Scorsagian

Liar, they said.
Deceiver, they said.
Untrue, they said
Two-faced, they said.

I was contemplating.
Am I?
Do I?
But I do not lie. I was merely creating alternatives from a hint of truth.
I do not deceive. I was merely subtly indicating of things that may or may not be.
I am not untrue. I was merely not letting out all the truth to deluded minds.
I am not a two-faced. I was merely relieving my contradicting self.

Will you scorn me for that?
Will you scorn me for lending a better reality to sooth frightened hearts?
Will you scorn me for not blatantly speak of what I am not certain?
Will you scorn me for holding the truth to minds who would only repel it?
Will you scorn me for embracing two contradicting poles, even if both are the true me?

If it is so, then perhaps I am true to all your sayings.
Or perhaps, it is you who are too blind to see.

Siapa Bilang 'Grepe -Grepe' Itu Nggak Baik?

Oke, jadi ini adalah posting selingan, cerita sehari hari penulis yang salah seorang temannya request untuk dituliskan. Karakter karakter dalam cerita ini sepenuhnya nyata. Jika ada kesamaan nama/tokoh/lokasi maupun yang lainnya... then it's all hitsuzen! Because universe is rarely so lazy.  ~~*~~ Malam hari sekitar sepekan yang lalu, aku, ibuku, dan dua adikku (Nurul & Ihsan), berkelana ke sebuah toko stationery  langganan kami di Perumnas III, relatif dekat dari rumahku di Cerewed. Kami mengendarai 2 motor. Di satu motor ada aku dan Nurul, sedang di motor lainnya ibuku dan Ihsan. Aku dan Nurul berangkat belakangan, karena ibuku dan Ihsan isi bensin lebih dulu. Singkat cerita, saat aku dan Nurul tiba di toko, sepasang anggota keluarga kami itu belum tiba. Alhasil, kami berdua keliling keliling sambil melihat lihat berbagai jualan toko tersebut lebih dahulu. Tak berapa lama, ibu datang menghampiri kami dengan senyum yang, kalau dipikir pikir sekarang, sedikit kaku. Di

The Lost Chapter of The Lightning Thief

Some of you may have read it, some of you may not. So I’m just going to post this. This is a scene that supposed to be a part of Rick Riordan’s The Lightning Thief but he said that it would be better if this scene was deleted and I can't understand why.  Personally I do think this scene is very interesting. Really, I don’t know why he’d deleted it. But enough for the talk. Enjoy! When everybody had returned to their seats and finished eating their meals, Chiron pounded his hoof again for our attention. Mr. D got up with a huge sigh. "Yes, I suppose I'd better say hello to all you brats. Well, hello. Our activities director Chiron says the next capture-the-flag is Friday. Cabin Five presently holds the laurels." A bunch of ugly cheering rose from the Ares table. "Personally," Mr. D continued, "I could care less, but congratulations. Also, I should tell you that we have a new camper today. Peter Johnson." Chiron murmured somet

Rick Riordan's The Kane Chronicles

Well, this post is about another masterpiece of Rick Riordan: The Kane Chronicles. I like the idea of Egyptian gods and goddesses. And the main characters are also really interesting (But no one can beat the swag of Percy Jackson, I assure you).  Two siblings, the Kanes. Sadie and Carter. I love both of them. Sadie, with her annoying acts is so real. Rick Riordan surely really understand what’s on us girls’ minds. And Carter… he has his own charms. Unfortunately, he already has Zia Rashid as his primary crush. Here are the official illustrations of the two siblings. Oh, and Zia too. CARTER KANE SADIE KANE ZIA RASHID The series has 3 books. The Red Pyramid, The Throne of Fire, and the newest (published on May 1 st ) is The Serpent’s Shadow. I read in a website, it was Rick Riordan’s website if I’m not mistaken ( www.rickriordan.com ) that he will continue the sequel of the serial. Just like Percy Jackson and The Olympians with The Heroes of Olympus.
