Honor Thyself
If there's a word that I can use to describe myself, it's chaotic. Self awareness is the key, you know. I bet if you ask my parents they would say the same thing. I don't understand my feelings most of the time because if I dwell on it, I'd definitely self-destruct. I don't like myself when I'm angry or sad, so I often go on vacation or read books somewhere to get destructed. Emotions are messy, I don't like it. I don't like messy things, alright? But I'm messy myself so quite the irony. You know, whenever I'm sad, or whatever emotion you call it, I feel like fooling around. I thought of going to clubs, dance like crazy and drink until I pass out. Have one-night stands, and do whatever to get myself distracted. That's why I get it when people do that, I have no right to be self-righteous. I'm usually good at brainwashing myself that everything is alright until I forget about it LOL. I mean, I can't say that I have self-control either, most times I can't even control myself and I'm not gonna, I want to experience life to the fullest: the good, the bad, and the ugly. Maybe the thing that's preventing me from completely self-destructing is I love myself too much LOL. Don't get me wrong, I'm not that special. I'm so ordinary and invisible. I like it, I like not having the spotlight. I can read spicy manhwa in public and nobody would notice, that's the power of invisibility. I don't really like being noticed except when it's necessary. And to be honest, I don't really like people. I mean, I like helping them but I don't like getting close. I don't like adjusting my schedule just to cater to them. I don't care if I'm liked or disliked. I've tried liking people, but they do things that pisses me off so I guess friendship is really not for me. These past few days, I've been assessing whether I really need friends, and I came to a conclusion that I don't. I'm okay with superficial relationships and being colleagues, they're tolerable. When I'm friends with someone, I tend to worry about them and I have to adjust my schedule and give up on my plans just for them, which is really disadvantageous. Now that I'm by myself, I'm happier. Maybe that's why I don't mind letting go, because it's easier to be alone. I can play games and read all day without worrying. I don't even care if people use me as scapegoat, and they recruit people to hate me. They're actually doing me a favor, I don't need anymore people like that in my life. You go listen to that crap while I'm here having the best days of my life.
In this chapter of my life, I'm trying to assess myself and get to know what I like and dislike. I'm trying to stray away from whatever social construct that's ingrained on me. It's a chance for rediscovery on my part. I guess when you love yourself, you embrace the person you're becoming. I was able to prevent myself from completely self-distructing because I want to honor myself. Even if I'm not beautiful, I'm trying to at least be presentable. I also like how I love, I like my perception on love. I love myself enough to not get wasted in a club and do one-night stands, I guess. Maybe it's because I'd really hate it if I give my first to someone I don't care about. I'm not a fan of purity culture, I think it's hypocrite. It's just the romantic in me. I want to experience all my firsts with the person I will love in this lifetime. I want to grow old together with that person, and do silly things together. It's the romantic in me, I don't even care if my soulmate is virgin or not. As long as he's tolerable I'm okay. And even if I'm not meant to grow old with someone, I still prolly won't give my first to anyone. I read somewhere that if you engage in that, you might get their energy and karma. I don't like that, okay? Goodness, what if they have bad karma? No thanks, I'm okay with my karma. But if it's someone I love, even if he has bad karma I'll prolly share it. Isn't that the point of love: being together through the good and the bad, and loving each other no matter what life throws at us? I just hope my soulmate, if I really have one, isn't collecting bad karma somewhere. Gosh, why am I being spiritual right now, I'm just really rumbling. Well, if we take away spiritually in the equation I'm still not gonna do it, because I don't see the point LOL.
That Kind of Love
When I think of love, I envision my grandparents. I grew up with a mindset that love should be everlasting and enduring. Love is a partnership, and you'll have to be together even in mundane things. I dreamed of that for myself, that kind of love. Unfortunately, for me, I'm not like my grandmother. She's kind, she's poised, and she makes delicious cookies. Most men like domestic women, don't they? On the contrary, I'm a mess, I have a wild heart, and I can be restless. I don't want to conform to the society's idea of a woman. It's not me being rebellious or anything, I just don't resonate with it if you know what I mean. Over the years, I'm slowly getting to know myself and slowly getting to know what I want. I want the kind of love that feels liberating. I want to be with someone who wouldn't mind if I'm a mess, even when I disclosed to him my zombie apocalypse survival ideas. I swear, it's well thought-out! I even made a map. When it's raining, sometimes I wonder how the characters felt when they were dancing in the movie. I want to dance like that with the person I'll be spending my life with, and I want us to play like children. I want love to be fun. I want to go on campings, make a bet on who's gonna set up the tent because honestly, there is no way I will do it willingly. I want us to talk about our ideas, make love, and drink hot chocolate in the morning. I want us to be the best of friends and lovers. I want to get lost with him in another country, miss the train, go on haunted places and so on. I want him to be the scaredy one, so that I can comfort him while watching horror movies, and at the same time, I want to scare the hell out of him during random days. I want to go on a cruise ship, pretend that we're Jack and Rose from the Titanic and do some crazy sh*t. I'm good at sketching portraits, you know haha. I don't want a pretender, I want someone who genuinely loves my company. I want to discover a lot of things together with the person I love, explore the unknown, and learn about life together. I want to grow with that person, but I never want us to lose our spark. On days when life gets hard, I want to be the one to stay by his side, support him, make him laugh, and endure with him. I want to stay with him during and after the storm. And when we're old, I want to us to still be laughing and having fun. I don't want the world to wear us out, we can be wise and old and still act playfully like children. I don't want to be bounded by rules when it comes to love, I want us to be who we truly are and make the most out of this short life. I want love to be magical.
May this love find me.
Another Day
You know, if I could talk to my younger self โ say, my high school self, I'd tell her not to worry. She might think she's breakable. She might think a simple problem could destroy her. But guess what, my dear self, the world is huge. If you only knew the things I saw and the places I've been to, you'd be ecstatic. We've been to Japan, twice. You wanted to go there, right? We've also been to Singapore, Malaysia, and recently, to Hong Kong. While I was climbing the Big Buddha in Lantau island, I saw it. Everything was so small, it's like, I'm on top of the world. Months ago, I was drowning in sadness, but it doesn't matter now. All that feelings cannot be compared to the beauty this world has shown me. It's going to be okay, the world is on our side. You might be clouded by mundane concerns right now, but later on you'll realize that life will always bring you something to cheer you up, and you gotta accept it with gratitude. Stop doubting yourself, and just go for it. You might think you're weak, so you'll ask God to give you strength and wisdom. Guess what, I've received what you've always prayed for. I guess after all that trials, I've become strong and wise. Kinda, haha. I don't regret praying for that, I'll keep doing it. I'll keep praying for strength, wisdom, and guidance even if it means more pain and suffering. You're stronger than you think, and we're going to make it. You're so different from me now, I used to be so scared of everything. I'm so scared of making irreversible decisions, but guess what, you can't move forward with that. You have to take risks, and move forward as fast and as often as you could. Right now, we're opening a new chapter. I've decided to leave behind everything that's insignificant for our goal. Can you still remember that promise? You wish for happiness, and I'm going to work so hard to give it to you. I have to apologize because I've been sidetracked, you know. I've been distracted by irrelevant things I forgot our promise. I'll make you happy from now on. You know how they say life is a rollercoaster? LOL, you better enjoy the ride while we're at it. I'm going to get everything I want. Well, except for love, of course. It's off-limits. You might ask "why", and you might think it's romantic when you force your way to somebody's heart like in Itazura na Kiss. Please, stop watching dramas like that, that isn't real life! When you fall in love, you'll want to see that person happy even if he's not beside you. You'll willingly give up and disappear from that person's life just so he can find his happiness. You never force things. You'll learn that in a few years, and painfully so haha. But its fine, you'll survive like you always do. Right now, your 28-year old self will strive hard to make it all happen, so brace yourself. And to my 40-something self in the future, I hope you'll have everything you ever wanted. Happiness, a selfless and true love, peace of mind, and people who genuinely cares about you. I will leave behind everything that's making me miserable, and we'll have to begin again. I'll take responsibility for this, so my future self, all you have to do is be happy. I'll work hard to rebuild everything again for you. We can do it, ganbatte!
It wasn't that long since I started reading Korean manhwa/webtoons besides Japanese manga, and recently I got into the historical-fantasy genre webtoons/manhwa where out of all of them, The Fantasie of a Stepmother (A Stepmother's Mรคrchen) is my No. 1 fav in the list. I just love the story and the characters and more so than that, I'm in love with the main male lead of the story, Norra Von Nurnberger.
(The greenest of the green flags and I'm a simp for him now!!!)
Norra Von Nurnberger
He's so fucking beautiful OMG!!! ๐ญ๐คง๐๐๐ฅฐ๐
AAAAAAKGGHHH the MUSKELS heโs perfect!
But what if Nora was the one who regressed instead?
Imagine Streife!Nora, in all of his tortured glory, going back in time to protect Shuri from evil. It'd be so violent but also so romantic like-
What would his first re-encounter with Shuri be like? He would probably be the one to seek her out, since they never officially met if Shuri hadn't gone shopping or organized Johannes' memorial party. Would he ever formally introduce himself? I'm kind of imagining a "lady and the tramp" situation, where Nora runs away from his family and starts a life on the streets. And he becomes the mysterious scamp that appears like the wind on Shuri's balcony window.
He'd appear at a moment's notice, somehow knowing exactly when and where Shuri needs his help. Effectively getting rid of obstacles before they even become a threat. Theo and the church would actually stand no chance.
Nora would keep remembering his promise to Shuri at her grave. Knowing that God gave him the chance he always prayed for, he would never let it go to waste.
YES NORA YES IโM A POOR THING HUG ME PLEASE!

This guy is so fucked up I love it ๐ฎโ๐จ I wouldn't date him in real life tho so freakin' scary.
Main character ending up with secondary love interests is always going to be one of the best tropes.
And I don't mean secondary like less valuable.
I mean when the creators keep pushing "the main couple" and their passionate and dramatic romance (which is bordering on insta-love). And it seems pretty obvious that they are going to be THE couple. Flaws and all.
And then swoops in another character.
A character who quietly inspires and supports the main character. Makes them feel important. Just small moments of warmth and support throughout the entire plot. Little moments that on their own don't seem like much, but together they paint a warm and glorious picture.
The satisfaction of reading the building intimacy, piecing it all together and the main character (and the audience) finally realising who was the one for them the entire time.
The wow, that makes so much sense.
God...where can I get a cute hubby like this?
