Dreams and Secrets // #2

"Do more of what makes you happy" -un

Dreams.
Del is definitely not an idle dreamer. She has always been that little girl who imagines herself flying to the moon with her non-adventurous family. She is always captain and her family members would listen and reluctantly follow her instructions. Yes, including the stubborn Ren and Zinnia. -so she thought.

Her biggest dream is to change the way people think of themselves. In this huge and ghastly world, everyone tends to judge every part of their own mind and body. They have absolutely no mercy on their mental and physical health and condition. Judgement, fear and hate had taken over them. Petrified is an understatement. Del hates the negative society more than anything. She mutters to herself, why is negativity celebrated as if it's a good thing? Why isn't anyone getting what i'm feeling? Can't they see what is happening to the world? Where is the love? 

As a teenager, there is no escaping from insecurities and jealousy. No one could deny that but how can one be so cruel to themselves? That is one thing Del could not understand. She wants to help other people go through their hardships but she is just too........scared. Particularly, she wants to help Joanna, her neighbour. Although she has never spoken to Joanna, Del follows her on twitter. She knows what Joanna is going through is not pretty at all.

Secrets.
Del is nowhere near good at expressing her feelings and thoughts to anyone. She never knows what to say to console her upset friends. Nodding, 'mhmmm' , 'i understand' , 'i'm sorry to hear that' are the only response from her. Eventhough she writes on her blog every now and then, she doesn't seem to know how to reassure or give advices to them.

7 years of friendship with an advocate like Del does not mean you know her all too well. You can sit beside her in class for 2 years and not know what she is genuinely passionate about. You can try digging secrets from her but not about herself. In Calla's case, she has been friends with Del ever since they were toddlers. Del still hasn't told Calla that she has a blog. (I know, right??)

Other than her blog, Del has a huge secret. Delphinium Rose is secretly a potion maker. She does not make potions for a living, but for emergencies. I am aware and yes, it is utterly ridiculous for one to create potions in their sleep; but that is just how it is. Everytime she dreams of mixing potions, the mixes will appear in her cupboard the next morning. Weird, i know. Del was also confused at first until one night, Master Sam George explained everything to Del in her dream. It does not make any sense at all but it is not a problem to Del. She enjoys mixing chemicals and organic plants in her sleep. Besides, it gives ideas and helps Del create amazing contents for her blog.

A Day In My Life // #1

"Find yourself, be kind, read books & stay positive" -DR♡

"Careful Del, you don't want to waste a single drop of it," whispered Calla, as Del poured the remaining rosewater onto the chameleon skin. 
"I hope our plan works. Give me the cloak," "Quick, they are coming!" Cried Calla. Both Del and Calla rubbed the cloak on their skin, praying that the giants could not see them.

[8.00 a.m.]
*tentententedententedededen*

"Aww man, why did you have to wake me up? I was about to see if the potion worked. At least wait after the giants leave," groaned Delphinium, not realising her phone is not human.

[8.09 a.m.]
Finally getting out of bed, Del went straight to the bathroom to brush her teeth, cleanse her face and moisturize her skin. This is the part where Del reminds herself that she does not own any makeup. The 17 year old girl has been dreaming of becoming a makeup artist but she does not even know how to blend foundation, lol.

[8.30 a.m.]
Slipping her feet into her pink fuzzy slippers, Del walked down the stairs to the kitchen. Eventhough every birthday she wishes for her breakfast to be ready, it never seems to come true. Every morning, Del makes breakfast for her brothers as well. "Cheese toast for them, egg toast for me. Perfect."

[10.00 a.m.]
This part of the morning is Delphinium's favourite. Something about doing house chores makes her feel incredible. I guess it's the satisfaction of getting things done, Haha. Whilst cleaning up after her brothers and washing their dirty clothes, Del came across an article on google.

"It is official. Household chores are a bona fide way to chill out." Reported stuff.co.nz

"I'm not crazy!!! I'm normal!!!" Exclaimed D.Rose.

[12.01 p.m.]
*twitter, instagram, snapchat, youtube, yummly, twitter, whatsapp, instagram, youtube, snapchat* *lunch, yaas*

[3.09 p.m.]
Like any other normal teenage girl, it's that time of day to browse online and window shop. (!!!) It is amusing for one to virtually window shop every single day but never add anything to her cart. For a person who was born with a silver spoon in her mouth, Del has never asked for anything from her parents. Every other ordinary human being would burn their parents' pockets if they were in Del's spot. #guilty

[5.30 p.m.]
Once again, dolphin girl makes her way to the kitchen and makes herself a cup of warm strawberry black tea. Only two teaspoons of sugar, please. No creamer. Delphinium is somehow really odd. She only drinks tea from a cup she bought with her own money at the age of ten. It is quite exquisite with the gold sparkly details around the rim of the cup.

[5.45 p.m.]
Time to get cozy under her blue Princess Aurora blanket and read a wonderful book. At the moment, Del is reading 'everything, everything' by Nicola Yoon. She is only on page 92 but it's safe to say that she is liking Olly and Maddy's friendship.

Del definitely wants to be a pretty fairytale ghost spy princess.

[7.59 p.m.]
The smell of grilled garlic chicken made Del's tummy rumble. It has been a few hours since she last had a proper meal. She could eat a horse.
"No electronics on the table, please." "We're sorry mum, just a second" giggled Zinnia and Ren, Del's younger brothers.

[9.02 p.m.]
As the stars welcome Del to the calming hours, Del reached for her trusty pilot mechanical pencil and wrote down her blogpost ideas in her floral patterned notebook. As usual, her brain raced with brilliant new ideas.

[10.43 p.m.]
It was time for D.Rose to get some shut-eye. Good night beautiful world, hope to see you in the day light.
