Someone Wants to Buy My Bra



On 17th of June 6.48pm, I received a Facebook message from someone named Amber Lau Shin Yi expressing her interest in buying my second hand clothes. I found it rather odd coming from a stranger as we weren't even friends on Facebook. But then again, she could have been my blog reader or Facebook follower as most contents on my profile are on public setting.


I have sold some of my clothes to followers before, so I thought this could just be another genuine transaction?

I politely replied and asked if there was any dress in particular that caught her attention. I thought there must be a reason why she chose to buy my clothes in the first place. Why me? Why not other girls? And which dresses does she want from me? Normally the buyers would state which specific outfit or what kind of design they are seeking for.

Her reason of buying my clothes: she is SAVING UP TO BUY A HOUSE!

Wow, when you want to save up and buy a house, buying someone else's old clothes sound like a brilliant idea!



Without wanting to judge her logic or to doubt her intention, I decided to screenshot a few of my Instagram photos and sent to her. These photos are publicly accessible and free to be viewed by anyone, hence if this person turns out to be a fraud, I have nothing to lose. 

I sent her 4 photos, out of which she claimed to be interested in 2. That's 50% success rate, I thought. Not too bad for the first batch. Feeling motivated, I decided to screenshot more. Maybe this could be a new effective way of reducing my credit card debt! 

And so I sent like 10 more photos.



Amber sounded pleased. Because all my clothes are so pretty ^^



Then comes the deal breaker part.

She requested to buy my bras!

What the hell? 

Okay maybe at this point of time you still think it was a genuine request and that she was indeed buying my bra in order to save up to buy a house wtf. But let me analyze it from my point of view on why i started to feel suspicious.

1. She is not my Facebook friend.
And she did not attempt to add me although she claimed to be interested in my clothes. When you want to buy someone else's clothes you tend to want to understand that person more. (Like what if I have skin disease or something? Or maybe I have the habit of wearing my clothes repeatedly without washing them?)

2. She did not mention how she came across my profile.
Blog? Instagram? Random Facebook followers? On usual circumstances people would mention.
And how long has she been observing me? What exactly it is about my clothes that attracted her attention? I did not see any justifiable reason that she was genuine from the things she had said thus far.

3. Our mutual friends are super random, without a common group. 
And most of them are girls. Girls whom I assume are 'her' used-to-be-victims or new prey. For all I know she could be sending the same message to many other girls, hoping that at least a few would fall for it. 

4. There is nothing much going on in her profile.
There are only photos of herself on her Facebook. I did see one or two photos of her with others but those were from several years ago. Besides, her timeline is flooded by spam posts. Give her the benefit of doubt for not having taken photos with others, maybe I just didn't see because we are not friends on Facebook. But who in the right mind would let their timeline be contaminated by tags from online sellers? Fakers who want their profile to seem real with more activities going on perhaps?

5. Who the fuck wants to wear someone else's bra?!
Ask any girl you know. It is disgusting! That girl might have BO or nipple discharge or something you never know! (Not that I have any -.-) Besides, girls don't share the same cup size idiot. Even if she thinks I am a definite A, the measurement might not be the same. No matter how poor and desperate a girl is, she would rather buy a pasar malam bra than buying someone else's used bra!



Despite the many reasons that has confirmed my suspicion, I played along with Miss 'Amber' my supposedly used-bra buyer.

I requested for an advance payment!



And I even offered my panties. Because why not the whole package? Teehee.

She refused to buy my panties though, thinking that it is unhygienic. Sigh :(



Anyway Amber said she doesn't mind transferring the advance payment so she asked for my number. I think she meant my account number? Lol.

She asked how much does it cost and she said she hopes that I am not pranking. This frauder couldn't have sounded more genuine wow I was almost convinced that she was an innocent girl saving up to buy a house!


And for a flick second I thought she would actually bank in some money to me lo sadly no, she changed her mind even before I sent her my account number! 

She requested for a meet-up!

Creeeeeeeeeep.

The hell I want to meet up with a stranger? Suggesting to meet up at a cafe/campus so that I would feel less intimidated? Still not falling for it!

Who knows what psychotic pervert is the true owner of that Facebook profile? And if a girl ever falls victim to "her" scheme to meet up, what kinda tragedy awaits?

Anyway, to be fair to Miss Amber, prior to posting up her profile publicly, I did my market check with some of the mutual friends, none of whom actually knows her. One of them confirmed my suspicion that this is indeed a scammer and that she and her friends have been asked for their bra size before!


Beware girls, if Miss Amber or anyone suspicious as such randomly come up to you requesting to buy your clothes, do not fall into their trap! It's scary what goes on in these perverts' minds. And this profile has existed for so long! I certainly hope no girls have fallen prey throughout all these years :(

Meanwhile, you may spare a few seconds reporting "her" to Facebook as fake profile: https://www.facebook.com/messages/amber.laushinyi

10 Things about Best Friends

1. You can tell each other your dirty secrets without fearing that they will turn around and use it against you one day.

2. You share your thoughts freely, including your crush on a younger boy because you know they don’t judge.

3. No matter what, you would always be supportive of each other’s decisions, including the decision to cry running back to their ex-boyfriend, although you would first give them a lecture.

4. You never really care about who pays the bill and who owes who by how much because somehow someday, both of you would be even.

5. You miss each other presence often, because people around simply don’t understand you.

6. Even though you don’t talk to each other for days, weeks or even months as you both are busy with lives, you would always find a way back to each other.

7. You are aware of each others’ flaws (just the very minor ones like their indecisiveness and their choice of men wtf is that considered a flaw) but who cares? We are still better than everyone else! LOL.

8. Even when there are cooler people around, you would stick to each other and never let them feel left out.

9. You can go for vacation together for weeks without the urge to strangle them to death (and when you are on vacation with others you are constantly be reminded of how best friends are still your best travel partners).

10. You are certain that some day in the future you will take turns to be each other's bridesmaids. 


I love you best friends! xoxo

She Can Haz Wavy Hair

In case you didn’t notice, I’ve switched my hair back to side parting because someone said I looked very cheena with my centre parting. Not that I despise cheena people but the comment was obviously meant to be a harsh one. And I missed my side parting hence the new look (which looks not much different anyway cause my centre parting wasn’t too centre LOL).

Why am I so chubby?????

Photobucket

I’ve been wearing tank top a lot lately. Feeling the effect of global warming. This afternoon was so hot I sweated right after shower! =(

To be honest I have a rather unattractive at-home look which you wouldn’t want to see. Bra-less with a tank top, ugly spectacles on a nude face and with hair all clipped-up like a middle-aged housewife.

Eyeliner is my life-saver. Teehee. Don’t you love our long wavy hair? That’s my youngest sis, Gigi. Her hair is naturally wavy, even wavier than mine! Nice right! *jealous*

Okay enough of random talks. Gonna yumcha at Ahpeng wantanmee now! Hiak hiak. But I hate the wantan cause they taste really porky. Yuck!

On a Cold Rainy Evening

I am a sucker for men’s jackets. There’s always something charming of guys who offer me their jackets especially during car rides. A simple gesture makes me feel loved and secured.



Although this Oxford jacket was offered by a girl named Venus. Teehee.

JB Tomorrow!



Hello peeps, I’m leaving to JB tomorrow! Won’t be back till Monday, and might even extend my stay. Will be working for PC Fair, so if anyone is going there, please drop by and say hi! Hopefully my job won’t be that boring T.T

No updates until I’m free again! Okay not that anyone cares. *sobs* wtfreak. I love job offers (provided they’re highly paid ones). They keep me occupied and save me from i-am-rotting-at-home syndrome. But it’s really frustrating that certain jobs have to be on the same days! If only I can clone myself and work in 3 different places at the same time =/

Heading to bed now. I shall continue packing tomorrow. Nitex.

Indulgence

The Olive @ Genting Highlands. The most luxurious meal I had this year, and possibly ever.



Armani chocolate.



From Armani Dolci.



The same Giorgio Armani suit for 10days.



Cappuccino refreshes my mind.



The werewolves ate the last T from Twilight.



And finally, I found my necklace after so long. It was hidden in my Coach bag all the while.



My internet connection frustrates me.

Steven Cheung

I’m hungry I’m hungry I’m hungry! Where is MrHik??? Why is he still sleeping??? I need my breakfast and lunch! My empty stomach is growling. I’m moody when I’m starving.

We are heading to One U today. I’m already all dressed up waiting for him. My theme today is vintage: white basic tunic with a vintage badge + high waisted shorts + flower clip. Sheesh, haven’t think of what shoes to match with! We’re gonna shop and dine today, like what an ordinary couple would do in the weekend. Simplicity is bliss.

Beneath the shades hides a vain pot who thinks of nothing but shops. (and maybe food, for now)



Met Steven Cheung from Boyz in FCC the other day. Apparently Steven and a few other Christian artists from Hong Kong came here to perform and present their testimonial. It happened that I went out of the house without my camera that day, and my phone was out of battery! Hence the blur photo snapped with Loo’s lousy phone X(


Okay here ends my short update. I didn’t even intend to blog. Sooooooooo hungry right now I’m just trying to kill my time while waiting for him. Gotta make a phone call now and hurry him.

On the way back to Muar. Yay!



Eyu took a break and slept in the car.



I was bored.



There was nothing to do besides camwhoring.



I wanted to go home quick.



But he was still sleeping.



He didn’t know I took a photo of his crotch.



Tick tock tick tock.



Stress banyak.



I decided to wake him up! Teehee.



By the way, Gucci perfume for the win! XD

I Shall Skip Test Yay

Life has been hectic recently, hence the negligence of my blog. So much for balancing play and study, sometimes I just can’t give up on parties and movie screenings. Pretty sure I am gonna screw my coming test (which is like tomorrow!!!). For an ordinary person facing such situation, he/she might just sit for the test even though the percentage of failing is high. But as for me, I would choose to skip and not do it at all. Call me a coward or anything, but the truth is, I am someone who is afraid of failure. When I am obligated to perform something, I would make sure I give my best, or otherwise, not do it at all. So if you don’t see me tomorrow, I guess I am sticking to my principle.


Cupcake from Wendy ! I picked H, for Hikaru-kun? LOL. The pink icing appeared a little scary, but in fact that’s the nicest part.


These days, people have been telling me how skinny I am and how I should gain more weight. Screw you! I’m happy with my body now so don’t freaking ask me to gain another 20 pounds please. Not that I refuse to eat or anything, but I just don’t get fat. It’s like how some people get fat even without eating much. Same theory, get it? The next thing someone asks me to eat more, I shall just ask him for a luxurious buffet treat. Teehee.


Did you know that Jess has left us for UK? Now there’re just me and Katie , but Katie is flying back to Melbourne soon (very soon)! Gawd, no more girls night out with my best friends for the next few months. I miss you girls badly! X(

Okay, gotta go get ready and pick a pair of new skinny jeans later. Update soon! XD

The Heart of The City

One moment I was sitting at home reading through Economics notes, and the next I found myself wandering around KLCC, so barely visible amongst the crowd of shoppers, embraced by the new, fresh-looking, trendy outfits behind the display glass. This is where I belong! Exactly where I should be at that point of time! Standing at the centre of the building, I found myself being attracted by the temptation of the seasonal sales. The idea of exam had been erased completely from my mind, at least temporarily. Ben said this is no good, for I would later find myself trying hard to catch up with the world moving too fast (only one day left for revision). That is certainly not true, for I know, deep down of my heart I know, that shopping helps everything, and a glance at my victory purchase would make the world halt. I was a bird, free from all worries, fluttering my wings for the reach of somewhere far within. It is not somewhere far I am unfamiliar with, rather, a place where I ought to be, that brings back a sense of belonging, so much contentment I could hardly stop it flowing.

And there I was, invading the private world of two boys, freeing them from the occasional point and stare of other shoppers. The world is so accustomed to conventions, at the same time, capable of assumptions. How can we help, for the judgemental seed had planted itself from within? They who are of equal age, compatible looks and similar dressing, what more do they need to awaken the discerning gossipers? A foreign girl pointed and whispered. She laughed. What a pity that the ruler isn’t straight, for that it has lost its value, unless I can bend it with my hand. Nevertheless, the shape was but an illusion, a misleading mirage. The ruler was straight, straighter than her hair, the moment he found his owner. He pulled me close to his shoulder. She laughed, but this time, with different gestures.

But now, I have been transformed, from an eagle soaring high, to a hummingbird trapped in a rusted cage. A room filled with ancient dust, with the pressure of responsibility that suffocates. Loud noises blasted from the construction site, as if letting out the anger on my behalf. I could hear the soothing splashing of the pool, and the laughter of children playing. The tranquillity I have been longing. How many days await, before I could step my feet onto the heart of the city again, breathing in the modernised air and scrutinising every face that speaks from the heart that connects? Will it hurt to dream, of only what I hope for, yet oblivious to the blessings I have attained?

I lay beneath the shelter, blanketed by the starry sky, counting every second unconsciously. If only I can skip the time, I can avoid the pain of waiting. . .

A Few More Days

Hello mates. For the next whole month we’re gonna suffer through the long torturing AS exam. Are you all prepared and ready for the battle, or are you one of those people like me who still seeks time watching a couple of movies or so in the meantime of revising? Well, we can’t be studying all day right? Though it might be exam week, we need some entertainment to de-stress and soothe our mind, in case those Mathematics questions drive us berserk.


Speaking of entertainment, wouldn’t you consider blogging as a part of it? Indeed, that’s what exactly I’m doing right now. Having my laptop literally placed on my lap, sitting 3inches away from the balcony and stealing some who-knows-whose connection.

Pictures from last week! Hik said we would watch “He’s Just Not that Into You”, but instead of heading to the cinema, we ended up in Super Bowl with his best friends. Doesn’t matter, as long as we had fun.


What’s more, we went to arcade. And that’s where I broke my already-half-broken fingernail while shooting basketball. Hmm, look at these guy. Aren’t they more like school boys than working adults? How cute! ROFL.


Me, Hik, Doo and JY in matching colours XD


Meanwhile, anyone tried Krispy Kreme yet? I swear it’s so much better than Big Apple and J.Co! Though it might be a pricey, those few extra cents are really worth it! It’s at Timesquare by the way, in case you haven’t heard about it.


Okay, gotta get back to movie study. *wink*

Eeeew

You know when you are in Standard 6, you thought UPSR is a highly important exam in your life, because everyone tells you so.

As you entered Form3, your teacher tells you that how much PMR would affect your future and that UPSR is just an insignificant test.

Soon, you are in Form5. “Getting straight A’s in PMR doesn’t guarantee you flying colours in your SPM. This is the year that would make an impact in your future. You think you’re smart just because you scored in PMR? Let me tell you, it is really nothing.”

Eventually, it is the year of Pre-U. You know well enough what your lecturer is about to lecture you. The same shit over and over again that A-Level’s is not as easy as SPM.

Seriously, when will this ever stop? No doubt I can predict what my year one degree lecturer is going to tell me. However, according to Pre-U lecturers, if we work hard enough now, our degree year are likely to be honeymoon year. We shall see if that is indeed a contradicting statement.

On a random note, you know how playful people sometimes manage to outshine the nerdy bunch? They just play and play and play and do last minute revision as exam approaches, yet their results proved to be better off than the nerds. HAHA. I’ve forgotten what exactly I’m trying to say already. Whatever.

Wanna see an ugly picture of me during school days?


Gawd. Who is that? I don’t think I will ever date her. Many more uglier specs+braces geeky pics in my folder. Might make it public when I’m in a good mood. Hiak hiak.
