They must always be answered by the quiet, the steady dignity, that simply refuses to give in.

Tired, But Still Kicking.

There are times that I just want to scream “I quit.”

But then I think of how bad it could be or how messed up things were, and I can shrug it off.

When complaining (whining really :P) about hard things are, I try reminding myself that there are people worse off than me - women sick in Africa, kids hungry in third world countries, teens giving up because of the hate they face everyday. And that, in truth, I’ve probably gone through far harder issues. 

At the moment, they may have me pissed, but someday, I’ll probably be shaking my head over the theatrics. Yes, they may seem insurmountable now, but my problems are really not that epic or dramatic in the bigger scheme of things. Work through it  & come out fighting til it’s alright to breathe easy.

As the quote says, this pain will be useful one day. I find that more often that not, it’s true. It’s like a the problems you’ve gotten over are a stockpile of resources.

uh-oh, my bad

The day’s almost over & I still can’t decide what my favorite photoshopped picture is. This photoshop challenge is killing me.

Makes me want to scream “Have mercy, people, suggest a pic!” So yeah… Until i absolutely love one, I guess i’ll be postponing Day 6 of the 10-Day Photoshop Challenge. Bad. Tsk tsk.

Serena & Carter

10-Day Photoshop Challenge - Day 04:

Whatever tickles your fancy…

It’s them - my favorite Gossip Girl couple of all time.

  • They been giving me kicks since season 1, when he “salvaged” her presentation at the debutante ball & intrigued us all with mentions of Santorini.
  • Yeah, he’s a guest star and yes, she’ll end up with Nate (NS happens to be a close!second on my GG ship list), but I can’t help but think these two are the most star-crossed of the lovers on the show. Nothing was ever easy for them. I like how flawed & tragic Carter/Serena is, yet golden & somehow vindicated.

10-Day Photoshop Challenge

Day 02. A picture of you & your friends: Because we’re all music lovers! A wide range of genres & different favorites, but definitely music heads. :) Besides music, what do we have? History! Great laughs. Insane moments. Mortifying bloopers. People to lean on. Shoulder to soak with tears. Good stories. Lots of love.

  • Top, from left: Dindin (littlemissdin2x), Flip, me & Jude.
  • Middle: Jadda, Gale, Crupy, Jude, Trish (xxtrixaxx), me & Jed.
  • Bottom: Albert, me, Jed & Trish.

10 day photoshop challenge

I’ll be trying this. Hopefully I’ll make it. My interest tends to fade quite easily.  Blame it on my underdeveloped attention span. lol.

Day#10 is gonna be a biatch, what with my lack of a laptop with Sony Vegas as of the moment.
