Blankside.

Catching a drift while we stare at the blankside of the moon,
Weeping slowly to the things i'm about to tell you,
Calling a rewind but the pause is forcing the move,
Silently waking, reversing these words to come through. 

If my heart could make up the thoughts that passes through,
If my heart could make up the words i'll paragraph too.
If the heart could speak to you louder than these lines,
I'll definitely leave the heart to beat just fine. 

Behind.

Have you ever tried to feel the numbness,
Apart from fixing the falling apart,
You stay in waiting and race the clock,
But you find that you're dreaming. 

Do you hope to be free from thoughts? 
Or do you laugh in silence. 
When nobody is looking you shut your eyes,
Crying. 

#WhatINotedOn February Eighteenth.

Live by this quote.

Life is about always making mistakes, sometimes you regret but sometimes you know that mistakes are necessary. And you are always going to make, more or less the same mistakes along the way. And it is what you do in between those mistakes are the most precious times and valuable memories and worthy experiences.

...no, the cat has no mistakes.

Just reasons to fall head-over-heels in love with Clash of Clan.

HAHA!

You must had thought this would be a sappy, mopey, cheesy one right?

Fret not, won't bore you with my love stories today but only on a more gripping kind of love, Clash of Clan.

#longlivebarbarianking #offtowarneedmesometroops

Strategy games never really were my thing on the computer or past consoles. Thought that the lengthy wait and sitting and planning and organizing and oh God, the choosing of warriors to the selection of wars. It seemed a bit too boyish for me. So, i retracted to my GTA, Tomb Raider, whatever-zombie-games that were more entertaining. Till I met Clash of Clan on the iOS. and that was that. A few-30 weeks later I'm killing it with my Town Hall Level 8 and Level 62-ing. To those who are playing and have gotten levels above me inclusive of your walls and troops all either purple or black by now, SHUT UP. I'm not competitive, really....

It's super cute. 
Seriously. Supercell's graphic are more than anything adorable. The barbarians and the giants look somewhat cuddly. The archer girls are fearsome tiny little warriors but at Level 4 and above, they're not fearless, fearsome and ferocious. Still. So. Adorable. Especially when they die, they poof and make dying sounds which we can almost sort of empathize with. I'll prove it to you in Clash of Clan's TV Trailer!




After Heal Fairies you'll get Dragons, Valkyrie, Hogriders, Minions, Pekka Knights & other awesome mystical warriors.
I'm an ancient-anything junkie. From ancient histories, war and cultures to geographical differences, I love the ancient documentation. 

It is smart.
Well, I feel smart playing it at the very least. I guess strategy games are supposed to be that, smart and a challenge to your IQ and your time managing skills. Why time management you say? Because being time-savvy is to choose your troops according to your strategy at that time wisely. Being time-savvy is also knowing how to train your troops and balance the production rate. Being time-savvy is also knowing what to upgrade first before you think leveling up your HQ was a great idea. Till you realize the multiplayer battles increases with Town Hall Levels as well. It is also knowing how to sacrifice your diamonds, golds and elixirs for the betterment of your future village. Putting your favorite troops at R&D always helps make future playing times, better. And it keeps less elixirs for others to steal. BEING TIME or COST SAVVY is also knowing whether you are strong enough to break your shield all the time and let others steal your loot. Nah-uh-uh. So, Yes. At least, I know those 12 year old boys in Clan conversations will learn some future planning and time management skills. 

They even have genius websites like Clash of Clan Builder, which guides you on best village strategies. Cheat! but WIN!






It's idiot-proof.
Of course, I just mentioned all the intricacies of the game but from the beginning what hooked me most was how visual, simple and easy to identify it was. Most iOS strategy games can be just confusing. Sometimes they're not even in English. This is the same on Android Platforms as well. Not sure how true this is but heard that Android had more popular non-English games like COC. For Strategy game junkies, be my guest and have an account for all that's hyped right now in the geekery world but for people like me who just love to test their IQ once a day by checking my cute yet fully armed village, Clash of Clan is the answer.

They're a bunch of a creative community too. Check out these formations I've encountered.



Supercell are friendly.
My boyfriend recently lost his phone and could not retrieve his village from anywhere since it wasn't synced. Though a bit delayed, they replied with in such an apologetic way and got everything back to him within a day. Fast and efficient. The support team even provided ample assistance, check ups and guided step-by-step all through just email. The only thing missing now is trying to get Free Gems from them. Tee Hee~

So, i think it's time to lay down and grab the iPod now.
CLASH OF CLAN FOREVER!

What is that in your mouth?

As it has been years,
You might not reappear,
Enclosed, vague and assaulted by the present,
Ashamed of victorious talks,
Which never made the walk,
Only exist as a burden for the present.

But burdens are a bidding,
An intangible emotion,
Hard to rid,
But burdens are no kidding,
An intangible emotion,
Hard to bid,
As it mocks and it dampens,
Aesthetics of the present.

What is that in your mouth?
Behind crooked teeth,
Answers that are unsheathe,
Crops the story short,
For the present and the burden the mind extorts.

Charitable.

It's that time of the year to collect some Pahala and chase good deeds! Ramadhan is back people!

I've always loved Ramadhan, the month of waiting for Raya. No, wait. The month filled with patience, virtue and selflessness is more like it. 

Which leads me to fill charitable. I have my vices and I know one which may be spending too much unnecessarily most of the time. Not a shopoholic, more of a spendaholic. So, what better ways to extend the nature of my habit into something that is more meaningful eventually is by being charitable. 

Of course, it is easy to donate clothes, sell preloved furnitures to others, give away expiring food before it's too late and pass RM10 to a lady who's conning the whole TTDI with tasteless RM8 burgers but being charitable does not end there. More than anything, it should start somewhere. It should come with effort and conscience. 

So I want to donate more than anything my capacity to those in need. Need to find who and what to help this season. 

Happy Sahur! 

Xx

“夏は短い" by bawxxx I’ve always had this inclination to anything...





夏は短い" by bawxxx




I’ve always had this inclination to anything Japanese since I was young. From finesse of culture and fun-quirky anything, in limelight or in shadows, they have the best of the best.

Well.. In my opinion, of course.

Hence the nickname Momochie that has latched on since high school. ;)
