The 199 Shop !

Advertorial

Sorry for not updating for so long!!

Have been busy with school, midterm tests, projects and going to Kuala Lumpur with DC! (muahaha! ♥♥♥)


Guess what arrived in the mail last week???


Fabulous clothes from The 199 Shop!

I've been so busy clearing up undone work to prepare for our KL trip that I had no time to buy new clothes to wear during the trip!

But luckily I could shop online at my convenience at The 199 Shop!




As the name suggests, NOTHING IS OVER $19.90 !!!

Can you believe it?!

After purchasing from so many blogshops/online stores selling the same overpriced but low quality stuff, honestly I was quite tired of online shopping.

The 199 Shop was really a breath of fresh air for me... Their items are so unique and they bring in new stuff so often!

They have like different themes every time and they bring in new apparels according to their theme! Like Sweet Soliders (military theme! ♥), Going Corporate, Tribal Chic and coming up next is Explorer! ~

I find myself going back every time just to check up on what new pretty clothes they have!

Ok, enough talk, these are some of clothes I picked!



I got this in Navy Blue! But I couldn't find the picture for it cus it's already sold out! Boo hoo!



Where else can you buy a suspender dress like this in Singapore for less than $20 ?!



I got black military flare shorts that looks something like this but it's already sold out too! Girls, hurry up before all the good buys get snapped up! =D

Now time for some pictures of me wearing them!

 

Ok, first attempt at "modeling" clothes - pardon the awkward expression.


Ack, can see the tan line on my arm so clearly -.-


My absolute favourite piece from all the stuff I ordered! ♥


Love it cos the nylon material really has a slimming effect!

Want this awesome dress too?

♥ Go check out The 199 Shop for good quality apparels at competitive prices! ♥

I'm sure there'll be something you like! :D

University is Crazy!


My life is a juggling act - maintaining good grades (attempting, and failing.), 4 CCAs, leadership roles, 6 tuition lessons per week.

Not to mention now is the season to send out internships, scholarships and exchange applications.

I am filling up so many application forms, writing so many essays, photocopying so many certificates and qualifications, requesting so many recommendation letters...

In retrospect, I quite like this part about University. There's so many opportunities to do so many different things, but unlike all your schools before, no one will say "Hey, I signed you up for this. Please fulfill this role 2 times a week and you'll get into a good Uni/job." It's all up to how much initiative you want to take.

A year ago when I just entered University, I had the attitude that "I must get really good grades even if it means I have to take fewer modules than others and graduate later than them." But when the notion that I was turning 20 hit me, I realized that much more than anything else - time was of essence. I don't have the luxury of stubbornly sitting on my fantasy of getting good grades, and miss out on everything else...it is a price too high to pay.

I've always had a one-track mind, when I was focused on something I would abandon everything else to do it. Whether it's playing computer games, training for competition, or studying, it was always like that. In University I learnt (and still trying) to pick things up as I go, and to let go of things easier. You didn't get selected for that position? Try for another. You didn't do well for this quiz? Do better next time. You screwed up today's presentation? Make up for it in other ways.

This is so contrasting to all my schooling life previously when PSLE, Olevels, Alevels was DA BOMB. You work hard for whole of 6 years, 4 years, 2 years for that and if you screw that up you are a goner.

In University, if you wallow in self-pity every half a year when you get your results, nothing will ever start. You just gotta get up and move on.

I think Uni is where real life starts.

Singapore City Pass Media Launch !

The Glitterati+ bunch was invited to another awesome event last week!

The media launch of the Singapore City Pass!!!


We met at the Tourist Hub @ Singapore Flyer to collect our Singapore City Passes!


And our VIP tags! Muahaha! :D





 
The Singapore City Pass is actually a really small sticker that you can stick on your phone, wallet, or anywhere.



Love the anti-slip texture! 
I still have it on my phone now cus it keeps my phone from slipping off the table!





 
Boarding the FunVee bus...
Time to tap our Singapore City Passes!


 
First time sitting on an open-top bus!!!
It was fabulous! 
Wind blowing in our faces, zooming past people and cars...felt like I was on a Vacation Trip ~ :D

 
And we are heading to...Underwater World!


 
Then again at the Ticketing Booth...


 
Tapping our Singapore City Passes!


 
Group photo with our performers of the day, together with their Ukeleles...
 
Before we proceed to...


 
The very inviting Dolphin Suite!!! ~


 
Had free time after refreshments so it's Picture Taking time ~


 
Nothing beats chilling around in an air-con lounge, with a glass of lime juice in hand and...


 
Watching dolphin performances right beneath us!
 
Awesome right?!?! That's why it's called the Dolphin Suite!



Best view ever + all the audiences were like sitting in open-air in the hot afternoon while we were just peering down from our wonderful air-conned room while sipping juice ~ XD




Time for the Singapore City Pass presentation!



The Singapore City Pass allows you to See More, Do More and Get More!
 

It can be can be loaded with admission to attractions, meal vouchers, club events, concert events or even gift vouchers for retail items such as gifts ~

It's great cos you can save more than 45% when you purchase flexible packages using your Singapore City Pass and enjoy exclusive discounts and rewards when you spend at participating merchants!



Photo of City Tours and fellow trade partners!



We got these cool polaroid-like photos before we left!

So thoughtful of them!
