

Anyways, is there a 30 day or some contest like "30 Day Blogging" still going on?

So August has begun and I have some new tasks and activities ready to be done in the whole month (on WDC as well as my real life).

Today my shifts ends for one group and starts for another so I will be on the look for the two reviewing pages and crediting them.
Then I have to do three reviews for sure! Just hope I remember it.

I was just writing some ideas for the next newsletters and if you have one, you can share it with me as well *Wink*

Okay so tonight, I will put some strange facts for no reason *Pthb*


Coca-Cola was originally green.

111,111,111 x 111,111,111 = 12,345,678,987,654,321

First novel ever written on a typewriter: Tom Sawyer.

Men can read smaller print than women; women can hear better.

Intelligent people have more zinc and copper in their hair.

The world's youngest parents were 8 and 9 and lived in China in 1910.

Good evening everyone. How are you all?

Well, as you might have read the main topic name, I am not really happy. Today, I just turned on my computer and saw a folder and old memories of 2010 came *Cry*

There was a folder that contained recovered files that were either deleted permanently or had been encrypted or corrupted due to virus. And that folder also contained my first ever novella written in 2010!! *Sad*

In 2010, our computer was attacked by a stupid virus that deleted everything and my elder brother had to do the windows again. When he did the windows again, there was no sign of my novella!!!

Oh Gosh, how sad I was. It was 1000 kb+ and all I had written had gone!

I tried to convince my brother to do something and all he could do is that he downloaded a recovering software and tried to recover my novella and he did! But that novella was in computer language and was not in English. If anyone knows how to translate computer language to English, please help me! **begging**

Any way, let's not make me more sad. I just finished viewing the newsletter I finished yesterday and I am just going to send it to the whole group.

After that, I am gonna do reviews that I had donated as well as give an mb to someone. Oh I have the credit shift too!

And yes, while you are here, I would love if you donate a package (gps or package) in my "Invalid Item. Thanks *Blush*

Okay then, bye for now! Meet you tomorrow again. *Frown* *Cry*

I am working on my crediting shift as well for Let's Help Each Other grow and I am just updating my "Invalid Item and would love some more donations (gps or package, any appreciated).

Hmm . . . okay then. Nothing else to say right now. So thanks and bye for now! See you all tomorrow!
