Phone battery drains at quite an alarming rate? Lol.
#phoneisold
The USB for my portable also keeps spoiling? Like they can only last a few months. :(
Bought 3 at Hako Box last week, and I think all 3 have spoiled? LOL.
Could only exchange one. One they said was physically damaged so can't exchange for me.
Forgot to bring the third one so did not exchange that.
And bought Hebe album for quite some time already but haven't gotten round to listen to it.
Partly, it's because my Mac don't have disc burner? My brother said I could use his windows to burn the CD but I was too lazy, lolol.
That said, I haven't listened to the last B1A4 album I bought too. LOL.
A memorable webtoon I read sometime this month (that has ended), was Orange Marmalade.
I cried reading that. ಡ_ಡ
Orange Marmalade
By: Seokwoo
Totally did not expect that plot near the end. Had started reading this since maybe last year? Or last last year.
Thought it had a typical storyline of girl being a vampire > Get together > Cue some scenario > Overcomes that scenario > Happy End.
So thinking that it had a typical plot, I held off reading it, lol.
Decided to read it then, when I saw it was completed.
And omg, the part near the end.
Thought provoking too. Who are the ones who are truly evil?
Super happy when she had a happy ending at last. LOL.

Today I shall talk about makeup?
Some basics & order in which makeup is used (for me):
- 1. Primer/Makeup base
- 2. BB cream
- 3. Blusher
- 4. Powder
- 5. Eyebrow
1. Primer/Makeup base
Used as a layer of protection for the face and makeup. Will let your makeup last longer too.
POLA - Silifique Makeup base II
This is the one I've been using so far for quite a number of years. And it's quite good too.
I think one lasts me for more than a year? Maybe 1.5 - 2 years.
Anna Sui - Gel Foundation Primer
Recently bought this! Anna Sui products smell so nice??
Been using the sample pack now, and it's quite good too IMO.
2. BB cream
Tbqh, I think right now CC cream is popular?? And cushion too. Didn't really get the chance to use those as my rate of using (for this type of makeup) is simply too slow.
And yupp, foundation falls under here too. Don't think people are using much foundation anymore though.
Speaking of which, the foundation I bought for my poly internship is still in my makeup stash. LOL.
POLA - D BB Cream
Been using this for quite a while too.
Etude House - Precious Mineral BB Cream Blooming Fit
Gotten this as a sample version in the 3 pack form through Etude's LINE giveaway some time back.
Found this shade to be most complimenting for my skin tone.
Like, it feels like it melts so naturally on my face, haha.
I don't know if I'm imagining things, but I feel like my pores get smaller when I use this. LOL.
Anna Sui - Protective BB Cream 01
Bought this recently. Packaging is too pretty.
Been using the sample sachet this few days. I think I look quite fair??? Lol.
Luckily, it oxidises, so I think it doesn't look too fake.
3. Blusher
Adds color to your face.
The Body Shop - All-in-One Cheek Color 02
I had tended to avoid all things that makes my face red, lol.
It's the past 1 or 2 years? That I've used blusher more often.
And omg, my blusher is still at probably 95% despite me using almost everyday now??? Lol.
Also alternating blusher use with one from POLA. But couldn't find a picture of it online.
4. Powder
Sets your makeup in place, and lets it last longer. Can use this to make shiny makeup not that shiny too. (Hope the previous sentence makes sense, lolol)
Been using the POLA one and it's quite okay. I feel like it lasts throughout the day.
TBS one doesn't last that long.
Bought an Anna Sui powder too, have yet to use it. Though from what I tried the other time, the coverage seems to be quite good? No idea if it lasts.
5. Eyebrow
I have always been about eye makeup since the first time I took notice of makeup? LOL.
Then again, dramatic eye makeup is unrealistic in daily life. Lol.
And yupp, eyebrows!!! Bane of our existence. Constructs our face and gives it shape. ⁽(◍˃̵͈̑ᴗ˂̵͈̑)⁽
I've used powder-version for eyebrow, and now I prefer to use pencil.
Quite easy to use too.
Brands wise, I think any korean brand is good.
I have used Skinfood & Etude house's eyebrow pencil, and I find them both to be okay. Thus, from this, I think any korean brand would be okay.
Etude House - Drawing Eye Brow Pencil
One thing special about this is that there is a sharp edge to the drawing portion of the eyebrow pencil.
It's quite useful.
Skinfood - Black Bean Eyebrow Pencil
Tbqh, I feel like I'm only shading my brows.
I have no idea how to shape them, like in makeup tutorials. 「(°ヘ°)
And yupp!! This is it for my first makeup review???? Sort of? LOL.
Tbqh, I think different people have different skin type.
I'm the type who can't put too much layer of makeup on my face.
When I worked in Body Shop, I would always be in awe when I see my colleagues put on makeup. They can touch up every few hours, and their face would look so flawless.
Mine would just look cakey. (⌯˃̶᷄ ﹏ ˂̶᷄⌯)゚

So I'm going to talk about my few-hours-ago half/almost-faint-incident on the train.
Tbqh, I have no idea what triggered it.
I was just on the train, feeling normal?
When suddenly I felt like vomitting.
Shortly after, I felt black spots appearing before my eyes.
What I could think of was '我现在不能倒', combined with my 佛号, lol.
Didn't really have a clear sense of what really happened, because when I regained my senses, someone was holding/guiding me to a seat, and asking if I was okay.
I think the one who caught me had first aid skills?? She checked the pulse on my neck too. Asked me to look straight too.
One NS guy, and another Indian lady also walked front. So 4 people were asking me how was I. Other people were just staring. LOL.
Felt a little paiseh tbqh.
Aunty beside me like, stared at me every few seconds? LOL. Her way of checking if I'm okay, lolol.
I was offered a sweet by the Indian lady, and the NS guy asked if I had water. Afterwards he asked if I had sweet, I said no. Then the Indian lady gave me the sweet.
I thanked them all though!!
So luckily I didn't hit headfirst on the floor?
Quite scary. #imalive
For this 2 weeks, the rubbish chute at my block is undergoing some spray (?).
Not sure what it is called, lol.
So we are not supposed to use the rubbish chute. There is a temporary dustbin right outside our homes, and the cleaners will come to clear them twice a day.
Tbqh, I think that's a lot of work though. Imagine every floor and every household would definitely have rubbish. Add them up and it will be a lot for the cleaners to actually collect and bring them to the rubbish point.
I think as Singaporeans, we have gotten too complacent on the efficiency system in our country.
And I was wondering how in other countries, do they keep their households clean???
Like eg taiwan, the garbage van will only collect once a week. You have to be physically there to pass your rubbish to the van, if not you'd have to wait another week.
It's the same as Australia and Japan too.
I'm sure many Europe countries are like that too.
Is like, wow??
