A little note or virtual flowers can do wonders for a friend who is feeling very down...

I remembered I had a month's worth of notes to open up daily given to me by one of my besties in Singapore. Jojo was so sweet and she spent so much time doing it for me. I loved it. The song she picked out for me on one of those days remain close to my heart till today and plays on my phone as a favourite.

And a couple of weeks ago, I felt so 'depressed' and down and homesick. I am so glad I have whatsapp these days and its so much easier to keep in touch with friends back home. She dropped me a bouquet of virtual tulips to cheer me up on a Monday morning!

Thank you girlfriend, can't wait to head home and hang out xoxo

Happy Mother's Day!

Once a year, we show our appreciation to our mothers on a Sunday dedicated to them. This year, this day falls on 8th May, which is today. So here is a post specially dedicated to my mother who in my opinion, is the best one around. Her dedication and all-round love for sis and I is unwavering and steadfast. Thank you Mum, for everything. Words cannot express enough.

I remember getting her these glow in the dark flowers (paper roses). A special order thing from a JC club which didn't cost cheap. I just thought it was something different.


One of her favourite kind of flowers around. She likes to buy them for CNY especially and put them in vases around the house. I have grown to like them alot and the understated fragrance they carry. The house smell and look lovely with them.

Tulips. Her favourite kind of flowers. They don't thrive too well in the heat. Nevertheless, for her birthday once, sis and I got a vaseful from online and surprised her with a morning delivery when we were all out of the house. I must go find the photos of those tulips...

What did you get for your mama? I know carnations are the flowers of the day but I am so not into them. I rather do pink roses...

Perhaps, pink daisies? Daddy got me these during my A levels period. Just to cheer me up when I was doing all the studying. Mummy used to say he never got her any flowers.

I thought this photo was just really appropriate for Mother's Day.

Have you told your mama you love her? Well, today is just a day to remind you to do so. But remember how much she does for you, a day is so not enough to show your appreciation. A surprise once in a while won't hurt. Three little words don't cost nothing. And a 'thank you' from your lips is gold to her.
