"You see things. And you understand. You're a wallflower." - Patrick "I don't think anyone noticed me." - Charlie  "Welcome to the Island of Misfit Toys." - Sam Okay. Above is quoted from The Perks of Being a Wallflower . I'm not going to review this film nor not going to talk about it here. Just, I watched it once last year then somehow when I browsed my hard disk today, out of hundred films I have in my storage, I picked this one up. Yeah. Like the main character of the film Charlie, I'm used to being alone all the time, loves to write more than speak. I am a wallflower . Well, I prefer to be one - regardless of how people view me. Regardless of how people say about me. And recently I learned a new word people use to describe me for being, 'doesn't pay much to people's words as long as you're happy with your life' – ‘ self-centered ’.

Heart of Glass Pt. 1 ― Tuition & Me Few days ago, my neighbor came to my house and asked if I could help her daughter with subjects of Add Math, Chem & Physics.

I've been there for like 13 months, almost 2 years. 2 years that filled with almost everything. Laughter and tears, happiness and sorrows. Tensions and pressures. Love and hatred.

You know, life and surroundings really keep on pushing and pulling that they blind you from seeing what’s right or wrong, for you. Not for them.
