Spoils from destressing

I've been shopping so much more than I ever did in my life. Shopping has become sort of a stress reliever for me ever since like after FYP and work started, ohnos. Good thing I still maintain my cheapo shopping style XD so I don't end up wasting too much money, even if I bought something I most probably wouldn't wear =-=
So perhaps in order to make myself feel better about shopping, I decided to make like a list so, I don't know, I can remind myself of the bargains I got? Haha self-delusional again.

Some of the following aren't exactly cheap, but I guess they're good enough for me (or maybe just at that point in time when I was most probably hungry or stressed out). Some items actually aren't really worth it, until you notice its original price...that's O.o like HUH?!
Anyway, so let's begin =D

Location: Bugis Street
Price: Think this was $9 (2 for $18, bought it with my evil twin who got the blue one)
Extremely comfortable, totally my style hahaha a little light coloured though, so I do wear a tank top inside.


Location: Pepper Plus (JP outlet)
Price: $15 (U.P. $32, yes, wth)
Very smooth material, thick enough not to wear innerwear yet very cooling. It's more of a minty green than the light blue seen in the photo.


 
Location: H&M
Price: $20 (U.P. $49.90, YES, SUPER WTH)
The H&M bag was too reflective I think...the shirt isn't that transparent...or maybe because it's black so I couldn't tell O.o this was sorta an impulsive buy when I was 1/3 tired, 1/3 hungry, 1/3 sian. It seemed like a good idea and good bargain (esp when the usual price is THAT high) then.


Location: some shop in JP
Price: $10
This is the back of the blouse, the slit is slightly low though but doesn't really matter if you have long hair and even if you don't, it isn't that low that it's unsightly or anything. A little transparent too, so I'm starting to be skeptical of this buy too =-=


Location: Expo warehouse sale (G2000 brand though)
Price: $29 (if I remember correctly)
I would say good buy hehs, although a little pricey but I think the original was $49 or something...

Bought a lot more than these of course, but lazy to actually lay them out to take pictures. The above pictures were all taken when I was pretty bored (and most probably had time). Maybe when I have time, I'll take pictures of more stuff I bought.

Work has been crazy. And it didn't help that I got so stressed last week that I nearly broke down. It isn't a nice experience to have almost everyone asking you questions and wanting something from you, especially when you are sometimes not in the position to give any answers either.


I'm still learning everyday. Bit by bit.
And frankly, it's the learning that keeps me going.

It's all coming to an end

End of another period/section of life.

Tomorrow will be the last class I am gonna have ever. At least in a classroom setting as a student whose occupation is...a student. Cuz I bet I will have the chance for courses to upgrade skills and what not where I will also be in this kinda setting again but the feeling will never be the same. Think I'm already missing this before it's over.

Anyway, yay! There's an actual video out for "Cups" le~ woots!



In one month's time, I am gonna be outta here =D out of this little island. For a short break before getting back to life and all things serious. Totally looking forward to it as time goes on. The excitement that used to be there when we first booked those tickets was gone for a while as we all got back to our studies and own lives. But it's slowly coming back as the days come nearer ^^

To make this trip worthwhile and memorable, there are so many things I wanna do, but obviously there's the time and money issue. But the important thing is, I guess I really just gotta relax and let my hair down. This is what the trip is for. As a self-reward for the hard work for all these years...I need to keep telling myself that, yes. Hahaha suddenly I sound like I am deluding myself -.- anw, point is, I am planning to make some video/picture collage of sorta after I am back. Hopefully, I do get it done this time round, compared to previous Aussie trip for which I said I would wan to do something like that, but never did it.

For now, back to reality. And doing my best for everything.

Cups

It MUST take something epic for me to start writing haha ._. >.<

Was planning on writing a post (i've totally forgotten about wad) since my relatives went back. After they went back, I was busy for a period where I was doing some temporary jobs. Gotta save for my grad trip ya know. Then school started and some of the work continued and I nvr ever got to coming back here to write a post.

Now, maybe 2 hours ago, as usual I go on youtube and start linking here and there and arrived at frosty the snowman by uuuuuuuukewithme. Then in related videos there were many cups videos. This cups craze like just started recently and I realised that its due to this "Pitch Perfect" movie last year in 2012. Started hopping and I even found a Cimorelli version. N being me, I totally went off track, started looking at Cimorelli stuff rather than cups vids and zomg they have really gone very far since I first watched one of their videos I guess one or two years ago, I carn really remember. They have a VEVO account now O.o wow.


This video was posted in 2009 so I guess we can safely assume that they didn't jump onto the bandwagon with this recent craze thanks to the internet.


Cimorelli's EP, pretty nice song =)

Anyway, this cup song is really cool haha at least the multitasking skills of all those who've tried made me awed. I wanna try it in Europe haha in front of the Eiffel or Colosseum HAHA and record it or something. Recently having this crazy thought to record something in front of all these monuments I'll be going. Like really, when would I have a chance to do this again? Plus I most probably wouldn't be meeting all these strangers in those lands anytime in my life again so it's ok for me to act crazy and silly with my antics =D
My dream is coming true ^^

My latest obsession haha the Enneagram.....and I just realised that the Myers-Briggs personality types could also be applied into this Enneagram. I have already forgotten which type I am. But I do remember that it does change during your lifetime. While the Enneagram, its said that the personality type is inborn and thus doesn't change, because the type indicates the motivations you possess behind things and decisions you make in your life, so subtly on the outside you may change but your motivations remain the same.
