what's your fashion style?

I stumbled onto this fashion style sorting quiz site labelled What is your style type?
In just 10 questions, they managed to figure out my style just like this.
How awesome is that?

According to the quiz, i'm..
10% Classic
10% Chic
30% Whimsical
30% Bohemian
20% Avant Garde




All these years, I have been struggling within, to describe my style, and this website did it effortlessly.
Impressive.
I struggle, because I firmly believed that I'm a little of everything - which technically kinda makes me a shape shifter/ chameleon right?

There's probably one more combination that the website failed to capture...
my penchant for the retro pin up era / shanghai tang look just to add to my whimsical quirk look.

Alright, adios for now!

Off days

I pushed myself pretty hard at work, the past week. 
Off the record, I try to do work everyday,
Even if it's weekends, it does wonders to counter inertia for me. 

Today happens to be one of those "off" days. I woke up, slothed around, and didn't manage to accomplish anything in particular.

Checked email..
Had lunch.. 
Mostly pastries from PS cafe with complements from Le boyfriend. 

Bread... Sweet things... Salty things...


Felt oozy, and fell back asleep. 
Pastry coma?
InWoke up in the evening and rushed out of the house to run some errands that I haven't gotten round to. 
Besides walking off the afternoon sleep,  seems like a good idea. 

Rushed out together with le boyfriend, and he applauded me for my record time. 
10 minutes to make up, dress up and leave the house.
Ooh I hate that sort of feeling. 
I'm typically the 2 hours, walk around and take my own sweet time sort of girl

As I hit the malls, the realization hit me on my feet.


Le sigh
How and why is it that I only notice my footwear after I set foot into Ion orchard? 

Errr.. Luckily they were both silver? 
And the flatties are of the same height. 

Well I got myself new footwear and went about with my business.

That is to Walk off all that energy, and to do some shopping.

Well that must have worked. 
I reached home and fell asleep AGAIN. 

Work up to roast some chicken, ate it up, and kept dropping stuff (food) on the floor, and bumping into things randomly in the house.

The dog is happy tonight from random food scraps on the floor. 
Luckily, damage wasn't so bad, as she's the sort that ask for permission before she attacks food that lands on the ground.

In anycase, I figured that today's klutz day is really my brain's way of declaring that it needs a break. 

And now it's time for bed, and when I wake up, it's back to "on" days please! 

Goodnight.

Behold the toothpaste!

I woke up this morning and the boyfriend announced to me fairly pleased, in his I warned you about it yesterday face...

"There's no more toothpaste."
"I've squeezed the last bit of it onto my toothbrush" with a slightly smug serious face.

He proceeds to show me the 'remnants' of the tube of toothpaste displayed on his toothbrush.

I'm hardly a morning person. 
Retrieving a new box of toothpaste takes up too much of me. 
Like seriously. 
In my head, The extra 30 steps to the store and the 30 steps back to room is too much for me to handle.

As I picked up the old squeezed out tube and peered into the tube to assess the situation, DL said... "Why don't you believeeee meeee? "

I looked at him with my best morning disdainfully disbelief look, unscrew the dispensing cap of the tooth paste, and 
Squeezed out double the amount (of what he had) onto my toothbrush and laughed.
"look, more than yours!" with a smug smiley face..."

We laughed and now he thinks I'm some stingy crazy slave driver that doesn't even let the toothpaste hold onto its last bit of its content.

I conclude Toothpaste utility skill
Daphne 2 : Dilun 1
*clapclapclapclap*
Hahaha. 

Never underestimate the power of laziness. It really does trigger some really critical thinking. 
Besides those frugal lifestyle hacks circulating on Facebook does come in handy. 

I just sent this picture to DL while he's at work. 

Behold the toothpaste! 

Boyfriend isn't impressed.
