Love yourself for who you are and just keep going.

"Love yourself for who you are and just keep going."

(Ripped from Tumblr)

Sometimes I just don't understand adults (and I know they don't understand us as well). Tsktsk, instead of just scolding, ranting and screaming your heads off, why don't you all just provide some constructive suggestions for me? When something bad happens, stop and think and help me solve the matter! Screaming doesn't solve anything, omg. And it is just a small matter like a phone case. T.T Sighpie.

Anyways, on a happier note, my new Samsung phone finally arrived yesterday! Woohoo!~ Excited much, but I'm such a technology noobie. T.T Hahahas, I'm downloading all my applications and transferring my files now. :D Cheers! Couple phone with Eve? LOLOL! But what the hell is wrong with Whatsapp Plus, arghs! I like their functions, but it seemed as though it can't be downloaded on both my xiaomi and my S4 phones?!

Pardon my super noobie camera skills. Hahahas, I can't seem to capture the make-you-salivate-feeling of the cake. T.T Yups, so this month is my mummy's birthday month and lucky her just got her own Starbucks card, so here's goes: Starbucks' cheesecake! Awesome food, accompanied by my favourite white mocha drink omg. :D I'm in bliss. (P.S. Why does it sound like my birthday instead?)

Hahahas, alright. My prelims aren't done, one more day. One more Chem MCQ paper, and I'm off on a clique date on Monday. Can't wait! Mwahahahas!


A rose can never be a sunflower,
and a sunflower can never be a rose.
All flowers are beautiful in their own way,
and that's like women too.

I got your name tattooed in an arrow heart.

Aim high. Soar high.

So yups, I'm writing this in the midst of the preparation of Prelims.  Because I was so bored from studying. Hahahas! /inserts sheepish grin/ But still, we still have to 'Take a break! Have a KitKat!' Though I'm eating some snacks too, but not KitKat. LOL! :D

Anyways, I went on a lunch date with Vivian after my Teachers' Day celebrations last last Thursday. Awesome meal @ Ssikkek Korean BBQ located at Novena! :DDD

(Buffet style Korean BBQ)

(Zoom-in on the different types of meat)

Hahahas! :D The BBQ is quite cheap, it is like $17 after GST and service charge and everything. Quite worth the price, hahahas! I saw many AJCians at the same restaurant, including Chaomin and Kangwei. LOL! :D Great minds think alike to have our meals at the same restaurants.

P.S. A plus point in the restaurant is that there is a gigantic tv in front of me, screening the performances of certain kpop groups. Woohoo!~ Although Infinite didn't appear at all, I saw Apink and 2NE1 and everyone. Hahahas! :D

(What's a meal without a selfie time!)

Hahahas! :D Thanks for the great day babes! Although the day sucked at the end because we had a 3h Econs tuition. LOL! :D

Throwback to a recent Creamier date with Xiaofang! It was the day when my Samsung Note crashed on me. Wtf. Anyways, back to topic:

(Xiaofang's Gula Melaka ice-cream)

(My Hazelnut waffle ice-cream)

I'm craving for Creamier, so yups. Hahahas! :D Creamier never fails, still as delicious as ever! Though Xiaofang says she still prefer Salted Caramel, but I think Creamier is not bad lehs! #mysimplethoughts

Alright, back to studying.
必胜! Hahahas!

Aim high. Soar high.

Every leaf speaks bliss to me, fluttering from the autumn tree.

(Ripped from Tumblr)

Happy Belated Mid-Autumn Festival! :D

Okay, it was four days ago. Hahahas! Sorry I'm late! :P Mooncakes, lanterns, sparkles. Let's see. When have I last celebrate Mid-Autumn? Hmm, I think the last time I carried a lantern was during P1, P2 that era. /shakes head/ Omg, #nochildhood #poppyflowerisakiddo

Kidding. I had mooncakes every year, just no lanterns. I am too old for that, :P #tryingtoactmature LOLOL!

And to replace lanterns and sparkles, I had pizza instead. Hahahas! :D After three hours of Econs tuition with Vian on Monday, we decided to head to Pizzahut for lunch. Woohoo!~ However, I didn't get to try the new Cheesy 7 Pizza because Vian ate it before and nobody wants to share with me D:

Tried their new flavour pizza though - Seafood Deluxe Personal Pan! Mwahaha! :D Taste not bad, omo! Many many seafood toppings. I'm in bliss!

(Check out my pizza!)

Hahahas! :D Okay nothing much. What I did to celebrate the rest of the day, is to watch my tv shows. Last episode of Here Comes Mr Oh! and the Superstar Singing Competition. Okay, I officially declare that I have no life. Hahahas! :D


They say nothing lasts forever
We're only here today
Love is now or never
So bring me far away

I wish I could rewind all the times.



Everything I Didn't Say
5 Seconds of Summer


This is everything I didn't say


Wait, don't tell me
Heaven is a place on earth
I wish I could rewind all
the times that I didn't
show you what you're really worth
(What you're really worth)

The way that you held me
I wish that I'd put you first
I was wrong I admit
Numb from your kiss
While you were slipping through my fingertips

Taking every breath away
With all of the mistakes I've made
From all the letters that I've saved
This is everything I didn't say
I wish I could've made you stay
And I'm the only one to blame
I know that it's a little too late
This is everything I didn't say

This is everything I didn't say

Wake me up now
And tell me this is all a bad dream
All the songs that I wrote
All the wrongs that I hoped would erase from your memory
Holding onto a broken and empty heart
Flowers I should've bought
All the hours I lost
Wish I could bring it back to the start

Taking every breath away
With all of the mistakes I've made
From all the letters that I've saved
This is everything I didn't say
I wish I could've made you stay
And I'm the only one to blame
I know that it's a little too late
This is everything I didn't say

I hope you know
For you I'd sacrifice
To make this right

Some day I'm sure
We'll pass each other by
Until that time

Taking every breath away
With all of the mistakes I've made
From all the letters that I've saved
This is everything I didn't say
I wish I could've made you stay
And I'm the only one to blame
I know that it's a little too late
This is everything I didn't say

This is everything I didn't say

You keep the sunshine, save me the rain.

After reading reports on some recent accidents, from the plane crashes to a car accident of a Kpop Girl Group, I came to realise the fragility of life.

Life is a lot more fragile than we think. And we should cherish it. Cherish everyone and everything that has ever make their way into our lives, be it good or bad. It will be too late to hold any regrets. Because life is so unpredictable, that we do not know what will happen in the next moment.

So we should treat others sincerely. "It's too easy not to make the effort, then weep and wring your hands after the person dies." Treat people in such a way where you will not leave any regrets behind.

So we have recently gained many angels in the heaven. May they be blessed with better lives in their next lives. And you only live once. So live life to the fullest, and learn the importance of cherish.

There are times when I,
looked back to those past memories.
Were we really happy?
Were those what we want?
Only unknown feelings remain.

Today is an important day!
All I want to say is,
Happy Teachers' Day!
Thank you teachers for your patience in teaching us.

Special dedication to Teacher Winnie, my favourite music teacher in the world, who taught me for the past seven years. Hahahas! Thanks for putting up with my nonsense and believing in me. :D Cheers!

Thanks to MsYeo as well, hahas. Though I'm not in the least close to you, but thanks for all the efforts that you have put in for us. We really appreciate it. :D

(Selfie with MsYeo!)

Special thanks to Tony Lee, my maths teacher, as well! (: He is getting married this weekend (I swear, he purposely set this date so he wouldn't have to invite all of us since it is in the midst of our Prelims), so I wish him a blissful marriage, and 早生贵子! :DDD Thanks for being so entertaining and making Maths lessons so enjoyable.

(Check out the figurine & cute card that le clique got for him!)

(Special thanks for Poppyf for wrapping the gift!)

Once again, wishing all the teachers a wonderful Teachers' Day! :D


Closed off from love, I didn't need the pain
Once or twice was enough and it was all in vain
Time starts to pass, before you know it, you're frozen
My heart's crippled by the vein that I keep on closing

Hearts are wild creatures, that's why our ribs are cages.

"Families are like quilts; lives pieced together, stitched with smiles and tears, colored with memories and bound by love."

I found this quote so inspiring and meaningful, so I decided to share with you readers. Hahas! :D And yups, this post is on my mummy's birthday! One of my favourite person in the world. Hehehes!

Once again, Happy Birthday to my lovely Mummy! :D

(birthday cake from Prima Deli)

Fruit Paradise birthday cake from Prima Deli, bought by my Daddy. Hahahahas! :D This cake is much nicer and much cheaper than the previous one (Salted Caramel for my Daddy's birthday). ROFL!

Other than a cake, we can't do without a birthday dinner celebration as well! :D
A scrumptious seafood meal @ Changi Village!
Chilli crabs! Woohoo! :D
P.S. I realised Changi Village is another food paradise. :DDD

(Picture of me instead of my mummy, hahas!)

(A zoom-in on the crab)

(Stingray, Mixed Vege and Salad Prawn Balls)

(A delicious fish dish!)

A great day spent with my grandmother and my family. It is worth it to spend half a day out eating such great delicacies then to stay at home and mug for next day's GP prelim papers :P

Got a thermal flask for my mummy as a gift. (: Quite cute, because there is a bear logo printed on the flask, hahahas! #practicalbirthdayideas #hopeshelikeit #happybirthday

(Slice of Chocolate Cake)

Chocolate cake for my mummy by her boss! Awww, so sweet of her! Thankyou! The cake was super nice! And I shall end off with a picture of my recent study snack baked specially by my dearest mummy, :D Cranberry muffins!

(One-Of-A-Kind Cranberry Muffins)

Happy Birthday to you once again! :D
Loveyou truckloads!


No matter what you say about love
I keep coming back for more
Keep my hand in the fire, sooner or later
I get what I'm asking for
