CHOPPER and the notebooks (〃・∀・)/♥

Our A levels are fast approaching and so, the school
organized the usual motivational talk to get us hyped up
...for studying.
(Which is a paradox in itself)
Anyway, Mr. Paul Chow suggested that we purchase new notebooks-
-to you know, get a fresh start on note-taking... or something like that.
Mr. Paul Chow said it worked for him so I decided, hey why not?
I've got nothing to lose.
I went to Popular that weekend (after my celebrating my
niece's -i feel so old! xD- Birthday -at my Uncle's Semi-D house. Which is so,
so pretty.
)
Chopper is everywhere. D:
Since, my dad was paying
I grabbed a couple of stationaries
along with the notebooks.
The pretty-pretty rainbow coloured one
you see above is for GP. (initially, it was for Literature but
I realized it was too small for my big mindmaps :P)
Usually, for GP, I like to take down either critical quotes
or chunks of stylishly wirtten arguments. And the size is perfect
for that kind of note-taking. (brims with happiness - i have no idea why
I'm so happy that I found a prefect GP notebook. xD)
The huge sketchpads there (sadly
) aren't for drawing
- my dad was kept giving me suspicious looks. He was like, "Are you
sure,
you're going to use those for
studying?"
xD.
It's got this nice leathery texture but I can't stand the plain black covers.
My sis brought back these really cute stickers she purchased from some store at ION Orchard.
It's absolutely adorable, so I bugged her to get me some too. xD
Then, I'll have polished black leathery not-so-plain-anymore notebooks with
cute stickers.

Bedroom Makeover (・ω・)ノ☆

(Re) Reading: The Handmaid's Tale by
Magaret Atwood ,
Listening: Here We Go Again by Demi Lovato(Reposted from LJ :3 -YES! I'm B~ack!)Recently, my sister suggested that we should re-paint the bedroom.
And since, I was really tired of the old, pale purple and pink horizontal stripes that
dad had painted like
five years ago...
I had a HOORAYHOORAY
moment and immediately agreed.
(My mum insists that it's purple and pink but it looks
more like purple and purple honestly xD)
The job of 'Paint Colour Picker' was then entrusted to me! Ohohoho~
I wanted a
vertically striped PINK
room (awesome, i know)
and chose the prettiest shades of pink. Well... actually, it's not really the
prettiest shades.
The shop had a seriously limited colour pallete to choose from.
I initially chose this flamingo-ish pink colour
but then-
-dad went like, "No.
That's gloss... "
Me: ....Oookay.
(Soooo, he doesn't like glossy walls...)
Dad: It's for wood surfaces.
Me: Oh.
Dad: ...
Me: Can we use this to paint the wooden wardrobes then?
(I've been wanting to paint them white since forever ;_;)
Dad: ಠ_ಠ /glareglare/ Choose another colour. ( translation: NO.)
Me: ಥ_ಥ
And so, I chose another colour.
My sis and I spent the whole Saturday painting the room.
She painted most of it actually. I mostly helped to measure draw out the vertical stripes.
Anyway, it was well worth it in the end!
(Behold the pink-iness. haha.)
What's on the other side of the room, you say?
(cue suspense music DUN DUN DUNNN)
