Poem Post: "Forbidden"

This is how my heart goes when I stay at home all day.
Free verse :3

Forbidden
MINXIE

Her feathers gleam vibrantly

under the honest sunlight;

her songs are loved,

her voice hypnotizing;

she spreads her graceful wings

and longs to fly

outside a possessive cage

with bars of thorns

that forbid her flight

and wishes her eternal imprisonment;

and more than a thousand times

she attempted to break free

ignoring each throbbing pain

and mind-wrecking suffering

as she incessantly pushed

against the bars

of sanity and greed.

Her bloody feathers drip

under the secretive moonlight;

behind her admirable facade

is a fragile sanity

and wild dreams

aching to escape.

Please credit me, by the way, if you wanna copy all or a part of the poem. Thanks. :3

Outfit of the Day: "One Fine Day"

Here I am again, with another outfit. -_-

There goes my sister's bathrobe! :D

Me, my messy room, and my crappy editing skills. ♥

 

If You're Goth and Bored..

I made this because.. I was bored too.

source

Go to the library and find good stuff. Write a dark poem about boredom. Invite a Goth friend to your place and paint each other's nails black as you listen to Goth music.  
Have tea with someone. Visit museums. Read a book in the cemetery. Make some popcorn, turn the lights off, and watch some dark flicks.
If you're the compassionate, benevolent kind, BUY A LOT OF ICE CREAM. Put a sign outside saying, "FREE ICE CREAM AT 3PM" and wear Goth clothes (plus black lipstick if you wish!) when you scoop the ice cream for people so you'll surprise everyone. Don't forget to smile all the time.
Read Gothic novels in bed. Watch Goth Lyfe and wait for Season 3 Episode 24. Dye your "non-black" clothes and bed sheets black.  Learn to play your fave Goth songs on an instrument.  Draw outfits. So you won't have to spend half an hour staring at your closet next time.

source

Practice putting on Goth makeup. When you're out wearing a really Goth outfit, give that kid near you a candy or a chocolate bar. Smile as you hand it over.  Own a pet bat. ^w^
Make cards. Shape them into coffins. Write a short, heart-warming message on each one. Give them to your friends -- Goth or not -- for no occasion.
Make milkshakes with a Goth friend. Don't forget to add a few drops of black food coloring. Plant a willow tree somewhere.  Paint your garden roses black. Make Goth quizzes. Invite a Goth friend and ask each other questions. The one who answers the most questions wins a treat. Here are some interesting quiz categories: Goth Subculture History, Which EA Poe Short Story, Fill in the missing Bauhaus lyrics, From what band is this song, History of Halloween, Which Goth Stereotype is This?

 

 Still bored? :3

Outfit of the Day: Perky Goth

I hope the pictures don't annoy you in any way.
Have fun looking at my sister's bath robe in the background. And yes, I'm on top a chair. Again.

Me, my messy room, and my crappy editing skills.

 

Outfit of the Day: Good Mourning

Good mourning! ^w^ This isn't what I exactly wore outside. I just felt like dressing up :D Have fun looking at the ugly background. :3 I'm on top of a chair!

 

Me, my messy room, and my crappy editing skills ♥

Have a batty day!

Weeks From Blogging: Excuses

Do not count your chickens before they hatch.

^Lesson learned.

I had a job.
HAD.

Look, I wasn't fired or anything, just merely put "on-hold" and will be emailed to come back to the company soon enough. I don't know when soon enough exactly is though. It could be months or years later.

Okay, okay, let's be frank, it's like I was "temporarily fired" (is there even such a thing?), but it isn't because I'm such a lousy employee or that I'm actually an undercover drug smuggler. It's because they hired dozens of college student programmers who need to get focused on for training. Since I'm the only newbie (been working there for only 2 months) who's responsible for calls --from clients and to banks -- they say they won't be needing me for a while and they can't train me because they'll be busy training the new freaks they hired.

So yeah, I didn't expect that.

Way back when I still had my job, I had a lot of exciting plans; I wrote them in lists and I already planned out what I should do to my first salary. But, get this: I was put on-hold long before my first supposed payday, so I was paid that very fateful moment of being "temporarily fired" thus the pay was.. well.. enough to buy one Kanekalon wig. But, no, I didn't buy a wig with it, hell no.

I planned to post my To-Do lists, wish lists, and all my plans here, but.. yeah I guess you now know why I won't. Sighs.

All of my plans, lists, and envisioned sprees dissolved into fine, sparkling, magic dust, and I realized they were just one of the many short-term dreams that wouldn't come true.. YET.

Aside from being "job-deprived", there was this small Goth meetup I organized and it was supposed to happen last week. Goth friends I have from different parts of the Philippines and one from outside the country told me they were comin' over to Cebu. You could just picture out the wide grin of giddiness I had when they said that. So I planned weeks before as the host. We'll have tea, discuss subcultural matters over, and plan out stuff. But I guess it wasn't meant to happen. All of them had valid reasons so it would be totally unreasonable for me to whine and cry like a baby for this.

So I was back to my old penniless self, but this is even a worse form since school's over and I won't be given any allowance, better yet, a single penny. Jobless as I am, there won't be any reason for me to go out the house. Besides, I don't have any money to use as fare.

Staying at home was like being confined in a mental institution. I stayed in bed all day, stared at the ceiling, thought about what I should do next to make things better.. but came up with nothing every time. All those silent weeks this blog went through was spent reading about the science of ghosts and having daily text-a-thons with Mr. Boyfriend -- the only guy who currently gives a shit about what's going on with my crappy life since nobody at home gives even a little fuck about me xD

But then I realized I've gone dormant as a blogger, and if I quit this blog, my life will get even more shittier that it is now.

So yeah. Hi, I'm back.

Again.

Blog Deactivation Alert :(((

Good night, good night! Parting is such sweet sorrow,
That I shall say good night till it be morrow.

Romeo, Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare

Hi bats. :(

It has been, indeed, a wondrous journey together with all of you, through the hectic and boredom, the enthusiasm and ennui, the darkness and the light. Thanks for reading my short-lived blog! It's very sad to think that this blog dies young, it hasn't even reached a year. But it's still relieving to know that it has been viewed 12600+ times and has acquired 39 undead soldiers in less than a year. Not much numbers, yes, but it makes the blogger happy! :'> However, tragic as this may sound, I shall be closing it down for serious reasons :'(((((((( Reasons that concern my future, my sanity, my dignity, and.. my reputation. Worse, I can't state what it is. I'm REALLY, REALLY SORRY. T______T :'<

Goodbye! :'((
