Transformation: What does this really mean?

Transformation : a change or alteration, esp a radical one

Definition taken from TheFreeDictionary

Change is inevitable in our lives most of the times. However, transformation is under a rather extreme circumstance — similar to but not the same as change. It’s often more difficult and challenging going through transformations. Why? Some may experience the good while some of us (unfortunately) experience the bad. Well, throughout my (almost) two decades, I’ve experienced both good and bad transformations. The process through these experiences weren’t smooth at all. Ask someone who’s had gone through these experiences in their lives and they’ll tell you so.

The best is yet to come.

Keep your faith!

Believe in yourself! 

Stay positive always!

Yes, I’ve heard these so many bloody times. And I do believe that many of us are tired of hearing these at the end of your transformation. A new beginning comes right after an ending. I’ve always thought to myself, “How long must I be suffering? When can this end? Should I do this? I just feel like giving up sometimes! How can I stay positive in these circumstances?” At times, I want to cry so badly, but I kept telling myself to be strong.

Look how far you’ve come!

It’s an absolute great motivation when we remind ourselves of how proud of how far we’ve come. Yes, that’s the way to stay positive, you guys! Keep up the great work thus far! I’m clapping for you in spirit!

But this wasn’t often the case for EVERYONE. Well, that includes me as well. Things haven’t been going the way that I’d expected it to be — not the smooth, miraculous & positive ones. Everything around me have been so depressed, uncontrollable, all scream & shouts. Yes, so how long more do I have to withstand all of these? I’ve tried so hard to be good, positive & keep the faith in everything. Honestly, I’ve done my best in everything I do but I just don’t understand what has been / is happening.

So, I’d like to ask again…

How long more should I wait till a miracle happen to me?

Phantom of the Opera is a CLASSIC! It has been 3 years since I last visited Vegas, and I really do miss watching the once-in-a-lifetime performance at The Venetian. I can honestly say that it was the most spectacular event that I’ve ever been to. If you have a chance to visit the Sin city, be sure to stop by and check out the events at that time. It’s definitely worth your time & money if you’re one who loves la musical! 😉

Coffee, Tea or Me?

I’m officially quitting caffeine AKA coffee. But of course, it’s never easy letting go of something that I once loved… I still crave coffee most of the times!

Any suggestions that can help me to get through this coffee-tea transition period smoothly?

I’d love to hear about your experiences on cravings too! 🙂

Letting Go Isn’t Easy!

WordPress - Strangers

People come and go as we speak.

Strangers > Acquaintances > Friends > Best Friends > Lovers / BFF > Friends > Acquaintances > Strangers (AGAIN)

Letting go of someone whom I’ve met since 6 years ago isn’t easy but it has to be done. We’ve had a relatively weird friendship actually. He actually stalked me home when I was 14, and that scared the hell out of me. I had to resort to ignoring him and telling him the truth about how I felt at the same time. It was an awful, complicated and extremely frustrating thing for a 14 year-old. I had to be the bad guy in order for him to ‘give up’ pursuing me! One of the most outrageous thing a guy could do is to manipulate everyone around HER to help him to get HER. Omg, what is this?! Man up, bruh! If she doesn’t like / want you, SUCK IT UP! Which part of ‘I don’t want a relationship / I’m not interested in you’ do you not get?

Honestly, I’m not a bitchy person. However, this incident led me to have my guards up! This is one of the reasons why my ego has been so protective of me these days. Trust, vulnerability and mercy don’t seem to be in dictionary anymore. What has happened?! Well, this has happened…

It led to one of the many psychic traumas that I’ve had. This is horrible…

But oh well, I really don’t know if I should apologise to him for pissing him off or just lay off for a while.

P.S. If you happen to read this post, let me just say I’m sorry…let’s start again, shall we?

Honestly, I’m so proud of my mom! This is the FIRST time ever that she has been able to take a ‘decent’ picture!

‘Decent’ = Candid (In this case lol!)

Even now, I can still smell the earthy greens! I simply love the smell of nature ❤

Absolutely loving the feel of the waters wetting my feet! I just feel so connected to water it’s almost therapeutic to me!

Beautiful scene that I just got to capture ❤

It was an amazing short period at the beach. I’ve even walked barefoot on the grass, and SURPRISINGLY, it’s really very clean! No shattered glass, needles or any hazardous stuff. The green grass helped to ground myself as well. The smell of the sea water, grass, soil and the trees…I just can’t wait to go back for a walk on the beach!

Nature is just so beautiful…don’t you agree too? 🙂

Ah~ One of the many perks of being with children…

THEY SCARE THE SH*T OUTTA YOU! 

While we’re on a toilet break, a little girl came dragging me to the staff’s toilet and pointed into the dark & locked cubicle.

“Teacher, I saw ‘Jack’ inside!”

I looked around and saw that ‘Jack’ was behind her! Hello?! He’s right behind you, little one!

“There’s no one inside there ‘Raven’…he’s right behind you. See?”

“No! I saw him going in there and someone locked him in!”

Omg…this is creeping me out.

THANK GOODNESS for the principal stepping in!

“Ok, that’s enough children. Go back to your places! Toilet break is over!”

Every single kid went gleefully with the principal, leaving me scared, dumbfounded and extremely shaken. It left me thinking…

Is what she said true? Was there really someone in there??

Oh dear God, give me (more) strength please!
