Of course, everything feels so right that sometimes, the insecurities from my past experiences kick in from time to time. 

Perhaps my idea of love has been warped. I was "taught" by my previous relationship to believe that to experience love, one should feel pain. I used to feel that way all the time. I wasn't used to being happy and loved.

This unhealthy, distorted notion of love has to go away. 

He understood and he assured me. 

He kept on giving me all the assurance I needed in the world to feel safe and happy, though I really don't know where his patience comes from. (?)

But he kept doing it anyway.

So many deaths in just one month in third world countries. My heart really goes out to them.

It makes me appreciate what we have back at home ever more.

Just 2 and a half months back, the Singapore government announced a lock-down of our country. Majority of the retail stores were closed and dining-ins were not allowed. 

So much can change, with a blink of an eye.. and during such unprecedented times, all we want to do is be with our loved ones. 

I'm glad that the Circuit Breaker has somewhat strengthened the bond between my brother and I, and it has made me miss Mum so much. She's currently stuck in Malaysia with an expired visit pass, and transport is extremely difficult. We're relying on voice and video calls to stay connected everyday, for the past few months. Can't wait for her to come back soon.

While we've been staying home for the past 2 and a half months, there was no occasion to dress up for since we're home most of the time. 

My YSL College bag has been tucked away in her dust bag for the longest time, and I didn't bother to check it as well since I was so swamped with thinking what to cook everyday for my brother and I.

Today, I decided to open it and guess what I found?!

My bag was SOOOOOOOO mouldy and because of that, I had little bit of allergic reaction from since mould spores contain toxic substances, and could cause asthma attacks as well. 

Nonetheless, I wore a mask and proceeded to remove the moulds from the bag!

Because the YSL Chevron College bag is made from delicate calf leather, a proper leather cleaner will have to be used to not damage the skin, in which I'll share more below!

Looking really disgusting with all the mould.. I can't believe it. 

I bought this set because I wanted a leather conditioner to help restore my bag to looking new again.

It comes with 2 soft pads that you can apply and use for your bags. Really handy!

So after 20 mins of cleaning using just No.2.......................... 

I've seen how amazing the Chamberlain's Leather Milk duo can bring back old leather bags, shoes and accessories to life - but this was definitely the first time I get to experience it first hand, and it works darn well for my precious bag!

So happy that I've managed to save my bag from the moulds!!! 

Just writing about it so I can share this useful tip with everyone here - and for keepsake purpose as well :)
