I don't encourage people to wear band tees without knowing what the band is, who is inside the band and which song from the band you listen to. Because wearing that band t-shirt could be a conversation starter. Someone may approach you and ask you about the band. If you have completely no idea who is the band on your t-shirt, it could be pretty embarrassing and at the same time, you're probably gonna be labelled as a 'poser' or 'trying to impress'.
This is just my thoughts.

Scape*'s Flea Market
SCAPE*
The Sky Terrace was filled with young girls. Girls who are selling and girls who are snatching, grabbing and buying. I was one of those girls who are snatching, grabbing and buying. --Labelled: Impulsive Shopper--
Any way, I was helping my friend (P.C.) to buy some items. She wanted this Motherfucker Singlet (originally from OM), and a pair of high waisted jeans. I got both of them for her from two different stores. She's really happy about it, and I'm happy.
After snatching for her items, I bought a pair of Lee's high waisted shorts and collected my tote bag from an online shop at the flea. The tote is just fucking ama-h-zing.
Comme Des F*** Down tote bag - $10
Lee High Waist Shorts (Vintage)
I am planning to bleach the shorts and then dye them. I'll also put like studs on them so it won't look that plain.
That's all that I bought today. The other two items are my friend's items, so I think I won't post up pictures on them.

I am so bored
Went to the nearest shopping mall to research on Ray-Ban Wayfarers. There were four spectacle shops there. The cheapest one was having a sale so, that's a bloody plus point. They were having this 20% discount. It was actually $244 (without lenses). Then after 20% discount, it lowered down till $195.20. But my lenses are gonna kill my wallet because I have a pretty high degree.
I saw 'inspired' versions of Ray-Bans at the fourth store and they were having this promotion. $188 for both frame and lenses. But if the degree of the lenses are too high then too bad you gotta top up.
My friend told me her frames only cost $22.90 and it was like an exact replica. But she's not telling me where she got them.
So please, tell me where to get cheap Ray-Ban inspired frames. I might like, buy the frames then go to some spectacle shop to ask them make the lenses for me.

This Christmas
In the MRT...
My dad and I were arguing whether we should go to the Harbourfront MRT or Marina Bay MRT so that we could reach Marina Bay Sands. Well, the dumb me went to convince my dad that it was nearer to the Harbourfront MRT. We sat on the MRT till the last station (Harbourfront). When we got off, I needed the restroom. I was hoping that we could get out of the MRT and I use the restroom. But no, my dad went to ask a security guard inside the train station about going to Marina Bay Sands. He told us that we should have alighted at Dhoby Ghaut and change to the circle line. *invisible hands starts slapping my face*
I can't go to the restroom. And now we have to go back to Dhoby Ghaut.
On the train, my dad told me that it was about to be dinner time and he's getting hungry. So, he wants to go to Dhoby Ghaut to eat first. Actually, in his mind, he wanted to go to Just Acia to eat. It's like, a mini buffet where you could scoop up thousands of ice-cream and refill your cup of coffee or tea like nobody's business. But, he forgot about the name and we went to Yoshinoya instead.
Plaza Singapura.
Well, this is the shopping mall on top of Dhoby Ghaut MRT. At the basement level, there were tons of food stores. And sometimes, there are stores giving out 'samples'. This time, there was a store selling barbeque chicken giving out small terayaki chicken balls to anyone that passes by. HOLY SHIT IT TASTES SO GOOD. It melts in my mouth like some kind of chocolate and the taste of the sauce stays in my mouth. Oh wow this is bloody heaven. But we didn't eat there, cause we planned to go to Yoshinoya.
Even veggies taste awesome when carnivores (me) get hungry.
After dinner, we went out of the shopping mall and went to find a bus stop instead. It seems that there were direct buses going to Marina Bay Sands! However, on the way to the bus stop, we were distracted by a massive Christmas tree outside the shopping mall. We took photos.
In the previous photo you could really see a lot of couples taking pictures together. Why are they celebrating Christmas alone with their boyfriend/girlfriend? Well I thought Christmas should be celebrated with all our family and friends?! Hmm, some kind of alteration made to the minds of youths now a days. (I'm sixteen and I prefer to go out with my mummy and daddy rather than a boyfriend I dated for two months. I mean if I date someone for two months.)
Marina Bay Sands.
My mom keeps on giving tantrums (just like a child) as it was slightly drizzling and she wanted to go home. I didn't want to go home. I just started this adventure! So we walked into The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands.
Holy shit the view of all the luxurious shops. I went into Juicy Couture and saw nothing I like. This weird? But when I went into some kind of rich-man shop, I liked the walking sticks with diamond skulls on it. Miu Miu was fucking awesome. I love their small wallets. But I haz no $$ to buy 'em.
Well, it was around 9pm when we started to be like, "Man I am so tired can we sit down near the fountain." and, "Can I go home now?" Yes. We went home.

Marina Bay Sands.
The night skyscrapers of Singapore.
There was so much noise in the picture I feel like I have to buy a night vision camera.
The boat on three buildings. What's the point of putting a boat there?
To save all the important people when there's a tsunami? *hits wood*

Christmas Eve
It's Christmas Eve!
Lastly, I just want a new watch. Maybe a gold vintage watch. One day, I'll hunt for it myself. What's on my mind is this...
A Casio Gold Watch. They're a pretty old brand. I like their calculators. I used them before. Pretty user-friendly. But I'd still stick with my Sharp.
I am getting really bored and my AA playlist has been running for hours. ASKING ALEXANDRIA ROCKS!!!! Ha ha, but I'm still bored. I think I'll watch a movie or something since it's Christmas Eve.
Okay bye.
I'm spending it with my family at home. We didn't make any plans on going to town or anything. I just had a really bloated dinner. It was the Hokkien kuay tiao. It costed $8. The bowl was pretty big. I couldn't finish it alone.
So, after all, I spent almost the whole day at home. What did I do? Well, I made a check-list of my wants and needs.
Firstly, my needs... I need a new pair of spectacles. My current spectacles are still in good condition, but I already used it since December 2010. I was 14. Now, I'm 16 and next year (in a few days) I'll turn 17. I'm considering if I should get Ray-Bans. I really want their Wayfarers. *knocks head on table* But I have to wait till I get my pay. *bangs head again* And I'm paying them myself. *immediately faints*
The frame would already cost bombs. Adding the optical lenses... it'll probably add up to SGD $500+. I'll probably get a look-a-like.
Secondly, my wants! I want a Black Moleskine Sketchbook (Large) and more clothes. I never buy clothes when I was young. My mom does all that shit. I'm more into technology and computers and shit. I was a tomboy last time. I hated shopping. But hey, I changed! NOW I FUCKING LOVE SHOPPING. I dress girly nowadays... skirts... dresses... But the tomboy inside me never changed. I'm pretty rough with things. Watch out ha ha.

Review: Black Suede Creepers
What arrived at my house?
This is my first review. And it's about the dopest shit I wanted for a real real long time. I feel like my life has been fulfilled. I'm going to review about creepers. I bought them from an online shop. They are the "inspired" version of T.U.K's Black Suede Mondo Creeper.
Different point of views
Front
Bottom
When worn bare footed (lol I will never do that when I go out, cute socks are NEEDED)
Erh mah gawd my fucking babies.
This pair of creepers are a size 39. (big feet) I always wear 39/40. (big feet alert) 40 because sometimes the 'cutting' of the shoes may be small. But when I wear these creepers, it feels comfy. There's a one-finger space left in front of my toe (even with socks on).
True to size? Yes (i suppose so)
The material is really really soft. But since it is a pair of suede shoes, a lot of care is needed. So you people may have to go down to the nearest locksmith/shoe shop to get a Suede Protector. In Singapore, it costs less than $20. I went to Bata (buy and throw away lmfao) to get mine. Always spray it before you head out to down town, because when it rains, the droplets create another shade of black on your creepers. And stains are easily removed if the protector was sprayed on.
Another thing you may wanna know about creepers is that, it has a flat-sole, so walking on them for hours is gonna hurt you like hugging a cactus hurt. And, the soles are really hard, so it's difficult to bend. So you may have some problems picking up your feet while walking. (walks like penguin) But, you'll get used to it.
You may ask, how tall are the soles? Well these pair of creepers have a 1 7/8 inches sole. So when I wear it, I'd look like a giant (I'm 170 centimetres tall).
When you wear them, where are the parts of the feet that hurt? The last toe of my feet and the back of my ankle. So, put plasters there! Plus, to take precaution, WEAR THE THICKEST SOCK IN YOUR HOUSE.
You have to 'break in' the shoes before it feels like you're wearing a pair of sneakers.
How to break into a new pair of stiff creepers? Wear it and walk around your house randomly for hours. If you're living in a private house, walk up the stairs. Run in your backyard. Sit down in front of your computer with the shoes on.
It worked for my old Dr. Martens. So I guess it should work for this creepcreeps as well.
Lastly, there is no such thing as a fake creeper. Creepers are all creepers. Same thing to "There is no such thing as a fake sneaker." Some creepers may be cheaper than others. This is because of the quality of the shoe. Why are Dr Martens so expensive? Because the manufacturers fucking SEW the soles onto the shoe and the soles are bloody qualityyyyyyyyy. Plus, the leather is genuine.

Daily wake up call
I lost more than I gained this year.
There are more strangers around me.
Work
There was a few interesting people I met today. There was a designer, a University professor and a British.
I conducted a survey with all three of them. At the end of each survey, their response was different. Very different.
The Designer
Black long sleeved shirt, black pants and black shoes. Do they usually go for a simple look? I asked for his occupation and age, which was the last question. He told me, "Well Singapore have really nice and good officers, and even a nice questionnaire lady!" Well, he meant me. Then he said, "Are you a model?"
Wow. I remember that my mind was just blank. White. Blank.
I was in my black military blazer and black jeans and yellow crocs flats (haha). Me? A MODEL?
"No..."
"Oh, cause you're pretty tall!"
"Thanks... Well um, thanks for your time and have a nice flight!"
"Thank you too!"
It was pretty awkward. He ran off with his luggage after that.
The University Professor (with his family)
Dressed in a grey tuxedo and black spectacles and accompanied by his wife and son. We ended the survey after 5 minutes and he had a big smile on his face.
"Do you need my e-mail?" He offered.
"Well, if you want to give it..." I stammered (the usual me).
He took the survey form and wrote down his details. I thought that was the end, until he GAVE ME HIS NAME CARD? His wife and son was smiling at me when I took it. "It's a pretty thick name card," I thought.
After they left, I took a closer look into the name card. It was actually folded. It listed all his positions in different associations and universities and churches. My impression, "WOW." But, when I read the names of the universities, I was like, "Where is this place?"
My geography probably suck ass.
The Brit
A 30-plus-year-old-man with a dark-skin tone, left me speechless.
"Thank you for your time!" Those words are literally my daily ending-this-conversation lines.
I was about to turn back and make some notes on his feedbacks. Then he said this, "You may need to improve your English."
"Pardon?"
"Your English." Then he made this thumbs down.
"Um. Okay." I looked calm outside. But inside my mind, I'm stabbing his head with 100 knifes and his eyes are popped out. I'm pretty sadistic. So he ruined my mood for around 1 hour, until my friend texted me with her daily jokes.
I'm like, speechless. My English? Did he meant my slang? I do have a kwerky kwerky weird slang. It's a mixture of the Aussies & Dutch & Portugese slang. I don't know. When he said that I felt like my ego just dropped a 100 floors down to hell.

Oakham Market Haul
Today is 15th of December.
At 11.30am, I went to the post office to mail out one of my customers' item. We were trading by postage. I can't wait to receive her Leopard Crop Top and I think she can't wait to receive my Black Dreamcatcher Necklace either. (This sounds so blogshoppish)
Time flew. I sat on the MRT and listened to Skrillex's mixes while waiting to get to Somerset... YES I WENT TO SCAPE TODAY. I saw familiar faces -- customers lololol. But I didn't say hi because I'm afraid it was the wrong person. Didn't get anything there even though Wanderclothes' flea was there.
Two reasons:
1. So many girls crowding there waiting for them to restock.
2. The items I wanted are gone. *_* Actually they were there when I was there, but on the arms of another girl... waiting to pay... *stabs my own heart*
So I proceeded to go to OAKHAM MARKET...!
