Thanksgiving Weekend, update, and mail!!!

Hey Everyone,
Its been a long time but finally able to put something up today. I have been kinda busy with school and its almost the end of the year again and i have about 9 more months til im done with school yay!!! So anyways my Thanksgiving weekend was good i had relatives from Colorado, San Diego, and Tennessee over at my cousins house next door so i slept over there for a while until they all left. I had fun we went to Monterey and San Francisco for a while. We went to the mall on Black Friday but didnt buy anything cuz i dont like shopping when theres mad crazy shoppers out there trying to get the same thing you want. But i have bought so much stuff for myself though that im still going shopping for myself. lol Yeah i spoil myself too much but i have new clothes and new jeans from Forever and A'Gaci in Great Mall. But love my jeans i only spent $20.87 on 2 pairs of jeans which was $9.50 each can you believe that? Really good deal right?
So anyways an update about me is just same ol' stuff. I started a new class which is my upper division class called Integrated Business Topics and im glad im done with Microeconomics. Didnt like Microeconomics that much but im glad that class is over with. Im still (but not trying) to look for a new job. And i guess thats all for updates on me.
So yesterday i got something in the mail from BF-Beauty.com and they gave me 1 Nail stickers. I mean i wish they gave me more than just one for my 10 fingers but they are cute. So I just want to thank them for the free gift they got me it was so not expected and i love it. Well that is all for now so will write more later.

Just a Blog About My Life

So i just feel like writing something since i haven't written anything in here in a while since my last one. And today is not about makeup or fashion. I have been having so many things going on in my mind right now that i feel like i cant think. So i never told u guys about my life or whats going on in my life so here it is. Ive been focusing on school and doing my best to work hard in my online classes and also thinking of finding a new job or an internship. But this isnt what has been on my mind for a while, it is actually about a guy i like.

So there is this guy that i started liking and ive known him for almost 3 yrs now. I started liking him about a few months ago when we started hanging out with each other. I met him from a co-ed fraternity that i joined in 2006 from my old school called Alpha Phi Omega. During that time i didnt really think about liking him even though my preference in guys is white guys. I have liked white guys since high school. And i actually had my very first boyfriend in 2007. Yeah its a shocker that i just had my first bf when i was 25. So i had been a virgin for a long time. lol

Well anyways we probably hung out once or twice but with a group of friends but not really just the two of us. And by the way for privacy reasons im not going to say what his name is. So anyways just the beginning of summer of this year was when i started to like him. We went out on our first date on June 20. I remember the date since that was my friends birthday and i told her that i couldnt go to her birthday thing because i was hanging out with someone that day. So me and him (lets just call him Drew lol) went to watch a movie and then had some ice cream and then drove around. I remember before i left my house i told my cousin how nervous i was and she even said that she was nervous for me lol.

And then July 15 was the last time i saw him. He was having a going away dinner with just a couple of close friends and invited me. So i show up late because i didnt know what time he was getting off of work on Wednesday and i just came from church that day. Everyone was already finished eating so they were all just chatting at the table. I grabbed a chair and sat right next to him. We talked and then i started texting him. So i told him how i was going to miss him and he told me that he was going to miss me also. And also told me how he was jealous when i started going out with my first boyfriend. For me it was a shocker because i didnt know that anyone else liked me besides my boyfriend at the time. My boyfriend and I were only together for 2 months so during the breakup i was depressed, so depressed that i felt like i didnt want to live anymore. So when "Drew" told me that he was jealous of my boyfriend and i going out, he also told me how excited he was to go on a date with me which i thought was really cute and sweet.

Oh yeah he had a going away dinner because he was moving to Connecticut for his job. And that is where the main company is. So ever since then i have been missing him like crazy like hes always on my mind. But luckily i can still focus on school even though im thinking about him so much lol. Well during the couple of weeks that he has been there, he asked me if im going to visit him and when im going to visit him. I told him that i would love to visit him but maybe in December because that is when im on vacation.

And for the first few weeks that hes been there ive been texting him and asking him how he is and how work is and he would respond back to me. But now i hardly text him because sometimes he doesnt text back to me. I mean i know that we arent going out but im just hoping that he doesnt meet anyone like a girl and that doesnt leave me hanging. So there are two reasons why i think hes probably not responding to my texts or even calling me. One of the reasons i think is that he probably met someone thats why hes been ignoring my text. And another reason is maybe he doesnt want to always tell me what hes doing or how hes doing because he wants to tell me when he sees me again so that he has something to tell me when hes here. So those are the things that have been going through my mind right now. So every night i have been praying and i am hoping that the second reason is why he hasnt been texting me back.

So i hope that I didnt bore you from my long story. That is all for now until next time...

Clothing Haul

Hey Everyone,
Its been a long time i know but today i have a clothing haul that i would like to share with you guys that i bought yesterday. So yesterday i shopped at Forever 21 and bought 3 things. At first i wasnt planning on buying anything and i was just thinking of trying these clothes out but then afterwards i was like i wanted them and plus they weren't expensive and were at a good price.

So the first thing that i bought was a jacket.
This is a nice casual wear jacket and the color is olive like a greenish color. They have other colors besides this like black and i forgot what the other colors that they had. This was pretty cheap and most of the jackets there are like $20 something but this was only $19.50 which is pretty good for a nice casual jacket.

The next item that i bought was a knit top.
Now this is a nice casual top that you can wear out to a party or even for church. I love this shirt even if it looks plain it still looks nice because below the neck line there is a design. You can wear this with dark jeans and also with leggings. This shirt was only $19.80 which is also a pretty good price for a nice top like this.

The next item that i bought is a teal woven top.
This is a cute teal woven top that you can wear with nice pants for either a business attire or even for church. I thought that this top was really cute even though it looks plain. This shirt cost $9.50 only. Now this is a good deal for a top like this. You can wear this for any occasion. So this is all that i wanted to share with you all. So hopefully the next thing on my shopping list would be boots so if i find any cute ones i will let you guys know.

Asprin Mask Challenge

Hey Everyone!!! It has been a long time but i actually feel like doing a blog today. So my face has gotten worse like my acne is not going away so i decided to try Michelle Phan's DIY: Asprin Mask. I went to Target today and bought Asprin and Honey. So i am starting this today and im going to be doing this twice a week. If i do this more than twice a week then my skin will grow tolerant to the mask. I will let you all know how my face is going as it progresses. So these are the products that i used:


I used non coated asprin like this. This brand is from Target and i am not sure if it is a Target brand but it says some other brand called up&up.











And then i used pure honey.














As you guys can see, my face is not looking so nice and flawless. Ive had this acne problem for maybe about a month already and im thinking that its because of stress. I mean it doesnt seem like i stress out in school since im only taking one class. But hopefully this Asprin mask will work. So this is how i made the Asprin mask:

1) You add 3 tablets and place them into a bowl or plate.












2) Then you add 1 or 2 teaspoons of water. Here i added 2 teaspoons which i think is too much because now it is a little bit watery. You want your mixture to be grainy.










3) Then you add 2 squirts of honey and then mix the ingredients together.













4) Then you evenly spread the mixture onto your face and leave it on for about 10-15 min. And then wash your face. Your skin should be feeling soft afterwards. (Yeah my face is really horrifying with out makeup on).









So i will let you know if this stuff really works and hopefully it will. But i will let you know how it goes every month to see if there are any changes in my skin.

E.L.F. brushes


So just last month i bought 6 brushes from E.L.F. cosmetics. And those are the brushes that i got above. I havent washed them yet and they are still in the package shown in the picture above cuz i wanted to show you guys while its still in the package on youtube. This brings me to what im going to say next and its about me not being able to upload or put videos up. For some reason my videos have been taking so long now to upload and it just sucks because when im excited that i want to show you my haul i really cant because its just taking so long so im going to find out and hopefully i can let you guys know.

So back to my brushes. So the first brush that i got was an eyelash and eye brow wand and this is basically good to fix your eyebrows and to make your eyebrows nice and neat. The second brush that i got was a defining eye brush and this is good for defining your crease and creating an outer-v. The next brush i got was an eye shadow brush which is really big and good for people with large eyes, you can use this brush to apply a highlight. The i got a lip defining brush and this would be good to use for lipstick application but is also good for applying eyeshadow on the lower lash line for a perfect finish. Next brush i got was the concealer, now this brush is smaller than a normal concealer brush and would be harder to apply concealer on blemishes or red spots. This brush is applied best also for the lower lash line for a perfect application. And the last brush that i got was the blending eye brush. This round brush is good for highlighting, also for creating a crease, and for blending.

I do recommend buying these brushes even though i haven't used it yet but they are great because they all cost a dollar. So if you are looking for affordable brushes go to www.eyeslipsface.com.

Lipstick Haul

Hey Everyone!!! So im starting to get into light nude pinkish lipsticks. So i went to the mall trying to find lipsticks that were cheaper than what i would get online. I went to this store called INVU (pronounced I envy you) and found 2 lipsticks that i liked. It wasnt part of my list of round lipsticks that i wanted but i liked it. So one is called Honey which is a nice light brown color and the other one is strawberry milk which is a nice light pink color. I was still on my search for finding more NYX lipsticks and went to CVS (which was longs drugs) and found 2 Rimmel Lipsticks: one called vintage which is like a rosie color and crush which is like a peachy color and the Rimmel lipsticks were both 50% off. Then i got 2 NYX Diamond Sparkle lipgloss: Pink sparkle which is a vibrant pink and Beige sparkle which is a nice brown color. Sadly the NYX Lipglosses were not on sale but at least i got a good price for all of them. The NYX lipsticks that i got from INVU cost $1.99 which is a good price compared to online at Cherryculture.com which cost 2 dollars. So its almost the same price. I wasnt able to do any swatches from my camera but i have swatches on my video that i did. So below is all the lipglosses and lipsticks that i got.


From Left to Right: Strawberry Milk and Honey













From Left to Right: Crush and Vintage













From Left to Right: Beige Sparkle and Pink Sparkle
