Manicure + UFO catcher + Work

Saturday
Tired but still dragged myself out for class.

Tried my new grishkho pointe shoes in class. 
The box is really damn hard and it's painful to do releves. But somehow, it doesn't feel as hard as my bloch ones. Hmmmm.

After class, I followed Jas and YM back to Tampines to have lunch then to fish farm at Pasir ris area. Jas wanted to buy guppies. LOL.


Jas and YM, choosing the guppies.


YM was feeding this fish and it's really scary! HAHA.

Spent my time cleaning and packing my room since I have got nothing to do.

Saw 2 boxes with the things from the days I spent with Momo and sleepyhead.
Reading the cards really brings back the memories. So many things have happened throughout these 2 years...

Some people are meant to be a 'guest' in my life; They come and go without staying for long.

I realised I've been crying alot because of the 4 person; J, sleepyhead, Bb and even the one who appears shortest time in my life, D.

I must say that I'm grateful to have met all of them and I didn't regret.
Because of meeting them at the different points of time, I've learned and realised many things.

Of course, Fate is always playing a cruel joke on me.
Oh well, that's life.

At night, I waited for Bb to come home, picked Yang and we went to Drink and Darts to meet Ambrose and Joan. We played for awhile before heading to Pub Magician.

Sunday
Warm weather. Hate it.
Had brunch then headed to class with Jasmine.

The class was really insane because we did lots of oversplits in class. My muscles almost died after doing all these things. LOL.

I went back home and waited for Bb to come back. We went to Bugis+ to meet Felicia after she finished her work.

While waiting for her, both Bb and I were trying to play the UFO catcher to catch the gloomy bear for my sister.


We were aiming for this.


And thinking if should get the black one.


Caught it!


The cute gloomy bear.

After that, I saw this super cute hello kitty and I wanted it. So Bb tried his very best and caught it for me ((:


Hello Kitty wearing USA hat.

I was looking for the Hello Kitty in Elmo outfit but apparently, it's out of stock for now. Sigh~

Fel joined us halfway and the way she called the guy who was working there, it's damn funny. 帅哥~ LOLOL.

We went to Dartssoul to have dinner, play darts for awhile and head to other place to find Prize Station.

Initially, we went to the one at Tiong Bahru Plaza but apparently, it has closed down. No choice, we went to the 24 hours outlet at SCAPE.

Playing there is really very expensive because they don't have the 'put 5 coins and get one free play'. In addition, each game costs $1.50.

I finally found the Hello Kitty which I want and I saw other cute Hello Kitty too! LOL.

Bb still managed to catch it for me after many tries.


My new hello kitty!


Kitty POWER ! ((:

Thanks Bb for getting those for me ♥

Monday
Met Sheena and Felicia to go for a casting.
After some negotiation, we decided to work for Sitex but I'll only be working for 2 days. 

We went to town to have late lunch and then went to many luxury boutique to shop.

Both Sheena and I wanted to buy the same Prada wallet but different colour.
But really, not worth to buy it in Singapore, same goes to LV speedy. 

The price difference is just so big if you compare to pricing in Paris or even USA, you will really think twice about spending it. 

Went to YSL and saw the arty ring. They are just soooooo pretty.
However, YSL keeps on increasing the price! from last year's $280 to this year's $390, to now $400.



YSL Arty Ring

Either way, I'll still buy it when my birthday is coming. HAHA. 

Shopping with the girls is really fun. We just have to do this again!

After shopping, I went to Pub Magician for my league. I was late though. Played 1 match and I didn't play well.

James and Aldric came over to pick both Erwin and I to go to Boss bar. Finally settled the things for the upcoming Dartslive league.

After playing for awhile, Bb and I went back home.


The 2 masks which Sheena got it for me in Korea back months ago. 


My new VS body lotion (:


The 2 masks' tubs.

Yesterday
My muscles were aching like mad.

Prepared for work at AFTC. Went out later than what I have planned because Bb's mummy made me drink some soup. HAHA.


Makeup and hair for the day. 


Outfit for the day. 

Worked with Felicia and Jesslyn.
Work was fine. It was for some post-Deevapali celebration.

It's nice to see my 'sistar' Rayson to be back in Singapore (:

Today
Prepared to go for my manicure session then to work.


Outfit for the day.


Makeup for the day.

I was late for my manicure session, all thanks to the circle line. 
For some reason, I'll always need to wait 6 minutes when I'm taking train from Buona Vista to Dhoby Ghaut direction. Zzzzzz.

After I was done with my nails, I rushed to Yishun to meet Atiqah and Felicia to work at CPC.
Apparently, it's for another post-Deepavali celebration.

There was a girl who worked there but she really seems kinda of anti-social towards us. Hmmmm.

Anyway, it's really nice to see my friends from SBAB to be there at the event. They always make my day better when working at CPC. Haha.


Nails for November / December

Ok, that's all for now. Tomorrow gotta work for Sitex.

Busy

Lunch with dear + buying skincare + Laneige issues .


My shopping bag xD


The skin care products that i have bought today .


The best selling Skin food Aloe Vera Cleansing Foam .


The lettuce and Cucumber Toner .


The samples , Lettuce and Cucumber Essence and Rice Wash off mask .

This afteroon , i met dear outside the school and we went to AMK hub for lunch . Surprisingly , i ate 2 burgers . I was too hungry at that time . hahas .

After that , we went around the place . We intend to buy a pair of rings , again . Dear lost his ring , so no choice . hahahah . He will feel guilty when he read what i have wrote here . LOL .

We decided to buy it on our 1st year anniversary xD

We went to skin food , since it's just beside couples lab . I went there to shop for my cleanser and toner .

Actually , i wanted to buy a wash off mask . It's much more worth it than those peel off mask , though i really love the cooling effect of the mask after taking them out from fridge to use .

I wanted to buy the black sugar wash off mask . However , the grain is considered big and may not be suitable for my sensitive + dry skin . Too bad , they don't have the sample . Nevermind , i shall try the sample , which is actually a holy grail awardee .

Of course , i wanna try the aloe vera BB cream too . BB cream is good xD

Still , i took the other sample . If it's good , i shall buy it . I will do a review on the skin food products after i have tried them out . That's all for the products .

Ever wonder why i buy skin food product instead of laneige ?

I was wondering about the effects of the laneige products . Many have said that it's good since Asian products suit our skin , unlike European products like Chanel etc .

As i have sensitive and dry skin , there are certain products that i can't used . Till now , i don't know what ingredient i am allergic to . To be safe and to save money , i got to look for products review .

However , this is what i get: source from http://www.yebber.com/review/laneige-3/
"I was introduced to laneige after seeing some online craze about its water bank series. furthermore, the prices are much cheaper than the original products i was using and thus i switched my stuff to laneige.

i used it for several weeks when one of my friend who worked as a pharmacist saw my products and told me that the ingredients used are very harmful to skin. some of them includes artificial colouring, fragrance, preservatives and alcohol, and it seems like they have used it in large amount in the products. i did some further research online and was quite traumatized by the information i gathered. some ingredients are also used in some car engines?

i immediately called my friend whom i heard was a fan of laneige and was hoping to get some reassurance from her that i was just being too paranoid.

however, she told me that she had an outbreak months back and got some acne products from laneige. and it made the situation worse and she has since stopped using products from the brand. she told me her skin doctor said the initial outbreak could be due to harmful ingredients with her skincare products, causing underlying problems which can only happen after long usage of the products. and she mentioned that her doctor ‘hinted’ that it could also be due to laneige that causes her situation to get worse after looking through the ingredients.

till now her outbreak has not been cleared and she has been thousands of dollars trying to save her face by seeing some popular skin doctors.

i refuse to take the risk and threw away all my items from laneige. i may be saving money for the time being but who knows i may be like my friend spending much more to solve the skin problems aggrevated.

i know there are still fans of the brand around but im just sharing my opinions. "

It's kind of scary when you saw this .

and , i check the whitening ingredient , Arbutin . It contains in whitening products , even for some other brands .

Source: Wikipedia (i have crossed check with other sources)
"Arbutin is glucosylated hydroquinone,[1] and may carry similar cancer risks,[2] although there are also claims that arbutin reduces cancer risk.[3]

The German Institute of Food Research in Potsdam found that intestinal bacteria can transform arbutin into hydroquinone, which creates an environment favourable for intestinal cancer. It is known that the body excretes 64-75% of arbutin in urine, and arbutin converted to hydroquinone has an antibacterial effect in the urinary tract, hence the use of bearberry in herbal medicine, but it is not known why this substance plays a role in cancer development."

If you were in my shoe , aren't you guys afraid when you read this ?

And it's said that most whitening source have contained some ingredient with risk , though not much credit on it . However , it's better to be safe than sorry right ?

You can read up at wikipedia by typing "skin bleaching" .

As for the Laneige thing , many people gave credits for it's products . Personally , i like the Water Bank Essence . It works for me . As for the others , i began to have doubts .

Well , they cannot blame people to have such thoughts as they didn't state much on their ingredients used , according to the internet .

Still , it's up to the user . If it suits them , good then . If not , better change before your skin condition become worst .

So girls , love your tanned skin . Don't risk your life just to look beautiful . Know more information on the products beforehand .

Ok , end of the skin care thingy .

Tomorrow , i will be knowing which poly i am posted too . I am kind of nervous . It's just like repeating how i feel last year , except without xinying to share the feeling with me .

Wish me good luck xD

Tired , yet cannot sleep .
