The Hong Kong Jockey Club - where tradition and speed race round the bend
On Hong Kong's neon-soaked nights, a heart beats at a gallop: the Jockey Club, a colossal paradox since 1884 - both a temple of sport and a benefactor of the city. Here, wealth and ritual merge when sleek horses shoot across the turf like liquid gold.
The crowd goes wild, bets whisper of luck and loss, but there is more behind the frenzy: schools, hospitals, culture - financed by the race of the hooves. A high-stakes game in which even the city wins.
**Sun Moon Lake, Taiwan** 🌊🛥️🌞🌿
Today was just perfect. The **Sun Moon Lake** glistened in the gentle sunshine, the water was as smooth as glass and so clear that the surrounding mountains doubled in size. Despite the many tourists, there was a peaceful silence - as if everything was in harmony. You could simply lose yourself in the vastness of the landscape, feel the gentle breeze and let your mind wander.
A place that offers peace without asking for anything in return. 💙
The desert has no answer.
"It only asks"
**Berber wisdom**
I like to help. But sometimes I also want help.
I'm good at giving.
I listen, I'm there, I support, I carry.
It makes me happy when I can do someone good.
But deep inside me there is also a desire:
For someone to be there for me.
Not because I have fallen.
Not because I'm strong.
But simply because sometimes I don't know what to do.
I want to learn to accept help - without
without feeling bad about it.
Without having to give back straight away.
Without thinking about whether I'm asking too much.
I want to trust.
That I don't have to do anything to be kept.

Emotional Border Letter - Derya's promise to herself
You don't need to understand anymore.
It's not for you to weigh, measure, question the feelings I'm experiencing.
I opened up to you, I wanted you to hear my voice.
But every time you tried to pull me into your story.
By ignoring my story.
Now I am silent. But this is not a defeat.
This silence is not an escape.
It's a limit.
It's my right to protect myself.
It's my right to choose my inner peace.
This is my determination to stand on my own side from now on.
Keep everything that is rightfully yours.
I will no longer carry burdens that are not mine.
I let go of guilt, obligation, shame.
Because I want to walk only with my essence.
I owe only my own heart.
And now I pay that debt:
I forgive, love and protect myself.
This is my inner farewell letter.
Not to you, but to myself, whom I have silenced in the past.
I exist now.
And that's how I'm okay.
-Derya
I choose not to respond to these messages.
Not responding is not disrespectful, an expression of my self-respect.
The guilt is not mine.
The burden I carry no longer belongs to me.
I want to heal, not fight.
And that's why I hear myself most where I am silent
That's so high or am I just too small 🌸
**The light in my eyes**
I am afraid -
not of the fall,
not of the silence,
that sometimes comes.
But of it,
that timid hands
touch my inside
and whisper: *"Don't be so bright. "*
But this light -
it is not a spark,
that can be extinguished,
not a fire,
that consumes.
It is a gentle glow,
that carries me,
a moonbeam,
that cuts through darkness.
Let me shine,
just as I am.
No less,
no more.
"I choose not to respond to these messages.
Because it's a way for me to keep my soul.
Not responding is not disrespectful,
an expression of my self-respect.
The guilt is not mine.
The burden I carry no longer belongs to me.
I want to heal, not fight.
And that's why I hear myself most where I am silent."
From dear Derya to Derya's heart
I don't write to you anymore, I write to myself. because in this story I was the most tired, the most silent, the most understanding.
All this time I tried to understand you, out of a sense of sisterhood, out of loyalty to the family, out of a debt to the past, but now I realise: understanding doesn't mean I have to forgive.
You have expressed your reality many times. but I tried to swallow my own experiences and feelings.
Each time it stayed in my throat. Even in my dreams it sat in me like raw meat, the taste of which still lingers on my palate.
I don't want that taste anymore.
I no longer try to digest the relationships that hurt me.
I no longer silence myself.
I no longer feel guilty.
And most importantly: I'm on my own side now.
You won't have the last word. Because this is not a court of law. This is my life. And only I decide which door to leave open.
That's enough now.
This letter is not about you, it's about me.
I'm liberating myself.
I'm blessing my fragility.
And finally, I choose to hear my own inner voice.
With love,
Derya

Today is your final chance to do it. You will never be able to again!
Always wanted to commission a SuperCorp fanart but have no means to? This might be your chance!
Hello, everyone! @kendrene has this idea of “paying a fanart forward”— you know like paying a coffee forward in cafés so the next person would get a free one but fanart!
So, this is for supercorp fans who always wanted to commission their own SC fanart but has no means to! Yup, out of the kindness of their heart, @kendrene would pay for a fanart! I’m honored to be their chosen artist for this. 🙇🏻♀️
How do we go about this?
We agreed that those interested could send me an anon ask (with your email pls!) of their commission ideas and I’ll send all of those ideas to kendrene. Kendrene will then pick the top 3 ideas to narrow the choices down (if we get a lot.) In the end, I’ll pick the ONE I can confidently draw!
So what can I draw for you? What’s the limitation? You have three choices:
A.) 6 (six) whole-body chibis (like 3x Supercorp chibi arts if I were to draw SC chibis as couple for example)
B.) half-body fanart of SuperCorp
C.) whole body fanart of either Lena or Kara
So you choose A, B or C. Then let me know in your ask what your commission ideas are!
Example: “Option B. I want Kara and Lena drinking wine and smiling fondly at each other. My email is gracie_something@yahoo.com”
I’m still quite busy though, so I can’t draw anything till March! So I guess the deadline for commission ideas will be in March! And you’ll get your commissioned piece by end of March!
I hope that was clear. Let me know if you have questions!
My only request would be keep it all rated PG! Thank you!!! ☺️
i’m not sure if it’s a blessing or a curse,
being able to see the good of everything.

How to Draw Native People: a Tutorial/Reference Guide
As requested, here is a basic guide for how to draw Indigenous peoples (mostly focused on North America)! Also please note that this is not an exhaustive list of Native American phenotypes/features, and more like an intro on very common features that can be found in us, and even then, not altogether at once on a single person’s face. I highly encourage the use of references and care taken into research when drawing. I may do a part 2 that goes slightly more into depth, but for now, enjoy part one.
