DEFINE MY MADNESS{all this time}
Labels: Stop. Ponder. Reflect.The third day of my life:
Seriously, I looked VERY tanned. My face is olive-tinted and I don't like it.
The outing yesterday was alright, we ended off with a touching note contributed by everyone. However, it left me so exhausted that all of us hailed a cab home. So drained out, I sunk right into my bed straight after blogging. My sleep was undisturbed until my dad woke me up with his loud, angry voice. I guess, my two piles of books had irritated him which I know of no reason.
Okays, wadeva.
I portrayed him kicking the pile of books and was prepared to see my books shattered all around the floor. But I just pretended sleeping, I'm too afraid of waking up and witnessing the anger flashing in his eyes. It is just too scary to imagine. So, the silence reigns and my heart continued thrashing against my rib-cage. That was the only sound that dominated my mind all the while till I plucked up my courage to "officially" wake up.
The books were fine, to my relief.
I dashed down to have my breakfast, hoping to avoid the storm going on right upstairs. I thought everything was going to be fine until the pile of books no longer greeted me. A similar scene registered in my mind. Deja Vu, the piles of books were no longer there and were shattered all over the floor.
Oh god, my dad had just exploded. I have just witnessed the first sign of the hurricane that was approaching real soon.
Does men undergo some hormone changes, too? I wonder.
I shut my eyes again against the blinding light and the whole scene repeated itself, again and again in the back of my mind. I shifted my weight to my left foot and closed in to observe the details. Indeed, his anger had dominated him and the books that which is originally placed at the bottom had been damged with the corners bent, folded like some dog ears. I hastily swept the books which obstructed my doorway and closed the doors.
I don't feel like crying but I would like to be left alone. I did not want anyone to witness my face of horror. I need to think, is this a sign that the books demanded immediate attention or is my dad trying to imply that he could not tolerate my laziness anymore?
I don't know. I never thought that my books have the ability to invite trouble.
Too lazy and exhausted to pack the books again, I just lay on my bed wile tiredness consumed me and drifted me to sleep. An escape from reality, even for just a moment is good.
I skipped lunch and finally woke up when my dad disturbed me again, with his urgent knocks. It was six and it had been at least, 5hours, since the whole event happened.
Alright, now that I am no longer tired, I shall start packing my books, once and for all. I shall not let these books evoke some hatred or awkwardness between my dad and I.

Oh well, I hate to admit that I m getting darker and darker each day. But that is a fact, I just can't face the music.
This fair, flawless complexion of mine is not built just within a day. I m not naturally born with a good complexion. I was once, like most of you, facing similar problems of pimples and acne outbreaks. I mean, this is a part and parcel of growing up but I just can't help but moan and complain about this very insignificant problem of mine. Yes, I admit that some people are green with envy when they "examined" my face. Signs...but this continuous effort of maintain a flawless and fair complexion is really time-consuming and well, draining; both finanically and mentally sometimes.
Just imagine the daily routine of performing cleasing-puting moisturiser-sunblock-blusher everday. Applying whitening moisturiser from the top to bottom after bathing is a must for me too. And before I forget, the process of mask-ing on alternate days is also a must for maintaining this fair skin. Well, people thought it was all in the genes, but guess what? This is untrue(in this case)! Look at how much effort I have taken to acheive this complexion!
Sometimes, I just felt so unfair for being born with the typical yellow-based asian skin. No matter how much fruits I eat, no matter how much I exercise, the natural pink flush does not seem to radiate from my face. It remains so dull and yellowish. Argh... it's all in the genes. But I guess there is always a way out.Probably using blusher is another better option, I guess.lols.
But anyways, the moral of my story is not about how I maintain my skin but on how some people just talk and did nothing in the end. I guess my hard work have paid off in the way that I have acheived a fairer and a pimple-less complexion as compared to the past. In this case, hard work does pays off!
However, I don't know how many thousand people I have witnessed who set goals for themselves, saying "I want this...I want that....," But, eventually, it is all empty promises they have made. They ask for opinions, remedies and even "secret recipes" on achieving their goals but, in the end, they simply gave up halfway, most of them not even making an effort to start.
What is the hell wrong with them?
