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:

PS: Dunno why my pictures could not be rotated even after I did so in my computer.

Hope this little tip helps!

Oh my gosh... I realised I have been doing quite a fair bit of travelling this year alone. My aim was always to travel out of Singapore at least 3 times a year, and this year alone, I'm doing 2 years worth of travelling! I have been to Koh Samui, Koh Tao, Koh Pah Ngan as part of my Contiki trip, KL for company retreat, Taiwan for DB race and Sydney for work. All just in the first 7 months of this year... Upcoming trips I have planned are to Shanghai and Putra Jaya for DB races.. So all in, I'll be travelling a total of 6 times just this year alone. Think that means next year I can skip all my travels le... As if! =D All this travelling is tiring me out... Hahaha... Couldn't believe I will be saying this at all because travelling is one of my love... Heh. But then again, I will never say no to travelling lah... because it's always exciting exploring new places outside of Singapore :) I realise that when I'm overseas, I'm not that into all the touristy stuff...

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...
