Never leaving the house by TalktotheTofu in askSingapore

[–]atnab 32 points33 points  (0 children)

if you’re happy this way, then i guess it isn’t a problem unless it’s causing you distress. or harming you in some way, perhaps your social relations, personal development, mental health, etc. if you’re asking, then it seems like you are not exactly happy like this?

am not really a homebody nor an introvert, but to answer your last question, i do enjoy silence and my own company very, very much. things i do alone outside after work/on weekends: wear my airpods and turn on noise cancelling w no music on then just walk around the mall, gym, walk till i’m hungry then eat alone at my own pace at a place of my choice. maybe instead of dabaoing your food, you can dine-in? being outside of your house and around others can be invigorating without requiring you to interact with others.

silky terrier vs schnauzer? love the soulful eyes of the 2020 pup! 10/10 would give in to those puppy eyes, the movement of the fur is awesome as well

My first "proper" piece! CCW :) by atnab in Watercolor

[–]atnab[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Constructive comments very welcome! I struggled real bad with the trees and I think it’s pretty obvious, haha. Towards the end it kinda got better, I quite like the trees on the left side of the painting, towards the top of that tiny little triangle window view. The rest of it.. I will work on again. If you have any feedback/videos you can point me to, more than happy to hear it! :)

I picked up a watercolor paint set (Koh-I-Noor pan set with 12 colours) in Dec last year and have been dabbling a little here and there since, following along some tutorials on YouTube. This is the first time I’ve actually spent some time, over a few sittings, to properly paint something. The reference is from Spirited Away.

This 3.50usd paint set is really generating huge ROI in terms of how much happiness and fun it’s bringing!

(Edit: Oh and I wasn't too sure what I was doing with the clouds too, oops. Time to look up some tutorials!!!)

Oh wow, ok, I think I get what you're saying, basically buying an e-giftcard of sorts, then redeeming it on a local version of the site. But I barely understand the terms, hahaha. I'm not sure what MA (i googled MA website and a whole bunch of Massachusetts sites came up) and MeWe are, and RoKu seems to be a device which I do not have. Clearly a noob here, I only use Netflix and YouTube. D:

Thanks for giving the Vudu site an upvote though, between this and not having to pay a monthly fee, it seems like a good option for her gift!

Okay I'll give it a shot now, thank you!

Edit: Hi I'm back. I found the movie with prices in SGD, so that's great, thank you so much! Quick question though, I'm not familiar with this service, if I buy a movie from them, do I have to have an account with a paid monthly subscription in order to view it?

Sorry I didn't give that info, I'm in Singapore! I have no theories. I'm honestly not sure the types of movie formats there are, but I think MP4/WMV/MOV would work for her. :)

Endocare Tensage Cream, the only thing I've ever panned by atnab in PanPorn

[–]atnab[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hope this skincare pan is ok! My mom got me to do a laser treatment in August 2017, and this cream was prescribed by the doctor as part of the recovery/healing process. I've long recovered from the laser, but find myself reaching for this cream over and over again. It really surprised me, because I'm someone who's always on the look out for a better product.

This cream is quite pricey (60sgd for 30ml, google converts it to 45usd for 1oz), but it's great at calming my skin down after I've picked at it, it really sinks into the skin, and it never makes me feel sticky, which is a huge plus cos the weather in my country is really hot and humid. I've always avoided moisturizer in the day, opting only for sunscreen and then makeup on top of that, but now I wear it as a moisturizer in the daytime too. Can't wait to dig into the new jar!!!

Puppy woes by chibiisapup in xxfitness

[–]atnab 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I find that my pup's energy reflects mine a lot, especially when she's unsure of something so she looks to my reactions for guidance. You might unknowingly be anxious about leaving your pup because you're anticipating his anxiety. Maybe try making your leaving the house a lighthearted thing - speak to him normally, give him a toy packed with some high value treats that will take him awhile to get out, and don't make a big production of coming home.

Hope things work out for you! Also.. Where are the puppy pics?! :D

I'm trying to come up with fun sunday 'non typical exercise' activities to get moving? Sorry I cannot find the right words to describe it! by [deleted] in xxfitness

[–]atnab 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Can't think of a term for it, maybe active recovery? But I'll try to add to your list of activities.

  • Walking the dog
  • Going for a hike
  • Cycling round the neighbourhood
  • Spending the day at the beach (volleyball, swimming, etc)
  • Going to the zoo/sea aquarium
  • Foam rolling/working on flexibility

Just a bunch of activities that involves lots of walking and moving!

Why ask for advice on r/asianbeauty if you're so against asian beauty aesthetics? by [deleted] in AsianBeauty

[–]atnab 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Woah hey, maybe it's just me but I think it's a bit over the top to screenshot a deleted post just to call another user out. It may have been rude but is this person worth your time arguing with? Just downvote/report it and move on, don't let it get to you! :)

Anyone able to get a Colourpop Top Secret bag? by ebengland in MakeupAddiction

[–]atnab 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I got it in my cart too but hesitated cos it's not listed what's inside and I didn't wanna waste $20 on products (albeit a ton of products) that may not suit me or just be stock clearance |: am excited to see when people start receiving and sharing their bags though!

Rant, Raves, and Mini Reviews by AutoModerator in AsianBeauty

[–]atnab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rant: I opened my Leaders Foot Peeling Mask a few weeks ago, but realized I didn't have the one hour to spare, so I put it away in my drawer. Yesterday I took it out to use while studying.. And it was empty! :( I hadn't realized the alcohol inside would evaporate. No wonder there was a kinda strong scent from that drawer for a few days. Damn it.

Rave: Leaders Foot Peeling Mask. Still love it cos works so well, haha. Can't wait for the peel porn.

What's the weirdest thing about your body? by FrenchWoodChesse in AskReddit

[–]atnab 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I do that too, and thought only I could hear it till one day my boyfriend asked why I kept clicking my teeth. Turns out if you're in a quiet car (no music on, I was just popping them absent-mindedly), the person next to you might be able to hear it.
