Dolce Vita ♥

Have you ever had the feeling that you're not good enough? Well, for me, most of the time when I'm confident about something (which is quite rarely), I end up looking at what other people have and...yes, dark clouds tower over me and shove me with the harsh truth - YOU'RE JUST NOT GOOD ENOUGH. For instance, yesterday I was writing up an essay for the Young Writers' Award competition held by Malaysian Works and I was totally confident for it. But when I had a look at what the winners (they are doing it on a rolling basis) wrote, my confident level became zero. Maybe even negative lol. Their essays were SO powerful and the messages they gave out were so deep. Seriously, what am I doing with my life? Like, even if some of their essays were short, but the messages they conveyed were so meaningful. Their essays flowed so smoothly to the point that it would make the readers think that they just randomly whipped up something in half an hour. By reading their essays, I coul...

It's absurd, and absolutely hilarious as well. I think instagram is the social p...

Note: Most of the pics appear grainy because I'd accidentally set the ISO to be too high without realizing it. T_T  Day 2 of Penang:  First stop:  Lum Fong Cafe    The uncle was super friendly!  Then we had a stroll around Georgetown to search for some street art.   First stop of the day: Camera Museum  The "special" entrance fee they offered was RM10 for student price. We rejected and they seemed desperate for customers because they asked us why. We said 3 of us had already visited before, so they offered to charge only 3 of us. Which also means half price. So why not? HAHA     Candid mou?   DAT NIKON DOU   Luckily this time the camera managed to focus on 3 people hahaha. And Kevin was just passing by btw. LOL.   Kevin at the back though.     Instagrammable wall. HAHAHA     Kevin decided to be a tree   ...
