5 favourites for August! Actually, I've been loving them for a while now! Reviews will take too long to write so a favourite post first.
1. Gucci envy
Bought this baby last year during Xmas period but I didn't really like it a lot. 1 year later the older jl starts to love the scent! It is very different from my usual floral sweet scent. Lasting power is ok and it smells good when the scent fades a little. A more 'formal' scent in my collection.
2. OJK green tea
Not a fan of sweetened, artificial green tea but that doesn't mean I don't like green tea. I love brewed Japanese green tea (or Chinese tea). OJK Japanese green tea is exactly my cup of tea LOL. I will brew 1 sachet in approximately 1L of water, 500mL at room temperature if I'm bringing it to school. My essential on tues/fri because lessons are damn long. My caffeine~
Anyway, green tea has a lot of health benefits/anti-oxidants so ya, a healthier source of caffeine?
Don't drink >1 sachet a day/have it everyday because I find it too 'cooling' for my body. And not at night unless you want to spend your night awake. It is damn bad :/
3. Senka perfect whip facial foam
My favourite facial wash now! So fun to wash with and it cleanses really well! Very affordable too.
4. The faceshop eyeshadow
Picked up some eye shadows again. TFS eye shadows are inexpensive and works like a dream. Really pigmented and they are a great everyday colour. I use them to line my eyes when I want a more natural look.
5. Liese moisturising spray
Review it
here. I have been reaching out for this a lot nowadays. It is not that hard to use once you've gotten used to spraying products on your hair. A very quick hair mist to freshen your hair and keep your hands free from oily serums or oils.
So I thought about it - the question that has been bugging me all my life, the question I've been avoiding day and night.
I need some sort of plan for the next 10 years. Things I wanna do, things I wanna experience and so on. But commitments chain me down like a criminal. From society to friends, from strangers to close ones.
Future is unpredictable but at least a little dream or idea will guide you to where you want. It is far better than wandering around, wondering where you ought to be, what you ought to do.
That being said, you're only free to explore if you are not caged up like a domestic bird. More often than not, the cage around you is your life. Or rather, the life society programmed for you.
Not everyone has the courage to step out of the cage.
And I wonder whether I will spend my whole life in it.
Hey guys! A quick one to summarise my week before I clear my work. Have to if I still want my free time/playtime :)
Will only record those with pictures hahaha. No pictures = boring day. Save you guys from really boring blabbering.

Dinner with the family @ Collins, a place highly recommended by sw. Very affordable but I find the food very average. Well, really worth the penny because the serving is huge!
Finished our dinner in about 15 minutes! In a rush as dad came home late and aunt was waiting for us at the airport.
Then we had the usual Swensens ice-creams again~
I kinda like the brownie (tasted really buttery) and the butterscotch ice-cream! Fatasssss.
Sent my sissy off :'( So lonely at home I started talking to my teddy bear hahahaha. 4 more weeks to having her around again~ My nonsense acceptor hehehee!
Breakfast. Big big big bun but not very nice

3rd schooling day! Well, I skipped the first week of school for work. Now I've a lot of online lecs to watch.
And a giant gap to bridge. Yup that's right. It's just week 2. Can't help but to feel plain dumb. Chem courses are quite taxing, a lot of online lecs and accounting are not making things better. I'm like a lost sheep during accounting lecture. ;___; My four days study week is gone ;____; x2
On the side note, I'm glad I'm not involved in other things, not like I've the luxury of time/effort to. Currently I've 4 tutees, school, driving classes and I'm probably taking an additional course and another commitment? I don't know yet. On top of that, family, friends and myself. ME. I miss me-time. Oh and this space. Might not sound like a lot but it is a lot for me to take. I barely have time because I'm the queen of procrastinator.
Okay time for whiny jl to go home.

Wanted to treat my family to crab dinner because I just received my puny pay but dad paid first. Bought ice creams for them instead!
Magnum is really nice! However, it is really pricey ($4+ from 7-11). Once in a while!
Random days
Went crazy whenever I'm out nowadays, like a hungry tiger on loose. Need to control my spending before it's too late!
One of the days - bought so much food I feel like I'm moving back to hall again
Need to blog about tw soon!
From sw!
If I have really short hair.
See you all!
