Happy Birthday Dear


HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MY BEAUTIFUL BEST FRIEND :)


happy birthday, i wouldn't imagine life without you ~!
Today is a special day.
It is my special girl's birthday , she is the most wonderful person you'll ever meet.
She drives boys wild with her drop-dead gorgeous looks and her killer personality ;)
She is one of a kind and if any of you hurt her, you'll have no choice but to deal with me..

AND I'LL BREAK YOU LIKE A CHOPSTICK >:[

I've known you since the little days of year seven , the good old days
where 100% was easily achievable xD

BEST FRIENDS WE WERE
unseparable, 
irreplaceable, 
ONE-OF-A-KIND.

I know, problems got in the way of our friendship sometimes,
but i knew our friendship could prevail over all these circumstances.

you know i was cleaning out my things and i found my year 10 school diary.

do you remember what you wrote on it ?
i shall enlighten you.

"Friends are like butt cheeks , 
crap may separate them 
but they always come together."
( this is true ain't it, we're living proof of that. )


So to you on this day, I wish you a happy birthday.
Never give up on yourself, cause you're a quality lady and I wouldn't know what I'd do without you.
You're a beautiful person inside and out and don't let anyone else tell you otherwise.
I think from all that we've been through, you know that I'll always be here for you no matter what.
Just gimme the word and I'll be there for you.
You just know how to make me happy, even it meant showing up on my doorstep with San Churros
just to cheer me up.
Our countless memories will forever stay with me and I hope we have many more to come. 
Our world needs more genuine people like you, so keep your head up.
No situation is too big that you aren't able to get through with the help of your friends and family.
We all love you very much :) Especially me of course .
Hope you had a really good day spending it with your lovely mummy .

Love From,
YOUR BESTIE :)

we got that , "no you hang" up kinda love.

the past few days, i've been surrounded by adult couples.
their mannerisms are quite different to teenagers.


Adults don't mind bringing up past relationships at the dinner table.


Hubby : (talking to japanese lady) Yes, i used to live in Japan for about 9 months.
Wife : He met a japanese woman there, he was gonna marry her.
Jap : Oh really, what happened ?
Hubby : It didn't work out.
Wife : Tell them more about her.
Hubby: (awkward pause) I don't wanna say too much or i might be sleeping on the couch.
Everyone laughs.


Teenagers, especially girls mind when you bring up past relationships.
i think jealousy is just an emotion to show how much we care about you :P

Adults don't feel the need for PDA.


They keep is strictly PG 13+

Teens aren't as self-conscious when it comes to PDA.


Adults are professional, long-term romantics, they've grown up with personal experiences and innovation to know how to sweep each other off their feet.

there's this old man who loved his wife very much and every week since they were married he would buy her a bouquet of flowers. Even after her passing, he still buys it for her. What a romantic :)

Teens suffer from infatuation and inexperience, and girls have a high standard set from movies and dramas, which are quite unrealistic at times.
girls really imagine this as a dream date.
Guys imagine this as a dream date.
REGARDLESS of the differences.

Everything happens for a reason


Do you find that things you plan don't always go as expected ?




Like yesterday for instance, i overslept and missed my friend's birthday dinner.
We were supposed to get there at 6:30 and i fell asleep at 6 and woke up at 10:30
( the next morning ). i know, fail whale right?
Today wasn't any better.
I was planning to go top ryde, cause i was epic craving oporto chips.
BUT, i missed the bus by 8minutes and the next bus came in an hour later.
Then we decided to go to Chatty and we missed the train by 1minute.
My timing was so off today, I think it was cause of the extreme amount of sleep i got.

Faith: An institution to express belief in a divine power.

I went to KYCK, the past weekend.
and i've learnt a lot from that camp.
The thing that I realised was the phrase one of the speakers said :

" USE IT OR LOSE IT "
he was referring to a person's faith. 
It doesn't just improve on its own,
 it gradually dwindles. 
Faith is a shrinking process without action.

Frankly, sometimes you realise certain things that you didn't before.
It comes unexpectedly.
you realise..you can't always get rid of painful past experiences.
you realise .. you just made a fool of yourself.

you realise..parents have the ability to change their minds.

you realise..people have the ability to be a douche


you realise.. there's a positive outcome to every situation.


Realisation is a gift, keep being optimistic towards life.

A friend once told me a quote and i try to apply my life by it

"A person's success is not measured by how high they climb. 
Rather it is measured by how hard they bounce back
 when they hit rock bottom. "

once upon a fairytale

helpful insight to women.


i know a story of this girl who couldn't stop hurting inside
traumatic experiences maybe ? .. who knows.
well this is her story.


she always lived life with a guarded wall in front of her
because she was scared of what would happen when someone
would one day tear that wall down.
well, that day came when a boy stepped into her life.
he treated her with so much respect and guidance that her wall
started to crumble.. she started to smile again.
NOT those fake smiles that she always seemed to put on for show,
but to really smile, a genuine emotion.


BUT, she started to take him for granted,
which in turn made her lose him.
she somehow already saw this coming, but she 
still couldn't do anything to change it.
sleepless nights came her way, filled with tearful moments. 
she thought to herself 
" so this is how it feels .. to lose something that meant so much to you."


she decided to take a walk outside 
to calm her mind, and make sense of what had happened.
a police approached her asking if she was alright.
she wanted to just break out and just say 
"no, everything is not alright. i can't take feeling this way ..cause it's hurting so bad."
but who was she to do this to a stranger.
instead she said she was fine and the police drove off.


the only thing she could do to forget about him
was if he could tell her that he hated her and never wanted to talk to her again.
so she could get inside her head, that she wasn't wanted anymore.
she heard in his voice how hard it was for him to say,
to let go of someone so dear to her was the hardest part.
she just decided the best thing for her was to figure out things for herself,
to let go of him completely would be impossible.
she cared so much, she knew she had to let go.


the boy once mentioned that his mum told him not to ever make a girl cry.
BUT, the girl just wanted to say that the tears she shed wasn't cause 
of the boy hurting her in any way.
It was because she realised how wrong she has been to treat someone so good
to her like that, she realised what she had lost.


even though they part their own ways for now..
they know that their friendship can hold on.
she did promise him that she would always be there for him,
she still stands by her promise.
but for now as she still hurts , she must pretend to be alright.
for his sake.


what happens to her now ?
well , her wall that once opened up to him.
slowly, starts to builds up.


all she needs at this moment is one of those..
i-will-hug-it-out-till-you-feel-better  kinda hugs.


gotta love cartoons :)

Taylor Swift

To me fearless is not the absence of fear.
It's not being completely unafraid.
To me, fearless is having fears.
Fearless is having doubts. Lots of them.
To me, fearless is living in spite of those things that scare you to death.
Fearless is getting back up and fighting for what you want over and over again..even though every time you've tried before, you've lost it.
It's fearless to have that that someday things will change.
Fearless is having the courage to say goodbye to someone who only hurts you, even if you can't breathe without them.
Then, moving on and being alright.. That's fearless too.
But no matter what it throws are you, you have to believe it.


Hope you enjoyed my weird short story :) ~!

this is your life.

i got shown this photo and i found it mega inspirational,
so i thought it would be nice to share.
since my internet is being gay, i'll type it out..

THIS IS YOUR LIFE.
DO WHAT YOU LOVE,
AND DO IT OFTEN.
IF YOU DON'T LIKE SOMETHING, CHANGE IT.
IF YOU DON'T LIKE YOUR JOB, QUIT.
IF YOU DON'T HAVE ENOUGH TIME, STOP WATCHING TV.
IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR THE LOVE OF YOU LIFE, STOP;
THEY WILL BE WAITING FOR YOU WHEN YOU
START DOING THINGS YOU LOVE.
STOP OVER ANALYSING, LIFE IS SIMPLE.
ALL EMOTIONS ARE BEAUTIFUL.
WHEN YOU EAT, APPRECIATE EVERY LAST BITE.
OPEN YOUR MIND, ARMS, AND HEART TO NEW THINGS 
AND PEOPLE, WE ARE UNITED IN OUR DIFFERENCES.
ASK THE NEXT PERSON YOU SEE WHAT THEIR PASSION IS,
AND SHARE YOUR INSPIRING DREAM WITH THEM.
TRAVEL OFTEN, GETTING LOST WILL HELP YOU FIND YOURSELF.
SOME OPPORTUNITIES ONLY COME ONCE, SEIZE THEM.
LIFE IS ABOUT THE PEOPLE YOU MEET, AND
THE THINGS YOU CREATE WITH THEM
SO GO OUT AND START CREATING.
LIFE IS SHORT.
LIVE YOUR DREAM AND SHARE YOUR PASSION.

the cambodians can sure throw one heck of a party :D
props to DAVE for inviting me , thanks ~!


i mega super love weddings.
they're like the epitome of the happiest moments in life.


i appreciate every aspect of a wedding ..


the music..
a blend of old school and new school, gotta love that :)
the gorgeous dresses and suave suits..
bride's dress, absolutely stunning !
the jovial attitudes of guests..
happy guests = happy time :)
the fist pumping ..
i've never danced at a wedding like that before x)
the venue..
SPECTACULAR CAPITALISED FULL STOP.
the food..
dessert will make you salivate.
the atmosphere..
welcoming and entertaining 
the lights..
crystal lights and rainbow colours :D
the speeches..
definitely tear-jerkingly sentimental
the traditional throwing of the boquet..
playing to the song of "SINGLE LADIES"
the little kids..
were too adorable :3
those people that you think had a little TOO much to drink..
yikes , that was an intimidating experience.

basically, the whole ambience 
of the room makes me smile :)

HIGHLIGHTS.
-going back and forth from the car gave me one heck of an exercise

-the awesome dessert , three-layered sorbet YUMMM
-the music was amazing and there were some pretty pro dance moves going on

it perfectly emphasised their love for God 
and the much loved support from their family
and with that, God provides abundantly with blessings.

to make it less generic, i'll just leave with my own words..
CONGRATULATIONS NEWLYWEDS
may you live your life according to god's plan 
and live prosperously through his guidance.
you set an example to everyone that true love is the REAL DEAL
and can be found in the most unpeculiar of places.

Revelations of signage

EXAMS ARE OFFICIALLY OVER :D 
..at least for now ><

sometimes we don't realise the simple things in life 
SIGNS.
sorry, i'm not gonna be writing much .
my minds still a blur from exams , BUT 
visual representations shall do the trick :)


maths
can develop a new hobby


english can be a pain, 
but you gotta admit they're right


 live life spontaneously, 
DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR RUBMA (; 


 Realise happiness 
has its simplicities 

Think of 
what you truly want out of life 

 Remembering 
that we do have limitations 
learn to let loose 
and let your guards down

once in a while , 
you gotta be thankful of god's blessings.


Hope this didn't waste a lot of your time :)
HAVE A GOOD REST OF THE WEEK Y'ALL

you don't have the right to judge me.


...because sometimes people do actually feel that way.
sometimes your life feels like it's caving in on you.
sometimes people really do feel like they don't want
to exist, like they want to just curl up in a ball, and
go into that place between life and death, saying "i
don't want to exist" isn't saying "i want to go die".
it's saying "i wish that, for the time being, i could go
somewhere and not have to feel." i don't think there's
anything wrong with that and if you don't know how
it feels to feel this way, then you have 
no place to judge anyone who does. 

ask yourself ..
change it if you aren't.

cause you know what i realised ?
you can't always rely on people, 
who you think are going to be there.
you can't wait for other people to save you, 
sometimes you have to save yourself.

BUT,
there's people out there who can restore your trust back in humanity.


sometimes, all you need is someone there to hug you.


NOTE TO SELF:
Forget things that stupid people have said and done to you.
Focus on the people who truly love and care for you.
Carry on with what you enjoy doing and do it with
 the extra knowledge that you and your heart are good.

P.S Thank you :)

once upon a disney tale

i feel like disney movies 
are like the most nostalgic thing ever.
i've never heard of anyone who's never seen a disney movie .
it's like the epitome of childhood memories .




my top five old-school fave disney films:
1. Little Mermaid
2. Tarzan
3. Lion King
4. Mulan
5. Aladdin

thumbs up for those generic happily ever after moments :)

Little Mermaid -
 "Yes, you want her
look at her, you know you do
possibly she wants you too
there's one way to ask her
It don't take a word,
not a single word.
Go on and kiss the girl."



Lion King-
"Hakuna Matata,
what a wonderful phrase.
It means no worries, 
for the rest of your days.
It's a problem free , philosophy.
Hakuna Matata."


Mulan
"I want her paler than the moon with eyes,
that shine like stars.
My girl will marvel at my strength,
adore my battle scars.
I couldn't care less what she'll wear
or what she looks like.
It all depends on what she cooks like,
Beef, pork, chicken.
..a girl worth fighting for."


 Aladdin
 "A whole new world,
a new fantastic point of view.
No-one to tell us no,
or where to go or,
say we're only dreaming.
A whole new world."




i wish i could have a disney moment,
music and the whole shebang :)
too bad there's not enough princes for all of us ..


What's your favourite Disney movie ?
