School Supplies Haul
Hi everyone ! Happy weekends !
Today I will be doing a haul of all the new items I got for school. On my Facebook, I said I was going to do one whole post on everything school-related, my school supplies haul, organization tips and study tips, but I realised that was a bit too much to be put into one post. So I decided to split things up, I will be doing separate posts for organization tips, study tips and more school-related things. Today, we are starting things off with my School Supplies Haul, I hope you enjoy this haul and I hope you find this useful !
Let's get started !
Sticky notes are essential for school, they are great for taking down short memos and for marking important details you have to take note of. I got all of these from Daiso for $2 per packet.
These are the standard plain design sticky notes that you can get anywhere, I like to get the ones with bright colours because they are super outstanding, whenever I flip a page they always catch my eye because they're so bright ! So I won't miss out on anything important !
If you feel that the simple coloured sticky notes are a little bit too plain and boring, you can get these patterned ones with floral, checkered, and polka dots. I think they're super unique, and very girly. I like to stick them in my notes to make them look more interesting and cute.
This one with the cute little porcupines is my favourite, don't they look adorable? You can find more sticky notes like these at Daiso, they have so many designs and I'm sure you'll find something that you'll love !
Because I don't like my things lying everywhere, I got this box from Daiso to store all the sticky notes. This makes my desk a whole lot neater. Organization tip: You can get a box like this to store your sticky notes, it adds a sweet touch to your desk. And because sticky notes are so small, you tend to lose them easily. Keeping them in a box makes it easy for you to locate them.
Highlighters are another study essential. They really help when you're studying because you can highlight any important details, and then when you're doing your revision you know what are the areas to focus on. I've always loved scented highlighters because they smell so good !
This pack has 4 different scents: orange, strawberry, banana and pineapple.
The pack of scented markers are from Daiso !
A fun fact to share with you guys ! When I saw these "scented markers" at Daiso, I didn't know they were highlighters, I thought they were whiteboard markers. But when I got home I opened the packet and found out that they are actually highlighters, so that was pretty awesome !
And you all know that we gotta have these things for school, pencil cases ! I got these ones from Daiso too ! Practically all the things I got in this haul are from Daiso. I got myself a pink pencil case with polka dots, and a fluffy light blue one. They are so cute and I can't wait to use them.
I just keep my stationery in these, the usual pens, pencils and highlighters ! Daiso always has cute pencil cases so I like to go there when I need a new one.
The next items in my haul are these notebooks. I find that in school I always need to take down notes, so I decided to get these cute notebooks from Typo. They were super inexpensive, only about $2-$3, and are in the a5 size so they're really handy to carry around.
I also got 2 more notebooks and these are from Daiso. You all know how much I love polka dots, floral and mint green. These were super inexpensive too, $2 each.
These 2 notebooks are in the a4 size. As a size comparison I brought in one of the previous a5 notebooks.
Then I saw these at Typo, and of course I had to get them. They look awesome and I know I would be needing these because I have so many classes, and I need to write a lot of notes.
These notebooks have these pockets where you can put in your sticky notes or memo cards, awesome !
Next I got some clear folders so I can put in any important notes and lecture material that my teacher gives me. I also like to keep my homework in here. These 2 folders are from Daiso.
I also got some binders so that I can keep all my papers organized. Which makes it easier for me to look through all the papers and study material when I'm revising for my exams.
This is the end of my very long School Supplies Haul ! I hope you found some of the tips useful, I will also be doing a separate post where I will have MORE study tips and organization tips !
I will talk to you guys soon ! Have a wonderful wonderful day !

Summer Haul: Clothing, Accesories + more ! (Forever 21, Cotton On, Sephora)
HEY GUYS !!! Today I am back with another haul for y'all ! You ready ? Got your seat belts on ? Got your Slurpee? (Just kidding, I'm actually drinking a green apple Slurpee right now, and it's SUPER DUPER YUMMY !!)
First place I went to was Sephora
I got this from Sephora, it's a mini palette. But I didn't purchase this, it was my birthday yesterday so Sephora gave this to me as a birthday gift.
It has 4 eyeshadow colours, really pretty neutrals. 2 lip glosses, as you can see I've already used some. And a blush. I will be doing a review on this, be sure to check it out ;)
Next, I went to Forever 21. They were having a sale, but sadly none of the items I got were on sale :(
I got this pair of really pretty sky blue/pastel high-waisted shorts. This is the first pair of shorts I've ever purchased at Forever 21. I've always wanted to get some shorts from there, but they are kinda pricey for shorts, so I never bought any. But since it was my birthday yesterday, I decided to give myself a little treat.
This is what they look like on the back. No crazy pocketing. Because you guys already know that I'm not a really big fan of crazy pocketing.
Spikes instead of the usual studs
I got a tote bag to put my school books and other random knick-knacks. I think it's super cute and I LOVE that camera ! And it says SMILE ~
And surprise surprise, Cyan got more bows. These are black lace bows and they're super adorable <33 You guys know I am CRAZY about bows. Everything that's a bow, I just gravitate towards. Oh ! And this was $3, super inexpensive.
QUICK TIP TIME ! Whenever you're shopping for accessories at Forever 21, look out for this kind of pink price tags, items with the pink price tag only cost $3 !
Then I headed over to Cotton On, where they were having the CRAZIEST sale !
I got this pair of floral shorts. I've been looking out for floral shorts for a very long time, and I never found a pair I really like. So I walked into Cotton On and when I saw this pair, a beam of white light shone on it and magical music started playing. Just kidding, I just fell in love with it. And I knew that this is it, the perfect pair of floral shorts for me. AND IT WAS THE LAST PAIR !! AND IN MY SIZE !!! Tell me this isn't meant to be !
Shortsies, thank you for waiting for me !
THIS is what it looks like on the b-b-b-back ! No crazy pocketing ! I get the feeling I'm gonna wear it so much this summer. Forget summer, I'm gonna wear it THE WHOLE YEAR !
Price tag ! $29.95
I also got this sleeveless tank top ! It has flowers on it and it was ON SALEEEEE ! FOR $10 !!
I know, I know, the price is out of this world !!
It was originally $24.95 and I got it for $10 ! SCOREEEEE
Then I got this denim circle skirt ! I've been on the lookout for something like that ever since I saw something like that in the Kendall & Kylie Collection for Pacsun. We don't have a Pacsun in Singapore and that's a real pity *grabs a Kleenex*
It's $19.95 by the way, in case this photo isn't clear enough...
That is all I bought at the retail stores. But this is not the end of this haul, I have a couple more items I ordered online from Cotton On.
I got this pair of black crochet shoes from Cotton On at the most incredible price of $10. I can't wait to wear it with denim shorts and pretty highwaisted skirts.
My school bag broke, so I needed a replacement and I found this online at $15, so of course I had to grab it. It's the grey marle material with brown leather accents, and I thought that would look really cute for school. Oh ! This is from Cotton On too. They have a few other designs for this, a denim one and a camo one.
That is all I have for you in this haul ! I hope you enjoyed reading it.
I will talk to you soon. Love, Cyan
