Elephant's Memory

Hello. I haven't really been dressing up lately cause school has been super busy! Anyway, went out wit the family today so I wore my new striped sequinned dress from Forever21! I am so sorry you can't really see the sequins because of my lousy camera & I took it outside my house. Will take it once more when there is better lighting! :)

Anyway, this is one of the 3 pairs of heels I bought at Bianca last week. 8 bucks :D

I have also been addicted to this show called Criminal Minds. It's amazing. Matthew Gray Gubler is hot! Hehe & I really liked this episode where this teenager conducted spree killings on those who bullied them in school.

"You know, we forget half of what they teach us in school, but when it comes to the torment and the people who inflicted it we've all got an elephant's memory. - Morgan"

So, so true! I wouldnt say I was bullied but I was constantly laughed at for being fat/looking like a boy/wearing glasses & so on that I really hated school back then! I'll never forget those who laughed at me either..but well, I won't kill them for what they did though.

I need to do my homework for tomorrow's class so I promise to update soon! :D





Top - Forever 21
Leggings - Bugis Street
Shoes - Bianca
Headband - Forever 21

  1. That quote is so true. I'd wish it would be the other way round as I would love to remember all the cool math I knew and forget all the harsh words I was told.

    The dress look great on you!

  9. Bullies suck major balls. That sentence would be pretty funny if taken literally.

    Anyway, you are gorgeous and don't you forget it. The Asian mentality states that if you don't resemble a twig, you are automatically fat. Please. Those bitches don't have your awesome boobs and hips (I'm a girl so I'm allowed to comment like that). :p

  12. Oh that dress is so pretty, and I love it with the leggings! I agree about holding onto the bad things, it's human nature isn't it? I could probably tell you every bad thing that was ever said about me in High School (the ones I know about!) but none of the good ones! Char x

  24. The elephant's memory thing is so true! People used to make fun of the way I dressed, but I usually ignored them because I knew I was more stylish than they were! So nyahhh! Hahaha. Normally, I think of sequined dresses as party dresses, but you really made it a daytime look. Love it.

  42. Yes, you're right. I also didn't forget the ones that at school laughed at me for being fat and wearing glasses, or at least if I don't remember their faces I remember their cruelty.

    You look so cute, my dear.

  43. Oh, school here is really busy too! Tomorrow I have loads of time but I have to spend it all studying... And wow! I love your sequinned dress! Where did you go to with your family? I have a black sequinned jacket too, and I would really like to know for which occasion it would be appropriate, what do you think?
    Oh, being bullied is horrible :( I wasn't being bullied, fortunately, but there was a time when I didn't have any friends. I hated school back then too. Now I love it.
    You look great! You aren't fat at all and you don't look like a boy either! Oh I remember, one girl used to tease me about not having any breasts =/ And I wear glasses too, so join the club ^^

  73. Your blog and your style seriously top my list of all other bloggers. I love the dress and headband! And the blog is very true. It's like how people forget the good qualities of others but pick out the bad ones.

    ReplyDelete
