money saving tips... (for the ladies)

Hi All,

Just want to share a small tip with the ladies on how to prolong your manicures if you intend to have one done. I'm not a very girly girl nor very into manicures and stuff, but ever since I chanced upon a gelish advertisement a few months back, I'm kinda hooked. Firstly it's because it is afforable (S$28 per session for gelish) and secondly, it lasted me for at least one month each time I did it, which is VERY value for money to me. The usual manicures I do myself only last a few days max because I'm a very hands on person.

Ok, I'm sure many will start thinking "Won't the nails look damn gross with your new grown nail and old manicure?". Well, the secret to it is how to make the growing of your new nails less discreet! It's actually a no brainer to this (ok maybe I just wanna show off my nails lah). Choose a base that is either transparent or very close to your original nail colour.

If you are doing french, start off with a thicker tip, so that as you progress, you can slowly trim your nails and still have the french effect.

Here are some pictures to share on the past manicures I did:

Hope this little tip helps!

Lemons

Life have been handling me lemons recently and I find it very hard to make lemonades out of it. Why am I feeling even more lonely now than ever </3

Musings of the day

This morning I was going through my insta stories and saw Tony Gaskins (I love this guy) ask me a question session. It was so informative, and an eye opener to see so many people airing their relationship issues. It put a lot of things into perspective, especially seeing things from a 3rd party POV. Seeing what sort of advice all of them are seeking, the answer is already very glaring, but they are blinded by it and chose to ignore it. The same happened for me. The answer was glaring when I expressed my feelings a few months back, but I chose to hold on. Well, no more. When I finally opened my eyes and see things as what it is, I felt, free. Free from my own demons, own insecurities. And I felt ready to move on and focus on something else. What I have learnt is that true love never leaves you doubts and sadness. I have to learn to think for myself. On that note, I have decided to take a break from my DB team. Reason is very simple. It is a toxic relationship, one that limits my grow...

Campaigners

So, You Think You Know the Real Me? "Campaigners go all-in with their relationships, and if they fall apart despite their efforts, they can end up plagued with questions about why the relationship failed and what they could have done differently – without a buoy, these thoughts can crush Campaigners’ self-esteem as they sink into depression. It’s important for Campaigner personalities, as with anyone, to remember that relationships are in all ways mutual – mutual interest, mutual growth, and mutual responsibility – and they can’t be solely accountable. After a trial like this, Campaigners may be reluctant to open up and commit, and it can take years for a partner to navigate their bewildering depth and intensity, falsely believing that Campaigners’ enthusiasm and apparent openness means that they wear everything on their sleeves. The reality is that Campaigners’ spontaneity, the seeming inconsistency and erraticism the untrained eye sees, isn’t a product of flightiness or...
