Latent Luck

Have you ever spotted a dime just lying there on the floor and as you picked it up, a thought comes to your mind, "Today is my lucky day." Ever thought that you could be the other person that conveys that luck to the other person? 

A few nights ago i was at a bakery store with my friend and i insist of paying his bread with my lot, at first he refused but i wanted to do my daily act of kindness and the moment felt perfect to me, so i persistently told him that it's on me. 

When i was about to reach my wallet, i accidentally dropped one of my coins into the ground, a thought suddenly hopped into my mind and i just stood still and leave it lying on the ground.

As i walked out of the bakery, i feel content. There is a hope growing inside of me that, whoever the next person that sees that coin, i hope that person will pick it up and say, "Today is my lucky day."

To me, luck is like happiness, we can indeed be the one who gives luck to other people, just like happiness. I have this believe inside of me that, whatever power we believe most is the power that is contagious to others.

I hope the person comprehends my message at some point, i hope there is real power that that coin possess, even if it is latent, for now.

Until then, this is my daily dose of joy that i spread to those around me, i will definitely make more stories on how i turn something that is unadorned into something meaningful :)

Worthwhile The Wait

I have learned something valuable from the times where there were no stars in my darkest skies.

When a want becomes a desire, we are willing to do almost anything to have it and feel it with our own souls, they say to have something that we've never had before, we must do something we've never done before.

Sure, at first you make a plan on how to achieve that goal, but the actual process of doing it is a whole different scenario from the original one that you've planned where there are no bumps along the way.

A wise man once told me that the road to success isn't about riding a straight path, but it is a path that is filled with pit stops to learn what we must acquire, fall into holes every now and then, but as long as you steady yourself to get back on track, everything is ok, in fact, you are already halfway of being the successful person that you dreamed of :)

Lately there are some people in life that has been rubbing me off on my bad side and it does make me furious, especially when the person that matters most in your life is throwing you all of this negativity and all you ask for is an act of sympathy. But it's ok, if i really want this, i'll keep carrying on and get back on track regardless of the anchors that tries to hold me back.

Because something worth having will not come easy and something easy is not worth having :)

Never lose hope.

Always turn on the light in your mind no matter how dark things seem to be.

There is always hope for those who ask of it.

Rejoice

Have you ever had one of those days where all you wanna do all day is just lay in bed and ignore the things you most do? unfortunately, i was having those days when i had to sit in class and stay there for the next hours ahead.

It's not them, it's not me, it's the energy that rotates in a circular motion throughout our universe that sends us off to our breaking points, main thing is, people were just pissing me off that day and all i wanna do was hit their faces with a frying pan and watch them trembling in despair MUHAHAHA well i can't really do that 'cause sooner or later i'll pretty much forgive them and forget whatever happened before.

At around close to midnight, i was watching an episode of 2 Broke Girls and some youtube videos, and suddenly a lot of romantic genre movie trailers suddenly popped in front of my youtube home page, without hesitation, i pretty much watched a ton of it and i'm more of the adventurous-movie type junkie but tonight, i was craving for something that touched my emotional side. After watching a ton of those, i find myself laughing my butt off, tears of joy and i feel rejoiced :) it feels like a daily dose of motivation came out of the screen and i was recharging myself to be back on track

Point is, whenever you're having a bad day, don't just sit around and do nothing! the world if filled with hidden secrets and tombs of happiness if only we give in to ourselves and live in that state of moment,there is always a chance to turn that gloomy day into a wonderful day :)

My Top 5 Beauty/Fashion Youtuber

Hello there readers! FINALLY talk about time for me to write a post that isn't related to my teenage angst and deep thoughts, today i want to share to you all my top 5 beauty/fashion vloggers that i've been obsessed with ever since i was in senior year.

My love for vloggers started off when i was looking for room decorative inspiration ideas for my bedroom and i stumble upon the beauty community on youtube. For me, it's fun to watch these beauty guru's creativity cramped in a video or to even hear them talk about how their day was. So today i have listed 5 of my most absolute favourite vloggers of all, enjoy!

5. Arden Rose aka arose186

She's the type of girl that both men and women are attracted to, i mean, a gorgeous tall girl with strikingly gorgeous eyes who does well in make-up and fashion and not mention is obsessed with The Legend of Zelda, who would not be attracted to her? i just love how she is so natural and being herself in all of her videos and i do appreciate her fine editing skills and i also love love love her and Nicholas together! I also wish her all the best for her future as a youtuber and all the things she wishes to do! I can definitely see her getting bigger and bigger and what i learn most is that she is able to stay humble even with the amount of fame she's been receiving over the past years. 

4. Aspyn Ovard aka hautebrilliance

Whenever i see a Hautebrilliance video notification in my subscription box i cannot help but to feel a tingling sensation rose inside of me. She has the skills, the look, the body, the personality, i mean, every single thing in this girl is the definition of perfection. I love how she's very herself whenever the camera rolls and i have to give her two thumbs up for staying cool even though some people seems to critique her, even the littlest things! What i have assimilate from my time spent on watching her videos is that it's okay to be yourself even if people think you're annoying and keep doing what you love regardless what blocks you away from your dreams and ignore the haters. 

3. Katy Bellotte aka hellokaty

Every time i see her i see the part of me glowing on the inside because whenever she talks on her videos it's like i'm having a really nice chat with one of my good friends, it's like all of these words that floats in my head that i cannot fathom, she seems to understands it. What i think is most attractive a pretty girl could have is intelligence, and Katy has that, in fact, i think she has the whole package going on! i love her fashion sense, her make-up tutorials, hauls and etc. and i love her inspiring kinds of vids where i can learn a lot from her and i have shaped myself into a better person because of hearing her soothing voice and deep thoughts. The whole female population blesses the existence of Katy Bellotte!  

2. Jenn Im aka clothesencounters

This chic is definitely one in a billion, i stumble upon her channel whilst i was looking for room inspirations after i watched macbarbie07's room tour vid and i did noticed that her room/dorm room stood out from the rest. Her quirky and eclectic style truly makes her who she is and i have so much respect for someone that is knowledgeable and witty, which she has the whole package. It feels like you can talk almost about everything when it's a conversation with Jenn Im, her style, choices of music, lifestyle, perspective and etc. absolutely rocks. I can't help but wanting to be a person like her when later on when i reach adulthood. But overall, she's amazing! A must watch fashion prodigy in the making! 

1. Bethany Mota aka macbarbie07

The first ever Beth video that i watched was her room tour video that now has over 7 million videos on youtube. I firmly think she is responsible and the main reason for my addiction for beauty youtubers and having self confidence. I have so may respect for her because she dedicates a lot of time to really put a lot of thoughts into her videos and also her creativity is out of this world. The way that her bubbly and easy-breezy personality shines through the cameras is a no wonder that she has over 4 million subscribers and her love for her subscribers (#teammota), which i am very happy to acclaim myself as, is indescribable, i really do believe she's one of the most dedicated and hard-working youtuber out there, and on top of that, she loves her fans sincerely and i am so happy for the success of her new fashion line. Whenever i seem down or at lost for inspiration, when  watch her videos it seems like the weight has been lifted off of my shoulders and her positive energy is one of the many infinity reasons why i love her, which earns her a number 1 spot on my list. 

So there you have it, guys! I hope you guys enjoyed reading this post and finally i'm writing something that's relevant t my main focus of my blog! I hope you guys enjoyed this post and leave a comment on who is your favourite beauty/fashion blogger!

Chains

Ever since i was little, i've always been fascinated in the art of philosophy, just a few months ago, i stumbled upon The Philosophy Book from DK Publishing from the best-seller section, no wonder, i mean, all of these great ideas and complicated theories about mankind's tendencies are explained, well most of it.

I haven't exactly got the perfect moment for my hands to grasp into every page but there was this one quote that stood up from the rest on the front cover, quoted "Man is born free and everywhere he is in chains." clearly it is a metaphor, a metaphor that i've been dying to blab about to other people.

When we are born, our soul is ours to claim to live in this world & the world that exists after it and our body belongs to ourselves for the age of our youth. But why, when we reach at a certain point of our lives, we feel harmed in doing things we want?

I name them, The Invisible Chains, cannot be seen but can only be felt. A chain that is made up of the negativity that steams inside our mind and overtake on the way we see things.

We are chained by the rules that limits our freedom, we are chained by the mocks that people direct at us so we cannot do more of what we could, we are chained by our parents orders to do things that are unacceptable to them but what we desire most.

Everywhere we go and everything we do, our behaviours are based on what we think we should do for the sake of being accepted, we are like puppets, the puppet master (and just to clear thing up, i'm not referring this to God, it's just the forces that lies on our heads that seems to have a greater power than it truly has) pulls our strings and controls our every movement we make.

If only we; as puppets, can negotiate to our puppet masters, to be free at some point and to be pulled back when we need to redeem ourselves.

But how do we get out from this state that we're in? and what happens if there are no chains left in us all? would there be chaos? or would it bring us satisfaction or perhaps, happiness?

A part of me does want to be let loose and cut all of these strings so i can be free and empowered, but another part of me is fragile and afraid on what lies for my future if i do not have any limits, i might just go mad and do whatever i want, even if it involves hurting someone, mentally. 

I often feel like there's an anchor at the very end of these chains that drags me to where it stops and it prevents me from crossing the line, i do want to rebel from it, but will it include pain and tears along the way?

These contradicting wants really makes my head hurt. I over-think, too much for my own good. But it's been better now since i have this blog to surrender myself.
