A brand new year, a brand new start.

Hey strawbie pies I'm back (:
Hope you guys had a fun time during the countdown this year!!

I went to RWS SEA aquarium on 31st dec 2012 and the place is HUGE.
It took us 4-5 hours to complete the exhibition & the aquarium itself. Excluding the typhoon exhibition.
Overall, it was worth it (: But the food there are pretty costly & I suggest you guys to bring your own lunchboxes or buy some snacks from vivocity. Each ticket comes with a SGD5 voucher as well to be spent in the SEA cafe. But a subway sandwich there already costs close to SGD10, so yup (: You can prolly get a ice cream (SGD4) there or brownie (SGD5) I guess, if you want to stay within your voucher budget.




I was so amazed by the moving tentacles of the sea urchin hahaha! The tentacles look like tiny mushrooms squirming around. & I didn't know it can move it's black spikes :o & the prettiest tank there is the one filled with bright neon coloured fishes! Mad pretty!



There's also the usual pool where you can feel the starfishes and snails (: Hahaha throughout the whole journey I kept telling my bf that they look tasty LOL. Especially the groupers, lobsters and spider crabs!!

Tickets are sold at SGD20, and for adults at SGD29 (: Pretty worth it!! & What's new year without new year resolutions?!

*****

New Year Resolutions:

  1. Eat healthy (zero fried food / no skipping meals)
  2. Workout at least once - twice a week
  3. Eat faster: devour a full meal in less than a hour 
  4. Study hard and study smart 
  5. Do filings regularly 
  6. Save $$$$ 
  7. Spend more time with my family & pups 
  8. Splurge less on restaurants & handcrafted coffees
  9. Stop spoiling / losing items just to get new ones
  10. Love myself & the people around me more
  11. Be contented & cherish whatever I have
  12. Stop judging and push people away
  13. And lastly, LAST LONG with babycheeks (:

Year 2012 had been a ride full of ups and downs for me. It definitely wasn't easy for me, and I believe any of us here. I had met new people in my life, made new friends (as well as lost some), gained new experiences & most importantly, realized how important it is to be happy & be with someone who would do anything just to see you smile. All these that we are going through right now, be it studying, working or partying on every weekend, the ultimate goal of all these is to make us happy. What's the point of having all that you ever wanted when you're not the least happy at all??? What's the point of being happy alone when you have noone to share your happiness with???

So remember to face everyday and challenges in your life with a smile in this new year 2013, and share the happiness with all those around you!! Luv you all and have a great year ahead :D

Mandom Clearance Sale Hauls

Hey guys I'm back!

So apparently wordpress crashed on me and I couldn't post a single shit. Seriously gosh. So I created an entire new blog only to realise that I can't shift back to my url even after I tried shifting my original blog to make space for this :( Sucks big time!

Back to topic. I went to Mandom' clearance sale at Great World City afew days back and bought a couple of items :) If you guys are following me on my Ig, you should've seen my haul already haha so follow me!!

Anyway, they were selling mainly Japanese brand cosmetics and hair products at really DIRT CHEAP PRICES. Everything was going off at $2-$5!!! Except for Dollywink items which were going off at $8 and lashes at only $12. It's a damn good steal compared to Watsons retail price at $24.90 for the lashes. Everything basically looks free to me there LOL. So I grab multiples of various items and it amounted to $127! And I swear I was already holding back and took only what I needed lol. Went to sort out my items and bill became $67 instead. I'm so proud of myself :)

So these are my hauls, though I regretted not buying more :(


 

I bought both shades, light orche and orche. It was highly recommended by my friend and so I bought to try since I needed a new BB cream :)

Fairydrops Candy Bar BB cream - $5 each.
Retail Price - $39.90 each.


 





 
Dollywink Eyelash Fix - $8
Retail Price - $16.90

Dollywink Eyebrow Pencil (Chocolate Brown) - $8
Retail Price - $16.90

Personally a great fan of Dollywink Eyelash Fix, best eyelash fix I had ever came across! Got the Eyebrow Pencil to try since I already have eyebrow mascara and powder :)






Dollywink 14 and 13 - $12 each.
Retail Price - $24.90

Duh, this is a must get! They have the prettiest lashes and softest lash bone & fibre. Only 12, 13 & 14 available though :(







Makemania Eyes Flasher BB - $5
Retail Price - $24.90

D.U.P Eyelashes Fixer EX - Not sure, free?



 




Lucido-l Designing Pot (Bouncy Curls) - $2
Retail Price - Around $5?

Gatsby Natural Hair Water - $2
Retail Price - $9.20

Just bought these to go with my tongs for curly hair days. Also bought Gatsby Bubble Hair Dye (Latte Brown) for $5, Retail Price - $15? Don't really like bubble dyes because the colour is usually not very obvious but bought it since it was cheap :)

And that's all! Regret not grabbing lipgloss but that's enough cosmetic haul for the day. Will be updating on EOY 2012 soon. Stay tune!!
