despite how talkative i am, i always still tend to drift off into my own space and sometimes avoid talking to other people. when my sister was out playing with the other kids in our neighborhood, i’d stay at home and watch captain planet or ghost busters while eating instant noodles and crackers. in high school, instead of spending summer out with friends, i’d while away the afternoon writing a novice novel or different short stories. i appreciated alone time and made sure to have a few hours to myself just to keep myself sane. however, on the first night alone in our house — with both my sisters having moved out, i found the time alone to be utterly sad. i finally, after 25 years have the room all to myself but it felt weird. so i succumb to the one game i avoided the most — plants vs zombies. God help me.

Hi, my name is Gizelle Faye. I am an artist, florist, stylist, calligrapher, letterer, mum, and wife to Harry.
I am a bohemian risk-taker who fell in love with an old soul. Three months before our wedding in 2012, I went cuckoo and left my corporate job to pursue my dreams and founded Cuckoo Cloud Concepts. For about a decade, I was the creative director of Cuckoo Cloud Concepts, dreaming up unforgettable and picture-perfect moments from a tropical island called Cebu. I specialized and honed my skills in photo shoot styling, product styling, floristry, calligraphy, and lettering.
During the pandemic, I rediscovered my love for painting amidst the dark times. The universe proved a lot more cuckoo than me and sent me and my family on a journey that will find us in Camden, New South Wales.
But I vow to always bloom where I am planted. Today, in this new city, I host art workshops and offer social media content styling and creation, and other creative services for small businesses.
Here, you will find an archive of my paintings and other works of art inspired by nature, scenes, architecture, and BTS, as well as art events I run in different venues in Sydney.

I am the same way. When I was younger (even now), I would keep to myself a lot and I enjoyed it. People around me probably thought I was just a lonely person but i liked being with my own thoughts 🙂 I know exactly what you mean!
ack!!!Gizelle! I'm addicted to that game, haha. ipinaalala mo sa akin ang aking kabaliwan haha., “bbrrraaaiiinnnsss”…
God help us, sis^^
I hear yah! Being lonely is so much different from being alone. 🙁 You'll get by, for sure. That Plants vs Zombies game will be there to guide you…LOL!
Really chic outfit, btw! I love the bag!♥
Mag-Angry Birds ka na rin! I heared it's fun, too! 🙂 But seriously, maybe it's a sign for you to start another short story, perhaps about sisters? 😀
*heard :))
Aw this is sad 🙁 I love being alone too and I totally used to do exactly what you did! I even love being alone in my apartment. But once my roommate is gone and I'm alone again, it gets lonely. And that feeling sucks. I guess you just cherish the time you have with them even more now! 🙂
Very cute wedges by the way!! 🙂

i definitely need time to myself as well. don't be lonely – enjoy the time ? 🙂

The vintage dress is adorable! And I've always been like that as well; I've really treasured my solitude. And with your sisters being away, I'm sure you only feel that way because you miss them. 🙂 Hopefully, you guys will have a happy Christmas, no matter where you live.
And! Plants vs. Zombies is awesums!
