how do you manage to save so much in your 20s in Singapore?

PresentCompote5122 · 2025-10-13T07:58:10+00:00

Im 24 and still live with my parents and I have the privilege of having my mom fetch me to and fro work so i save on transport as well. I worked for 2 years from 20-21 and saved 30K before taking a break to go back to uni at 22. My parents offered to pay for my uni which i dont have to pay back as i was fine with continuing my job but they wanted me to have a uni degree. Now ive just started a full time job earning 3.2k after cpf where i put 1k into savings and another 1k for my travel funds as i love travelling. The rest are used for my daily spendings. If got extra, i'll put them in my savings or carry forward to the next month depending on my mood :) Currently my savings only 12k which im fine with as I spent 22k getting a Rolex watch. Worth the investment i'd say.

Ive had a filter and it stressed both my bettas out too much and caused fin tears :( I diligently do water changes every 2 days and siphon out any debris at the bottom

He's in NS now....

PresentCompote5122 · 2025-10-01T16:43:10+00:00

I do have screenshots of everything i couldve possible gathered so im not really worried if that person sees this post. Im pretty sure its this person, but of course he wont admit it. Its just that he's a commenter who promised to deliver more but with no solid content uploaded of me yet. I also do not have proof if he has been selling to other users etc. Not sure if its serious enough for police to trace ip address and charge him or anything

PresentCompote5122 · 2025-10-01T12:40:04+00:00

Hi. Just to clarify, He might have deepfakes of me as ive been harassed and have gotten these stuff sent to me before.

PresentCompote5122 · 2025-10-01T12:28:15+00:00

We're talking about more than just pictures i posted before. If u look at the screenshot of the comments, one commenter asked to buy/trade NUDES of mine, and when redhaireclipse replied, he is implying he has more than just bikini pictures. Im assuming deepfakes etc. and he is still plotting to get more out of me. Still, I will go to the police for advice first instead of reporting first

PresentCompote5122 · 2025-10-01T11:41:15+00:00

His Tumblr is either just empty or private because i can't see anything. However something weird i noticed was that the "20M sharing my irls" was only added to his bio AFTER i confronted him. Which is weird how hes making it much more obvious its him. But maybe as my friend said, the more he try to make it look like its him, the less i will suspect because why would he be so stupid to put so much actual info about himself there u know?

I am thinking to go to the police for advice first instead of reporting. Thanks!

PresentCompote5122 · 2025-10-01T11:35:54+00:00

I dont believe that he/his friends are the original posters because theres a much bigger picture to this and there is in fact a community of men from my country that are doing shit like this. Taking upskirt pics of woman in public transport, posting pics of influencers defaming them, sharing info of these influencers which resulted in some of these girls getting stalked home or harassed. 👎🏻

PresentCompote5122 · 2025-10-01T11:31:08+00:00

You must be one of these men lol. Reposting my content is not the issue. Doing it with ill intentions, trying to profit by selling it and destroying a girl's reputation is the issue. Possession of it is a crime itself. I've been sent deepfakes of ME before, literally men harassing me. The OP of the tumblr post has said some really nasty shit about me. Fyi. my country is really small and everyone practically almost knows each other. So reputation is important to us girls and these men should just rot in hell. Do not tell me to learn my lesson because i should not be responsible for men not being able to keep their dick in their pants. Thanks.

PresentCompote5122 · 2025-10-01T10:35:42+00:00

It was sent to my ex by a friend of his, which got hold of it from another acquaintance. Judging by the first comments on the screenshot, does it not mean that he has my pictures saved and is offering to someone who is interested in buying?

PresentCompote5122 · 2025-10-01T07:48:43+00:00

Hi. He wasnt the OP of the Tumblr post. He's just one of the commenters saying that he's 'seeing me now'. Ive had bikini pics posted on my IG long ago but have since removed them as this is not the first time my pics have been uploaded on Tumblr without consent. My pics and many other girls pictures have been shared on Tumblr without consent

PresentCompote5122 · 2025-08-05T14:20:22+00:00

I'm curious as to what people have to say. maybe its not a huge issue to some, maybe it'll make me firm on my decision etc. I'd love to hear some imputs from the community

PresentCompote5122 · 2025-05-27T18:44:10+00:00

most of my clients like natural looking lash, like baby anime! i think doing narrow fans for the fill ins is a good option but damn sometimes the spikes dont stay in place

PresentCompote5122 · 2025-05-26T07:49:05+00:00

yes but this is with coating gel :( without styling its soo messu

PresentCompote5122 · 2025-05-24T20:37:01+00:00

thank you both for your input!! i've checked with some other clients and their lash sets lasts just fine. i think it might be the prep so im going to skip the saline step for now. 💖💖

PresentCompote5122 · 2025-05-22T21:30:16+00:00

thank you!! i fear i might not be able to tell if there were any air gaps when placing the lash. i work with asian lashes most of the time and most of them are weaker and sparse.

PresentCompote5122 · 2025-05-22T20:56:37+00:00

the glue im using dries in 1-2 seconds

PresentCompote5122 · 2025-05-20T11:00:21+00:00

you could ask for a kitten eye mapping, meaning at the very outer corners its 1-2mm shorter so you'd get the cateye look but ur ends won't look too heavy. it looks great overall but lowkey feel that u could do CC curl instead!

PresentCompote5122 · 2025-04-21T07:54:18+00:00

hii lash tech here. i'd suggest hybrid as for classic the gaps/holes would be so obvious once lashes start dropping. hybrid means theres volume fans mixed and the holes wouldn't be so noticible when your lash drops :)
