This container was originally S$59 but was reduced to $19 because of this crack. Honestly, I didn't notice it at first but when I did, I also didn't mind. I really don't think it's that bad. Plus, a reduction of $40 is pretty darn good.

 So this is how my desk looks like, for now :)
Can't wait to browse through!

I got this expensive Açaí juice from the supermarket before the movie. I just wanted to try it out. I don't think I'll be indulging in this any time soon again.

After that, I dropped off the things at home then went out with my mom and sister to watch Pitch Perfect 2! It was so good and hilarious!! I was laughing a lot and getting goosebumps whenever the songs came on. 'Fat Amy' is my spirit animal, oh my goodness hahaha.


The sky was getting dark.
Walked to Parkway Parade after the movie. Walked around in Parkway, got some things from Daiso. Went home and got ready for bed.

That's all for today, bye!!

Jadeite is a very nice restaurant with an amazing concept. It is a buddhist family-run business where the whole family eats vegetarian. They wanted the restaurant to feel like a welcoming place; like coming home for a nice cooked meal.

The service there is one of the best I've experienced. The aunty (mother of the family) there is such a lovely woman. She started a conversation with me (in Chinese) and I managed to keep the conversation going. She asked me if I'm vegetarian/vegan and why I chose my decision. We also talked a little about religion and things. Considering that I'm rather awkward around people I'm not close to, I felt relatively less nervous around her :)

The price range is also very affordable and value-for-money.

Now, on to the amazing food!

Sambal Fish Rice (spicy)

I care a lot about animals, that's the main reason why I'm vegan.
Being vegan is more than just your diet; it's a lifestyle. So I'm making it a point to stop buying animal-tested products. Ideally it would be best to buy products which have not been tested on animals and do not contain animal ingredients, but I'm still on the hunt for such products. If you know of any good vegan, cruelty free brands do comment down below :) 

In the meantime, I've only found cruelty free items.
Just a reminder to myself and vegans out there: there's no need to bash yourself for not being a 'perfect' vegan. I think that the fact that you have empathy and compassion is commendable and awesome! And remember that veganism is a journey, not a destination :)

I posted this on my old blog but since that blog is no longer available, i decided to bring it over to this blog. I got this around Christmas last year (2014), before I went vegan.

Etude House's products are not tested on animals however some of their products do contain animal ingredients.

Without further rambling, here's the haul:

Add olive oil into yeast mixture.
Make a well in the pizza dough mix and pour the yeast mixture.
