Stop showing off!!!

I should stop blogging about the good stuffs.
or maybe I should stop blogging all together.

but why should I stop doing something I love because people are "envy-ing" me?


Sometime ago, Miss XYZ tried to ruin my life.
My blog posts seemed to have somehow lead her to think that I lead a sweet, peaceful, wonderful pampered life. She feels that my boyfriend and I don't deserve to enjoy whatever we're enjoying now. our lives.

I know she's unhappy..
I can't teach anyone how to make themselves happy but I can tell you how I made myself happy. =)


To be happy, I work hard, really hard.

I have no money, so I went to find jobs. even if they pay me lesser than what I wanted, as long as they don't mistreat me, I would still work.

Those who remembered, 10th June was my last day as a sales associate and I worked until at night. The next morning, 11th June, I woke up super early and start work at an office in Bugis. I only had a few hours of rest.

Some people commented asked, why am I working so hard? why do I make myself suffer?
To me, it's call putting in the effort to make myself happy.

I scrim and save on lunch so that I can afford to pamper myself once in a while, on better food like salmon fish. For lunch, I normally bring my own cup noddles, sometimes even bring leftovers from dinner the day before. Leftover food, would you eat? Most of the kids my age would probably have never tasted leftovers before.

When I manage to live with only 80cents in my wallet for 4days straight, I'm very happy.
I know it makes me happy, so I don't mind eating cheap cakes and cup noodles.

see. how hard it is right?
I save the money and spend most of them on weekends when I go out with my boyfriend.
Yes you heardread it right. Sometimes I pay for my own meals but I always pay for my own shopping. I know my boyfriend doesn't earn a lot, so I use my own cash when I feel like buying anything. Almost everyone I know, thinks that I'm the kind of girl who spends parents and boyfriend money. I'm hurt. really hurt.

Whenever I say I'm broke, everyone will ask me to ask my boyfriend to get whatever I want for me. but HELLO. if I tell you I'm richer than him, would you believe? STOP thinking all girls are gold diggers. or every cute girl(me!), lives off other people!

argh. I don't care anymore. Think whatever you wanna think lah.
If you think I'm lying.. I also cannot do anything right?

Whatever it is, having money makes me happy, so does shopping. So you really got to find out what makes you happy, and start working towards it.

Nothing beats getting results for the effort you put in.

and hor.. to Miss XYZ: all couples fight lah. My boyfriend and I nearly broke up more than 5 times in the pass 35months we've been together. I didn't blog about it or never mention it doesn't mean we're all lovely dopey and always agree with each other. In fact we disagree with each other's opinion VERY often one loh..

People says 家丑不可外延.
I think it's something like that bah.
I believe that complaining to third parties whenever my relationship is on the rocks will not only not help, it'll make matters worse. So throughout the 35 months, any unhappiness I normally wait till we're alone, then trash it out with my boyfriend.

No third party involved = less problems.

oops. I got carried away. :P

How will we celebrate our 3rd anniversary?


I've talked about it to my boyfriend. and we both agreed that our camera would be put to good use, next month.

Because a part of our expenses on that day would be paid for with the money we've earned through our blogs, we're going to take lots of photos of places/things/food and post them on our blogs.

How will we spend the money we "earn" online?
Will it be fun? Will it be colourful?
Will there be love or will it be just another outing?
Aren't you all interested to know? =)

I'm so lousy.

I plan to do a lot of things today but what have I done?

Blogged 4times (not including this post)
Bought tomorrow's lunch for me to bring to office.
Paint my own nails.
Sit around and watch TV.


Those stuffs I wanna do but didn't:
Settle my selling auctions stuffs.
Add new stuffs and delete stuffs I don't want from my watch-list.
Put face mask. It's been months since I last had one, and my face looks quite bad now..
Read the magazine (the one I bought to get the free silver bag..)
Do some finance planing! Like how to save enough to get a new laptop and pay for my school fees new year. >.<

Secondlife...

I've heard so many people talking/blogging/playing secondlife. I'm really curious what's the whole deal about.

Then, I even heard that playing secondlife can give me real money!
So on Friday night, the money-faced, greedy me downloaded the game, and even created an account named Uglyfatchick Yoshikawa. (Such a cool name right?)

Yesterday was Saturday, so I thought I should take a break (after vacuuming my room and changing my bedsheets and pillow case).

I click on the game..
and you know what?

When I tried to play the game, my computer crashed 2 times! :(

First time it crashed, my computer restarted itself.
The second time, I restarted my computer and then deleted the game.

Guess I'm better off earning money thru Payperpost, Blogsvertise, Adbux & EmailCashPro.
(By the way, my advertlets account has RM$0.30! hahas.)

At least they won't crash my lousy computer. :(

uglyfatchick.blogspot.com presents..

The girl who failed terribly to act cute..



Yes. that's me!
Who else could it be?
and yes I know I look constipated or something.
I just wish I could lose some weight. I hate my chubby face! :(
They say office ladies grow fat really fast. I think it's true! It's happening to me already!
Jogging or badminton anyone?

How to save money when shopping online.

I've always wanted to buy some items from other countries.
but since I don't have the money to go oversea, I normally would look for their online shop and hope that they do international shipping.

but you know how expensive international shipping is right?
So I learn to use coupon codes!

My favorite shopping spot for deals with online coupons codes is couponchief.com.

And what's my favorite online store to shop at with coupon codes?
It's benefit cosmetics! Using the coupons I found at couponchief.com, I can get Free shipping on non-US orders over $85.

Shipping rates for benefit cosmetics to Europe & Asia (International shipping) is $4.99 plus $2.49 per item

Let's say I share 5 items with a friend, so the shipping charges would be
US[$4.99 + (5X2.49)]= US$17.44 / SG$26.16
The amount I save on shipping would be $26.16!

So remember, next time you wanna buy stuffs online, check out online coupons for coupons to save your hard earned money. =)

Celebrity Gossip

guess what? There's a brand new celebrity gossip aggregate site!

They aggregate all the gossip and allow their users to vote on it and leave comments!
How cool!!

I mean we all read/hear about celebrity gossip everywhere.
On news, on newspaper, on magazines, in the office, on the train, in the bus, and now on a website! =)
For the latest celebrity gossip, do visit celebritygossip.com.

I went there and found many new gossip which I can share with my friends. =)
The best part? I get to vote on the gossip and rate them!!!

There's even a gossip search widget thingy that you can use to search for gossip!
They even have some HongKong/Taiwan/Japan/Korea artiste in there! I'm sure this is gonna be so much more fun then talking about what we see in magazine only.

Hip-hip-hooray for Hottest and latest celebrity news! ;)

Michelle looks werid..

Have you ever notice how she looks like on magazines, nowadays?

check this out!

I just found an awesome website that features unsigned chart with free music downloads!

New Music Charts at tourdates.Co.UK.

tourdates.Co.UK, Britains fastest growing new music website, has launched a chart for unsigned bands.

The site allows new bands to upload promotional tracks, announce gig dates and create profiles to promote themselves alongside major artists such as the Artic Monkeys and The Twang.

Tourdates Jarrod Robinson says, there are some fantastic unsigned bands in the UK and we wanted them to know how much our community likes their music, an unsigned chart seemed the perfect answer.

Chart results are announced on the site at 19:00 every sunday, the sametime as the No1 single of the week is announced on BBC's radio 1.


Now unsigned bands has a place to get noticed!
Why don't we have these kinda stuffs in Singapore?
It's definitely way better than going thru some contest that make people waste money on voting and then within a few months, people forget about them.. All those money are better off for charity!

mailboxixchange.com

In Singapore, our mailboxes looks just like our flats.

In other countries, like America, their mailboxes look like this:

Photo taken from mailboxixchange.com.

There's even a website selling mailboxes!
Mailboxixchange.com sells high quality mailboxes. Not only do they sell residential mailboxes, they also sell commercial mailboxes!

They have more than 1500 mailbox and curbside decor products for sale! so cool right?
In Singapore, my mailbox is the same as my neighbour's. so boring..

I looked thru the site and found many adorable ones.
Here are my top 3 choices..

1. Good Directions Steamer Trunk Copper Mailboxes
Don't you think it looks like a treasure chest?

2. Coronado Mailboxes with Polished Brass Accents and Locking Option
I think it's cute! and I like the locking option =)

3. HouseArt DaVinci Post Mount Mailboxes
DaVinci???

Do you know how to be a spy?

On TV, spies are always portrayed as.. highly intelligent.
I want to be regarded as highly intelligent too.
So one of my dreams while growing up, is to be a spy.


What do you see when you think of spy? I'm sure special equipments and dangerous missions is in your list.


The other day, I was day-dreaming that I'm a spy and I receive a very dangerous mission. In order to successfully accomplish the mission without revealing my true identity, I had to think of the tools to use, and what to do to hide my identity.

I came up with 2 new identity.
One is to dress up as a cute little girl, the other is to disguise as an old lady.
I'll have earrings that could turn into mini "smoke-bomb", hairpin that could use to open locks, glasses with special magnifying glasses hidden somewhere and "wonder-bra", that can use to hide more devices inside. aren't I smart? :P


Anyway, if you rather watch real intelligent spy show, check out a USA Network's new TV series, Burn Notice.

Starting June 28th Michael Weston, a CIA Operative, will have to accomplish a similar task! To find out how he does it, please visit USA Network's Burn Notice website.
