Mini surprise

Time flies in a blink of eyes. Me and Samantha's little precious Shuyi turns legally 18 on 31st July. In my eyes, Shuyi will always be that little 12 years old girl who trimmed her hair as thin as possible looking like an ahlian (hahaha oops) no matter how old she is. I hope she's blessed to have us and a loving boyfriend who doted her like a princess. Totally have no worries to hand our little Shuyi over to his hands for him to take care of some day. We've eyes to see how he treated our princess for the past 3 years they've been together. We're are all expecting for that day to come and ready to give her our biggest and warmest blessing :)

So after school, went woodlands to pass my PL170 Samsung camera to a really pretty and friendly buyer. Hope she likes the camera, just like how much I love it when I got it in the first place but because humans are never satisfied, I eventually wanted something better aftermath. Overall that camera is good, likewise for my current camera too! Hehe. Was looking around and totally lost of what to get for my little princess Shuyi. Was looking around and suddenly remembered that She needed a nude-coloured lipstick. In fact she wanted it long ago yet unable to get a preferred colour of hers and others she tried either look too dull on her or the colour just isn't up to her expectation. Was looking through different range of nude colour lipsticks and finally manage to get one as based on her style from Estee Lauder (a little tinge of pink and nude, making her lips to have the nude-feel yet at the same time doesn't look like some sick patient because it's nude hahaha). I know my Shuyi too well already, hence gotta get her something that is practical with frequent usage. HAHA. 

Was planning like some bimbos with Samantha to give her a surprise (I was surprised by the both of them on my birthday this year and I totally can't control my tears because I was so damn touched). Together with her boyfriend because for sure, our Shuyi will never expect that Liuqing will come together with us and surprise her! 


Don't mind the cake, we got it baked. 




Surprised and contented little girl. 
Manage to trick and wake her up from her dream once it's past 12. But this trick is kinda outdated because I've used it on Samantha's birthday this year to give her a surprise after 12 as well HAHA. Ok time to plan for new tricks. 


Gonna try out some baking skill. 


The meant-to-be couple 
Faster get married la, together so long alr. ROM first then buy house then pop one little god-son or god-daughter out let me and Samantha play. 



8 years of friendship.
We're the powerpuff girls okay! 
(Besides, our character actually resembles each individual 3 and Powerpuff girls was my favourite childhood show hahaha) 

Once again, gonna wish my dearest Shuyi a great 18th Birthday. Hope you'll enjoy yourself in Zoukout and have a blast for your birthday celebration at Chevrons! I love you baby girl! Ok me and Sammy love you. Ok me and Sammy and Liuqing love you. Ok me and Sammy and Liuqing and my Mom loves you! I believe there's more but I'm not close with them, sorry ah! HAHAHHA 
I LOVE YOU LA my baobei yiyi.

Samsung MV900F

Finally got my hands on this flip screen Samsung MV900F camera!
I'll rate this 9/10 overall. It's definitely a great camera for girls who loves to camwhore like me and furthermore there's apps to edit your picture, adding more colours or edit rightaway from your camera. Furthermore there's wifi which hence you can upload it to your Facebook or email to your account to blog later (directly download pictures from email, save the hassle to find usb cable or remove SD memory card). 
The only last point i didn't give it to make it a perfect 10/10 is because pictures that are captured using those beauty apps shows the tendency of being inverted/opposite. Resulting a different angle captured instead which is pretty devastating and annoying though. However in overall, this camera is really good, fun and easy to use. I got this brand new sealed with box with memory card for only $300 from a really friendly buyer in Carousell app and I'm totally in love with this new baby of mine right now. Saw the price tag, retailing for less than $499.90. Available in white and PINK as well. 


Took some pictures with this camera while playing around with its functions and here's some of the result (will be uploading more with tons of effects when I'm out with this new camera soon!)


(Horizontal self shot. Image appears to be a little blurry because le boy was driving. However despite the shake, the picture turns out to be pretty fine still though)

Went Pastamania (craving satisfied for my cream base cheesy crumble with bacon fusili pasta) with le boy earlier on for dinner at Cineleisure. Here's some images taken without any single effect at all 



Great 16.3 megapixel.

Ok a random picture to end this short post for this camera. Will do a post soon with all the great effects of this camera. No effect were used on the picture below. Just merely camwhoring with the flip screen to catch a better angle haha. 




With love,

Typical Singaporean vs online shopping.

Feeling real exasperated right now which that lead me back to blogging. And seriously, standing in the position as a BUYER and SELLER myself, I feel ashamed being a Singaporeans at times.
Well for the Hello Kitty saga, most people should know how exaggerating Singaporean goes for that small black hello kitty plushie that claims to be limited edition by McDonald. I AM A HELLO KITTY FAN MYSELF. But I know how crazy the queue is gonna be like because NON-HELLO KITTY LOVERS who only cares about MONEY will queue for HOURS, wasting their time and energy or even to the extent of finding troubles with the management by not cooperating, only to earn that pathetically few hundred bucks for the Hello Kitty. After I see people selling black kitties everywhere on Facebook, I eventually got irritated by the black kitty and lost all interest for it. 
It looks kinda creepy though. A black cat. Chinese superstitions claim that black cats is an unlucky animal. 
Yeah, really unlucky to cause all the hu-ha over it. 

Honestly speaking, 10 years ago the couple Hello kitty was in similar situation. People bought 10 over sets of meals and throw it to the bin to just get that couple Hello kitty. People were bidding it at ridiculous prices for it. 
But 10 years later, it was found in a thrift store for freaking $5 per set of 2. 

It's all about the freaking trend dude. 

So now the Hello kitty saga has died down, shall get to MAIN TOPIC instead.

TYPICAL SINGAPOREANS VS ONLINE SHOPPING. 
2 words to describe = 'title drop'. 
Doesn't apply to all but to the typical ones.



A great app for buying and selling and finding absolute great deals for sure. Friendly and helpful admins behind the computer as well. Love their management and how categorization of items.

Singaporeans, please. Save some face for yourself. Negotiating for stuffs is understandable, especially for online shopping because there is no rental fee unlike retail or companies such as Zara or Dorothy Perkins which you can only get cheaper deals during the time of SALES period. 
Recently I got pretty addicted to a phone app called CAROUSELL (available in Android too) which is like a 'venue' whereby people get to sell their items from accessories, clothes to household appliances and many more. Cheapskate (admitting I am but I'm NOT typical please) people like me who goes to flea markets to keep a look out for cheap clothes totally LOVE this app. I get to sell and buy at the same time. Best thing about this app is that people can make 'AN OFFER'. Example: I'm listing a dress for $15. A buyer offer $12. 'Ok' as I thought it's reasonable enough, I accept the offer and let her know the payment details aftermath. 
But......
I've met tons of people offering (example) $5 for item priced at $14 etc. C'mon, honestly speaking....



If so gian peng, go dig from rubbish dump. It's FREE.

Let's state an example of standing in two different positions as a buyer and a seller. 
A seller would probably do clearance sale by listing perhaps a Samsung phone protector for $2. 
Buyer see such a cheap price, find it no need to fork out and waste the $2 hence ask for TRADES instead. C'mon, it's only $2. Maybe people want to clear their stuffs to make space ley? Then what for trade with your stuff and continue wasting their space? There must be a reason why people do clearance sales.
And clearly for me, because I'd rather sell 100 clothes away for cheapo price of $3-4 each (grab bag) and with that pathetically sum of money earned, to buy 20 pieces of apparels. I earn and at the same time, I get to save more space. Apart from that, buyer get to receive new buys online as well. Win-win situation. 

01. AskingForTheObvious-type:
Yes, emphasizing on grab bag especially. WHAT THE HECK IS GRAB BAG WHEN BUYER INSISTED OF LOOKING AT THE ITEMS BEFORE PURCHASING AND THEN REALIZED CANNOT VIEW, THEN DROP THE OFFER OR GOES MIA. Hello? Like you saw the word 'GRAB BAG' RIGHT IN THE FIRST PLACE and then decided to click it in while expect the most stupidest thing? If grab bag are meant to be seen, it'll be called 'HOLY-BUNDLE-BAG' instead. Bullshit. 

People purchase grab bag because it's CHEAP as everything comes in a bundle and loves the excitement of surprise whereby to receive random grab bag parcel end of the day. 

Definition: Grab bag
n
1. a collection of miscellaneous things
2. a bag or other container from which gifts are drawn at random

YES, the keyword is RANDOM.


02. 'AskedManyQuestionsAndGoesMia' type. Yes this type. 
Such people either a) Asked tons of questions and gather information while portraying the interest of purchasing ended up goes MIA or b) Try to negotiate for the price and then suddenly the 'feel' gone and drop the deal/be a fucker and goes MIA or c) Asked for more information so can keep a look out on different sellers and get the best deal of all. Hence example, asking 3 but only 1 of the 3 will close the deal with the buyer. 
Part (c) is reasonable to be exact. But please, show your responsibility as the part of a buyer. Don't portray 100% interest upon purchase with ALL 3 sellers unless you wanna purchase from ALL 3 sellers lah. 
SAME logic what. Imagining 3 guys trying to jio a girl, the girl can only pick 1 out of the 3. If the girl treat all 3 equally, this girl is pretty fuckedup by giving false hope to all 3 guys (ok probably just 2 because she will be with one of the 3 end of the day if let's say). 

Elaborating it further to seller vs seller. 
Typical Singaporeans gets jealous easily. So when your particular item gets popular with diff questions asked or comments from buyers,  here comes the jealous seller trying all ways to pull you down while at the same time trying to 'promote' themselves while offending other sellers. I've met TWO today and it's really ridiculous and amusing to the extent whereby they've really got nothing else to reply to my response aftermath though HA HA.

Ok seriously, you're a seller and I'm a seller. Let's say we are selling the same item. There's pros and cons for yours and mine if we do a comparison for both of our identical item together. 
I don't go to people's listing and claim: "Why you sell your PS3 for $400 for 500gb with ONLY two pathetic controllers and some 2nd hand games? I'm selling with lower gb BUT with much more expensive freebies and it's only $350 for the whole set" right on your listing whereby all your interested customers sees it. Because that's immoral dude and I don't do that.
(Unless you're selling some hand drawn and failed paper charms for $1 and I'll be commenting like, "what is this for?" as being honestly speaking I really don't get it why would people buy a piece of failed drawn paper for $1). 

Sellers SHOULD help sellers as possible. Like if let's say, I saw an electronic good selling cheaper at retail due to promotion, yet a seller try to sell his/her's at higher price because he/she got it an non-promotional price and is unaware of the promotion, I'll inform he/she through private message so he or she can decide whether to drop the sale or adjust the price him/herself. Have some morals please.

03. NegoTillTheyHappy type
This kind of people, I've got no tolerance towards them AT ALL to be honest. 
Especially on those IRRESPONSIBLE ones asking for the sky yet drop the deal because things can't go 80% cheaper from what they sell which is already more than 50% cheaper than retail. So you're asking for 130% off? Get a life dude spare a thought for the seller. 
Recently, I've purchased a Samsung MV900F flip screen camera from a friendly seller in Carousell. She stated, $300 and non-nego because it's brand new and sealed in box. I made an offer of $300, and try my luck by asking for the best price she can offer (obviously trying to nego a little just ONCE). And she rightaway told me $280 for fast deal. As compared to retail, I'm gaining a little I supposed as I did some research and asked a retail and they quote me $399 with SD card. 
So I asked whether her's include an SD card. Sadly she said no. However, she do have one brand new with price tag of $28.90. So i asked her if were to get together with the camera, how much would be it altogether? She then stated $300 for everything. Well, still cheaper than retail. In the end, I confirmed the deal with $300 + Micro SD card and make a request for her to unseal and charge the camera for me so that I can check whether the camera is in working condition as I meet her up for collection and payment. Having doubts that she won't agree to my request because she might also have doubts whether I will back out last minute or not (all seller have that minimal doubts to most 'confirmed' deals before payments made). Thankfully she gave me a benefit of doubt and charged the camera for me. And now I'm really excited to collect it from her later in the evening at the price of $300. 

One thing about buyers, I do understand that we will try our luck to negotiate to a price whereby we're totally gaining our benefits to the fullest. Expecting that seller will be lenient and try to accommodate to your price. However, the most important thing is that Don't Push The Limit. People who made offer at ridiculous price which i won't usually entertain them. Because MY items is already at crazily cheap price (for those above $10, i got it at $25-50 at least), so I'll have the mindset, why should I let go my item at YOUR given ridiculous price. I'd rather give my friend or some great friend will purchase from me at cheaper price which so at least when my friend wears it i still can see it or at times still can borrow from them once for awhile if I need it again. Make sense? 
If you really want it, be generous and not negotiate. 


04. Sellers' problem
As I've tons of encounters with different types of sellers (even scammers lol), one thing I'm MOST concern of is the postage fees. Well I know most seller will think 'hey, I'm selling my items so cheaply to you so why am I paying for your postage fees?' Ok if you have this mindset, unless you're a housewife and are able to go according to your customer's schedules, if not, why be so stingy over the $1 - $2.55 postage fees then? 
It saves the hassle and travelling fees and most importantly, save your time! I'm always providing free normal postage because I won't want to waste my time to plan meet ups with different buyers at different venues and only get like < $20 cash extra in my wallet. Unless with items more than $100, it's understandable that buyers would like to check the condition and goods before handling you the funds, then that's totally acceptable. I've opted for items like $14 for a top and I made an offer of $14 mailed (example). Yet buyers insisted of $15 mailed $15 mailed (additional $1 for postage) blah blah blah. So in the end, I freaking canceled the offer. I was thinking, well, since you are so stingy over the $1 than the $14, then forget it. Even I love the item a lot, and having the budget of $20 for it, yet because of the service and persistent on the WRONG thing, then FORGET IT. Inflexibility make losses unless to customer who doesn't do research lol. Sellers may think that they are not obligated to pay for your mailing charges. But remember one thing, buyers  has got no obligation to by from YOU as well :) Is either he or she find other sellers OR buy something similar. AIYA JUST BE FLEXIBLE LA!

05. Buyers' problem 
Buyers' problems are usually simple and sometimes annoying. MIA, go back on their words/back out. 
Ok, buyers DO HAVE THEIR RIGHTS TO BACK OUT. But never ever and don't even try to be a hardcore idiot to back out during the VERY LAST MIN. Because sellers may have rejected better offers because of YOU. Remember, everything ought to be a balance. Fair and square. Don't compare prices using ideas like Online VS Online. Compare prices with Online VS Retail instead. You'll then realized it's totally worth it as well as not making a fool out of yourself by negotiating and ask for a ridiculous price. 


Lastly, always remember to shop and sell wisely. Don't try to 'Fight' customers with other sellers. Because people have a pair of eyes to see and how other sellers AND buyers think of you in another way instead? Be a responsible buyer and shop with the thinking of Online VS Retail. And always remember, sell with flexibility. 

Happy shopping all! 

with love,
Vanny Goh.

Obsessed with Camo

For me, I love anything that is in Camo prints, faux leather and Studs.
So basically for my camo collections, I've got:
  • Jackets
  • Studded Jacket
  • Blouse 
  • Tanktop
  • Dress 
  • Shorts 
Well, still not enough for me. Ordered a camo phone casing yet realised its for iPhone 5 after I've made the payments -__- No choice, gotta sell it away once it arrives, sigh. 










Definitely there's more camo stuffs but lazy to dig it all out hahahha. 
For faux leather, it's already so expensive to get a pair of leather pants/shorts, let alone dresses etc. So far, I've only got a leather jacket and skirt only ); 


Guess those sweet floral or chiffon apparels is really a BIG no-no for me. Got a feeling that I was a guy in my previous life. 

Alright, just here sharing my preference and some shots of mine taken few hours back. 
And yes, I'm wearing RED contact lens!


Good bye :D

Incident with Carousell

Recently, I was really angry with one of a buyer+seller on Carousell that 'blacklisted' me on something that we both party have misunderstanding and at fault. She demanded on something being unfair to my stand and as I decline her request, she blacklisted me right away in spite of my explanations. Sometimes, I wonder if customers have misused the definition of this sentence: "customer is always right".

I shall not further elaborate the whole story (as part of my weakness, I'm someone who can actually be real sensitive and petty about such matter) to prevent myself feeling angst about it again.

Pulling the story to the last part:
I sent her 3 long messages to explain us as a seller's stand and point of view. Yet there wasn't any replies and I ASSUME that she understood my point.

Ended up, I was browsing through Carousell app one day and then I saw the 'blacklist' list. Exasperated, I replied via comment under the list she posted up, explaining the side of my story and not having others to only believe her side of the story. As a great supporter of Carousell, I emailed the admin and leave this case under defamatory. 

Note: She's selling non-authentic goods and I may actually use that to fight back which I did not (only if I'm cunning enough).

Furthermore, there's this fellow out of nowhere probably to gain some retarded attention, telling stories that happened in his or her dream before. Claiming that he or she deal with me before and the same incident happened (wtf, she/he can be some fucking fictional novelist I swear), and then MAIL BE BACK THE ITEM. This is an absolute joke. I've NEVER EVER deal with this fellow before. So how he/she mail me 'BACK' the item? Furthermore, I've only received ITEMS from Online shopping sites and Carousell Sellers ONLY.
NO REFUND OR WHATEVER BULLSHIT PARCEL before this girl incident.



Censored the girl name and that fellow who MALIGN/ACCUSE+DEFAME me. I'm just too kind. But don't push the limit further.

And Carousell is really very efficient with their service. They replied my email within just a day! :D



However, before I explain the details and screen shot down the evidence, THAT seller eventually private chat with me to resolve this matter in an amiable way instead. Agreeing to that (I CAN actually be the one who BLACKLIST her AT FIRST for being demanding and unreasonable with her request and not standing under a seller's shoes and think and spare a thought for us).





Okay la, for the sake of curiosity, I'll summarize the whole incident up.
There was once where there was a 'SALES-PERIOD', having buyer to transfer the money to be by 10pm that night, there will be FREE postage + mailing out the next day before 12pm. Hence, majority of the buyers eventually received their items right on the next following day! THIS girl, is one of them.

Girl claim: Photo misleading, item defected (checked again after the refunds and I truly wonder where is the bloody hole. Probably I'm 'blind' instead), request for a REFUND.

Me claim: Listed 2 pictures, 2nd picture (the real pic of the item) for reference and expecting customers to clear their doubts (WHO CAN'T SEE THE DIFF of the TWO pics?! -_-). 1st picture may be misleading to admit but that's how the length etc supposed to be. Apologised to Girl for not checking the 'defected' good and kindly request any item mailed to her with free mailing instead of refund (very leychey, I don't know how to remove payee from the horrible amount of payees from my transfer list in ibanking! HAHA)

Girl claim: Insisted on the faults of the item and started to DEMAND for a refund. (By the way, the item only cost $8. Can't even get a plate of half dozen escargots in Jack's place please).

Main thing is not about the $8 here. It's me making my trip down to my nearest ATM to get the freaking $8 transferred. It's an hassle. 

Me claim: Explained the situation again and again and again.

Girl claim: INSISTED her way still for the bloody $8.

Me claim: Continue to explain, hope she understand the overall point.

Girl claim: CLAIM NOTHING LA DEY. WENT MIA. SO CLEVER.



Next up, I saw my blacklist post. WHAT IS WRONG WITH HER.

My intention here:
If this girl spot anything that make up to $8, then I'll mail it to her for absolutely FREE. That 'defected' good (again, I spot no defects. I'm going to the optician shop tomorrow), she can just keep it or bloody hell sew it with threads and needle or jolly well throw it away.


Anyway, the post is removed not long later she private message/chat with me after I told her that I'll leave this to the admin.

I even read the WHOLE terms and conditions of Carousell for this matter. Ensuring my rights.

Please people, be a responsible and understanding seller and buyer. If you are as fussy as some bimbo, then go get your ass down to ZARA, FOREVER21, A&F, EDITOR'S MARKET for your buy. Don't come to online FLEA market for cheap deals.

Till now, I still think the 'blacklist' thing is crazily idiotic. For a $8 trying to defame me? Doubt you're aware that that you are actually risking yourself for paying a few times more for lawsuits then.

MY definition for BLACKLIST: 

A seller, scam money from multiple person and had actually scammed quite a big sum of money (eg: $500 onward please, that at least sounds more reasonable though) and STILL scamming people's money around.
Eg: the forum spree incident where a woman name 'Pauline Ong' scammed $53,000 from 230 buyers. 

OR

A buyer, who always wanna meet up with sellers, then goes MIA during last minute when seller has arrived at the supposed meet-up venue. Multiple incidents happened between other sellers as well.


By the way, I'll usually get to see all these nonsensical 'blacklist' thingy on Facebook or Blog shops and seldom to nearly none on livejournal or any websites that has their OWN domain. Furthermore, Carousell is not an Online Shopping website or a shop itself or whatever. Just a reminder, It's a VENUE. A convenient and beneficial venue to buy and sell cheap stuffs and earn some cash. NOT your own BLOG SHOP.



PS; I'm still supporting Carousell as ever and has recently purchased 5-8 apparels on Carousell this month ^.^ And yep, still spreading around to people about this APP which is now available in Android already!!! :D

Overpopulated Singapore...

I just got to know the news of The White Paper of bringing in more foreigners in Singapore by the year 2030 through the news few days back...Increasing the population in Singapore to 6.9 million people...

Singapore is my homeland. I have always been supporting Singapore for the past 18 years and hence seeing this matter really importantly. Recently, me and my 2 ladies were having our routine chit-chats and unknowingly getting ourselves into this subject. And now, I am getting really worried of our situation as we grow up as an adult after the age of 21.

To be frank, we are still young and still studying studiously as a student. One trying her best to pass her 'O' level through MDIS this year after regretted quitting school at the age of 15. One has been trying her best and has always been hardworking towards her studies is now trying to pass her Diploma in Republic Polytechnic. As me, I sincerely regretted not putting in effort during my Secondary School days and has finally woke up to my senses, has managed to pass my Diploma through private school (Kaplan) and now taking my Degree under Murdoch University in Perth. Because we all know Singapore is a competitive city. Just like how our relatives and parents said: "In Singapore, no cert, you're nothing."

I am thankful for this beautiful vibrant city, beautiful country. Even thankful for the effort our most amiable PM Lee has put in to make our living environment a much better place. Having Singapore a stable and secured place to live in. I've always heard people complaining such as:

"Walao, this increase, that increase, WHY MY SALARY NO INCREASE?!" 
or 
"Everything also fine, everything also need to pay. Singapore is a 'fine' city indeed".


Even through my assignment essay, I have never ever discourage anyone or neither agree to any of the above. 

Firstly, because Singapore's economic is strong. We are financially stabled as compared to other countries around us. Apart from that, simply look at our rapid increase of GDP rate ($239.7 Billion US dollars as at google search in year 2011) and look at our HDI (Human Development Index), we're ranked 7th among the WHOLE Asia and Oceania. 
Yes, I am very proud of the establishment in Singapore. All along I am proud of Singapore, be it with the safety, the benefits for its people, and how united Singaporean is. 


But why.. 

Singaporean is protesting now.. what happened to our beautiful city..



5000 citizens were upset, disappointed, worried, angry, agitated and maybe impulsive (to even put up a protest) turned up for the protest in against with the government's white paper on population Speaker's corner. And all these 5000 citizens does not represent those who did not turn up either (example: me and my 2 closest best friends). 

We are worried instead of angry. 



Taking the train during peak hours has become a hassle. I am thankful that many routes has been implemented for our convenience and many still working on it (explaining so many roads under constructions etc), and thankful that the highway towards Stevens road was being expanded/widen so that to ensure a smoother traffic during peak hours.
 But with the huge amount of new population coming in to fight seats in the MRT with us poor Singaporeans after school during peak hour, having inconsiderate china woman speaking loudly on the phone, or got pushed by them hardly when the train is already crowded enough, having them to drive during peak hours... now we're afraid of having MORE china people (not trying to condemn or stereotype, but as based on the numerous experiences and what I've saw since I was 13 till now in SIngapore) to speak loudly on the phone in the train / bus. Having more china ladies to push us hardly when it's squeezy in the public transport. I actually don't blame them. I have been to china for numerous times as well. This is their culture because the population there is huge and in order to 'protect' themselves, they have to act this way. I was acting THAT way when I was in china as well. But please don't forget, once they are in Singapore, that's a different case. Not everyone is used to that culture. 
As for widening the lanes on highway, if more foreigners are coming to Singapore in year 2030, it will not make a difference anymore. The highway is still going to be congested with cars of the foreigners together with us poor Singaporeans during peak hours or probably be worst than what we see now in later years to come.


Will we get to see foreigners snatching more of our jobs? 
Does that means we gotta study TRIPLE hard now in order to protect ourselves in our own country from 'invasion' of foreigners to snatch our jobs? 
Can we have a public transport that is ONLY available for Pure Singaporean Citizens (born in SG)? 
As the increase of foreign talents, now working at 'GONG CHA' (bubble tea shop) already need minimum 'O'/'A' level cert. Next time work retail sell clothes, will the minimum requirement for a sales girl be Diploma cert? 
Will we get to see 'N'/'O' level graduated adults working illegal jobs which there may be an increase of crime rates?

Due to many parents over-doting their child nowadays in Singapore, will their child grow up and able to accept and handle all these stress? Will they hence get to know the bad company in order to have 'fun' everyday which resulting in neglecting their studies and an increase of crime rates instead? 

Will more china bus driver work for SMRT? I've witnessed for myself a few china bus drivers being either very rude to passengers or extremely 'bo chup' (hack care). 

Will there be more Bangladesh workers staring at us girls and smirk at us whenever we dress prettily with make up etc? 


Felt so insecure just by thinking of it....


What will Singapore look like in another 10 years time is going to be beyond our imagination. 

As Singapore students study hard for their future now, will they migrate to other countries to work for their economics in future instead of squeezing in this overpopulated Singapore to work for Singapore's instead? 

For me, If I pass my Degree and knowing Singapore is so going to be overpopulated, I won't be working in Singapore. Singapore is my HOMELAND. At this point, I know I am selfish. Why am I sharing my homeland, my job, my space with foreigners? They have their homeland isn't it? Don't they love their country? Won't they miss their homeland? I understand if they were out of choice (eg: overpopulated China). But for us now Singapore, it's a decision, it's a choice. I want to work for Singapore, I want to repay to this society as well. I want to... 


I have signed the petition here. I just hope by year 2030 when I'm still in Singapore, I will still know how to acknowledge myself as a Singaporean and not being confused and lost with all the foreigners around me... 

This are just my thoughts and feelings as a 100% local Singaporean.

Out with brobro

Well, here updating an expired post!
Met up with bro early for shopping and our tattoo appointment! Went cineleisure for our lunch before heading to H&M for SOME SHIOKNESS OVERWHELMING SHOPPING SPREE! HAHAHA



Outfit of the day!



Met up with brobro around early noon time. The sun at that moment, I swear it's terrible. 





After our filling lunch, went to SHOPPPPPPPPP at H&M next! I'm his personal shopper of the day (I'M SO KINDHEARTED THAT I DIDN'T CHARGE HIM A SINGLE CENT OKAY HAHAHAH!) 


Brobro looks damn gay while carrying the shopping bag though :/ 
However, girls are fragile too.. so... yeah :p 

So as bro was queuing for fitting room, I've walked around the men's section for at least 20 rounds. Making sure things goes AFFORDABLE CHEAP and not missing any single GREAT DEALS.
OMG I'M SO PROUD OF MYSELF T.T


Picked smart casual for brobro's cny outfit. 
Having a thin sweater overlaying above a light blue formal collared long sleeve (white may look too contrast if put together with the sweater), together with a pair of dark khaki/brown colored pants that matches well with the above navy blue sweater (the main overall). 

Together with a pair of dark denim brown shoe lace shoes (not shown in pic), 
$190 for 4 men's items. 

I swear I can get something cheaper and fashionable like the above picked from H&M at BUGIS village as well lor. *kiasu aunty* 



Got this leopard prints oversize top/dress. 
Found this precious from the Men's section for $39.90 only. 
Just love the big and oversized effect of it! 

Got a Maroon red tanktop for $7.90 and a female blazer in Fuchsia for $39.90 only! 
Overall spending for myself at H&M = 3 items: $87.70! 

Not the cheapest deal ever, but definitely worth the price that I've paid for. 


As we stepped out of H&M, it's a little too late for us to realize that it's raining. So, we dashed across to 313 (locating beside H&M only by the way fml) and went to Charlie Brown Cafe! First visit after passing by numerous times! However, not really recommended though. Overpriced for the quality of food and their dessert is too sweet (for me). 








 Despite the sweet dessert, they don't serve plain WATER :( 
What baloney is that. Thankfully I've brought along mine. 

Went over to Orchard Plaza to get the back of my neck inked. 
Jack has moved from China Town to Orchard Plaza for his Tattoo business. The studio now is more spacious and comfortable! He's still so friendly and kind as always. So glad to see him again. Guess there'll be another session coming up in completion of my thigh with him soon!


Previously, in a hurry of traffic conjunction, probably because bro has long legs than I do. Unknowing that I don't know how to cross the traffic (actually, I meant by afraid to), he walked in front of me instead. BLOODY HIM. So as a punishment, he gotta wear my headband and take a retarded picture of him.


He can't smile properly with his teeth one leh. 







Spent 10 hours with Jack and left his place around 2am. All thanks to bro's new ink please. 


Just can't stop giggling at how epic bro look in that picture above. 


Ending with a sweet smile. 
For the abandoned angel, for strength. 


Infinity strength.
