"Best" Friends

The last time I ever considered someone my best friend was when I was in primary school. There was this class bully, and my friend and I got sick of her. The girls in my class were divided into two groups, and the class bully was in none of the group. This one time, a friend of mine borrowed a pencil, she gave it back by putting it on top of my bag and I said "gimana sih" and the class bully thought I said "brengsek" to my friend who borrowed my pencil. Not only was she mean, she also had a hearing problem. Anyway, I had a best friend ever since I was in the third grade up until I graduated primary school.

What is a best friend? For me a best friend is someone you can talk to about anything. A best friend is the first person you call when you're making plans, when you like this guy, or anything really. It's someone who gives you advice, and the person who hugs you and cheer you up when you're in the lowest point of life, instead of saying "I told you so". And this cheesy paragraph sounds like something written by a sixth grader.

I am not an open person. I joke around my friends, and if it is not important I would tell them things. However, I never really share something big, something life changing to anyone. Heck, I don't even tell them about myself, my past, things that I've done. Basically, my friends only know the outer shell and I like it that way.

I'm not good in maintaining friendship. I had a few close friends, and those friends come and go. So, in school A I had a few close friends, then I moved to school B, I barely keep in contact with my close friends, let alone other friends. In school B, I'd have another close friend(s), and same thing happened when I go to school C. At first I tried to keep in contact with some of my friends. Until one day I felt like I was trying too hard. They wouldn't contact me if I didn't. So I stopped caring.

This post is short and rada ngga jelas I know. I just wanted to write something.

Anyway, thanks for reading. I'll post something more interesting and worth reading next week. Or probably this week.

Love,

Al

The Balm Meet Matt(e) Hughes FAKE vs REAL

I recently fell in love with The Balm's products especially their liquid lipstick, Meet Matte Hughes. Quick review, it's one of the best liquid lipsticks out there. I love liquid lipsticks that have mousse-y texture and doesn't suck the moisture out of my lips. Although it doesn't last as long as some liquid lipsticks I own, it's very comfortable on the lips. The only problem I have is that a lot of online shops sell fake products and claim it as original products. Me being reckless, I fell in the trap and got myself a fake lipstick. This writing is meant to show the difference between the fake and the real Meet Matte Hughes, and to share some tips based on personal experience on how to avoid getting fake products. During the holiday I purchased The Balm Committed in an online shop on Instagram (IG: cathydolla now seoulshopping - this online shop changed their name 3 times since I purchased the fake lipstick ). I've been eyeing on Committed and Adoring and dec...

Wangsa Jelita Green Tea Lotion, Rose Body Butter and Sandalwood Beauty Oil Review

First post in 2016! Yay! Before I start with the review I'm gonna do a background story, so here goes. There was this night where I randomly scrolled through my blog post and found a comment from an actual person. I was surprised because I really thought no one reads my blog except me. I was so happy to know that there's actually someone who enjoyed my writing (at least that's what I thought). It turned out that the co-founder of a local brand called Wangsa Jelita wanted to chat with me. I looked at the date and bam! it was 4 months ago. I emailed her anyway to say thank you and from there I got offered to try Wangsa Jelita's products. Of course I said yes. I've heard of the brand for quite some time now. Unfortunately, I never got the chance to try because most of my body care products (body butter, lotion, etc) are purchased by my mum. Yes, the products I'm about to review are sent to me. Meaning, I didn't pay a dime for these products. Howe...

Evete Products Review

I actually finished writing months ago. I don't know why but I kept on procrastinating. Note: photos are taken by my phone and hence the quality of the photos aren't that good. But eh, the reviews are all that matters. I’ve gotten myself quite a lot of Evete’s products recently. Evete is an Indonesian brand specialised in natural handmade skincare products. I have made a review comparing their lip balm with another brand somewhere in this blog. And since I’ve tried all their products – body butter, body lotion, body scrub, lip balm and face scrub– why not review them all. Lip Balms I’m a fan of their lip balms. I have finished three tubes, and going to finish another one soon. The lip balm feels heavy and thick. It will also give you that shine on your lips. It is very moisturising. If you have chapped lips or want extra moisture at night, this would be the perfect product. Evete has 6 different smells for their lip balms and since I purchased their Valen...
