I'm hoping that with a fresh start and a new blog, I'd be more motivated to write and hopefully put the past behind me. No more cringing at my old posts and feeling burdened with the weight of my past actions. Like the lifting of Uranus off Atlas' back, like the shelving of that one final book before closing time in the library, my arms are toned and I feel FREEEEEEEEEE.
Well. Just give me some time. Like a year or two, and maybe this cycle will repeat.
With the exception of two lions and a pot of water, I have not revealed this site to anybody and I am not likely to ever do so. Not necessarily because I dislike the rest of the people I associate with, but rather because I don't see a point in giving this address to people who have no intention of reading it anyway. I am not setting myself up to be ignored. I don't have much hope for random people on the internet reading this but if they do, feel free to drop me a message or comment anytime. :D Am in a desperate need for interesting conversations.
As I mentioned in the "About Me section", this shall be a blog for anything and everything. Book reviews, rants ranging from personal things to philosophical things that probably aren't very intelligent, beauty reviews(?) and monthly wishlists (ah, the fickle human heart), my own fiction writing. Am still debating writing NSFW stories because while it may be fun and I can imagine myself giggling while typing out every juicy detail, I am DOOOMED if my dad comes across this blog again since it's open to the public. Then again, he already thinks I'm more or less a whore (though in my entire life I have only made out with 2 guys, one of which I'm currently dating. Yeah I've done stuff, only with the current one I'm dating that I'm actually serious about and have been dating for 3 years, but no I've not had sex) so maybe there isn't really a point.
I might also post art stuff, my doodles and my jewelry designs etc.
Anyway, on to my current going-ons. Right at this very moment I am trying to get accustomed to using the shift key instead of the cap key for typing capital letters.My left hand is straining because it's not accustomed to shifting down while typing. My pinky is probably feeling as nervous and stressed out as a fresh graduate at his first day work. No idea what's happening, doesn't know how to cope with a sudden change. So small and weak, but forced to be relied on by his larger and more dominant colleagues. I am alone in the study and I am freezing. Goosebumps on my skin and legs, hair frizzy, Pate Grise on my nose and forehead, I am NOT a pretty sight at the moment. Also I'm overdue for a waxing session and it's peeving me. IF I WAIT TILL THE END OF THIS MONTH I CAN GET FAIRY TO DO IT WITH ME SO I SHALL BE PATIENT ( Fairy- if you're reading this don't you dare back out. I'd have grown out my pubes for nothing. You'll break my heart ): )
I've been working in the Central Library at Bugis for 2 weeks now (this would be my 3rd week), and I must say that the pay's absolutely crap and so are the break times. 15 minutes for a 6.5 hour shift, are you kidding me? If it weren't for my devoted and oh-so-loving boyfriend (<3 <3 <3) who comes to visit me regularly and buys me dinner, I'd be really malnourished. There are perks, though. Uniform is hideous (whoever invented the long sleeve polo shirt deserves a long and difficult life) but very comfortable as I can wear pants and sneakers, as long as they're black. I can paint my nails and more or less wear whatever makeup I want. The job's low-stress and very laid back, and I get to snag books that have been freshly returned for myself (for instance, Lisa Eldridge's Face Paint and Peggy Porschen's Boutique Bakery). The schedule's also very flexible so I can more or less meet people wherever and whenever.
Just the other day, the bae stayed back and waited for my shift to end so that we could have supper together and that made me really happy too. :) We had some delicious fried chicken and llao llao. Which is why I'm treating him to a free ticket to Adventure cove, sometime this month because he's been a huge sweetheart, though we've been fighting a lot because of him leaving for London for 4 years, we somehow make up (and sometimes subsequently out) in the end and that's a relief.
I've been having sleepovers with the Best Fairy. She has a lot on her plate at the moment and it pains me that she's gonna be working for 3 months straight and possibly falling into some kind of zombie depression. I'm hoping that my sleepovers with her make it slightly better :3 Am still super happy about the salted caramel and earl grey cupcake she took the liberty to buy me.
Today, I went to the dentist for the first time in 4 years. Yes, 4 years. To my huge relief, no cavities. Generally good condition, with the exception of some crowding that has made my teeth crooked because of my wisdom teeth that's growing out and fucking things up. Dentist highly recommended I get it surgically removed or my teeth might get even more crooked and the surrounding teeth face decay. I wanted to undergo the procedure where I'm put into a catatonic state and all my wisdom teeth gets removed once and for all. However it seems that that is very pricey so my mom booked me for the other procedure, where I am ONLY NUMBED AND WILL BE FULLY AWAKE AND CONSCIOUS I DON'T FUCKING WANT THAT I'M ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIED I'M A COWARD WHEN IT COMES TO MEDICAL PROCEDURES. ALSO THIS PROCEDURE CAN ONLY BE DONE FOR TWO TEETH SO I HAVE TO DO THIS TWICE ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME. The appointment for my first round of extraction is on 27th April and I'm dreading it.
After the extraction, my mom is FINALLY getting me braces, something I've wanted for years. I hope I can get colored ones. I'd love mint or purple ones.
Anyway. Today Fairy's mom treated me to a very delicous (and filling) meal at this japanese tempura place in Tanjong Pagar. Then we shopped in a korean mart and I now have this detox vegetable pack thing that's going to alleviate my guilt about my horrible diet. I subsequently chilled at her house before meeting the bae at orchard and then going for my dental appointment. The Boyfriend waited for me.
My mom, him and myself had dinner at Muji. We bumped into Fairy so we had time to chat a little before leaving. Our moms got on unsurprisingly well. Also, the butter chicken curry is TO DIE FOR. Definitely coming back for more food.
MONEY NEEDED:
USD$110 - Choies clothing order (3 dresses, 1 t-shirt, 1 top, 1 necklace and 1 ear cuff)
SGD$202 - Beautybay order (curling iron, heat protectant, teeth whitening strips, mario badescu's buffering lotion, eye primer for mom, pan concealer, and vera mona's colour switch) UPDATE: DONE :D
SGD$34-74 depending on which foundation I choose to get. Either the Estee Lauder's invisible fluid, Shu Uemura's skin:fit cosmetic water foundation, Shiseido's synchro skin liquid foundation, or Too Faced Born this Way foundation. Or stick with the Bourjois healthy mix, because I'm getting bored of my Chacott one even though it's awesome. Yep.
SGD$32 - Strip Ministry of Wax bikini wax
SGD$80 - Adventure Cove date date
EXTRA MONEY to bring the chair and the tall lolita to Antoinette.
THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT AFTER THIS I DON'T HAVE ANY COSMETICS STUFF TO BUY LEFT SO I CAN 1000% FOCUS ON CRAFT STUFF, CLOTHES AND BOOKS :D
...Looks like I may have to continue working until my contract ends haha. Money man.
Anyway, this is it for today, I've got the late shift tomorrow so I need my rest!
