sweet potatoes..and white coffee!


boiled sweet potatoes and white coffee.so these are what i'm having for sahur.well,actually i'm not really up for it(red flag alert!)..hihi!i'm going for sahur nevertheless.

i have lots of other things to cook,but right now my taste buds are craving for sweet potatoes.koreans would LOVE to have them with kimchi!



i guess it's been like centuries since i last dropped a piece of my mind here.it's not that i don't like writing..it's what we call a writer's block.and i frankly had that.a lot of times.i used to think that i should write for people to read,but somehow that didn't work out well for me.

so now i'm gonna write for ME.if you people can relate or just feel like stopping by my blog,i definitely won't mind.comment, but don't criticize.writing is a privacy.whatever you wanna do with it,it's your own bloody business.as long as it doesn't hurt or destroy other people.

i admit my previous entries did have some bitchy words, meant for bitchy people.so if you're not the one i mentioned or will mention in my later posts(if i'm gonna write about one), then please,oh please don't mind about it.okay?

now i'm back to level zero since it's my first entry after a hiatus, plus currently it's ramadan(the blessed and blissful month for Muslims)..so i'll start with a nice note.^_^

Demons!

it's only morning, yet i'm already heated up. some people just don't have even the slightest freaking idea as to how other people are doing. oblivious..or simply IGNORANT?have some conscience,people. it does you no harm to actually ask around, sympathize and empathize with the rest. i'm not angry, just annoyed. i can't blame you for being who you are, maybe you're born annoying. i mean..there are some people whom you can't help but feel like slapping their face the first time you met them.sounds kinda stupid, but look around..don't you agree?HOWEVER, my feeling annoyed has nothing to do with that immediate dislike or hatred.

i think you know what i'm babbling about.

anyway, speaking of demons, these creatures remind me of those people who would gladly suck your blood and feed on your self-destruction. they might not be the same kind as to what you have in mind, but well..just think about them in a similar way. they just love to see you break down to pieces.

i guess i'll just have to put a blind eye and a deaf ear to it.
