Just turned 21, about 34 minutes ago. And I really shouldn't be up so late because I'm waking up to go jogging tomorrow morning, but... A birthday calls for a long, draggy, emotional post. 😳 Wearing #fayth Genesis Top in White, TTR ripped jeans (I forgot the name, that's what growing older does to you), and my trusty NB sneakers. But first, I've to show off this card made by the sister  @mehmehsheep  who is suddenly dabbling into watercolours. I wish I had the time and/or talent to do things like that. 😭 Maybe someday. (The name written is what she nicknamed me, in case you were wondering. Don't ask why.) Thank you to the annoying baby sister who gets on my nerves but is still my favourite sister (also, I only have one sister). A birthday post calls for a family photo, if not only for the fact that family is forever. Thank you to my parents for bringing me up for 21 years... It's definitely been a hell of a journey because I've not always b

Day 180

I'm considering getting one of these from Taobao because I have no offsies and I don't feel like splurging on one (I predict low mileage). Which one should I get? 🤔 any opinions, girls? I also love these two items from tonight's #fayth launch. 😭 But I'm really trying to save money for exchange, and these items have low mileage too... I can't wear them in freezing Canada. Another part of me keeps wishing I had applied to Korea instead, actually. Or this? There are a lot of sellers but the cheapest is about $10. None have reviews though... So I'm not sure if I should take the risk. Anyway guys sneak peek of a macaron from my birthday cake hehe. If y'all follow the baker that I got the cake from, you would probably already have seen it. But I haven't edited my photos yet and my birthday is tomorrow... So I shall post photos up tomorrow instead.

Day 178

Which #ootd photo is nicer, guys? This first one or the second one? Please help hehe I cannot decide. 😳 Stole my sister's new shirt to take ootd photos because I'm currently in a huge non-buying mood and have no new clothes. 🌚 Wearing #Fayth Chase Shirt, paired with my old #TCL ripped jeans and a sling bag - today was errands running day. I went out partly because I wanted to have a made-up face when I collected my birthday cake (yes! Collected my birthday cake and had an early celebration). Did my makeup in a huge rush today and got ready in around 40 minutes, eyeshadow and all. 👄 And I used my new Violet Voss Holy Grail Palette! A birthday present from the BFF that came just on time. I got it on ezbuy's anniversary, so the $10 off voucher paid for US domestic shipping and shipping to Singapore. This palette was sold out by the time I wanted to get it, so I had to search for it on their retailer's sites. Used a cranberry shade today and packed

Tried curls yesterday... But still a little wonky so one side is completely off. It's my most successful attempt yet though. But my friend said I look very motherly. 😂 Top: stolen from the sister as always Shorts: #TCL Carlva and I still can't get over how amazing the fit is for this pair of shorts Did a very neutral eye with no dark colours, and longer eyeliner because I wanted to do bright coral lips. Second time wearing Jenneration X and I'm still madly in love. Anyway I had early birthday lunch celebration with my family yesterday, update more later after dinner! I took leave on Friday because I wanted a break and also to settle some exchange stuff. (but I ended up not settling anything because I was too tired). We had a family lunch at the Pokemon Cafe by EwF to celebrate my birthday early since my actual birthday is in a Wednesday. 🎂 This was some sort of mashed potato and beef patty, wrapped in a crepe. Honestly there were only 3 main courses

Day 175

Guess what came in the mail yesterday! So tempted to keep the box because the lippie stix itself has no "Jenn Im" on it. What a bright pop of colour. When I opened it, I thought it would be money wasted for sure because I normally dislike bright shades. I have pretty thick lips, so bright shades tend to overwhelm my entire face and make me look garish and old. Bright lips (and eyebags?) for days. Wearing my new Colourpop Jenneration X that I bought off Shopee, thank you  @gilliansng ! The colour is a lot brighter than I would normally wear. But I was shocked because my colleague actually complimented my lipstick today! And said that it's a great colour that brightens up my face. I wonder if I can ship Colourpop to my house in Canada, it will be so much easier than using ezbuy 🤔 Close up! It's a super bright coral orange. And I really love the formula of matte X. It was pretty much 95% transfer proof (drank water and kissed my hand) until I ate lunch,

Happy Belated Papa's Day. 🙂 Featuring a very rare photo with the dad (in my glasses sobs I still miss the frames on that pair) that I took ages ago. Love you papa for always spoiling me no matter how annoying or childish I am. Please be strong and healthy for many many many more years to come. Lunch today at Bugis Junction because I didn't have the time to shop for groceries yesterday. The packed lunches will continue tomorrow! So tired because I only got to leave at 7pm. I couldn't sleep last night and ended up sleeping past 2am so I've been a zombie today. It didn't help that the client's place was the North Pole for the whole day and after 6pm all the air conditioner was switched off so it became the desert. 😌 Cui #ootd that I sneakily took in the client's washroom - and everyone I tried to take one someone entered. 😳 So I had to stand there and pretend to be using my phone LOL. Today's #FOTD with spammed highlighter as usual.
