Lucky Plaza Flea !

Can't sleep right now 

in the middle of the night , so I thought I would just blog about the day where I had flea at Lucky Plaza :D ! And yes , I'M HAVING ONE WEEK OF BREAK FROM SCHOOL BECAUSE IT'S CNY HOLIDAYS I'M SO FUCKING HAPPY ♥_♥ Otherwise I would be crying and ranting on twitter about not being able to sleep already HAHAHA . 

Shopping or studies in this week of CNY holidays ? Meh , I'm choosing both ! Can't afford to fail my exams T_T

Before I blog about my flea ,

 let me just talk a bit about schooling . I'm really really glad that I've a very supportive father . People who follows me on Twitter or reads my blog will definitely know how great a man he is . When I told him that I wanna study , the first thing he said was , "No problem , let me know how much is it & I'll write you a cheque . Daddy support you" . I'm glad that I always have 100% control of decision making in life because of the abundance of freedom my father gives me . I'm glad that I'm in school right now because of my own decision and that I'm not forced into it by anyone else .

Few weeks ago

I asked my dad , "Why are you always so supportive of everything I decide to do ?" I was crying then . He said , "Aiya , what support (jokingly & looked away)" , turned back to me again and said , "Because if I don't , who will ? I'll always have faith in you ."

My siblings were shocked when 

I told them I'm gonna enroll into MDIS again . Yes , again . I studied in MDIS 2 years back , and obviously I didn't do well . Not that the school isn't good , but I've only myself to blame because I was reluctant to study . Back then , I just wanted to be in a school for the sake of it . But right now , I feel so fucking happy with my life . I feel I'm right on track , doing exactly what I want . I'm so grateful to be in school , awesome father to come home to , have dinner with him EVERYDAY (which I can't in the past because he only moved in recently) , opportunities given from Mousetrap etc etc , I'm grateful for all of that & I'm so happy (': .... 

So then , ForFleaSake

decided to give me another opportunity by inviting me as a blogger with Aurelia for the Lucky Plaza flea last Saturday ! I was so happy when my manager asked me if I wanted to take up the offer .. Not only did ForFleaSake gave me a free booth , I was given the one in the middle ! I've worked with ForFleaSake once for the annual Blog Shop Festival & that one time is good enough for me to see how professional and amazing their flea parties are ! There's not a time where working with them isn't fun & I've always enjoyed myself ♥

I started 
packing all the clothes that I wanted to sell the day before & yeap here it goes : 

Used the largest luggage I have !

Some of the pieces I sold that day .

 And when I reached Lucky Plaza
at around 12PM , one of ForFleaSake's coordinator came all the way down to bring me up to the flea location , it's really nice - because I didn't ask them to ! Oh and I was a retard because I didn't change any small change for the flea which I totally forgot /: But it wasn't really a problem for me at all (: 

I was brought
to my booth & I started setting them up , not long later Aurelia , her boyfriend & her sister came ! They had the booth beside me . Aurelia kept complaining that I'm spoiling market because I sold everything at really low prices . Basic tank tops at 50cents was sold , see what I mean ? HAHA 

The middle booth with the pink laptop is mine !

Brought my laptop
along because I was told there are power sockets there and so glad I brought it along with me ! I was listening to music , photoshopping pictures & drinking koi relaxing over at my booth LOLOL . Shiok ! 

Aurelia & I ! I swear we're like super posers , we took quite a lot of pictures with my camera and I transferred it into my computer immediately to edit after that HAHAHA .

Take pictures with her must make my eye bigger lolol , I didn't even bother photoshopping her because you tell me la which part of her face can I even photoshop seriously

Halfway through taking pictures ,
we decided to make an instavideo in hope that more people would come and visit us hahaha :

Not sure which handsome boy I was looking at HAHAHA . But a little side track , there are quite a number of male vendors there , I'm really shocked !

I seriously didn't bother to fold the clothes after that because after a few minutes , this is how my booth will look like .

But guess what ! 
Within the first two hours , not kidding really first 2 hours , most of the clothes are wiped out ! The flea at Lucky Plaza had gained so much recognition that even before the official opening time , people already start coming in before that to shop ! 

Oops ! Who's the person in the background ?

It's Parisa ! She came to visit us hahahha god knows why , but so sweet ! Isabel wanted to come visit us too , but she couldn't in the end due to time constrain ):

Funny face attack hahahha

Aurelia : "Ehhh !! My face looks the same in all the pictures" - WE KNOW RIGHT LOL

P/S : I actually already tip toe when I took this picture with them . NOT COOL TO BE SHORT LIKE ME  ):

♥

After so many pictures , 
yea you must've noticed Aurelia's face never really change at all HAHHAHA . When Parisa left , my friend Ginity came down to the flea to help out ♥_♥ !!! The first thing she did at my booth ? Starts packing the clothes and say "walao your booth so messy !" 

Ginity packing the booth for me ♥ !

♥♥♥♥

So glad she was around to accompany me ♥

Chrysan the overly attached friend . And weird shopper photobombing us hahahha

Tried to take a picture with Kent (Owner of ForFleaSake) , but his face got cut off & he blames me for being short HAHAHA

Who the fuck still takes photo with you when they're on the phone hahaha , Kent did you feel like a celebrity ? Kent is one of the people around me that I'm really thankful for (:

 Time passed damn
fast at the flea for some reason , and I can safely say that the crowd at Lucky Plaza is surprisingly constant throughout O_O I'm taken aback because people always claim that flea markets are usually only crowded at the start of it , but that day , the crowd don't stop coming in ! 

After 9 hours of starving
since I woke up that morning , I finally got to eat ! The coordinators from ForFleaSake did asked if I wanted anything for lunch though , so they're not starving the bloggers they invited ! They are not obliged to anyway . 

I headed over to
ION with Ginity & Jared (who came to find me after flea) for dinner and I was mad frustrated because I was sooooooooooooo hungry & every single restaurant in ION was packed with long queues . Peak hour , sigh what do I expect . But we finally settled down for Ginza Bairin :D ! 

 

Got myself the Cheese Croquette set !

Asked Ginity to say hi and this is what she did hahahahha

Omg right now at 5AM in 
the morning I'm really super hungry . Did I say I started blogging at about 3AM ?? SUPER HUNGRY RIGHT NOW MY STOMACH GRUMBLING . Should I go eat fried rice that my dad's girlfriend cooked or .... should I just sleep with an empty stomach ): ? Ok back to topic , will go settle my stomach later . 

Jared can't pose ! He was forced into taking a picture though hahahha by me

Copy cat somemore order same set & drink as me HAHAHA .

Had awesome dinner , 

cracked lame jokes with random conversations and headed back to my house with Ginity that night . We reached home , touch up on our makeup and this is what happened : 

These are just part of the pictures , we took so many !  

And the ugliest picture of all time ? The one below LOL super sickening I wonder why I even posed for the camera hahahaha that's not the wardrobe that my clothes are in by the way . Just shoes etc are inside .

We left my house

awhile after all that madness and headed over to Club Dream ! It's a Saturday , must enjoy since it marks the start of my CNY holidays LOLOLOL . That's an excuse but it wasn't too bad !

♥

I didn't really manage

to dance at all since I was busy trying to make sure nothing happens to that drunktard above (a mutual friend of Ginity & I) that night & Ginity was off dancing :@ :@ :@ !!!!! HAHAHA but okay fulfilling day ♥ Omg it's 6AM right now , gonna go eat & sleep - Pig at work !

Bay Market

Advertorial

Once again , it's flea time ! 

What comes up to your mind when it comes to flea markets ? ForFleaSake , the biggest flea organization in Singapore ! But this time , it's a little different because instead of the usual flea markets , ForFleaSake collaborated with the URA (Urban Redevelopment Authority) & Marina Bay for a Artisan Market !

WOW , talk about Artisan ! 

Just like flea markets , Artisan market sells all the good stuffs but the difference is that they only sell handmade , self-manufactured items & artwork . And together , ForFleaSake , URA & Marina Bay presents to you the Bay Market : 

Bay Market will be available on every second weekend of the month !

 Earlier on this weekend ,

I was invited to the Bay Market & it was such an eyeopening experience ! Just like you guys , I thought it was just another normal flea but NO . They really really live up to how a Artisan Market should be like . 

When I reached , they just set up their booths so I got to see everything before it's wiped out !

To satisfy your curiosity , 

here's a list of what the Bay Market is allowed to sell & NOT allowed to sell : 

Vintage items must be 20 years old or more omg !!!

And now , to let you guys have a sneak peek of Bay Market :D

"collecting , buying + restoring stuffs for homes brought me into this crazy idea of sharing + selling things I love or collected" as quoted from their Facebook page . I mean it's cool how they sell vintage items & stuffs that you can't find else where ... twowoodensticks 二木雑貨 , you guys should really visit their FB page !

PORTRAITS BY BRICKS AND CLOUDS ARE THE BEST I SWEAR !

Portraits

by bricks & clouds just gives me a really different feeling compared to all the other paintings . It's all unique , one and only , & it is something that I can just for a long time without getting bored and still find it catchy . Something that I would purchase and place it in my room , the most amazing thing is ? THE PRICING IS MAD CHEAP !!! #MUSTVISIT 

Minions !

Wanna create a romantic atmosphere with your partner ? Use candles !

I love these ! So vintage looking :D

I LOVE THIS BOOTH , SO MUCH TO SAY ABOUT THEM .

The owner is so nice he gave me some & honestly ,

 I didn't think much about it as these 3D cards are easily seen elsewhere . BUT TILL I OWN ONE AND OPEN IT UP MYSELF I'M LIKE WOW I'M GONNA KEEP THIS FOREVER . I'm so amazed in impressed by how delicate it could be and made with no flaws at all ... To be more impressed , they accept customizations even ! Just tell them what you want to be made 3D in the card and they would do it for you ! I really love it so much so thankful ... Visit them at thebluepocketgift.com where they have workshops and a lot more handmade gifts :D !

AND THIS ! I love it ! I love charms & I can't believe these are all handmade charms at only 80CENTS EACH .

Look how cute these are ! They also provide bracelets as seen below :D

This is something that I would definitely wear . It's too cool , I mean nobody would ever have the same thing as you do !

The charms I mentioned above

are from T.E.P.S [Two Eggplants Story] www.tepstory.wix.com/teps check them out they sell clothes too ! 

Body shampoo , hand sanitizers and more ! I do own a hand sanitizer from this booth though , it smells really great , mine is in vanilla flavor :p

Last but not least , MOFO CHILI !!!! Major love for them ! I love all the vendors there , all so friendly and humble .

What's so special about MOFO CHILI ?

They are handmade chili spread & super spicy omg !!! You would be able to keep it for a month & they have two different types of MOFO CHILI . One - DODGE THE BULLET , two - FINAL DESTINATION (as seen below) . Dodge the bullet is the one that's less spicy whereas Final destination is twice as spicy as the other one . I tried the less spicy one and I swear omfg it's so spicy my ears turned red and I could feel the heat ! 

I'm the kind that

can't take spiciness (so maybe that explains why it's so spicy to me) and I really don't like to eat anything spicy . But this one is really special , it's spicy but at the same time SHIOK . LOL I'm serious ! If you love spicy , GO FOR FINAL DESTINATION ! If not , try the Dodge the bullet . They provide testers there so you can always try first :D

Dodge the bullet (Less spicy one)

Final Destination - Spiciest !

To round things up ,

here are some of the things that I recommend you guys to buy & personally like : Go for the tupperware , portraits by bricks and clouds , handmade 3D cards , macaroon mirrors by mummy kelly's corner & charms by T.E.P.S & MOFO CHILI !

Bay Market in a

whole is really amazing . Once you're there , you immediately feel very atas like you're very up there LOL . Because all the stuffs are so delicate and exquisite , looking all so artsy and beautiful , like it's only meant for the rich yet surprisingly , all these good stuffs are sold at really low & reasonable prices ! 

I mean how often do you get to come across

 good artworks and such great items at such good deals ? Grab it while it's still there because in January 2014 , it'll probably be your last chance to visit the Bay Market ! The things sold there are suitable for people at ALL ages literally . Christmas & CNY are coming , show some love get the people around you special gifts ! It feels like an exhibit of vintage stuffs too , you don't get to see all that in Singapore anywhere . Even if you don't shop , it's still nice to see !  

Follow @ForFleaSake on Instagram & like their Facebook page HERE . 

Anyway just in case
you guys don't know how to get there , I've made a video on how to ! Watch it below :

Basically just alight at
Bayfront MRT station , exit at exit D , you would immediately see an escalator in front of you , take it & you will see another escalator , take one level up again . Once you're up , turn left walk straight towards Chanel . Once you reached Chanel , turn left & walk straight all the way till you see Gongcha/7-11 , continue walking straight , take the exit & you will see Bay Market already ! EASY ! I got to the Bay Market easily because I just go to the concierge and ask where's the Gongcha HAHAHA . Anyway , remember every second week of the month ! See you there !
