Help Identifying my bonsai was created by trslukep

I need help identifying my bonsai. I believe it is a Boxwood or a Fukien Tea bonsai. I am pretty confused because there are small white flowers on the tree and the Boxwood doesn't have flowers, but the Fukien Tea does. The leaves look more similar to the Boxwood but their are some rare leaves that look like the Fukien Tea. Help!

box woods have flowers, but they're yellow, sometimes green, i don't know, they might come in white also, but they have flowers.

Whatever it is, it looks like a good start. You may learn to grow a bonsai with this, might sort of need better soil, some time soon, but it will grow in that. Just that, potting soil holds too much moister for most trees, and it adds to the complications.
