the way you love me: 
Untitled
(^ i love that brain freeze face)

⠂always asking me if I want water the moment I reach your home 
⠂texting me every opportunity you get in camp: even if it means just saying "ok back for awhile" "gtg now bye love you" in a span of 2 minutes 
⠂complimenting me on my makeup still even though you always say you like me without 
⠂focusing all your attention on me during the weekends when I'm over instead of playing computer games - only doing so when I insist you play while I nap/after I leave 
⠂making sure the fan is faced towards me all the time, even when I'm sleeping on your bed alone and you're at the computer desk sweating profusely
⠂not watching John Wick even though you really wanted to because you remember action movies make me nauseous
⠂also remembering other little things like how I like eating rice entirely drenched in soup (despite ur poor memory) 
⠂for saying "of course" when I thank you for things and making me feel like u r rly committed 
⠂always getting me a piece of gummy worm or chocolate whenever you get one for yourself 
⠂showing me videos on Facebook that make you happy (& squeal) 
⠂putting the blanket over me because I get cold easily but am always too lazy to do so 
⠂making it a point to always stand/sit on my right and apologizing when you momentarily forget (tho u rly dont have to) because that's just one of my weird quirks
⠂for squeezing my hand/rubbing your thumb on mine (our not-so-secret sign for "I love you" πŸ™Š) whenever we hold hands... even when I'm upset and petty and don't reciprocate haha
⠂always giving me a forehead kiss before you leave the room
⠂asking me "sorry, is this too loud?" when you watch a YouTube video 
⠂for your telegram sticker spams every night w/o fail 
⠂the way you (we) say "I love you so so so so much" instead of just "I love you" 
⠂offering me the first bite of your charsiew rice even if you are starving
⠂letting me rant on and on about mundane things with all the very  unnecessary details while STILL listening and STILL being able to respond appropriately (a feat considering the fact that I can talk about one thing for like 3 full text paragraphs) 
⠂for your encouragement and enthusiam and support in all the little and big things I do 
⠂for telling me straight up when I'm wrong and what I should do to make me a better person instead of giving into me all the time 
15 days till you're back from last army overseas trip in Thailand
40 days till your ORD parade
68 days till official ORD

it's going to be over soon?????????

iPhone photos 135 - HALL XV PRODUCTIONS: THE FIFTH (BUMP-IN & SHOWDAY)

Friday, March 10, 2017
"One two three four five / any less and you survive 
Six seven eight nine ten / then the Limbo wins again” 

Imagine a world where dealing with grief is a five-step process. Rare clients go back and forth between steps to try and understand their pain and learn more about themselves. However, for those who refuse to try, there are dire consequences.

Kayla lives alone with her mother, Florence, and together, they experience the daily stresses of school and work life. However, in a single rainy morning, their world is tipped upside down. Luke, Dashy, Ninja, Mr. Bossy and Psyche proceed to make use of their combined specialities to break down grief into denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance. As the stakes get higher, can they prevent another tragedy and help their client move to the fifth stage?

Taobao Try-On Haul 13

Sunday, March 5, 2017
Probably my most exciting Taobao haul yet because I got some good quality stuff ridiculously cheap??? I posted my haul & the prices on Instastory and like 6 people immediately messaged me to ask where I bought them from HAHAHAHA
.
.
.
Ok so first things first: 
I bought most of these clothes for $1(yes) to $4 from this particular store, which I described to others as a Taobao "Outlet Store". By that I mean they sell DIRT CHEAP clothes of decent - gr9999 quality, but only at limited sizes/quantities (sometimes even 1-2 pieces). I'm not going to provide links because most of these are already sold out LOL. With these type of stores (there are a lot floating around), you really have to be check back for new arrivals constantly and quickly check out your items ASAP.

Another thing to note is that not all the clothes they sell are nice la and usually 85%-95% of the clothes are NOT my style. Hence you really have to sieve through the entire store listing just to find a few good pieces. I just got lucky this time round and managed to find quite a bit, but it's not always the case.

No links... but I will post prices just to show off my finds la HAHAHA (¥5 = approx SGD1)
UntitledUntitled
L: ¥5.94 - omg this suffocates my chest and makes my boobs look flatter than it actually is LOL
R: ¥4.95 - I think the tag on this shirt said Forever 21 hahaha but regardless of brand, it's such a cute shirt and only SGD1 wtf!!! Cheaper than my usual weekly round of laundry ($2) in school wtf T_T

UntitledUntitled
L&R: ¥6.93 - sOoOoOo comfy!!!! The material is very thin but in a good, breathable way... although it kinda tore and has a small hole now after I washed it once LOL

UntitledUntitled
Velvet Top - ¥22, ε‘兢色, Size M (link here
This is my fault la cause I really don't check measurements*, but PTP is a bit too big, and I shouldn't have sized up because I think it's a naturally oversized shirt already LOL.

*I have the impression that the Taobao shops I frequent (i.e. cheap & wholesale) never has accurate measurements so I never bother checking LOL. Partly also because I'm lucky in the sense that I'm quite petite and can generally rely on Taobao Size S w/o measuring la. I usually only check waist measurements for bottoms and I steer clear away from jeans because my calves can NEVER FIT!!!!! Even when they say it's stretchy, I am very doubttful unless I see actual reviews by other users LOL. (what a long post note about measurements)

Black Halter Bralette - ¥15, Size S (link here
Erm I won't wear this bralette out like that la, but this was the most appropriate shirt I could show it in hahaha. Bralettes have been the trend on Dayre & Shopee so I also want to join (w/ my cheap taobao bralettes) HAHA. But it's seriously damn bloody comfy wtf?????????????? I want more despite knowing that I'm going to get very little use out of it LOL.

Sidenote I also got this very obiang looking safety pants from the same shop (here) but it's RIDICULOUSLY comfy can??? wtf

UntitledUntitled
L&R:¥9.90 - This is a bodysuit thing but the crotch area isn't the most comfortable LOL. Also gotta wear them silicon pasties w/ this so it's not the most practical top... but I love the cutting?? LOL

UntitledUntitled
L&R: Oversized Velvet Shirt - ¥20.99, Free Size (link here
Can't really tell here but the fabric around thecollar is a bit... weird. There are also a lot of loose threads when I first got the shirt, but it's decent for the price and the material feels quite nice.

Sidenote: the shop I bought this from is my favourite Taobao shop (xiaozhainv), and this is probably my 4th time ordering from them!!!

UntitledUntitled
L&R:¥15.84 

UntitledUntitled
L&R:¥16.83 - inside is fuzzy fuzzy one it's so soft!!!

UntitledUntitled
L&R:¥13.86 - Met Mav in this dress and he said "this is the most proper I've seen you since we started dating" HAHAHAHAHAHA. It's really not my style la but it's quite apt for semi-formal events or days where u gotta be prim & proper (e.g. going to your friend's church event and your grandfather's birthday dinner afterwards like I did haha)
