Not the sleeveless kind of girl

As most of the people around me know, I'm not the sleeveless kind of girl. To see me wearing sleeveless at anytime of the day, it is a rare sight. But I would very much love to wear sleeveless, not that I don't like sleeveless. Who wouldn't like to wear sleeveless on such a hot weather in Singapore?

But girls will always be girls. I don't have much confidence in my body, especially with such flabby arms, its a better decision to let them all hide behind sleeves. Nobody would want to see my arms jiggling all day right. While some of my friends tell me that I should start wearing sleeveless, its still quite hard to step out of my comfort zone.

Thus, shopping for clothes has become quite a hassle for me. Everytime I chance upon a beautiful piece of dress/top, it would either be sleeveless, or the sleeves are too short. Worse still when shopping online, who knows whether my arms could fit in to that tiny sleeve hole. Most of the models are sooooo skinny.

When shopping online, my cursor would automatically go for the - jumpers and cardigans for women - section. No point browsing through the dresses sections and feel sad because I don't have enough confidence to wear them!

Browsing back into my instagram feed, all my #ootd shots are indeed sleeves and more sleeves.

Except for this rare recent #ootd.

Look at the flabby arms. You get what I mean? No no, don't tell me they look fine. Its all because of the camera angle! In real life, they are as huge as your thighs. Okay, maybe not that big.. but you get the point.

Need to start doing arm exercises to get rid of all the flabs. Planning to commit in to a weekly gym schedule since my office building has a gym, and its free for us to use. Maybe I'll be back next time complaining about how all my clothes are too loose for me to wear. Oh well... fat hope.

2 months since

It's been 2 months since the last blog post. I've very much adapted into the adult working life, with bills to pay and paying for everything myself. There's pros and cons to this, but definitely more pros than cons. Its like earning my own money, and spending my own money. Especially pay days, and public holidays. Public Holidays used to mean nothing to me as its just another day with the family. But right now, its a bonus. I get a day off from work, spend time with my family, PLUS, EARN MONEY. Its like I'm getting paid to go shopping, or simply laze around at home. Shiok!

The proudest thing I've done so far at work, is actually designing the company's website! Of course, without the help of my AD, guiding me throughout the design process, as well as the developers/IT specialist, photographer, and everyone else involved in providing content to the site, the site wouldn't have be able to be launched smoothly! The site is responsive too!

Looking forward to more awesome projects!

Other than work, work, and more work, I've also celebrated my birthday 5 days ago! If you are following me on Instagram, you've pretty much seen all these photos.

Blessed with thoughtful colleagues who surprised me with mini cupcakes and a birthday song, even when my birthday is tomorrow. Heartfelt thanks to all that have wished and celebrated for me in advance today. ♡ — at Vintedge.

Thanks @lslmichelle for celebrating my 20th birthday with me today, and treating me to brunch and dessert! Most importantly, for always being my listening ear, giving me the best advices, remembering little things about me, bringing and sharing with me the best makan and shopping places, and of course, for being my best friend, just like a sister. ♡♡♡

Had a great 20th birthday weekend. Celebrated for three days straight with the people I love. I just wanted to take a moment to thank everyone for all the birthday wishes. Its has been a great start of my twenties!

Still haven't got used to the fact that I'm no longer a teenager. Twenty feels like a neither-here-nor-there age. Just graduated from school, started venturing into the adult working life, no longer a teen but not yet a legal adult. Still clueless about how my future is going to become. At least I know my occupation. I've found the answer to all the "What do you want to be when you grow up?" questions since young!

Still remember my mum asked me at what age I would like to get married. I was quite young at that point of time, I suppose lower primary/kindergarten. And I answered, SIXTEEN. Well, at the age, sixteen seems like a long way to go. And now, I'm four years away from it. So if I were to answer this question again, my ideal marriage age would be 26 - 28. Lets check back in six years time okay? If I still remember.
