This isn't a beauty related post but a headsup for those living near Toa Payoh Central area or anyone intending to go there within these few days. They're having a "pasar malam" near the library so head down there for last minute cheap Christmas buys or just to soak up the atmosphere.
I noticed the night market after walking home from my cardio class. Smelly as hell, I waltzed right into one of those pirated handphone cover stores wanting to change my screen protector straight away. Shop keeper must be holding his breath to control his fainting spells when I was conversing with him!
I've been suffering with a flapping protection sticker for the past few weeks and it was driving me craaaaaaazzzy! What better timing to do it there and then. Of course since I knew such materials can be bought online and dirt cheap prices, I insisted my over-priced $18 front and back matte screen be pasted on by the shop owner, OR ELSE! Whahaha! Desperate situations call for desperate measures. I was by then pretty sick to care much about the cost really.
I suspect the seller intentionally took his time or was stressed out at my insistence so I had too much time to burn, leading to even more spending due to my browsing the rest of his store. Can't expect me to walk too far off, what if he steals my iPhone?!!?!? Gawd!
Overall I'm really happy with my buys regardless of the cut throat prices. I'm allowing myself the mini spurge as a reward from not spending any money for an entire week haha! Defeats the original purpose of saving yes?
I love the cover already assembled on my phone in the photo best. So cute, so simple! Locks at the side with all-round coverage. And it keeps my screen protector from flapping open again! Ahhh.. simple pleasures ain't it!
Can't beat pasar malam prices when it comes to cheap phone covers. The next best thing would be getting them online which takes time, and I don't have THAT sort of luxury during the festive season. Busy busy bee!
