It was really raining cats and dogs that day when Nadiah also known as Yaminogames in the cosplay world. Always finding the other perfect outfit to wear with the Sav Rainboots that my cousin bought for me on my last day in Vancouver. Walked around downtown of Singapore for the first time thanks to Nadiah. I even tagged along with her to HRM. A harajuku retail shop opened by real Japanese located inside of Bugis Junction. I have found clothes and bags that my favourite harajuku icon, Rin Rin owns. Rin Rin is from LA and she is a angelic pretty doll. She is now living in Japan and I was told that Rin Rin is the first ever recognized harajuku personal from overseas in Japan.

I was really happy that I was wearing my rainboots again. I tried to irritate Nadiah who was wearing a pair of white sneakers, " Naidah, are you shoes wet?" 

Nadiah:" No, why?"

Me:" Nothing, I just want to tell you that I will not get water into my feet cos of my rain boots that I am wearing right now." 

Nadiah:" LoL" and then we stumped upon some showroom kind of retail shops along the NAFA Campus. I was really happy to hear compliments from Nadiah about how pretty my rain boots are. I too fell in love at first sight with these rain boots, although I intended on getting a pair of Dr Martens which I have been wanting to get for the past three years.

Ended our day with eating Japanese Sweet Treat from TAIYAKI SWEET, Tai- Parfait, located at the B2 of Bugis Junction. I ordered the Brown Sugar with Hokkaido Ice Cream and red bean filling in it.

Could not think of any quotes on my own, thanks to good read for all of the quotes during this kind of the day!

OOTD #23: K, Red Polka Dot

Say Hi to Claudia, went out with her for the first time after knowing her for 2- 3 years. I have performed with her together during the last Junior Band In Concert which was held in my former school.

It was pretty impromptu meet up and we had korean bbq buffet - K. Cook Korean Buffet, a newly opened BBQ located inside of Orchard Central. ( K Cook's Facebook Page). We only pay $14.90 ++ per person for lunch and we can dine from 11:30am to 5pm during that period! I can eat all of the meat I want after having to eat only 2-3 meals a day without any taking any snacks. Strict diet for a few months and then pamper myself to nice food and then back to normal healthy human being's diet. We received really nice hospitality from them. I will really do a formal review about them during my next patrol. By the way, the Korean boss is very cute looking. *Wink*

I still cannot pose like a professional but who cares? I like what I am doing and this makes me happy and obviously brighten up my day. I always get contented really easily like a cup of frozen yogurt or a fun and exciting day WILL  make me feel gleeful for the whole day.

Finally after months of laziness, I had yogurt! Claudia took the effort for helping me to find my beloved yogurt. Coincidentally, she found my beloved YAMI yogurt. How I hope that they have a shop nearby my house or maybe open another outlet in the mall near my house! I usually choose natural if I could not decide on which flavour to pick. 

For the past 19 years (going to be 20 soon), I have met many different kinds of people in school and during work. Some people gossip about how bitchy others are and always pin- point on other people instead of themselves. Even if the on-lookers knew the culprit for all of the misunderstanding and unforgivable mistakes are them. 

Before I formally met Claudia, I was told that she was irritating, unreasonable, loud and basically the type of people who you will not want to be in favor with at any time. After I met her, everything proved that the gossip mongers who called themselves, friends of Claudia were wrong. She is really nice, reasonable, well when comes to loud no one else is louder than I am, person. She is the kind of friend everyone is willing to be with. She is true to me. She might be an outspoken person but at least she does not gossip or tell others what she thinks about you in a bad manner. Being frank with others will not hurt, oh well, it still depends on how sensitive the person is. Everyone wants to hear all of the good things about them.

Claudia taught me to have more confidence and do not keep bad comments that others have pointed out to me to heart, cos nobody is perfect in life. You can have confidence in everything that you enjoyed doing but there are deem to have other people who wanted to pull up deep down to the core. It is good to seek for advise. In the end, you are still the one who will be choosing whether you want to listen or not.

Like what Beauty Guru, Michelle Phan had said,"Be one of the kind."

We are still learning everyday. Try your best to enjoy every single moment in your life. Do not keep on drowning yourself with negativity. Lift your head up high and look at the clouds and seek inspiration and strive to do what you want to do, NOT what others are asking you to do or what others are already been doing. Be different, be one of the kind.
