Five Elements Of a Story


  • A character is a person, or sometimes even an animal, who takes part in the action of a short story or other literary work (CHARACTER)
  • The setting of a short story is the time and place in which it happens. Authors often use descriptions of landscape, scenery, buildings, seasons or weather to provide a strong sense of setting.(SETTING)
  • A plot is a series of events and character actions that relate to the central conflict.(PLOT)
  •  The conflict is a struggle between two people or things in a short story. The main character is usually on one side of the central conflict.(CONFLICT)  
  • The theme is the central idea or belief in a short story.(THEME)
On the other side, the main character may struggle against another important character, against the forces of nature, against society, or even against something inside him or her (feelings, emotions, illness).

Memoirs


Memoirs
Haiku

Dearest memory,
Let past be not my worry
So I’ll be happy




FULLFILL LIFE!




In the midst of this dark night
I can see how my life became so bright
From being a lonely and weak girl
I turned to be a woman of my own world

The wind of life sometimes blows me so easily,
Darkness have disabled me to see,
Noisy problems discourage me to hear...
Until downfall moments have taught me to always fear...

I sometimes came up to the times that I want to give up...
And all I thought was to stop,
But as I look and gaze to all the things that I’ve been through,
I clearly realize what God wants me to.


From a weak girl, turned to be a strong woman,
Now, I’m not afraid to do the best that I can...
Certain trials have strengthened my personality,
And my incapability was turned to ability.


I never thought I would achieve so many things,
But I know that I won’t fail to prepare for what life will bring...
Though sometimes situations gets too hard to cling
And all I can say, “Hey, that’s life!”, so keep on fighting!

what is TRUST?

TRUST as what they say are like papers, once its crumpled or turned into pieces, it will never get back to what it is..

trust for me is the most essential in the relationships of human beings... it is where LOVE pulls its strengths and it is in trust that every MINDS base its thoughts.. the cause of having a broken trusts may be worst as the end  of the world because a person hurt with betrayals could stop loving and be bitter for the rest of her life..

so, i strongly believe that its better to be slap in face than to be betrayed by someone you have trusted.
what is more painful is that you still want to LOVE but you cannot TRUST anymore. this two has to come with each other, if not...

else will be NOTHING!
