How To Live With Yourself After You Break Someone’s Heart
Imagine that someone in this world loves you more than any song can song, and any phrase can express. You are the first thing on his mind every morning, and the last thing on his mind every night. He worships you. He can’t go more than ten minutes wondering what you are doing, and if you are happy. Your happiness and success are his only goals in life.
You are literally his drug. He doesn’t need narcotics or booze because you are his high. Everything you are, is everything he wants and the only thing he needs. He would take a bullet for you. He would kill someone for you. His love is that real.
And he tells you all the time, “I love you so much.” And you can feel it in his presence. You can see it in the way he looks at you and the way he bares his soul. In the way that he has made himself a better person, for you.
It is a fairytale. Except that it isn’t.
The only problem is you don’t love him back. Maybe you did at one time and have fallen out of love. Maybe you never loved him at all. Maybe you do love him, but not enough to save you. How do you live with yourself, knowing that you have literally crushed the soul of another? How do you sleep knowing that you may have scarred him for life? Knowing that he may never be able to love someone else, because of you.
The answer is simple: time and conscious thought. Time doesn’t completely heal all wounds, but it can help. At first it will seem like a selfish act…you are the villain. But in time you will understand that your happiness and your choices are just that, yours. Do your choices affect others? Absolutely. But can continue to blame yourself for the way other people choose to feel? Absolutely not. You deserve to be happy. You deserve to love whomever the hell you please. You are responsible for you, and that’s it.
Stop beating yourself up about it. Stop pitying him. He will get over it someday, on his own accord, when he is damn well ready. When he starts to take responsibility for his own happiness, and his own choices, he will be free from you. And he will feel stronger, and more able because of it.
Maybe he didn’t deserve for you to break his heart. But he certainly didn’t deserve your guilted-love either. Maybe he will find someone else, maybe he will never love again. Either way, that isn’t your concern. Take pride in the fact that you are brave enough to know what you want, and make the hard decisions that need to be made.
You aren’t a bad person because you broke someone’s heart. You aren’t a villain for not returning someone else’s love. You’re human. Someone may break your heart someday and then maybe you’ll understand both sides of the coin. But until then, remind yourself that no matter how much he loved you; you loved yourself a little more.
Because eventually you will find someone who you love, just as much as he loved you. And if you’re lucky, that person will love you too.

Another Love~ ♩ ♪ ♫ ♬
I wanna take you somewhere so you know I care
But it's so cold and I don't know where
I brought you daffodils in a pretty string
But they won't flower like they did last spring
And I wanna kiss you, make you feel alright
I'm just so tired to share my nights
I wanna cry and I wanna love
But all my tears have been used up

Spice Girls~
Its crazy to think its 18 years ago when this album was released (in 1996). It was one of the first albums I ever purchased and back then when you were 10years old, £12 was a lot of money! I used to know how to sing this whole album back to front! This album always puts an instant smile to my face ^_^ -Feeling nostalgic.
And their Greatest Hits (in 2007)
And their Greatest Hits (in 2007)
My personal favorite songs are Say You'll Be There, 2 Become 1, Mama, Too Much and Viva Forever.

Summary Of Past Few Months~
Finally! I have some time to update my so-called blog after my last entry 4 months ago. I must admit, I am very bad at keeping up to date. But anyway, a lot has happened over the past few months. I will highlight some of the most memorable moments throughout the months.
Start of October 2013: Booked flights to go to Canada with the girlfriend for a couple weeks in May 2014. Super excited! Last time I was there, it was 11 years ago! Can't believe how time has flown and I still remember it like it was yesterday. But this time going should be a bit more fun as I'm a lot older now, therefore I can go drinking haha! Also because I'm going with my partner in crime. She's a lot of fun to be around.
Mid October: Went to visit my girlfriend in Manchester. Had plenty of drinks and cigarettes although I think I tend to smoke when I'm around her. Had great fun, as usual. I have decided I will make it a yearly visit every October to go see her. It's crazy to think that I met this crazy little miss 10 years ago and we went from being strangers to becoming really good friends. And although she has moved abroad, things are always the same every time she's back in Ireland.
End of October: It was my birthday at the end of October and usually I would have a joint birthday with the girlfriend as her birthday is just a week after mine. I went out to dinner in Ballsbridge to celebrate although I'm not a birthday person.
I've also started Pole dancing classes with Alison and Bonnie. It is hard work! Need a lot of upper body strength. But hey, no pain, no gain. Although I'm not trying to gain anything, it's just something I've always wanted to do but had always been shy to. Hah! Me shy?! Hm....
Start of November 2013: Brought my cutie little brother to the airport as he is jetting of to South Korea for 3 whole months. Lucky him!
It was my grandmother's 5th year anniversary and it made me think of her for the whole day. She's my biggest inspiration and it brought a lot of tears to many people when she passed away.
Mid November: Got my braces off after 2 years, 5 months and 10 days later. I was suppose to keep track and take pictures and blog about it each time I had to get a tightening done but I've been so lazy and kind of forgot most of time so I'm going to scratch that off my list.
Started my 2nd term in Pole dancing. Still going strong! :)
Went to see my first ballet- Romeo and Juliet at the Bord Gais Theatre.
My love came home from America and I had never felt so happy to see him! Although he was home for the Summer and we had some issues, this time was different. As cheesy as it sounds, I've never met anyone like him before. He is some character for one character. We do have our differences but I guess that's why we mesh well together as he brings out the randomness in me and I keep him grounded for when he is up in the clouds. I guess no one will ever understand 'us'. And I like that.
December 2013: Can't think of any memorable moments in December except for it was Christmas! To be honest, I have never, ever, enjoyed Christmas. I'm a very 'home-ly' girl and had always enjoyed it when I was younger and having our family get together etc etc. But the past few years have been so over hyped and all about who got the better present or how much it was worth. There was nothing so 'family' about it since my parents divorced. But Christmas 2013- I had a good one.
That being said, it all came to a crashing halt when I found out something I shouldn't have about 'him'. It made me feel so down I didn't know what to do and to act being all right and all, it was just unreal. I don't even know how I endured the pain but I'm glad I had to go through that experience as it wouldn't have made me realize that I am a strong person.
End of December: Went to Mayo!! With the invincible 12- Me, Craig, Yan, Alan, Bonnie, Orla, Bacon, Mary, Ben, Gavin, Owen and Aisling. Had an amazing time and I can't stop thinking of the laughs and bants we had. And plus all those drinks we had playing beer pong/ big 2/ Monopolydeal/ Mahjong and what not. We stayed for 3 nights and on the 2nd night, the heating went so we were stuck in a house with no heating or hot water. Also, the rain was coming in through the letter box and Orla had to get tea towels and stuff the door. Was funny. And I got drunk @_@ The house was very beautiful and it was a great time to relax after the hectic festivity.
Anyway, I'm going to finish this blog up now as it's getting pretty late. My new years resolution?
To blog more often. Ha! X
In life, not everyone gets a second chance. If you are given a second chance- consider yourself abso-fucking-lutely lucky. Oh, and don't fuck up.

Love is.......
Just been randomly inspired to do this blog after spending 3 whole hours watching The Ultimate Hits Of The 00's. What can I say? The 00's were full of love songs which brought me to think of a friend who has just been through a horrible breakup. I've tried telling him that even though you love the person/ in love with the person, sometimes it doesn't necessary mean you have to have the person. For me, loving someone means seeing them happy from afar even if they're with someone else and that someone else isn't you.
Love is a funny thing. It comes and goes. Even if you have broken up with the person, the love doesn't stop just there. I know it's a cliche but it is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.
Sometimes I feel when I want something- I have to get it. I get super excited and sometimes cannot eat or sleep for days just from thinking about it. But when I am close to getting it- I step back and think will I be happy with it? I'd rather keep this feeling of having loved it at some point in my life rather than risking having it and not being happy. You always cherish what you have lost but by then, it's too late.
Love is patient. Instead of going out to find it, let it find you.
Things fall apart for better things to fall together.
It is hard to find someone you really love with your whole heart. Love knows no boundaries. I think I'd like to have someone who loves me more than I love him. I have found that person.
The past couple of weeks have made me realize that I cannot lose him. I think sometimes when I spend too much time on my own, I start to have crazy thoughts on thinking how things won't work out and I'm not going to lie- my heart has swayed. But it's all for the wrong reasons. I don't want to lose what I have- what I have is too special to lose. I think, as they say, communication is key.
I'm a very out there kind of person and I chat a lot- random stuff- life stuff. And I would need someone who can catch up with my pace.
Everybody remembers their first love. I certainly remember mine. He was a cool kid. Not very chatty. Kind of reserved. But being around him made me feel 'at ease'. Things didn't work out between us as we were friends first- then it escalated to being more than just friends. It all happened too quick too soon. I, being young at that time, broke up with him. He was pretty hurt for a while but I'm sure he's over it now. After all these years, we remained friends. 'Good friends' as I like to call it. But in my heart, I, myself, will always remember the good (and the bad) times we had. Everyone changes- but memories will always remain untouched. I wish him nothing but happiness in the future.

I was so young back then, I could only see you
I didn’t need anything if we could be together
I didn’t need anything if we could be together
We fought a lot about things that weren’t a big deal
When I think about it, only laughter comes out
When I think about it, only laughter comes out
Sometimes I’m so curious about you, I could die
But there’s nothing I can do about it now
But there’s nothing I can do about it now
Sometimes I think of you and I miss you so much
But I will just bury it in as beautiful memories
But I will just bury it in as beautiful memories
First love, my unforgettable love
Why does it hurt so much? Am I the only one who remembers?
First love, I call out to you with this desperate voice
Until it can reach you, until always
Why does it hurt so much? Am I the only one who remembers?

Hello? Just saying that one word is hard so I can’t even call you
I’m sorry that I didn’t treat you better, I’m so sad over you
I can’t be held by you anymore, even in my dreams
Don’t ever hurt again and be happy, I will pray for you
I’m sorry that I didn’t treat you better, I’m so sad over you
I can’t be held by you anymore, even in my dreams
Don’t ever hurt again and be happy, I will pray for you
The past memories flicker before me, I can’t do anything
Why am I such a fool?
Why am I such a fool?
First love, my unforgettable love
Why does it hurt so much? Am I the only one who remembers?
First love, I call out to you with this desperate voice
Until it can reach you, until always
Why does it hurt so much? Am I the only one who remembers?
First love, I call out to you with this desperate voice
Until it can reach you, until always
I close my eyes in this moment, tears flow in this moment
Why am I so pathetic, still not over you?
Without a choice, I’ll pray for your happiness

Without a choice, I’ll pray for your happiness

Reminiscing On Younger Years~
As I was having dinner with mom, we were talking about when I was younger- which inspired me to write this post.
There is my Dad, Mom, big brother, me, my little brother and my little sister who is the youngest of the family.
Being the middle child wasn't really easy for me. Mainly because my 2 brothers got all the attention and my sister, being the youngest, also got attention.
We are all very close in age. It was like 4 peas in a pod. Although we all got along- we always wanted to kill each other. Always winded each other up and creating random games together.
We weren't in a well off family. My parents were hard working parents. My dad had his own takeaway in London and my mom did clothes making. We lived in a flat in London- Bembridge House. It was a 3 bedroom flat- I just remember it had a lot of stairs.
My dad was always in work and I remember after lunch, the four of us would queue up and say goodbye to him as he put on his shoes and his black leather jacket. My mom was a stay at home working mom. She had to look after us while she worked. To kill boredom, my siblings and I always made up random games to play. One time my big brother and I played Cooking Teddy bears. My mom came rushing down the stairs and told us off. I remember this incident because I burnt my finger on the hob.
Sometimes my mom would have to go to the takeaway to help out so my parents would bring us to my grandmother's house for her to babysit us. We would meet up with my 3 other cousins there and there would be chaos! My grandmother also worked at home doing clothes making. One time we were messing around and one time my grandmother stormed in and took the water gun we were playing with and snapped it in half! We were so afraid of her.
My dad wasn't a typical dad. We didn't have much of a relationship although he adored my little sister. He smoked, he drank, he gambled and he had other women outside. My parents always argued so we were well use to it growing up. Because of my dad's gambling problems, we were always moving around. I'd say we lived at 5 different places around London before we finally packed up all our things and moved to Ireland in 1995.
Living in Dublin, Ireland- was different. The schools were different. I also noticed there weren't many black people in my school whereas in London I had many different cultural friends.
We were very bold kids when we were younger. We'd bunk off school a lot and always sneak out of the house after bed time. We always physically beat each other up, bickered and argued. It was pretty pointless but I guess that's what siblings do.
My parents divorced when I was 17. It was very hard for us all. My dad moved out and the 4 of us stayed with mom. Mom was always unhappy but at least she had us. Since the divorce- the 4 of us stopped fighting and stopped arguing. We all got along. We'd have the odd tiff here and there but nothing serious.
Growing up was bittersweet. My mom depended on me a lot and I did everything for her.
Now my sister lives in Belfast with her fiance. My younger brother is away in Korea on holiday and my big brother is a chef at my aunt's takeaway.
Although we all lead different lives- when we get together its like younger days. I'm very grateful and thankful in this lifetime I have these 3 as my sibling.

Growing up was bittersweet. My mom depended on me a lot and I did everything for her.
Now my sister lives in Belfast with her fiance. My younger brother is away in Korea on holiday and my big brother is a chef at my aunt's takeaway.
Although we all lead different lives- when we get together its like younger days. I'm very grateful and thankful in this lifetime I have these 3 as my sibling.

Random Update
I'm very bad at blogging. It's one of those Love/Hate relationships I have with my blog. I remember I use to love blogging all the time- it was like a modern diary to me. But I do have an excuse. I haven't had my computer with me for a long long time but when I finally got it back, I just forgot about this! Too bad we can't really update our blogs on our phones. It would be so much easier.
So, I've just been back from my awesome trip to London. It was a fun weekend for me and I haven't drank so much in a week! I'm glad my friends and I had planned to go there and have a little gathering.
My braces were suppose to be due off in June but now my orthodontics is saying I will have to wear them for another while. But I guess the wait will be worth it although that was the main highlight of the year was to finally have my braces off!
I've left my job in March. Which was a bit of a bummer as I did enjoy working there. But if you're not happy at a job then get the hell out. It was the best decision I've ever made. I felt trapped and under appreciated for all the efforts I've put in, but hey, such is life. Not everyone is going to be pleased all the time.
I'm now working part time back at my previous employers and things are great. The girls and guys are great there and we all have a laugh. It's madness how much 2 years since I've been there has changed but yet everyone is still the same.
My little brother is going to Korea on Friday for 3 whole months. He's so lucky!
Anyway, I will end the blog with the awesome song I came across. I grew up listening to him and still reminisce on the fun times I had when I was living in London as a kid.

共你有過最美的邂逅
共你有過一些風雨憂愁
共你醉過痛過的最後
但我發覺想你不能沒有
在你每次抱怨的眼眸
像我永遠不懂給你溫柔
別再訴說我倆早已分手
像你教我傷心依然未夠
但你沒帶走 夢裡的所有
讓你走 為何讓你看不透
但求
你未淡忘 往日舊情
我願默然 帶著淚流
很想一生跟你走
就算
天邊海角 多少改變
一生只有 風中追究
不想孤單的逗留
但求
你未淡忘 往日舊情
我願默然 帶著淚流
很想一生跟你走
在我心中的你 思海的你
今生不可不能沒有
共你醉過痛過的最後
但我發覺想你不能沒有
在你每次抱怨的眼眸
像我永遠不懂給你溫柔
別再訴說我倆早已分手
像你教我傷心依然未夠
但你沒帶走 夢裡的所有
讓你走 為何讓你看不透
但求
你未淡忘 往日舊情
我願默然 帶著淚流
很想一生跟你走
就算
天邊海角 多少改變
一生只有 風中追究
不想孤單的逗留
但求
你未淡忘 往日舊情
我願默然 帶著淚流
很想一生跟你走
在我心中的你 思海的你
今生不可不能沒有

Gone Not Around Any Longer- Sistar19

Happy 2013!
Wishing everyone a Happy 2013 New Year!! <3
Some say the number 13 is a superstitious number and that it's bad luck but to me, 13 is a great number with great significant meaning to me.
Piano In The Dark- Brenda Russell
When I find myself watching the time
I never think about all the funny things you said
I feel like it's dead
Where is it leading me now
I turn around in the still of the room
Knowing this is when I'm gonna make my move
Can't wait any longer
And I'm feeling stronger but oh
Just as I walk through the door
I can feel your emotion
It's pullin' me back
Back to love you
I know I'm caught up in the middle
I cry just a little
When I think of letting go
Oh no, gave up on the riddle
I cry just a little
When he plays piano in the dark
He holds me close like a thief of the heart
He plays a melody
Born to tear me all apart
The silence is broken
And no words are spoken but oh
Just as I walk through the door
I can feel your emotion
It's pullin' me back
Back to love you
I know I'm caught up in the middle
I cry just a little
When I think of letting go
Oh no, gave up on the riddle
I cry just a little
When he plays piano in the dark
The silence is broken
And no words are spoken but oh
Just as I walk through the door
I can feel your emotion
It's pullin' me back
Back to love you
I know I'm caught up in the middle
I cry just a little
When I think of letting go
Oh no, gave up on the riddle
I cry just a little, oh i cry i cry
I know I'm caught up in the middle
I cry just a little
When I think of letting go
Oh no, gave up on the riddle
I cry just a little
When he plays piano in the dark

My Bad... My Very Bad.....
Omg I am so bad with blogging. It's been almost a year since my last blog! Oopsie!
Anyhow, my braces are doing fab. I really should have been taking pictures but due to lack of motivation and laziness, I completely forgot about my blog! Its been a year since I had my braces on and so far so good. The only time it hurts real bad is when I get them tightened and most recently had the elastics on and they were a pain for 2 days but all is well now. Will take pictures soon and show my progress :)

Baked Pork Chops Rice
This is one of my favourite dishes- it took a little longer to make (2hrs) as there were too many preparation but once done, its all worth it!

6 Tomatoes (chopped)
Ketchup
Worcestershire Sauce
Mirin (Chinese wine)
1/2 cup of Water

After 30 mins, add 1 egg to pork and mix well then cover pork in breadcrumbs.
Heat wok/ shallow frying pan and fry the pork for 10- 15mins or until golden (don't over cook as you will be putting this in oven to cook through).

Embrace The Braces! 6th Week.
Its only been 6 weeks and I can't believe how quickly time has flown! I've had the wires clipped 2 weeks ago as it was starting to dig into the sides of my cheek and it really hurt! I had small ulcers and they really hurt too! I couldn't eat anything sour or salty as it would just add more pain. I was suppose to rinse my mouth every night with salt water but I had to avoid it for few days as it would really hurt when I did so. There has been a big improvement and I can't wait to get my braces tightened in 3weeks time! I will definitely post some pictures up to show my progress..
Flossing has been a breeze and I'm much quicker at it now getting in and out of the wire with my dental floss. It's still very important for me to brush my teeth twice a day and after each meal as I hate having food stuck in my braces! At night after I brush with normal toothpaste I use whitening toothpaste and brush for a further one minute.
I love drinking tea and coffee so I don't want any tar build up. What I find frustrating the most is I usually love eating cookies with my tea but because the cookie is quite hard, I have to soften it with the tea.
The braces haven't hurt me since the first couple of days with it on. The odd time the two front teeth would get a little sensitive but other than that nothing major.
My little cousin is thinking of getting braces too for her top set as her bottom set are perfectly straight and I will be bringing her to my orthodontics tomorrow afternoon for a consultation. Oh I am so excited for her!
After: 6 weeks
Before: 1st week
Blog Update/ Keihl's Review
It's been an uber long time since I've last updated my blog. The main reason is beacause I have been too busy playing my iPhone games, Facebook games, DS and Wii.. Ahhh.. They are just too addictive!
Today's post will be a review post on Keihl's Ultra Face Cream and Keihl's Cucumber Facial Toner. I absolutely love these two products. I was first introduced to them from a friend's sister who works at Keihl's branch on Wicklow St, Dublin. I have been using Clinique's Moisturising Lotion and had wanted to try something different. The skin on my face is fairly normal/ dry in some places. I find the Clinique Moisturiser a bit too heavy and leaves my skin slightly oily.
The Keihl's Ultra Cream is very light and spreads very quickly and easily and didn't leave any residue or heaviness on my skin. I like the way its very light and very easy to work with!
Keihl's Cucumber Toner is very refreshing and the good thing about this is it's non alcohol. It cleans my face without stripping away natural oils. Its cooling and refreshing and I always apply Ultra Cream afterwards.
These two products are my must haves and I definitely would be getting more when I run out of it!
