Hi.
Here I am. Sipping my cup of tea. Enjoying my butter cookie. Listening to some good music.
These are the times I'd normally listen to good sentimental music that reminds me of the reason why I live. What I've been through and why I'm still standing strong. Life is hard- no one can deny that. But life is a journey. Without making mistakes, I wouldn't even know what to improve. We are who we choose to be, as said by some quote I found online. If we choose to be a failure, we shouldn't move on from our mistakes. But no one wants to be a failure, I bet.
There comes a time in everyone's life when we feel useless, unforgiven, forgotten, we feel we want to die, our heart breaks into pieces. I've been there. And it sure isn't easy to stand back up. All you do, you keep remind yourself that you're not worth living. I get it. But all those are all in your mind. YOU are the one in control of your life. You could either be YOU or let others destroy you. You could cry all day long remembering back the memories that destroyed you to pieces, or be the one who would take all those pieces and build a better piece of happiness. Life is a gift. God gave you something no one else has. Strength. He knows you are strong enough to handle this. So be YOU.
Give it time. Enjoy every little things in life.
xoxo, izz.

Before I start ranting about the reasons some online shops don’t deserve to be in
business and praises, I would like you (yes, you, the one who’s reading this, whoever you are) to excuse my
frankness and forthrightness. These are my personal opinions and experiences,
if you think of the opposite of what I wrote, you can stop reading this post (might as well just exit my blog page).
However, I strongly believe that being
straightforward is the only way my opinions can be heard.
Recently, I purchased xxxx on and online store at Instagram. Let’s just say their store
name is ccshop (not even close to the name of the store). I was really excited because
I bought heck of a lot of xxxx at ccshop. FYI, in my opinion what matters
most too online store is customer
service. They lack of expertise (sorry
to say). I can’t deny that some shops are great at dealing with customers
but some are just plain terrible.
To continue, this so-claimed-rich-kid-who-owns-the-store (ccshop), was the one dealing with customers and etc. She/he replied
to all of her/his customer’s whatsapp and whatsoever. I mean I get it, to have
your phone ringing all the time is
just….gaahh annoying. But these are customers we’re talking about. If
you don’t think you can handle that sort of pressure, why even start an online
shop without proper management?
I thought of posting a screen grab but I can’t
because that would just reveal the real identity of the oh-so-famous-shop. Since I am a nice kitty kat, I won’t J
So, here a piece of thought to all those
self-claimed-successful chicks/hunks who
wants to start an online business. Customer
service is important. One report
from the customer to the world, you’ll lose
all your money on that god damn lack of expertise of yours in dealing with
customers especially people like me who are perfectionists.
Maybe you could even re-consider of having 2
phones; 1. For personal use, 2.
For business use. See? It’s not that
hard. Just a simple mind juicing could help you and your business.
Or even if phone is too expensive, e-mail anyone?
And oh, I’m soooooooooooo not buying from that store
anymore >,<
what may looks like as if I was fastening my buttons on my graduation dress, I was actually thinking of a few thoughts... I knew in that moment that this was it. My very last year of a self-explanatory building full of immature kids and teachers. I can't believe I made it to the end. All my life (since standard 1, actually) I've always wanted to ditch and give school bye bye. But since I've graduated and finished a chapter of my life... I feel like I want to relive those moments..
When you’re in school, your biggest problems are deadlines for school work and getting the grades you are expected to get. Not to mention the social pressure. You feel as though there is no outside world, that school is it. That your problems are so huge, you fail to realise the current affairs going on on the outside world. The bigger picture.
This is a message to the kids who are still in secondary.
Skip classes, and run around.
Take your time eating your lunch, take as long as you need.
Take the longer way when going to the to the toilet.
When your school holds those events where you are not involved in and you just sit in class like a doodoo head. Climb the gates and get out. Go anywhere else.
Term exams aren’t that important. Finals are.
Question the teachers, always ask lots of questions. Keep asking why. (Then you’ll know they’re humans too, and they don’t know everything
Find your group of friends, even if it’s 1 person. You need a back up to survive.Don’t bully, or get bullied. Stand up for yourself.
Don’t do anything you don’t want to.Just because you don’t get the best grades, doesn’t mean you’re not smart.
Do fall in love. Don’t get pregnant. Don’t trust teachers. NEVER. He/She is not that important. You are. Whatever you do. DO NOT GET CAUGHT.

I find that secondary school is the time of your life to rebel. You’re not going to get second chances in the real world. You are in your own world; You are allowed to be oblivious. You are given second chances, third, even fourth. Endless. You are there to make mistakes.
Now, graduated and moving on. I learnt more than what was printed in textbooks, and assigned in homework. School taught me the sense of individuality. It taught me to be my own person, and flow against the current. It showed me how to define myself rather than letting others define me. I educated myself, and painted my own picture. And I’m leaving with the best memories of my life.
And I thank my schools for that.
