Gmarket Haul

2011-08-08T04:08:00.000-07:00

MY GMARKET PACKAGE HAS ARRIVED!!!!

The wait was worth it I guess.

This is like my first ever purchase from Gmarket Korea and let me forewarn you, do use

IE to place an order and make payment.

DO NOT USE Google Chrome!!

*I used google chrome and even tried making payment twice but an error(344) came up =.=
I read in forum(s) that multiple deduction from the bank ever occurred.

This really scared the shit out of me since I even had this 3D verification thing keyed in twice while using Google Chrome. Fortunately, they did not deduct so yeah (:
So in short, just be on the safe side and use IE.

This is the base of my parcel. Look how squash it was.

Anyway, it doesn't bother me since I did not purchase anything fragile. :D

I wasn't home when the postman came.

My brother told me the postman went POSTMAN, POSTMAN.

Hahaha pretty cute since I haven't encounter a postman that went shouting like this.

My items filled up the entire space of the box only because my box wasn't that big. :p

I merely purchased 2 skirts, 1 shorts and 3 pairs of socks.

Didn't want to risk buying a whole lot of clothes with lousy material considering the fact

that I am still new to Gmarket Korea and I am unsure of what to expect.

*I ever purchased clothes online with really lousy material

and it was pretty much a disappointment.

This was what was in the parcel.

The 3 pairs of socks I purchased.
1 pair only cost about US$1.84

This socks are those lacy type whereby you can match them with your heels, wedges.

SOCKS rating : 5/5

This was probably my best buy.

My shorts. I paid about 30SGD*Incl.shipment.

(That is if I didn't remember wrongly.)

The quality of the belt: 3/5
Shorts: 3/5

Me and my new pair of shorts :D

My above the knee black skirt.

*The ribbon came with the skirt. It wasn't sewn on.

It is a pin on thingy.
I don't really like the ribbon on the skirt so I am not pinning (:

Black Skirt Rating: 3/5

http://english.gmarket.co.kr/challenge/neo_goods/goods.asp?goodscode=190162067

My yellow mini skirt. It was a great steal.

I can't really remember how much I paid but it was definitely reasonably price.

Yellow skirt Rating: 4/5 *Considering the price I paid.

That marks the end of my post.

Will probably hop on to Gmarket to purchase more this week. :D

I love this photo which I took from my room.

Aunt's 70th Birthday

2011-08-07T00:07:00.000-07:00

I wonder who still reads my blog hahaa...
I've been like hiatus for a pretty long time.

In case you haven't realized, I actually deleted all my High School day(s) post.

I kind of regretted it now. Oh well, what had been done cannot be undone.

Not too long back, I actually celebrated my aunt's 70th Birthday at a hotel.
(Sorry, can't recall the name of the hotel.)
We had buffet. It was such a feast that I think, I might have gained a little.

*Just yolking. I doubt, I did haha...
The food wasn't that good but I will still give it a rating of 7/10
The Kuehs was a total bleh...
Don't be deceive by the pictures.
What was nice was perhaps the waffles, bread and maybe the salad? But come on' salad?
Salad = Pick your favorite vegetables and sauce. *So maybe that doesn't count :p

I love the lighting.

This was the place we had our dinner.

I took the satay, duck, cucumber, Thai tofu and Chinese noodles.

Oh yeah, the satay was awesome.

I believe this was what they call the pumpkin soup.

SUSHI!!!! It was really unfortunate that the raw salmon that day doesn't taste that good.

:(:(:( I really love RAW salmon. I miss the one in Japan. SIGH!

I won't be going to Japan anytime soon thanks to the radiation.

The salad and waffle. I love the Cherry Tomato.

Desserts.
I had my grape coated with chocolate.

*U can use the Chocolate fondue "fountain" to coat whatever fruits you want.

This is the "FOUNTAIN" of chocolate hahaa...
The chocolate wasn't that good either. SIGH!!
Maybe, it was just me.

Look at us, looking stupid. Hahaa...

*Alright, we were just bored.

I haven't tasted it but my cousin gave it a bleh so I decided to give it a pass.

Wise choice?

THE NOT SO AWESOME KUEH, I MENTIONED EARLIER.

SIGH!!!!

Pies.

Cakes and more cakes to come.

The salad selection we had.

The hotel's fine collection of wine.

The host of the day.

My niece.

No doubt we are a generation apart, we are actually only 2 years different.

HAHAHA....

The lighting was bad.

The highlight of the day.

Our family decided to get her a slice instead of a whole considering we had buffet.

SUSHI again.

This sweet stuff were meant to be place on ICE CREAM but I used them for my waffles.

Ooops hahaa.

I gave ICE CREAM a pass. Didn't want to gain an extra KG.

ME, getting bored

The children.

The magnificent view outside the hotel.

This little girl refused to let me take a picture of her :(

Cute?

NATIONAL DAY IS COMING (:
HAPPY BIRTHDAY IN ADVANCE, SINGAPORE.

I SHALL HEREBY DEDICATE THIS POST TO DETECTIVE

2010-09-05T02:49:00.000-07:00

Yes, there isn't a mistake.

I am dedicating this post to Detective who still faithfully reads my bloggy.

I've read your comments on twitter so do note that I might not be an active twit bird but at least, I have the decency of finding out about things beyond my horizon hahaa...

Seriously, WHAT THE HECK am I blabbering about hah...

Biology exam is just 2 days away and I am not too sure why I don't have a sense of urgency.

Oh crap. I should seriously shoot myself.

I even thought of going to the manicurist tomorrow and have my nails re-paint.

Upon shifting to the topic of nails, it just reminds me of how unsuitable I am for them. :(

A day after my nails are freshly painted, I actually dropped two blings and just today I broke a part of the 3D ribbon that was powder painted. How tragic.

ARGHHH.... The thought of it just made me boil. I wasted $30 on it.

Lesson learnt, never spend so much on your 10 fingers when you jolly well know you don't live a princessy life whereby servants kill insects for you.

*I broke a part of my 3D ribbon while killing insects*

OK, I am off for dinner. I will let the pictures do the rest of talking.

THIS WAS WHERE I WAS ON FRIDAY hahahaa....

Blogging, used to be a part of me and now it seemed that I have distanced myself away from it.
After being hiatus for a few months, I am back.
Life had been hectic and 2010 doesn’t go easy on me.
Whoever said that poly life was slack, should jolly well hang themselves.
I have to admit, I did make great friends along the way. However, the long hours of school really put me off. Clubs in my school are also rather limited. There is nothing to marvel about. I joined 4 clubs and out of the 4 clubs, I am only really interested in 2. So far to this date, I’ve only attended SIP. The French club I joined, orientation, clashes with the SIP discussion timing and I had no choice but to choose one. I choose SIP at the very end basically because I wanted to see how the club works. I seriously felt out of place when I met up with the other NEW members.*I have nothing against them.
I don’t see myself as a unique individual but however in this case, I felt like I came from another planet.
I felt so different from the rest. The president’s vision was to inculcate moral principles in his members by urging each individual not to be political. *I am not too sure if I caught it right but I guess it is something like it. At the start of the session, everyone was made to introduce themselves and I was really dreading it. People introduce themselves as ____ coming from ___ school and also having done don’t know what business while I, just said my name, school, course and a question of what they want to know about me. *Sound rude but well, I sort of figured that, that is an easier way out of telling things too personal.
I don’t want people to know that I used to import stuff and sell. Oh, this reminds me it has been so long since I last ordered clothing in bulk. I miss my High school days when Esther, Aizen and me would come together and discuss what clothes to order for our own personal usage. :D
Those were the times.
