Like ships in the night

Hi hi!

Guess who's trying to keep the positive spirit up in here?! I will blog about my happy days and the happy parts of my shitty days.

I bought my mom's early Mother's Day gift after school today. It's her first gift from me in a long long time. I thought at this rough point in our lives, it was really necessary to show her how much I appreciate her and all that she has done for this family. And I know these macarons are not much but it's something she has been wanting to try but couldn't bear the spend the money on.

Macarons from CanelĂ© Patisserie Chocolaterie



A few days ago, I did the #whatpubertydidtome thingamajigger and uploaded it on Instagram. 80% of the pictures in this collage are embarrassing but I am not ashamed of my past!! It was so hard trying to find pictures of my tween years on Facebook because I didn't have much self-confidence. I always thought I was too ugly, my teeth were too crooked, and always refused to take pictures with my friends. I had resorted to fishing out pictures from year books and class photos. I'm glad I do feel better about myself right now. A huge confidence booster was finally getting my teeth fixed. Although my teeth are now braced and ugly, I know they will straighten up in time to come. I now dare to smile!
