There are times when I’m excited for a challenge, weekly
However, this week‘s is poetry
which is scary
Poetry is not my strongest ability
It could drive me crazy
All because I have horrible vocabulary

Monumental Protest
This week‘s Photo Challenge is about capturing a monument.
It was quite a task for me to answer this challenge as I have a few photos of memorable monuments to choose from. After much consideration, I decided to put up this photo of Euro monument.
Weekly Writing Challenge: Fifty
It feels like life begins there. In a middle-of-nowhere city.
It was her first time seeing snow; winter was October ’till May.
She was considered black – Conservatism? Racism?
For her, origin is such an ambiguous word.
She managed to create second, third, fourth family. She simply knows where she’s from.

Super hard challenge! I hope I did OK.
Weekly Photo Challenge: Street Life
I really like the idea of this week‘s Weekly Photo Challenge: brings a street to life.
Looking through my pictures, I found the most suitable street that has served thousands of lives for thousands of years. It is the Primorsky Boulevard in Odessa, Ukraine.
Weekly Writing Challenge: Writerly Reflections
I like to think that I owe Enid Blyton for everything I know about reading, writing and books.
It all started when I was about 7 and my parents bought me some of Blyton’s Bedtime Stories collections. I read the books over and over, I still remember some of the stories until now.
When I was about 9, my mother told me how she used to read Blyton’s writing too. She then introduced me to my first Blyton’s series: Famous Five. The series were like an ecstasy for me. I could not put it down until I was finished and when I was finished, I was always craving for more.
Weekly Photo Challenge: Reflections
When I saw this week‘s challenge, I was excited almost immediately. It is about reflection and I just happen to have plenty of pictures that portray reflections (this post even featured a photo of reflections). Here’s one of them.
This is my take on Birmigham Canal.
Weekly Writing Challege: Power of Names
This week‘s Writing Challenge is extremely personal. To share the power of someone’s name is, I think, a very intimate thing to do. In the case of my name, I really truly believe that it always has some power and one of its power is to be a great ice-breaker.
Weekly Photo Challenge: Perspective
Another week, another challenge. Again, I take this as a great way to showcase some photographs that I took sometime ago. This time, I have decided to show two photographs that I took in an island that is very close to my heart. I lived in this island during the first eleven years of my life and the city, which is featured in these two photographs, was very a important one throughout those years.
Weekly Writing Challenge: Threes
I recently found out about Weekly Writing Challenge and decided to accept this week’s challenge. It is about telling a story based on three photographs. I looked through the pictures that I took awhile ago and thought that this would be a great way to post them. Here are my three photographs.
All photographs were taken in Tanjung Puting National Park, Central Kalimantan, Indonesia. I went on a three-day boat trip to experience a little bit of rainforest and to see some orangutans. It was one of the biggest eye-opening trips I have ever been.
