Hey guys! Well yea, I know I've did reviews/adverts for quite a number of different blog shops before and most of them are really good. Nonetheless, I'm still gonna compliment how awesome http://sassydream.blogspot.com/ is!!!
Sometimes, I just hate it when you've to wait superrrrrrrr long for your items to arrive, and sometimes those items don't even turn out to be like what you've expected. It's like their pictures online are so hell deceiving! That "cheated" feeling. Urgh.
Besides, it may not flatter you as much as you thought!!! Lousy quality, different colours, doesn't fit you as well... And all those shitty things start to appear after you unwrap the parcel, in anticipation for days, that it might be so good that you can wear it out on a special date... And results = NO WAY I'M EVER STEPPING OUT OF THE HOUSE IN THIS!!!
Well then you can probably wipe off those horrifying moments and put your mind at ease! I just love the items I received from sassydreams In fact, I'm so satisfied with it! KUDOS! Definitely, there are other blog shops out there that deserves some credit too... But you'll not regret investing your $$$ in their unique collections!
Here are some of the items I recommend!!! Will wear on mine and show you guys the pictures on my next entry! :)
Not forgetting that they sell bags too!!! What's best is they can actually fit A4 sized! So girls who loves going on study dates, you can forget about troubling how fugly you look with your school bag on, on weekends!
If you don't want me now, don't come back for me later when I'm over you.
Have you ever had this killing urge to give someone a text or call? Someone who suddenly drifted apart from you and ended up walking out of your life without a word? Someone that really means so much to you?
I really hate it when they leave you in silence, keeping you hanging with full of never-ending "Why(s)" and a ghastly feeling... Numb, no tears.
Especially when you realize how they are able to move on effortlessly after all those memories you guys formed. Soon reality just hits you so hard *BAM* "Wake up, he/she's gone and will never return."
Sometimes it's so much better to be hurt right in the face with the most awful truth than to carry on living with a lie/a ray of false hope. If you ever faced it, it really sucks... Right?
If I ever wanna leave, can you promise me you'd still try to hold me back no matter what?
What's worst when you're forced to face the ugly truth that, no matter how badly affected you are, despite how hard you try to get their attention on you again... They'd never ever take a look back; not a single glance.
To me, I think what really pains most is knowing that they will never feel the same towards you.
Yea, it's true that I won't die without you. I'm just saying with you around, my life would be so much better.
I mean isn't it tough? Tough that you've to swallow back your tears, flash a fake smile and act like you're really doing fine without them, when it actually feels like there's a blade penetrating right into your heart each time?
It's funny how we can easily blabber things like, "It's so easy! Just move on." "Oh c'mon, time will heal all wounds." "Why are you acting like there's no other guy/girl in this world anymore?" But when it strikes you; and you're facing it yourself... You can NEVER do it.
Love is never gonna be easy, there bound to be heartbreaks. At the end of the day, the one who loves the most will always end up hurting. It's like the game whereby "Who gets attached first, loses."
After all it's all about taking risks; Either in exchange for a lifetime of happiness or an eternal scar.
Wipe off your tears girl, he's not worth it. Save it for the right guy, who will only make you shed tears of happiness.
Went on a date with my darlings to town on Friday. Had so much fun catching up after a long time. It's awesome how we have so little time for each other, but we still manage to maintain this friendship till today.
Finally had the chance to check my Olympus baby :( And the guy told me my lenses were damaged! Yea, my butter fingers slipped the freakin camera off and it dropped on the floor.
I've totally no idea what on earth is this or who took this.... But I thought it looked pretty artsy. HAHA!
Grabbed from Ps's blog.
Sounds really lifeless... But I went to town on Sat again. HAHA! Freda (My "manager" or friend) brought me for some dessert!!!! Cos I was freakin depressed. Not gonna elaborate on why I was.
It's so yummy!!! Must try!!! @ Ion. Ok dammit, I forgot what's the name of the restaurant. fml. But I know it's on the third lvl! It's some open-spaced cafe or something that serves mainly western/french cuisine I think!!!!! Didn't really took the effort to examine the entire menu. Hehe.
I was all out for the food, so much that I don't even remember what I ordered... Scatterbrained.
So we went to visit the Noise staffs. And get ourselves the tote to DIY!
Was not really in the artistic-mood that day. Lost of inspiration. So my bag turned out looking like crap. Too disgraced to show it! HAHA.
Cracking my brain on what to draw...
This is Eunice's, so pretty isn't it!!! Hehe.
And Freda's! Ahhhh love it!
Headed to cine to find my bestie and to play a few rounds of pool. Great, I think my pool skills improved. *Shows off*
Anyway I got the bottom from Topshop and top from MNG (I cropped it).
Ending off with my four different hairstyles! Till the next time! :)
An initiative of the National Arts Council, Noise Singapore is dedicated to making noise about the creative talent of young people aged 35 and below. Through numerous platforms to express, develop and showcase their creativity, Noise Singapore hopes to encourage young people in Singapore to actively participate and nurture their relationship with the arts, as well as get them spotted for their budding abilities.
Broadly classified under the genres of art and design, music and photography, the Noise community will learn from top professionals, interact with like-minded youths and share their original creations with the world.
Noise Singapore platforms include concerts at venues like the Esplanade that feature young musicians hungry for performing experience and exposure, exhibitions of varied scale that showcase the original artistic creations of young people, an online gallery, mentoring programmes that link aspiring artists with top professionals in the industry, as well as workshops, talks and activities that focus on providing a fun experience of participating in the arts. - Quoted from Noisesingapore.com
Let me first introduce you guys a few pieces of really spectacular art work done by some extremely talented young artists from Noise!
ART & DESIGN
Transposition
This piece, entitled Transposition, is my first foray into the world of 1/6th scale figures. I wanted to do a jarring yet relatable character, one with a "ready to take on the world" attitude. Fully sculpted head, hands, custom paint job and clothing. size: 12 inches - By Dory
A disgruntled blue collar worker
this piece is part of a series that pays homage to my childhood influences, a commentary on how a particular aspect of my youth culture has shaped and influenced my body of work. Repeatedly, when searching for inspiration, there is an inherent disposition for one to draw from past experiences and imagery. It is this sense of familiarity that we find solace in; an act of escapism through which one often finds epiphany.
PHOTOGRAPHY
Detour No. 3
Underlining presence with absence, my intention is to create a ‘portrait’ of the human occupant(s) of the house – who remain tantalizingly out of sight – and the proud, eccentric and self-centered life they lead. Stemming from a fascination with the image we project or the spaces we inhabit, I have projected an avatar or alter ego into the traditional space of portraiture.- By Ang Song Nian
Not forgetting MUSIC!
http://www.noisesingapore.com/theworks/musiclisting to soothe your ears with some impressive music created by all the youths. I promise you'd love them. I really like "This Is War" A creation by Jaime Wong!
So yeap, I attended one of the Noise's events hosted at Goodman Arts Gallery. And I really love everything about it there.
Basically, to elaborate more on what's this about...
Feast your eyes on some of the best works of art, design and photography created by young people! Drawing from over 8k submissions to an open call last year, this celebration of inspiring art words and photographs.
With live performances, by budding musicians on weekends, a DIY art corner for you to express your creative flair and limited edition merchandise designed by Noise Artists that you can bring home with you, there's something for everyone at this showcase exhibition!
I must say I really had a pleasant time during those few hours when I was there! Not only did I manage to lay my eyes on all these beautiful art pieces, there was also a breathtaking performance put on stage!
Look at them, carefully designed and made by young people like us...
The next 3 pieces blew my mind! Well, I'm really a moron when it comes to interpreting what these pictures were trying to illustrate but I thought they were pretty interesting. And they definitely caught my attention!!! Don't they remind you of some tumblr stuff? Hahaha.
What's better than shopping aside from all the art and music?!
THE ITEMS ARE SO CUTEEEEEEEE!
Yea I'm not kidding, you can purchase your very own souvenirs!
There were these two gorgeous twins waiting for their picture to be printed! HAHA, lovely. You can choose your desired background and walk away with a picture of yourself at only 2 bucks!
Did you guys notice an item in this picture which I can't take my eyes off as well?! YEA DUH, the knnbccb tshirt. It's damn cute lah!
FOOOOOOD. Yea refreshments available! FREE, I know you've been waiting to see that word. Hehe.
Yummmmmmmm!
