God save the queen

In one of my previous posts i mentioned my friend Robyn would be having high tea at the Oyster Box Hotel for Sweet 16. 
One word = W O W
The food was amazing. we all ate sooooooo much, it is actually ridiculous. When we went and got food and when we got back to our seat the waiter would pull out our chairs and as we sat they pushed it back in, then he gently placed our serviette on our lap. I felt like Royalty. I had three different pots of tea: Vanilla, Earl Grey and Green Tea. We could even order any fruit juices that we wanted to.
Thank you Robyn for making all of us feel like Princesses when it was actually your birthday

Love song of the week

Love song of the week

Home by Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic zeros

It is the cutest and catchiest song in the world. I bet not one person will not L O V E this song


LYRICS:
Alabama Arkansas I do Love my Ma and Pa
Not the way that I do Love you

Holy Moly Me oh My your the apple of my eye
Girl I've never loved one like you

Man o Man your my best friend I scream it to the nothingness
there ain't nothing that I need

Hot and Heavy pumpkin pie
Chocolate candy Jesus Christ
Ain't nothing please me more than you

[Chorus:]
Home, Let me come Home
Home is Whenever I'm with you
Home, yes I am Home
Home is wherever I'm with you

Lalalala Take me Home
Mama I'm Coming Home

I follow you into the park, through the jungle through the dark
Girl I've never loved one like you

Moats and boats and Waterfalls, Alleyways and payphone calls
I been everywhere with you (that's true)

Laugh until we think we'll die, barefoot on a summer night
never could be sweeter than with you

And in the streets you run afree,
Like it's only you and me,
Geeze, you're something to see.

[Chorus]

Lalalala take me home
Mama I'm Coming Home

‒ Jade?
‒ Alexander?
‒ Do you remember that day you fell outta my window?
‒ I sure do ‒ you came jumping right out after me.
‒ Well, you fell on the concrete, nearly broke you ass, you were bleeding all over the place, I rushed you out to the hospital, you remember that?
‒ Yes, I do.
‒ Well there's something I never told you about that night
‒ What didn't you tell me?
‒ Well, while you were sitting in the back seat smoking a cigarette you thought was gonna be your last, I was falling deep, deep in love with you, and I never told you till just now!

[Chorus]

Home, let me come home, home is wherever I'm with you
Home, yes I am Home home is whenever I'm with you!

Alabama Arkansas I do love my Ma and Pa
Yes Home, yes ward! home is whenever I'm with you!
Home is whenever I'm with you.

Nothing really matters when we are dancing...

It was Jen's sweet sixteen dinner, what fun it was...
All the girls rocked up at her house and took a partybus/taxi to NewsCafe at theee Village. Yours truly made the CD, it was just Skrillex. Gosh I love it. We had dinner and then a group of us played a friendly game of Spin The Bottle. Oh my... It was a night that certainly proved that we don't need alcohol to have fun because it was honestly so much fun.



we went to Wakkaberry Yoghurt bar as well...

Love song of the week

Last night whilst listening to music i realized there is so many great love song that just go unnoticed so i came up with the idea LOVE SONG OF THE WEEK


Write+me+a+love+song_traveling+journeyer_large

Falling in love at the coffee shop by Landon Pigg

You might recognize him as the love interest of Ellen Page in Whip It.


one of the cutest music videos i have seen in a long time <3

LYRICS:

I think that possibly
Maybe I've fallen for you
Yes there's a chance
That I've fallen quite hard over you

I've seen the paths that your eyes wander down
I wanna come too-

I think that possibly
Maybe I've fallen for you

No one understands me
Quite like you do
Through all of the shadowy corners of me

I never knew just what it was
About the same coffee shop I love so much
All of the while I never knew-

I never knew just what it was
About this old coffee shop I love so much
All of the while I never knew-

I think that possibly
Maybe I've fallen for you
Yes, there's a chance
That I've fallen quite hard over you

I've seen the waters that make your eyes shine
Now I'm shining too-

Because, oh because
I've fallen quite hard over you

If I didn't know you, I'd rather not know
If I couldn't have you, I'd rather be alone

I never knew just what it was
About the same coffee shop I love so much
All of the while I never knew-

I never knew just what it was
About this old coffee shop I love so much
All of the while I never knew-

All of the while
All of the while, it was you

I have a soul

This is for all those kids out there who have ever been bullied because of their hair...

I have been teased throughout my entire life about my hair colour, the same hair colour that has earned me the most compliments i have ever gotten. 
It is causing me whiplash. is ginger hair that bad? i certainly do not think so! it is beautiful.
we can take jokes but saying we don't have souls or create a kick a ginger day is just plain heartless.
i was on this event called hug a ginger day and a jerk actually commented that he wont hug a ginger because he will the get AIDS, first of all if you are stupid enough to think you will get AIDS from hugging then you are an idiot but to say that is just mean!
we are human, we not teasing you all day, why do that to us?


second of all, why call us ginger? the Ginger colour is not even close to the colour of our hair. i mean seriously are you blind?


Red hair is so beautiful and unique, why bully people into changing their hair? in the Netherlands there is a day actually celebrating red hair, they accept it. someday i hope the whole world can be like them. (especially those kids that bullied me two years ago about it). some of the most beautiful celebrities have red hair like Christopher Drew and Emma Stone who isn't even a natural redhead!


EMBRACE THE INDIVIDUALITY OF OTHERS <3
