CROWNED IN VICTORY
Charm is deceptive and beauty disappears, but a woman who honors the LORD should be praised. -PROV. 31:30

Hey guys, so it has already been 20 days since I wrote a post on my blog.
I had just came back from my Singapore trip yesterday and today I will write an overview about my trip!
I will do a separate post on places that tourists MUST GO.
So, this post is basically my personal travel to Singapore!
Let's get started!!
When, Where,and Who?
I planned to go for a visit to Singapore with my brother initially but it didn't work out. Haha
Singapore is actually my second country because my uncle's family live there and I will visit them once in a while.
Since the plan didn't work out, I was like . Forget about it~
But, before my SPM , there was this friend of mine, she is one of my classmate.
Let's call her SY shall we.
So, she told me about her plan to go to Singapore and she didn't want to go alone.
I was like ! *light bulb on my head*
You know and we agreed to go together and all.
I would honestly say that SY is not one of my closest friend. But she is a good friend of mine.
We would do something together that no one else would. You know?
So we started listing places that we would like to go.
There there, we solved the Where and Who part.
When, obviously we are going after our SPM!
We tried to search for cheapest flight but it's not actually that cheap because we only bought the tickets a month before I guess.
So, here's the biggest tip. Always buy your tickets early! If you happen to found cheap tickets, JUST DO IT! Purchase it man! Haha
Don't miss and regret it later on.
We bought our tickets from Jetstar and they offer like RM4XX including taxes to and fro.
I would actually prefer a bus rather than a RM4XX flight ticket actually.
But oh well, it's not like it's an everyday thing.
We actually went there for 7 days .
This is my first time going on a trip and out of my country with a friend and no adults! Yay~
I wouldn't say it is a FREEDOM thing but rather, I would put this trip as an EXPERIENCE .
I stayed at YS's aunt's place and they we're very friendly.
We are not interested in any of the animal park or zoo neither do we interested in aquarium and such. Because we are on a tight budget and we didn't want to spend much on these stuff.
Ah, such youngsters nowadays.
So, we went to the most famous attraction in Singapore, which is the Universal Studio !
But it actually rained heavily there. But it was all fine because we almost finish riding the top fun rides there.
There are amazing stuff that you shouldn't miss there and stuff you might just want to let it go.
I will write on another post for it I guess =D
And , just a warning, Singapore will most likely to rain during December month.
And next, crazy sales is all over especially during Christmas month!!
I actually spend quite a lot because it is QUITE cheap if you don't convert it to MYR ! Hehe
I brought around $6XX to Singapore and came back with only $2XX.
I was not quite much of spending because transport and some of the food was not paid by me.
I bought chocolates, bag, shoe, clothes,accessories and also decorations!
Before going for a trip, do search for places that offer good prices and also quality.
Unless you don't mind paying a high price~
In Singapore, transportation is not a burden because they have MRT,LRT, buses, taxi and all. So , we just get the transport card that can be use for MRT,LRT and also buses and off we go.
If you ever go to Singapore during holiday session , the city is crazy!
People is everywhere you go!
I am getting sleepy now, so I will pen off for now ~
Stay tune for my following post for more Singapore trip.
Good night! and God bless.

Today, I will be sharing some the DIYs I did for organizing and also to make your room looks prettier and more lively I would say.
When I am younger, my dream is to have a nice princessy room.
So, I would say my dream came true! All the ideas and furniture that I am going to show you are basically my own ideas.
Of course with some help on the Internet and also some imagination !
The theme for my room, is PINK. Pink is my favourite colour since young..
I would say that I am very loyal person. If pink is my favourite colour, Pink is it!
Sometimes, I had some hard time deciding whether to buy Milo Ice or Soya Bean during recess in school. But I would tell myself to stay loyal to Milo Ais~ So I end up buying Milo Ice.. Does that even make sense to you? Maybe.
So, let me show you part of my room because the other part I didn't bother to decorate .. It is just a bed and gigantic wardrobe and a cosmetic table.
Here you go,
    
So, I told my mum I wanted a pink colour for my room when we repaint our house, but I ended up picking this colour.. Blossom. It is slightly purple but still pink..
Next, I wanted a white furniture to fit in. Pink and white. Isn't it wonderful?
So, I got these 2 furniture, a study table and a book shelf in white.
The price was around RM250-350 each, I couldn't remember exactly..
But yeah, the study table is waterproof. As in the wood will not absorb water and become blotted. I am not sure what is the correct term.. But yeah,
And next, a LED table lamp that cost more than the study table itself.. >:O
Coming to DIY.
I got this wall sticker of the Eiffel Tower and I stick them to the wall myself..
I arrange the base of the tower exactly on my table if you get what I mean.
So at least it looks like Eiffel Tower is standing on the table rather than floating .. Haha
 
For this pencil stand, I wouldn't say I make them myself because it is just a paper cup and I innovated it and just throw in some stationary. To make it more stable, use 2 paper cups and stack them together. You can go ahead and decorate the cups with some doodles or just wrap them with some colour papers or wrapping papers. But I like it simple.. and you can say I am lazy hahaha!
To make them more stand out and prettier , simply use some clips to clip them on the cup itself. I have these whole lot of cute clips and so I make full use of them.
All of these stuff I got them from Gurney, Material Shop.
All you need is some twines, clips and some pictures.
If you don't have pictures , you can use some nice postcards like how I did it or even copy paste some nice pictures on the net and print them out.
Initially, I wanted to make this main stream kind of wall decor with pictures.
But for this, you will need to drill or rather nail some nails on the wall for the thread to stay put
So, I wanted some fuss free and if you nail them on the wall, and one day you might want to make over your room, the nails will be very ugly unless you innovate them with something new.
For me , I just use some tapes and tape the threads on top of my book shelf and tada! you have them in vertical form!
I bought the twines, clips and this mini Eiffel tower from Gurney, Material Shop.
Initially, I didn't know what to do with this mini Eiffel Tower because it comes in a packet like this. So, I have this idea to just tie it to the end of the twine.
At least the twine will have some weight to stay put.
In the book shelf, I have these wooden organizers that I made myself in school
If you study in Malaysia, during Form 1-3 , you will need to make these yourself and volla !
I didn't want to throw them away because it is so pretty and I adore my art of work and so I use them.
 
Coming next! I use to make these paper stars when I am young and I just store them up in some glass containers. You can buy a huge glass containers at SnJ and it cost like RM50+ I think. So, I just reuse some milk bottles and candy bottles.
Accessories organizer,
  
Reuse your Ferrero Rocher's box and turn them into a accessories organizer.
Put some earrings and necklaces. You can definitely wrap the box if you want.
And the last one, this is the fragrant reed diffusers.
Get them in different fragrant and unique bottle and sticks which can be serve as decorative purposes.
That's about all for today.
Camp in another few days and Singapore trip in another 1 week plus!
GOOD DAY!
P/S: Want more DIYS ? Find them in Google! Tons and tons of nice DIYS that you can find !

Hi guys, as I promised, I will write about my school's prom today.
Let me give you some glimpse of what happen exactly during the day itself before I share how to prepare for prom.
I would say it was a disaster for me going to a prom for the first time.
I have my piano lesson in the afternoon and went back home around 4.30pm
I went to the saloon at 5pm and it took more than an hour for my hairdo and makeup.
I was very rush for me and I had to ran back home to change up and get ready.
I literally forgot most of the stuff that I should do.
I forgot the take my camera,putting on my perfume,wearing a necklace.
Cool ain't it? A perfect lesson for me.
By the way, the major disaster have yet to come,
I basically have 2 pairs of high heels and bought it quite some time ago.
I don't usually wear it unless I have to because .. not to say I hate wearing it.
But I neither like it too.. I personally prefer sandals and slippers over high heels although I know it is pretty and all..
So, half way done the road, my high heels broke! I was thinking.. Am I filming a drama right now? Too bad the prince wasn't there ~ hahaha
So, I ran up to my house and get another pair of it..
Yeah, that's about it and let's get started.
1.PROM DRESS
Pick your prefect prom dress. But before that, check out some videos on Youtube to know which prom dress suits you best according to your own body. Doesn't mean that a girl wearing a beautiful prom dress can look pretty in it. Get me? Check out which necklines,length of the dress suits you more.
Then, know your budget! Don't waste time searching for some pretty dresses that you can't afford! There are tons of dresses that are pretty and cheap too!
There are 3 ways to get a prom dress.
Buy from a shop(mall),online shopping,lend from someone.
own experience...
I bought mine from an online seller and I know it is quite risky to buy it online because some measurements are just not right when you receive it and the quality might not be very good too. So if you planed to buy it online, do make sure than you got the right measurements and all so you won't regret and all. Plus, don't buy last minute(online shopping). At least if it turns out not how you want it to be, you will still have some time to buy it at the mall!
I bought mine a quite a cheap price I would say, because some of my friends bought at RM180 and all.. and I got mine at RM80 only.
2.PROM SHOE
.jpg)
Same goes for this. I would say, pick a pair of high heels and not wedges.
But if you already have one and STILL IN GOOD CONDITION, then just wear that to prom.
Unless you are super rich then go for it and get a new pair.
Picking the right colour of heels is also an issue and it depends on the colour of your dress.
For instance, if your dress is white colour, go for a darker colour like black for your heels.
CONTRAST is the key. But of course, don't pick a pink heels if you wear a green dress.
Search up in Google and there are tons of websites to guide you to choose the right colour.
Make full us of the Internet ! Haha
For the height of the shoe, it depends on the height of your prom date too.
You wouldn't want to be taller than your prom date don't you? =)
3.PROM DATE
Get your boyfriend, friend or just someone!
I don't think it is a necessary thing to have a prom date.
But having one would be nice too!
own experience ..
Get a date, get discount! Haha! For my school prom, it cost RM100 for the ticket and RM90 if you bring a prom date. And of course, cheaper is better ! Haha~
Cut the story short, I got my friend to find a guy friend of hers as my prom date.
We didn't know each other. We just went for the sake of cheaper price and all.
But of course, it is just like making a new friend and all.
4.MANICURE AND PEDICURE
.jpg)
I wouldn't say it is a must. But it is better and fun to have it on!
You can do it your own or just go to the shop and they will do it for you!
Remember. Have the colour match with your dress!
I don't have own experience for this though haha! I personally don't do manicure or pedicure. I have this bad habit of picking my nails.. Not biting! I know I should somehow stop this habit of mine. But, it is just too difficult.. but I like that way, I don't like having long nails . So I will cut my nails whenever I felt that my nails are long and all.
5.HAIRDO AND MAKEUP
.jpg) .jpg)
Do it yourself or have the stylist to do it for you!
own experience..
I am not good at both, so I had the stylist to do it for me!
Remember to consider whether are you dancing or not to prevent your hair from falling out of place !
I finally learnt how to braid myself and now I am tempting to buy some makeups and try it on myself.
Cos going to the shop and have it done there is too pricey and all.
I prefer no makeup makeup look because it looks more natural and I hate fake eyelashes!
I remember that the stylist put it on for me and I teared.
It was personally view again, I dislike having it on because it somehow looks very plastic and fake and cheap on me. But I know it can look really pretty on others.
Just not me I would say! Haha~
6.BAG/CLUTCH
Keep it small and simple, cos you don't want to bring a huge bag along with you during prom!
own experience..
I didn't want to buy another clutch for this prom so I went ahead a use what I have.
I wasn't too big and it can fit quite a number of stuff.
Here are some stuff you MUST have in your bag/clutch..
 Ticket to prom 
Some bobby pins just in case you hair is out of place
A small camera
.jpg)
Some safety pins just in case you need it
Phone and comb
And of course some makeup to touch up your looks like lipstick, powder pact , mirror and etc.
7.ACCESSORIES
Earrings
Necklace.
Perfume.
Basically that's it! Remember to pack everything in your bag the night before to prevent havoc finding them and all! I hope you enjoy. God bless!
Me and my friends!
ADIOS!

Bonjour! Finally! Thank God I am able to complete SPM without splitting my brain into pieces the half way through. Time flies, I still remember the times that I dragged myself out of bed to school every morning because I am totally not a morning person. And how I wish I am. Dreaming to become a lady that wakes up every morning with a bright smile to greet the sunshine. Too bad. It is just a dream. Haha.
So, for these few days, I had cleaned my room, went for driving lessons and the coming Thursday is the driving test. I pray O God, that I will pass my driving test. You know, some of the things in life, you just want to go through once. And that's it. What done is done. For instance, SPM. Hahaha.
And in just another few hours, I will be attending my school's prom. YAY!
Maybe I will write my next post on my prom day and how I prepare for it and stuff.
Getting back to what I really wanted to share is a surprise blessing!
It was like last Saturday night, I came back home and 2 parcels were on my room's table.
I were so excited that I started to tear off the plastics and acted like a child rummaging her Christmas present!
I ordered my prom dress online and also a cosmetic stuff. I remembered that I checked that the cosmetic parcel.. I need to go to the post office and take it personally cos no one was home that time. But anyways.. I thought the computer system was wrong and stuff and I didn't care much.. The first one was my prom dress.. and for the second parcel..
I have this funny feeling.. there is this "FRAGILE" sticker on the parcel..Haha.
I just opened it and joy overflow in me ! Let me show you.
Tada! I remembered school so called "encouraged" every student to join this contest. It was like months ago.
It wasn't some difficult contest and all.. InkJoy had this contest that you will need to decorate the card given and write a message within 30 words about 'Writing helps me....'
So I was excited actually, the prizes are camera, pen drives,Popular voucher and some gifts.
I wanted to win the Popular voucher to buy myself some revision books to do . Haha!
But for the last few days, I wanted a new camera for my Singapore trip and also to put up some pretty pictures on my blog.
What a blessing ! It wasn't some professional or expensive camera.. but it definitely still function as a camera =)
I shall do a review on it too ! CHEERS! One wishlist is ticked off now~
By the way, my next wishlist is happening soon, I hope. Fingers crossed!
Will let you all know when it comes to past ! Haha =)
Well well. I shall sleep soon to avoid eye bags for tomorrow ^^
Praise God for the camera!

Hello there, I've stopped blogging since a few years back.
but today...
I've decided to put it back on track.
SPM(a final/major exam in Malaysia) is still on for me and I have 4 more subjects to go.
Before I start blabbing about my exam, I will do a short introduction about myself
I am a high school student and this year is my last year in high school :)
To be honest, high school to me is really fun and thrilling
I LOVE paper works and what not homeworks , do you ? haha
Friends are what makes most of us go to school
I am usually labeled as 'Miss Pink','Pink Lady','Nerd' and etc.
You're right! my favourite colour is none other than PINK.
Maybe I will write on another post on my PINK stuff....haha
So, I basically does not have an exact plan on what I am going to do for the next year
Growing up, I have different kinds of ambition.
I shall seek the Lord and ask for His guidance after my hectic days
Maybe not as hectic as you think
I would not say I am a top scorer in school or neither a genius
I am just an slightly above average student and I thank God for that
Let's talk about fun.
For the coming month, December, I will be
I will stop here for now and start my revision on my deadly subject, Add Maths
P/S: The reason I named my blog 'CROWNED IN VICTORY' because it is just too difficult for me to think of a blog name. So, I searched it up that my name means crowned in victory. It really reminds me of God the Almighty . So, it motivates me to be like Him . Righteous and wise.
