What My Piercing Means

What My Piercing Means

It’s been six months since I pierced my left ear. A lot of things have changed then.

I remember when I first came home after I got this piercing, and my parents were so furious they insisted me to put it off. I was scary back then, felt like I did something terribly wrong. Not just my parents though, generally my family are againts it. Pushed back by the pressure I didn’t care. Gradually my parents, my family are getting ease with my piercing. Even my mother suggested me her own earrings to try on me (:

Growing up I used to believe that someone with piercing (especially men) was sick mentally or broken. They might aren't grateful enough for their own bodies and trying to manipulate their appearances. Someone with piercings or tattoos is usually associated with bad person or even dangerous. I can’t believe that the younger me were really close-minded like that. But not until last year my mind changed.

Today I see piercing or tattoos as one of the most artsy things human can possess upon their body. Piercing has different meanings from each person. Me personally think, piercing shows that the person is quite strong, outrageous, fearless. That even means they have overcome some of the hardest time in their lives.

My own piercing means a lot to me. It is a symbol and reminder for me that I am the only one who responsible of my way of life. Whenever I feel overwhelm by the constant fuzzy world, I can see my own reflection in mirror and spot my left ear. The bullet that has cut my ear means I can change the things that don’t align with my values. And nobody in this entire world could stop me but myself.

So, if somehow you meet someone with piercings or tattoos, please don’t be judgmental jerk. Go straight to them and ask them what do their tattoos or piercings mean. And be prepared for amazing stories behind them (:

Take Pictures

Prompt: Camera

Take Pictures

Both of them were standing at the outside terrace of the bungalow. What stretched in front of them was nothing but vast blue-magenta ocean under the cloudy sky.

“you just have to press this button.” Said the man

“okay” replied Lucy as she gestured her hand onto the camera.

Click!

Click!

“is that work?” she said while the man was looking strangely at her.

“yeah, but make sure to hold it firm, otherwise the picture will be blur.”

“okay.” Said  Lucy.  

Click!

Click!

“how is it?”

She put off the camera she was holding, out of the angle. Somehow the pictures were taken precisely beautiful under her finger. 

“Nice.” The man gave a broad smile as he took the camera. “Why do you do this?”

There was a silence moment between the two. The man put back the camera on her hand carefully.

“I love the sound of it, when you press the shutter.” Lucy said at last. She grabbed the camera and started to take another picture.

Click!

Click

“You’re always weird” He said breathlessly.

“I know right,” she took down the camera for a moment and looking aimlessly to the source of  the man’s voice had been. “I want to see this picture I took, when my sight is back again.”

BS

P.S:

Well, this idea came across my mind while sitting on my desk, trying to think of something. I spotted the camera in front of me and thought “what would happen if someone blind takes this?”

I know it’s not that crafty but at least for myself I'm really proud hehe.

Next time I’ll post more of this kind of style. I enjoy it.

Review Love Sick The Series [Season 1 & Season 2]

Sawadee Kráb, It’s been a while haven’t posted any article here.

And for this precious ‘aha moment’ beyond any procrastinations and excuses, I’d take the full advantage to write my personal opinion about the latest Drama Series I watched… Love Sick The Series.

[SPOILER ALERT] for those who haven’t watched yet.

Pertama kali liat judul series ini pas waktu iseng-iseng google rekomendasi Boy’s Love movie. Dan sampai lah ke Blognya Karin24 yang memang khusus bahas hal-hal yang berhubungan dengan Fujoshi/BL movie etcetera. Meskipun aku sendiri bukan tipe fanatik dengan drama series, like EVER. But in exception for BL Drama though.

Flash Fiction Timeline

Crazy Riding

“You’ve got to steady your steering!” barked the bigger boy as he took another turn. The moon was shining through the silvery clouds, which covering the gleaming town below.

“What am I supposed to do?” cried the smaller boy in his uncomfortable riding.

The clouds were getting thicker and solid, blocking the moon lights as they’re moving to South. They never been this far before, and with the world getting darker, they could easily hit by something dangerous or losing any direction.

“Turn your lights on!” The bigger boy bellowed but his voice was hardly audible as the line of gold light flashing into the dark night. But the smaller boy worked as though having some difficult math formulas to be solved in front of him; He didn’t see the button.

A moment later, the bigger boy came hurtling closer to him and said in a trembling voice –

“Right under your grip!” the wind was rushing on his face “you’re risking yourself not knowing how to operate a broomstick!”

Already Done

They sat intertwined, breeze of September’s morning crept in. Their eyes were looking to the line, the line where the clouds meet the ocean.

I sat down on sands, waiting for time to pass by. And yet, as I crossed the beach back to the path I only recognized so well for the last time, I saw once more to the place I knew nothing better but a memory dump. Place which the Romans would write in their poetry; two guys that were sitting on the shore, had vanished.

I drew my breath back into reality, and for the hundreds times this week I said wistfully to myself –

“We’re done..”

Flash Fiction pertama yang berhasil terjaring dalam otak dan dikeluarkan.. Agak absurd sih sebenarnya karena waktu itu aku buatnya cuma beberapa jam dan brainstorm langsung bikin dua cerita ini. Sebenarnya apa itu Flash Fiction dan metode pembuatannya masih blur di kepala ku, tapi dari beberapa hasil bacaan sih, kurang lebih begitulah Flash Fiction ditulis. 

Masih ingin buat lebih banyak lagi sih, cuma belum tau kapan mulai lagi. Rasanya harus ikut writing challenge, tapi masih banyak tugas kuliah. jeezz, Well, I'll leave it here and bye.

My Hello with Harry Potter

It begun when I forced myself to just read a little part of the book and right after that, I can’t stop but reading and thinking about all the wizarding-world.

A sweet friend of mine actually encouraged me to read this novel, though I had already insisted to read this hella super-rated book. But after I found that she also interested in Harry Potter, and was already begun reading the book I even became more convinced to start.
