Are you listening?

Take some time and watch this:



Don't drown your own voice with everyone else's. You need to start listening to yourself.

Of relationships and other stuff



This is how I describe my love life.

I don't want to be that person yakking away about how much I want to be involved in your life.

Just got these off Earl Grey Party, can't wait to get my hands on them.

Kate Spade Pop-up store in London

As I patiently wait for my Kate Spade BB pouch to arrive (another 15 ++ days to be exact), Kate Spade never fails to tickle my fancy, girl....

Kate Spade opens their Pop-up Store in London on 13th October with a twist of whimsical and sweetness.



What's a pop-up store, you may ask? Pop-up retail has been increasingly popular with major brands, as the name suggests it's a store that pops up out of nowhere, drawing a lot of buzz and crowd, and then disappear or morph into something else, adding to retail the fresh feel, exclusivity and surprise that galleries, theatres and Cirque du Soleil-adepts have been using for years. In Kate Spade's pop-up apartment, it consists of 4 rooms: lounge, kitchen, dining room and bedroom. For you Londeners, there will be KS merchandise exclusive for this pop-up store in London only.


I totally dig the floors. If you noticed, its not exactly new, it has this touch of vintage that really makes it a lot more exclusive and homely. Doesn't this remind you of their Envelope design Kate Spade Clutch?




The living room reminded me so much of Alice in Wonderland. The bags hung there looked as though they were hanging in mid-air. Cute much?





Hurry people, the pop-up store will only be in London, Covent Garden till 10th November. Can't wait to see where their next stop will be.


Whatever happened to 8 letters, 3 words & 1 fucking meaning?!

I don't know why I like to piss myself off like that..... Has anyone of you catch up on the latest season of Gossip girl?

I AM SO MAD PISSED WITH CHUCK (CB) BASS!! Ugh.



How can someone so hot be so fucked up? I don't mean like BAD ASS fucked up.. like fucked up fucked up!!! See, Chuck Bass got us so swooned over his mean streak and possibly the most bad ass playboy we've seen in awhile in TV Series History but what is happening? In Season 3, we started to see a changed Chuck Bass (ok, I can deal with that because you know, even the meanest person will change especially when love is the motivational factor) but at the end of the season, the writers left us on possibly the HIGHEST cliff (ever) with him devastatingly stabbed on the streets in Europe after letting down Blair by sleeping with Little J. So super aww right?

(Those of you who haven't managed to get the chance to watch the series, don't let me spoil it for you, I want you to feel the agony the writers put me through! STOP READING!)

(I know you're still reading...........)

While waiting for the new season to unveil itself, I was happy they brought in a new character Juliet starred by Katie Cassidy (I love this woman la! You have to watch Melrose Place 2009 to know how beautiful this woman is!) but seriously, what is Juliet's deal? Anyway, we'll get to that but what really annoyed me was Chuck BassTARD's character development was so poorly done that I'm yawning to tears everytime they switch the scene to see how in love he is with his ugly but kind french girlfriend (she is really ugly btw, no kidding) and what BAFFLES me was how can he put everything behind him so quickly and moved on? Hello, GG writers, you people were the ones who made us believe that Chuck and Blair were meant for each other and then out of a sudden you turn Chuck into this.. erm.. heartless guy who moved the fuck on after he let down the woman who has been there for him all these while? (I know it's hard to believe I'd describe Blair as such a person but she is) Seriously, wtf?

Logically, it doesn't make sense. Now Chuck is all out to ruin Blair's life just because she made his french girlfriend leave. If I really wanted to see Chuck and Blair fight each other's guts out, I'd rewatch Season 1. Dear GG writers, I am really annoyed to a point where I don't know where this season is taking me to. To be very frank, supporters of Chuck and Blair really only want to see them happy together and plotting against OTHER PEOPLE together not each other! At least that's what I want.

Oh and about Juliet, I'm not THAT annoyed with her yet because she's so pretty but I'd really stab myself to death if in the end she's some psycho killer back for revenge. I think we all got the latter part right but you know, what is everyone's deal with coming up against Serena?

This is an open angry fan letter to the GG writers, please wake the fuck up and write better scripts.

Thanks.

Back from Phuket

Hello!

As the title suggests, I'm back to sunny Singapore. I missed home. Wish Phuket was more of a blast than I hope it would be. But anyway, it was a good getaway ♡

Thailand's one of my favorite countries. I like the warmth she gives and how everybody's always smiling. Went to Bangkok last year and did lots of shopping, this year's Phuket was really chillax to the max. The beaches were nice and the resort we stayed at was awesome. Check out Metadee Resort the next time you plan to visit Phuket! I left bits of my heart there.

I missed my bestfriend so much, I met her today. Happy to hear your exchange programme to Hongkong came true, have a blast for me! I love you, bitch!

Also painted my nails dark purple to match my new mustard bag!

To Joshua

I hate cleaning my desk or my shelves because I'll always find something that somehow manage to take me down a trip memory lane. Be it painful or not. Sometimes trips like these... are uncalled for. Or that deluded mini me refuse to go back in time and watch how I used to hurt people without batting my lashes.

I found a dusty folder with a couple of torn out pages from a note book written by a long lost friend. People call them love letters. It was couple years back during my angsty and super hiao teenage years, I met Joshua.

Joshua's the kind of buddy who's always around. He's the kinda guy to tell you nice things but mean to you sometimes. He's not the best looking bloke but he's so smart you wish all your dates were half like him. Joshua was a great friend.

That year I had plans to leave for Australia to further my studies, so he brought me for dinner and gave me this note book as a farewell gift. Sure enough, there after we never meet again. I lost him as a friend too due to my lack of sensitivity. Pure idiocy, I say. I still remember the last thing he ever said to me was - "Have a nice life."

Anyway, it was a scrap book, some sort. With badly printed pictures of us and funny scribbles.. That 'bad girl' I used to be actually was so loved by someone.

Here's what the final note read:

Dear April,
As I already told you in my blog, the book is meant for you to write down all the things you love about yourself. You are so beautiful to me. Your feistiness, the way you feel strongly about family, your insecurities and your strength. Everything that you are is perfect to me. I hope that as you embark upon the journey in Australia, you will learn to discover everything that I told you about you. I wish you could see yourself though my eyes. But I guess it always takes time. Oh yeah on another note, don't forget to remember me.

He also wrote a couple of poems to/about me, here's my favourite, titled "Angel":

To break my heart and the serene sky,
To cause the rainfalls from on high.
To kill the songs of the birds,
All you have to do is cry.

Walk upon the empty road,
Destination still unknown.
You are my guide through all the world,
My love, my destiny.

If I could have you now as mine,
Pain and hell I shall deny.
Yet broken bits of memory lay,
So much flowers we have to slay.

Thus let us go into the night,
of endless darkness, of little sight.
And perhaps blinds us now forever,
So we cannot see that we can never.

For you, the stars will die.
Joshua.

To Joshua, thank you for believing in me and that convinced me that I could be someone's perfection. We may not be friends anymore and though memories of our friendship are tugged away at the back of my mind, I wish you well. I hope you're somewhere doing great with your life and met someone who deserves your love.

Thank you for your love.

April
