August Mini Haul

Hello everyone! So today I have a haul.

It consists of four items, three of them are dresses, one is a bag.



Firstly, I bought this Forever 21 Charcoal Grey Maxi Dress.

It is from a Carousell reseller. (What is Carousell? That would be another post then!) It is brand new with the Forever 21 tag.


Size: S

At first, I saw her state in her picture, "Size S". I was worried, but after asking her for the measurements, I could definitely fit. Forever 21 items always have a big cutting.

The dress has a little breast pocket at the side which is pretty cute. Plus, the dress has a slit on the side so it allows you to walk easily when worn.

I am 170 cm tall and the dress falls till my ankle. I am so glad it's the right fit. 


Second item that I bought was this beautiful leather sling bag.



It has three compartments and two ways to carry it. It's spacious plus it has a super modern design. Puts loads of stuff in it but still look cute. Kills two bird with one stone! 

The third item I bought was this dark blue button down dress.

I really like button down (or button up) items and I really like maxi dresses. So this is like a combination of two items I like. Which means, like + like = MAD LOVE.


It doesn't touch my ankles, however, it shows my shoes! (Yes I think I have a too positive mindset.)

Last but not least, a cute peter pan tribal collar dress.

It is from Love and Bravery. A online shop based in Singapore. It's too cute to resist buying!


At first, I thought I couldn't wear it so I was planning to sell it away or give it to a friend, but yesterday night, I tried it on. Oh my god IT FITSSSSSSS?!?!??!

So yes I am definitely keeping this. The material is chiffon so it's really smooth and FARKING COMFY OKAY.

The best thing I love about dresses is that when the wind blows, it's super cooling. If you're a girl and you like to wear dresses, you know what I mean. Especially those dresses that are really-knee-length and you don't have to wear any safety shorts in them, those are the best summer dresses. So chilling~

No this is not the end of the post yet!

I have something to share about.. It is this:


HOLY MOTHER OF GOD


TUMBLR STICKERS!!!!12@#$%!#$

I know, I know, you're excited. I am excited. Everyone is excited. I bought these stickers for only $5.

$5, guys, $5!! With free normal postage + certificate of postage!

If you go to *Scape often, like me, you'll probably see like booths selling Stickers at 5 for $10. But for these stickers, it's like 30 pieces for $5. Which is more worth it? I don't even need to type out the answer.

But there are obviously some cons for these tumblr stickers. The only con is: It is not waterproof.

Well yeah, if you're not planning to stick anywhere that is vulnerable to water, this is the perfect sticker for you. Or actually, you can tape these stickers and cut it out nicely and paste it on your laptop, that way, it won't get wet! Good idea huh! :-)

Hope you like my post. Not trying to brag or show off what I bought or anything.

Peace out. (I'm gonna put an OOTD here)

Throwback: I designed a t shirt for my old secondary school


It all started out with my friend, Jean, telling the head master that I was good in designing.

He approached me and asked me if I could design a t-shirt for Hougang Secondary. I agreed and after a week, the t-shirts were printed and distributed to every Express student in the school.

From then on, I see the shirts being worn in school and even outside school. It makes me happy.


Ahah! Just a picture of me and my very good friend (nah actually we got into a fight and all but idw to talk about it). We were at Sentosa I guess. I was in Secondary 3. The days were good back then. *sobs* Not like now, the polytechnic life.

Yeah. Peace out. Have a nice day ahead.

Penny Board Adventures (Not yet!)

Hi guys!

I wanted to buy a penny board since like forever? But when there was a sale at Cineleisure Boards & Stuff (a few weeks ago), I actually forgot my PIN number (lmfao slap my head).

So, when I got home, I went to the official Penny Board site and customized my own penny board, when I got to the check out page, Singapore is not in the 'country' tab. They don't ship to Singapore. -heartbreaks- 

And therefore, after thinking about whether is the customized one or pre-made one better, I finally decided, it's okay, I'll get the pre-made one.

Today, I went online to search "Penny Board Singapore". I found two stockists in Singapore.

One - Black and White Trading (official stockists! They are on the Penny website.)
Two - Qoo10

Black and White Trading sells the authentic Penny board: costs $175 and UP. Tons of good reviews are on Youtube and blogs. And it's been confirmed that the plastic WILL NOT BREAK even with a car rolling on it. (I was uber uber uber shocked when I saw so many videos of people doing that to their Penny board)

Qoo10 sells the cheaper version of it, well, from the photos, you know it's pretty hardcore copied. It costs: $32.90 and UP Same, tons and tons of good reviews on it.

I don't really skateboard. I cycle and roller-skate. But I wanna try and learn to skateboard.

I love trying new things.

My dream Penny board:


Costs: US$120 with free shipping but faaaark they don't ship to Singapore.

The Penny Board I have on mind:
Costs: SGD$120 (really worth it because they're having sales now)

Grip tapes I have on mind:

I want a contrasting colour to my Penny. The black one is obviously really matching but the tie dye one seems really really cool and trippy but I'm not sure whether it matches with the Penny I'm planning to get.





The grip tapes cost $15 each (omfg right I feel like getting a normal grip tape and cut it out myself)

--Update: The tie-dye grip tape isn't available anymore. So I think I'm getting a blue grip tape because I think orange and blue matches very well.--


I told my mother about buying it myself with my own money (Yes I saved up for it!) But she roaaaaared at me. Nah, I mean, she doesn't want me to waste my money. But, I have never skateboarded before. I mean, in life we should enjoy our time sometimes right? I told her the penny board is a very durable board and even fat people can ride on it, even cars can roll on it. She's still shaking her head in disapproval. Man. :-(

But, when I told her, I'll get it after my examinations, she said yes!

Oh. That's why she doesn't want me to get it...

Projects and projects

I am sorry if I offend anyone in this post. But, it is a fact that you will find out who are your true friends after a project. Some people only can be friends, not a team member.

Casio A178WA Gold

I purchased a second-hand Casio A178WA Gold watch for $30 after negotiating with the previous owner. It was actually selling at $35. The condition of the watch is actually still good, no scratches on the face of the watch, a few discoloration on the watch (you can't really prevent discoloration after wearing for long so yeah), and it still have a long battery life. In American Apparel's website, they were selling it at $78. So I think it's a pretty good deal.


If you guys didn't know, I had a list of resolutions for this year, and one of them was to get a Gold Casio watch. I'm so so so happy I could FINALLY check off that box.
