April Favourites


I've finally some time to breathe!

Been busy with my coursework over the past week and then exams. I just finished one paper and my next one isn't until the 15th so I've got myself some 'me' time before I start studying again.

April is coming to an end and I didn't get to do my March favourites just 'cause I was busy then and didn't have time to come around and write one.

So here are some of my favourite April things!

Music

EXO. I'm going to save you the trouble of having to read through my fangirl spaz and have that saved for another blog post kihkih.

That's all I've been listening to this whole month to be quite honest so yeah. End.

Movies & TV Shows

Big Hero 6! I love this movie! I think the only way to describe the movie is that it is just so so cool. And for those who've not watched it, thinking, 'How cool can a animated feature be?'.

Watch it and you'll know what I mean. I literally just went, "Wowwwwww how cool!!!????" throughout the movie. Hahahaha I really have no other way to describe the movie.

Haven't had the chance to keep up with any of the TV shows and I'm so annoyed at myself because I know they've all had their season finale (... right?) and some dumb fools have still yet to understand what spoilers are and how annoyingly horrible they are for devoted fans who have not gotten the chance to watch it. You can call me emotional or rash but it is seriously one of the few things in life that I do not and cannot comprehend about people.

Ok I'm about to go on a short rant so bear with me!!!!!

I've actually gone on a break from Twitter and Facebook because of the spoilers. Look, I understand, you're excited and YOU CANNOT BELIEVE what happened but so other people lah hello? Not everyone is able to watch it the second it comes out kan so apa kata just calm down and move on with your life. It really isn't the world's most difficult thing to be excited in your own little space and NOT ON SOCIAL MEDIA????

This is not the first time also! I've encountered so many spoilers before which have led me to not watch the show/movie at all. It's called spoilers for a reason guys... don't spoil it for anyone else. Don't ruin the experience for anyone else! I won't understand how anyone would appreciate a spoiler on their timeline. Sit down, take a breather and shut up.

Ok I've gotten that out of my system lol MOVING ON

Fashion x Shopping

I did terrible shopping damage. Because my grandmother was in London for a few weeks and she gave me a shopping spree which I appreciated terribly way too much hehe


I bought more Brandy Melville's and I swear by it, guys. The quality to it is amazing!!!!! It's so beautifully soft and it really feels like you're not wearing anything. If you're one for wild patterns and cool prints then maybe this is not for you because BM has a strong design aesthetic to them and they only adhere to plain colours and very very minimal prints like stripes and sayings. Very minimal but that just makes it brilliant everyday wear. I suggest you go and get yourself one if you're living in the UK (or anywhere else for that matter though shipping can be quite pricey). I brought my cousins there and they love it and have bought several t-shirts (they're all one size fits all kinda thing too) hahaha everytime we go in, it's almost guaranteed we'll come out with a bag. They're just on Carnaby and it's relatively very very easy to find. It's just behind Liberty's. Though I'm a bit wary about how you go on about washing these babies. I accidentally put one of my white ones with my coloured clothes and dia turun colour and I had a brief moment of wanting to cry but I gathered myself and got it together phew.

And hello ripped jeans?????? Sorry but before this I was quite doubtful about the ripped jeans look because I was like why buy ripped jeans when you can buy yourself a pair of good ones and just rip them yourself. Then I learnt there is an art to ripping your jeans without making you look like you're sad and homeless. I love them!! I have two pairs now. Though I don't think my grandmother gets it still. She was like, 'What happened???' and I said, "They memang like that, Mak Tok.......".
My dad hasn't seen it so hmmmmmm maybe keeping these aside for the time being hahahah

So yes, definitely on the ripped jeans wagon. This is the thing about me lah, I'm annoyed by it myself. I always say 'Nope, won't like it' and then forward a few months/years later and I'm all for it. Look how the Korean craze swallowed me whole!??!?!!?!?!?!!? Never say never, kids. Never.

For make-up favourites, I nabbed myself a Charlotte Tilbury lipstick in Very Victoria and it is very very very amaze. And I'm not just saying that. It really is amazing. I swear by the NARS lipsticks but they can be a bit drying so I always have to put on a layer of lip balm beforehand. But with CT, you don't have to! It really feels like a swipe of buttery goodness in the prettiest of colours. I can't wait to get some more!



I'm also back to having the Urban Decay make-up setting spray in my life and I'm wondering why I even stopped using it. It's honestly your life saviour if you like me, have oily skin and by the end of a few hours you find your make-up just gross and has moved everywhere! Especially if you're wearing foundation also. It's now my make-up staple. I also got the Naked 3 palette which is just beautiful, isn't it. It's my one and only Naked palette and I just couldn't resist myself the pretty shades and figured it'd be hella useful and very travel-friendly and save me the trouble of bringing several separate eyeshadows.


Tumblr Favourites

My Tumblr is my favourite place to simultaneously waste time and be inspired. It just exudes creativity and you find the most wonderful pictures there.

Here are some of my favourites - this has a particular theme to it just 'cause I find pictures of the water kinda pretty spectacular.









Exam season is here and so with this post, I wish everyone all the best with everything!
