What's in my backpack? (University Edition)

Today I'm going to blog about the backpack that I carry to University. It's an Adidas Originals Retro Backpack in Black. I bought it from 'The Outnet'. I got it at a pretty good deal. So I bought one for my babe to couple up with him.




It is made up of 100% Polyurethane. Which is good because when it rains, my bag would be water resistant. The dimension of the bag is H: 17 inches by W: 11.5 inches. It has a laptop compartment which you can store your lappy. It is padded on the sleeve and the back so that it provides comfort when you carry tons of stuff in it. 

Things in my backpack

  • Denizen Umbrella (Important as it is monsoon season in SG) 
  • Kate Spade Wallet (Bought from Melbourne)
  • Coach key pouch (Bought for my Mum, but she finds it too small. So imma use it!) 
  • UOS & SIM Student Card (For attendance) 
  • Tissue paper (Homegirl always have runny nose)
  • Vicks Inhaler and Nivea chapstick 
  • Marble pencil case (Storing my necessities)
  • Sony Earpiece in Lime green 
     ∗  I don't usually bring my lappy to school unless I have to do research/project. 


Adidas Backpack VS Adidas mini backpack


I would only use the bigger backpack when I'm travelling or going to University. If not, I would usually switch out to the mini backpack. I was on the hunt for it for ages. Thankfully my aunt's friend got it for me from UK. Ain't it adorable?

DIY deep burgundy hair!

Hello yall! I just changed a new hair colour today with the help of my aunt. I'm sick of having blonde hair thus I decided to go darker for the end of the year. That is my fave colour PURPLE! I'm gonna show you what products I used to get this result!


1 box of Gatsby Ex Hi- Bleach
2 boxes of Schwarzkopf - Deep Burgundy (4-99)


Current hair colour with no makeup on. :p


To make sure that you do not stain your top, remember to wrap a big plastic bag around you. I left the bleach on for 30 mins before I rinsed it off. It does not have a stinging feeling on my scalp. I was quite worried that one box of bleach would not be sufficient enough for my whole hair. After 30 mins, my hair still looked the same as I clipped it up. Once I rinsed and blow dried my hair, it actually does become yellowish. So it works! Once my hair is dry, I used 2 boxes of Schwarzkopf deep burgundy hair dye. Left it on my hair for another 30 mins and I rinsed it off. I swear my toilet is messy as hell because of the purple hair dye. 


Daeng Gi Meo Ri Shampoo and Treatment
Retails for SGD 38.80 at Watsons



Argan Oil
Retails for SGD29.90 at Venus 


I only spent SGD25 on the bleach and hair dye. It's definitely much cheaper than doing it at the salon. In case you are wondering which shampoo and conditioner I'm using, the brand is daeng gi meo ri. It definitely makes my hair less frizzy after multiple hair dyes. I also applied argan oil after I blow dried my hair. Hopefully, this colour would last long on my hair. So what do you guys think? 


Viola! The end result!
