Am I the only one?

So, I have this really annoying habit in writing. The ending is always something I've planned before, and it's kinda bitter but not too sad...

And I always ended up re-writing the ending. EVERYTIME.

Like I try to make myself unhappy.

But I am satisfied.

But not happy.

Damn. Am I the only one who re-write something like 5 to 10 times because I don't get the vibe tingling in my belly?

So weird.

I am currently working on an AU Romance (highly possible to be) Novel

It's called 'Haven' and I am uhbsessed with the main character already.

This is actually a 'challenge' because I'm suck at writing romance, so I decided to write a story with very obvious complicated triangle love as the main focus.

It's just a very rough draft, almost no details at all, but I'm starting to see the base of the story.

If I manage to finish it, and people likes the draft, I'll start writing the stand-alone book.

Anyway, I'm very productive right now, I send one chapter each day. :P

Oh more good news coming thru

--Other than the fact I suprisingly alive for 19 years and more. Ah... Astrarium got its cover, yay! It's black and white and shiny and well, it has triangle on it.

Like I said, you will not be prepared.

Oh, and I spend my birthday, watching the marathon of Brooklyn Nine-Nine, and I am uhbsessed with Rosa's fashion. And shoes. Those. Shoes.

Listing all the TV series I'm currently watching, I wonder if I still have a life. But most importantly, none of them seem to have something in common. Well, what can I say, I'm a fan of diversity.

Speaking of diversity, have you seen Divergent movie? No offense, but it's kinda awful.

It's special birthday snippet about birthday

Title said it all. Since Astrarium is probably going to get released this year, here's a snippet of a birthday scene.

I know, I'm so cliche.

The sound of the phone at the living room woke me up. I lumbered to the living room and picked the phone.
“You’re awake?” Morgan’s voice was silvery.
“Yeah, I was hunting panda, lunatic” I yawned, pissed. “Damn you, Morgan. It’s 3 minutes before midnight.”
“Exactly.” he said.
“You’re not in front of my apartment, right?”
“Gosh, I’m only 17, don’t be ridiculous.”
I laughed, and I threw myself to the couch. “You don’t have to do it.”
“I actually want to do more than this.” He told me. “Since you’re my friend.”
“You’re my only friend.” It was the truth.
“I know.” he sounded pleased. “So, have you prepare any wish? We still have 2 minutes.”
“I don’t know.” I shrugged.“I can wish, but it’s different from wanting.”
“True that. So, what do you want?”
Oh, I had so many things in my mind. I wanted my Dad, I wanted my old life, and I definitely wanted CC to be healthy again. “I just want more exciting, less doomed life.”
“I can help you with that if you stop with your rebellious nonsense.” he said. We paused for a few second and I stared at the clock. “It’s midnight.” he said when the clock reached midnight.
“Yes.” I said. Then there was silence. “That just happen.” few seconds ago, I was 16, now, just like that, I turned 17.
“Hey.” he said, half-whispering. “Cheer up.”
“I am cheering up.” I said, in my mocking voice.
Morgan’s voice was too low, “You lie.” I was.
I snapped, “You suck.” You were right.
“I know.” He knew. “Happy birthday, Thaddea.”
“Thanks.” A year closer to my death.
I didn’t say.

I'm 19. Gross

So... Today's April 3rd, in my country, my birthday, which also my last year being teenager. Bummer.

But I'm also excited to see what will happen to me this year, I hope it's less doomed than before.

So, throw a virtual party with me. Woohoo!

Who watched Veronica Mars?! I know I did!

So... years passed since the finale of Veronica Mars...



Gawt, now looking back at the past, they're just so adorable. And young. Omaigod.

And then... they're back!


I wouldn't say the movie is brilliant, but it's really really awesome. A little bit confusing if you never see the series before but overall, I love it.


And anyway, awesome soundtrack. Been listening to it since like 2 days in a row.

Countdown to Astrarium!

Woohoo!!! It'll be out in few more months! Anyway, I found really amazing personafication arts of Zodiac but really talented Stephanie Law. And I think it's somehow represent the 'zodiac' on my book. :) Check these out!


Sagittarius. But in my book, Orion represents it. The fiery colours are amazing and suits her really well.


Aries. I'm personally really loving this one, since, duh, it's my Zodiac, and it's somehow very acurate to my Aries. There's so many things about him and I'm thrilled to see him on the next book.


Leo, the ruler of the Sun. Never really thought about the sunflower part thou, but it's still pretty.


Gemini. I think it's really fit the image of my Gemini. She's such a kind-hearted person with a slightly scary alternative persona.


Pisces. Hm... Not exactly my Pisces, thou. But it's really awesome.

I just found another bunny

What the hell.

I found a bunny on my old laptop and it's a fantasy.

Like usual, I created the characters based on something, this one was about tarot cards.

Darn, why didn't I finished that bunny? I read it and that is actually the best plot I ever came out with.

One of the character's name is Astra Orion, and... I just realized that I've been sort of addicted to those names since I was in high school. Finally have the chance to use them, for two different thing.

And there's a name Vega! She was a villain. I used that name too in MP! Well, she wasn't a villain in MP, but she's kind of mean.

I came out with some wicked names back then. I wonder why I am terrible at namin now.

Oh gawt this is precious

We all can relate

People who spend so much time on social media complaining about how people on real life don't want to talk to them, and they're all alone, and they're awkward, and the ended up killing theirshelves. But why don't we just take a brief moment and think about how jackass we could unintentionally become?

Social media is wicked. But if you use it too much, it's sick. It's not healthy. And it'll stay there until you ruin.

So, put your phone down and start talking to normal human being like a normal person. If you don't want people to treat you like a punching bag, stop acting like one.
