Capkaps
As the name suggests, this online shop sells a large variety of caps. If it doesn't interest you, don't worry: They do sell other things too, such as adorable and stylish iron on patches for whatever clothes you have. Their items are mostly instock, so if you have little patience and hate the 2 week wait for preorders, this is for you. Of course, the waiting time is dependent on the time you take to make payment as well as the type of mail you choose. They provide you with free normal mailing, and registered mail at a cost of $2.50. They can be found on Carousell, Instagram, Facebook and Qoo10. I did you a small favour of including the links in the different medias, so just mouse over to whichever site you like and click on it.
I would call their caps affordable: It definitely wasn't pricey, because the previous snapbacks I bought were all priced at around $15. This one was at $12 (excluding my mailing price), so it's relatively cheaper. I paid for it one day after I told the owner which cap I wanted, and the very next day it was mailed out. Efficient.
I received the package 2 days later at the convenience of my doorstep. Happily, I opened it up to find my snapback laying beautifully inside. Here's a few pictures of it:
Yup I'm a fan of One Piece.
To my surprise, I looked into the mail bag and found something else:
Free stickers! I couldn't get more excited. I got a free gift from buying a cap :D
On top of all that, I was faced with good service from the owner. So yes, good service, great efficiency and a free gift! Wonderful. Do support them if you're looking for a cap, either as a gift or for yourself.
Side note: This shop is based in Singapore, so if you're NOT from Singapore, I'm not sure if they do overseas mailing. There's no harm asking, though.

5 Nights At Freddy's
Recently I watched a video by Twaimz, a Youtuber/Vine user on him playing this horror game called 5 Night's At Freddy's, and I got a little interested in the game. Instead of installing on the computer (I'm lazy and I don't have the time for that), I got the android version of the game.... Which was significantly more boring but still VERY SCARY.
I don't think I've ever been this scared, honestly.
The game goes like this: The player gets hired in a place called Freddy's as a security guard. Freddy's is a pizza parlour (or something along that line) that's popular with both parents and kids. In the parlour, there's 3 life-sized robots (one of them being Freddy the bear) that's programmed to entertain the crowd in the day during it's operating hours. However, at night, things happen to their programme at night and... That's where you come in.
Your role is to sit in a room and observe the surveillance cameras around the place. Sounds easy? You have, however, only a rather limited energy to survive the long night of about 6 hours. There's also the robots to contend with, which obviously uses up a considerable amount of energy too. So it's quite a challenge.
When I first started playing the first night, I got rather confused because I wanted to go out of the room BUT I COULDN'T. So I could only wait until the night was over.
((spoiler alert: nothing happens on the first night))
The second night was where my character died and I myself almost died too. I was checking the surveillance cameras when I noticed something fishy. The bench where all the robots were sitting in the first night had 1 robot missing. And immediately I sensed something amiss.
So I went on to check another camera... And halfway while watching, the screen went blank! Obviously there was something happening, but I couldn't figure out anything. I sat in front of my tablet and waited for something to happen, but nothing did. As a result, I got rather bored and went back to studying (yes, I was playing while studying).
My headphones were plugged into the tablet with the volume on max so I could hear it without having the headphones on. Halfway while writing my notes, there was a very loud and long shriek from the headphones. And there's when I almost died because I was so focused on studying I almost forgot I was in the midst of playing a horror game and I was not prepared for that at all!
And yes you guessed it: that's also when I died in the game.
This game is likely to be the scariest game I've ever played in my life and I really DON'T recommend it to the faint-hearted (like me. I don't remember how I even got attracted to play this game to begin). However, if you're really daring and you like horror, this is the game for you. But I wouldn't recommend the android version - It's relatively boring. Get the one on PC.
... And that's it for now.
