Story time !
" I came upon this product a year back when i was scrolling through Instagram and saw an Ad of this from the Malaysian artist herself. And of course, research after research, i ended up getting it online for $40. Since, i'm a student, still schooling and all, it was a huge amount of money spent just getting this tub. So it better work. 
First impression, tub was okay, not as big as i imagined but not as small as i thought it would be. Plus, the collagen powder was pretty full with the  pink scoop in it. Taste really nice, its a mixture of berries and sweetness. First try, i fell in love with it. Subsequent days the taste keeps getting sweeter and sweeter, but no complains there. Maybe since i drink lesser soft drinks and started drinking more plain water that my taste buds became more sensitive to sweetness. Weeks passed, and results were fairly slow. Skin became more moist but the acne scars i have has yet to disappear. Miss one scoop and skin will be dry again.
After 3rd week, i stop using it altogether. Due to lack of commitment i guess.
Recommended for those really commit to try this product and give their 100%. "

Audela

Price : SGD 80 (About Audela)

A tub contains 30 sachets.
Right way of practicing :

1. One sachet 30 mins before breakfast and one sachet after dinner. OR

    One sachet for 1 day

2. Mix a cup of water and pour the powdery substance in - its easy

3. Drink a lot of Plain mineral water for maximum effect

4. Soon you'll be rushing to the toilet!

Story time !
" Audela gave me a hard time, in terms of whether i should get it or not, because of it's price. But ofcourse, after a fairly long research and consideration. I managed to get a tub of 13 sachets for a resonable price with free delivery, which wasn't that bad - online purchase, something like a trial use, seller wasn't using them anymore. 
First impression, Tub was slightly bigger than K-Colly with only sachets inside. The day that i got it, that night i just had to try it, it taste pretty awful at first, mixture of berries and some herbal medicines. Than i came to realise that 1 sachet was too much for a cup of water. So since than ive been consuming half a sachet before breakfast and the other half after dinner. First try, i didn't really thought much about anything good with this product. But the next few days onwards, ive been consistently going to the toilet to take a dump. Yarp, it was a burden at first, but what came after that was just awesome. My skin improved after 3 days of consuming, and weeks on, from 4 months pregnant, it became to 1 month - belly fats ofcourse! Preggys and menses period are not recommended to consume it BTW!
Since me, just being me. I had a hard time being committed on drinking it on time and seldom missed it. But nothing changes, in terms of skin or weight. It's definitely one of the best collagen, but a pricey one. But will purchase a tub again soon! 😻
Recommended for those who doesn't mind going to the toilet every 20 mins or take a dump in public restrooms"

To that "Ordinary Girl"

You claimed to be not just any ordinary girl, and i beg to differ, but you're just another ordinary girl that needs loads of attention. I was very welcoming and kind to you. I thought we could be close. I thought we were close, but i guess not. Over time i realized how much of a two-faced you are. When you had a couple fight, it was horrible. I had to witness the event unfolding and the atmosphere changing. I tried comforting you but i guess you didn't appreciate it enough, i got scolded and had a fight over it with my not so dear, sweet boyfriend when he knew about it. The amount of hate that was spreading was overwhelming. Did you know about that? Of course not, you didn't care. As time passed did you even take the time or effort to ask me, "How i was?"  "What was my number?"  "What you're doing now?", through any social medias, etc. No. You can do that to the others but of course not me right, who was i to you. Everyone may have forgiven you, i may have forgiven you. But i have lost Respect for you.

Ingrown Toenail

Here's my own experience with "Ingrown Toenail"
*Warning, may bore you out.

Ingrown Toenails Facts

This is a painful condition of the toe. It occurs when a sharp corner or edge of the toenail digs into the skin at the end of or side of the toe. Pain and inflammation at the spot where the nail curls into the skin occurs first. Later, the inflamed area can begin to grow extra tissue or drain yellowish fluid.

1. If left untreated, an ingrown toenail can progress to an infection or even an abscess that could require surgical treatment.

2. Ingrown toenails are common in adults and adolescents but less common in children and infants. They are more common in men than in women. Young adults in their 20s or 30s are most at risk.

3. Any nail can become ingrown, but the condition is usually found in the big toe.

What Causes an Ingrown Toenail?

1. Tight-fitting shoes or high heels cause the toes to be compressed together and pressure the nail to grow abnormally.

2. Improper trimming of toenails can cause the corners of the nail to dig into the skin. Nails should be trimmed straight across, not rounded.

3. Disorders such as fungal infections of the nail can cause a thickened or widened toenail to develop.

4. Either an acute injury near the nail or anything that causes the nail to be damaged repetitively (such as playing soccer) can also cause an ingrown nail.

The Story

Yes, me and my "Improper trimming of Toenail" had led me to suffer for several Months. Why months? Because i thought it would "heal" on it's own over time and it wasn't such a big thing then (early november 2016). But sadly, i thought wrong.. apparently. Image

No one else knew except for my sister, why i didnt tell my parent? Cause i didnt want to add my toe problem onto their shoulders and make them worry, after ofcourse, getting a good scolding ugh. It was wholly my fault, i do blame myself, and i just wanted to get it done with.

" If it truly is an Ingrown Toenail, Google is not your friend. Doctor is. "

My biggest mistake was to leave it be. With numerous lectures, scoldings and fights over this with my not so dear, sweet boyfriend who came to know about it at that point, he agreed to accompany me to the clinic.

Since i was paying the fees on my own, i had to look for a more affordable but trustable clinic in Singapore, and dear it took a load lots of courage for me to even step into the clinic after all the research on the surgery removal. Anyways, after 6 shots of Anesthetic and still feeling the pain, urgently wanting it to be removed, i went along with the surgery and it was the most painful thing i've ever experienced (so far k). Screaming, with only my boyfriend there to witness that horrifying moment. Only god knows what was going through my mind then, LOL way too dramatic now. Image

Main point : Ingrown Toenail and Bad habits can be a beach sometimes.

Guangzhou/Hong Kong

NYP Exchange Program 13 March 2017 - 26 March 2017

Notes for upcoming batch:

1. Reimburse of Payments

2. Hostel Room for Girls Level 3, Boys Level 2

3. School cards with $$ inside given when arrived, use as allowance for food but mostly hot water for showers

4. Muslim students advised to bring enough dry food for 2 weeks, recommended can food or instant noodles

"When my classmates applied for Beijing, i applied for Guangzhou/Hong Kong with 2 close friends of mine. My supposedly roommate didn't get it due to reasons. And i was arranged with someone else. It was honestly something i didn't thought i would actually do and was hestitant throughout the process for the trip. But eventually i overcame the fear and think positive, it would be nice to experience it once in a lifetime, going on an exchange programme trip to China since i would never imagine myself ever stepping foot there ever. The SIT's and SCL's went together for this trip so there were 26 students total. SIT had 16 students and SCL had 10 students & a teacher each. As the only malay student for SIT it was abit of a challenge, i had to make friends with the other group of malay students from SCL and though it was rough at first, i would say it was worth it."

"The time came, and i was really nervous and excited. Flight no. SQ 850 (4hours flight), service was excellent, not much to say. Had the 2 window seats for myself since my neighbour decided to switch places and it was nice, what else was i to do then to read my ever so ready kindle. LOL. The custom there was packed jam and fairly slow, it took another 2 hours for the whole thing including baggage collection. When we went out, Panyu Polytechnic teacher and rep students were waiting for us. Grabbed some light snacks for the 2hour bus ride and off we went. When we reached the school's hostel it wasnt the same as what was shown during the briefing but the room i got was in excellent shape. Wifi router was exactly in that room and it was bigger then i expected, with a mini fridge, a kettle, free rubber slippers, 2 cup noodles, 2 sinks, a pillow for each bed, and others seen in photo above. Anyways, dinner wasnt that pleasant but no complains there, i was in China. After dinner, we had a short tour around the school and with that day 1 was down."

"Bus driver drop us off @ Shiqiao Station and my friends and i went to TeeMall, apparently there wasn't much interesting stuff there. Trust me, too many malls around that area with high standard pricing. But we had to split up since me and another wanted to watch a movie (guess what? Beauty and the Beast! *Screaming) and the others wanted to go back to Shangxiajiu to do more "Shopping". The cinema there was ever the same as Singapore's but for the price it's actually not so bad and there wasn't any digital film so we had to watch it in 3D. I'm not so sure about the other movies there but the one that we watched was in normal English Dub with Chinese Sub, thank god. So the day went by fast and omg just imagine being out the whole day, 9am - 9pm, and with only breakfast and popcorns and starbucks. -sigh "

FREE TIME!

"Halal breakfast was provided in the hotel and had a last minute plan with the SCL girls to go... 

Disneyland! Was impromptu since i wasn't feeling like going shopping anymore, so it was either Disneyland or staying in the hotel for the whole day. But ofcourse when you're overseas you shouldn't ever just stay in the hotel, especially in Hong Kong cause you'll be missing out the fun. Place was huge and magical, with good companies and lots of photos and videos to keep as memory. It was overall the greatest decision i've ever made to go on this trip."

Day Dream

While she stared out of the window from where she sat, she wondered if there was a star out there looking in on her, looking out for her. She dreamed of flying, soaring like the winds that floated free and safe from all.

Betrayal Kills

She gasp at what she saw and for that she felt betrayed as though all the things she had given was a waste. She reads and though he told his reasons, the things that was displayed can never be erased, same goes to the memories they had together. Now she wondered if this is what life really is, reality pushing and pulling you in all directions but you still have nowhere to go and only your own reflection to face. 

He begged and begged, and was ignored but kept on spilling reasons on what she saw. She cried and cried till her heart felt light for emptiness filled in faster than the fright. 

She wanted to fall and fall till she breaks her wall for life didnt gave her the path she wanted. But soon she sees that everything could be different in a way that was what she desired. She reached with both hands and pulled with all her strength, thumbling down he came crying. He begged for trust and all of the past but only saw a plain canvas in drawing.

the end.
