FINALS FINALS FINALS WEEK
22 November (Tuesday) 
Had my 2nd and 3rd finals paper on this day wtf NIGHTMARE
Untitled
taken on our way to astronomy finals (badbadbadbadbad) with YuQian and Alex!!!! The 3 of us are in the same classes for 4 out of 5 modules this semester so we see each other quite a lot actually HAHA

23 November (Wednesday) 
STUDYING FOR MY LAST FINALS!!!!!!!!!!!! which was Soci la hahahahh it's an elective that I have SU-ed LOLOL
Untitled
SUing a subject means that instead of getting a letter grade, u change the grading to a pass/fail for that subject. Usually u do this when u're unconfident of the module and u don't want it to affect ur gpa.... so u can see how bad soci was for me that I'm SUing it lol. I get to do this SU thing to 4 modules total throughout my 4 years in uni SO VERY PRECIOUS OK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Soci better be worth my SU walao

but I still studied la ok
I even read the whole bloody textbook leh!!!! got effort one

Untitled
Shitty photo of me la but pic with my Soci friends, A & V!!!!!!!!!

Soci is DEFINITELY NOT a subject for me because it is abstract af and I am probably still stuck in Piaget's concrete operational stage lolol. But I admit it was an eye-opening module la. This was HS1002: Singapore Society in Transition, so even though it's under Sociology, it's more about Singapore itself rather than actual sociology theories. I keep complaining about this module LOL but actually some of the things they teach is quite interesting. E.g. how there is this whole "idealized" family structure that the SG government wants everyone to follow and has subtlely ingrained this whole concept into our minds etc etc. But 10/10 would not do again HAHAHAHA

Anyway A and V are actually taking Sociology as their major HAHAHA I'm just the outsider Psych kid who's taking it as an elective outside of Psychology. Isaac, my buddy from hall also takes Soci but he left before this pic. Tho it's okay la cause I can still see him all the time wtf

Shopee Haul 4

Monday, November 21, 2016
i am hopeless lololol i keep buying shit - but at least it is cheap shit πŸ˜…πŸ˜…πŸ˜…πŸ˜… (sidenote: blogger has emojis now?!!?!?!??!) 

Shopee: 
UntitledUntitled
L: Jeju Island Wet Tissues 80 Sheets - $1.11 (U.P. $4.10), from remus1208 
Because you can never have too many wet wipes in hall!!!!

R: Olive Shaped Makeup Blender - $1 (U.P. $2.99)from makeup.international 
Shipping for this took slightly longer than the others, and the sponge has some very faint yellow marks on it????? it doesn't really bother me but just to take note of lor LOL. That aside, the sponge is quite soft but I haven't used it yet  

UntitledUntitled
Majolica Majorca Mascara & Eyeliner - $1.90 (U.P. $4.90), from belovedbeauty 
teeny weeny trial-sized eyeliner and mascara that I bought cause itchy hand lol

UntitledUntitled
L: MeNow Kissproof Lipstick - $7.88 (U.P. $10)from lisyanurelyana  
I was initially very skeptical to buy this despite seeing it multiple times on Shopee because it's so cheap???? what if my lips rot lololol but then Mav's sister, Mavis has them and she said it was good. There were also a lot of vvvv positive blog/YouTube reviews so I figured it should be safe la LOL.

The only stressful thing was that the online swatches were all so varied and different 😞 I had difficulty choosing the colours I wanted but in the end I settled for: 6, 9, 12, 16, 15 (according to picture). The seller is vv friendly too, and she shipped this out the next day so I received it super early.

Verdict: I REALLY LIKE IT!!!!!!!!!!! Even the quality is way better than my cheap lipsticks from ELF and Wet&Wild????? I am defo going to venture more into the world of dubious looking cheap makeup from China HAHAHAHAHA. I found the liquid lipsticks from this MeNow brand on Taobao and it's even cheaper wtf only $.80!!!! Plus there are a lot of online reviews about it as well so we'll see how it goes hehehe

R: Simple Micellar Cleansing Water - FOC 
I saw an ad on Facebook for a free Simple product to sample so I just signed up lololol #aunty. And to my surprise I got this huge FULL-SIZED bottle???????? thx u Simple for being so generous :')

Innisfree No-Sebum Mineral Powder - $4.90 (U.P. $7), from kbeautybox  
I finally hit pan on my translucent setting powder (from Essence) so I caved in and bought this highly raved one from Innisfree to try!!! I'm still figuring out how to use it cause it's so unintuitive compared to Essence's one WTF but so far, it's decent??

L.A. Girl Pro Concealer - $1.90 (U.P. $6), from mybeautyseduction 
Haven't opened this yet because I still have a lot of makeup products to go through and I don't want this to expire LOLOL. But it's so cheap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

UntitledUntitled
L: Dettol 50ml Original Hand Sanitizer - $2 (U.P. $5.90), from onemart 
Also never too many hand sanitizers for hall because that place be dusty 

R: Customized Keychain - $1.49 (U.P. $4), from charm_mali_charm 
Keychain I got for my dad who works overseas so he is always reminded of us 😚😚😚 LOL. Anyway it was super cheap and very woth it!!!! Except I had difficulty finding a good family photo to use for the circular frame lol so my parents got cut off HAHAHA oops 

UntitledUntitled
L: iPhone 6 Floral Case - $2, from aerostaticus 
I wouldn't normally have bought covers for >$1 because I can find them for cheaper on Taobao, but I got this just so I could hit $10 to use a $5 off coupon LOL

R: Mini Sling Tote (Grey) - $2.90 (U.P. $8.90), from jumpingaround 
Have recently taken a liking to smaller bags AND THIS IS SO CUTE!!!!

L: Mavis gave me these (+ 2 lipsticks & 2 mascaras) because she had extras/didn't want them wtf LOLOL SO I TAKE LOR 😁 I have tried the Clinique foundation already and it's super nice and natural-looking tho????????? πŸ˜’πŸ’“

R: Another sample from a Facebook ad I saw LOLOL. It's super tiny like the size of my pinky but it is a sample after all hahaha. Heard gr9 things about this and it was free!!!!!!!!!!!!!
