Review.

Maybeline's

Define-a-Brow eye pencil.

I love this. I used to used MAC's eyebrow pencils in Lingering & Spiked. I loved it but I felt like the pencil ran out fast and each pencil is about $15. Ekk! It doesn't matter the price to me as long as I find good quality in it. The cheaper the better. This one I found at Longs Drugs for $4. :) I used the "Dark Brown" and I swear it's an exact dupe for the MAC one. :) I definately recommend this. :)

I missed One Tree Hill tonight. :( It's driving me crazy. && when we finally came home & I wanted to watch the next scenes for next weeks episode....I miss that too. Ughhh! It's okay. I'll just catch up on it, online when it uploads Wednesday night. :)

Dad's home! He was in vegas from Thursday night. Gosh we missed him. It's crazy how unnormal it was to not have dad home. :( but no big.

I found an old Barnes & Nobles gift card last night & when I went there today I had $10 still on it! woohoo! So I bought a few books. :) Which is a really bad habbit that I should stop at once. I always buy books when I still have yet to finish book prior. 

I also went to MAC today. :) haha how lovely those words are. I spend WAY more than I intended too. :( All I told myself was.. "Only brush cleaner....only brush cleaner." but then when I walked up to the counter at Kahala Macy's, they had they're holiday collection out. GREAT. another dent in my wallet I thought. haha. So I saw the Melon Pigment that I've been wanting for SOOOOO long & I asked if they had it in the permanent collection. Guess what? NO! but it was part of one of their holiday sets. In one of the two  "Lip & Eye Bags". Inside it had...

- Melon Pigment

- Rich Ground Fluidline

- Zoom Lash Mascara - Travel size

- 209 LE brush

The fluidline was gorgeous, & I've been wanting a 209 brush....so I kinda talked myself into getting it. hahah Which I must say was a good investment because I LOVE the melon pigment :). 

That's all. Ciao!

makeup time :)

Lately I've been loving the Coastal Scents 88 Warm palette. My mom, sister and I made a some orders last month on the Coastal Scents website. I've been waiting one for a while and I've heard of a bunch of people who have it. I've been eyeing out products from that site so I showed my sister and mom && we loved it.

Our orders:

Mom - 26 shadow blush combo palette

this suits her well because she always wears purples and dark pinks and browns and she likes to be simple and the palette has 5 blushes inside. So she loves it.

Sister - 88 shimmer palette & 88 matte palette

mom and i got it for her birthday and she's been loving it. she likes to try things with new colors and those palettes have literally EVERY color she would possibly think of. :D

Me - 88 warm palette.

I just wanted to try out all of our palettes before purchasing more and it works out because i've been using sister's ones alot. haha.

but lately i've been doing this neutral brown look for an every day && i love it. I didn't think of it on my own sadly but i really like this makeup guru on youtube and she did a tutorial on it && i've been replicating that look almost everyday now. :) MakeupbyTiffanyD

- I didn't have the same shadestick that she used so I used the MAC Indianwood paintpot which is more goldy but it still makes the browns and taupe-y colors pop. :) && because I used a paintpot which creases on me sometimes I used my Urban decay primer potion which i laaaaav. :) I only thing that i heard about it is that when it seems like you run out of it (since it's a weird shaped bottle) that sometimes you have to cut it open at the base  of it and then scoop the rest out because there is ALOT more product in there than you think.

Check it out!.

21!

21!!!! yay! well...it's probably not as exciting as i thought. haha especially since it's a monday. gotta wait to party hard until this weekend. :) teehee. haha. but anyways here's how my day went.....

Babe bought me a tattoo for my birthday. haha i really wanted one for about a year now but my parents have been against it and my mama said that if i got one before i turned 21 then she would kick me out of the house. haha so i guess i waited. buuuut yeah. so i made the appointment at Sudden Rush in waipahu for Monday October 19 (the day of my actual birthday) and i wanted to get it from the same guy who tatted my cousin and her husband. BUT he doesn't work on mondays so I made the appointment for last thursday. :) That fucka was sore. I mean I expected it to be painful but since i got it on my foot, he said it's one of the most sore spots to get tatted on. HAHA figures. but he said if i could handle that spot then if I do decide to get other tats then i'd get through them piece of cake. :D but yeah I love it but my foot is still healing and i didn't know until afterwards that the foot takes the LONGEST to heal. Uhhh.....but i still love it. Thank, BABE!

So then yesterday was my ACTUAL birthday. Woke up && sister got me  Hello Kitty drawer for my makeup which is exactly what i needed and kudo points for it being hello kitty :) hahah & then i got Tuscana heels & Steve Madden black boots from Mama&Dad. :) I love it so bad haha. Mom said she was "inspired" to get those because of my tattoo. (She likes it now, but at first she didn't like the size of it and wants me to make sure to cover it up as much as possible for work and important stuff, but now she's cool with it). 

Then unfortunately I had class. :( but when it was finished I went to babe's house & then we went shopping for his dinner that he was gonna make for me. :) & he bought me Stargazer Lilies. :) my FAVORITE. :D i love my hunnie. He's so sweet. Then we went home....cruised for a while...& then we went back out around 5ish to pick up his cousin from school.

OMG so on the way back to his house...(we was driving MY car by the way) we was passing punahou and all of a sudden my tire came off!!! my whole tire. WTF. it was so weird. but we found the tire by the street and it wasn't blown out. it was perfectly fine. so i called my dad and he turned around on his way home to come rescue me. ughhh poor dad. aha. but then a woman drives up nexts to us and parks, gets out of her car, and comes over and tells me that after my tire blew off, it rolled down the hill and hit her car! OMG what now!!!! but she was real cool about it. her front bumper was just misaligned. thats all && her husband was so kind enough to go pick up the bolts from the middle of the street to give them back to us. :)

so basically we had everything we need and all the parts....just everything was disassembled. :) hahaha. ughhh. so dad came (in his fully stocked tools truck. MATCO TOOLS represent! haha!) & fixed my tire. but the breaks was still kind of bad.

so we went back home and josh started making his dinner. (poor thing he wanted to start earlier but no :( hah.) & my dad calls to tell me that while my car was in the shop this past weekend, the technician loosened up my tire to check the break. WHAT THE FCUK. what if i was on the fricken freeway. holy shit. i was so livid with them. sue their asses mannnn. ughhhh. soo dad and i need to take care of that this week. *shakes head*. 

so back to my day.....babe's dinner was amazing. Fettacini alfredo with mushrooms & shrimp with garlic bread. :) YUM! & he made a cupcake tower with candles as my bday cake. haha. thanks to his sister for frosting them. :D & then i opened gifts. 

I LOVE MY INLAWS. seriously I couldn't ask for BETTER inlaws. since day 1 they've been the best at making me feel like I belong in their family. :) awww i love you guys. :)

that's all. haha. babe and I had a glass of wine while we ate dinner but...we both didn't like it...haha...so we're going out tonight (Tuesday) after he's done with work and go out and drink. we was sooo hella tired from yesterday...the car....making dinner.....it was too tiring to go out again. so yeah. we'll be drinking tonight!!! yay! okayyy...thats all. BYE!

Summary

Whoa. It's been a hell of a while since I last posted. 

ANYWAYS...nothing much has changed or has happened really. Just the same old same old. School and Work. which neither is going anywhere it feels likes. I feel like at this point in my life...it's kind of like a "waiting room" phase.

Like with school....I've been skipped class like crazy. I'm kinda thinking that school really just isn't for me. I mean I've been paying for school this and last semester and I don't feel like it's worth it sometimes. I know that I should be wayyy wayyy focused but I can't seem to get the jist of things. I mean I know getting that degree is what I should be focusing on but...idk. I was talking to my sister the other day and I told her about not going to class and she feels like I should quit school and do a full time job. With that said one one hand I would much rather pursue makeup and start taking those classes, branching out, and doing that full time....and then on the other...my gut is telling me to atleast finish my AA degree. It's really been driving me insane but it keep in undercover because I just know that if any of that got back to my parents, I would never hear the end of it.

Then with work. Arghh. I mean I am so grateful that I have this job and I know there is a bunch of people who was just laid off of their long time careers but it's not going anywhere. I mean I love love love the people I work with and since it is my first real job, I'm so comfortable with them. I don't know. Babe feels like I should find another job because he always sees me not happy about my job. I'm thinking after christmas time, I might put in my resignation. With thaaat said, I need to get my ass in gear with finding another job.

I feel like a fresh start with everything. School situation...work situation.....living situation....money situation.....working out situation.....all of it.

Atleast me and the boyfriend have been doing good. I mean we have our personal issues and ups and downs, but I really can't see myself without him. I mean I've done it once, and don't get me wrong....I can handle it on my own...but I'm just so attached to him and his family that since it's the second time around....i really REALLY can't picture my life without him. We make 4 years on December 30th. && I have a few gifts lined up for him. I mean those cost money (which I don't have for it now) but I will be saving my ass up like crazy November and December if I want to get those things for him. Last weekend a friend of mine made a comment about us: "I'm surprized you two aren't engaged?" Whoa. I mean he's my boyfriend of 4 years and all but DDDAMN. Engaged? Scary thought huh? I mean we're both still not finished with college, both still living in our own homes (even though I stay at his house most of the week), we don't have alot of money... I mean his job pays him good and mine...well...mine isn't paying for us....but i don't know. When I started thinking about it more...I started thinking to myself : When ARE we getting engaged? I hope that it's somewhere within the next 1 1/2 years.  Atleast hopefully by then ill have my AA, have a full time job, and we'll be moved out. *Fingers Crossed.* It'll all come in time. I just know that I love him and that's all I need right now. :)

Just a quick summary of life as I know it now. :)

Have a great day everyone!

Until next time...

It's been a while.

So. Here's the scoop about what's been goin on.

Last Friday, sister and I took a girl day together. We haven't done one in a while and it was the last weekend of her summer so we wanted to go.

Colored my hair back to my root color but it's a little darker because my hairstylist said that the color will fade slower this way. I been going to the same guy for a while & he's amazing. He's really thorough and he's been in the haircutting/beauty/makeup business for a long time. He also gives an AMAZING neck and head massage when you wash your hair there.

Fantastic Sams
1216 Waimanu St.
Honolulu, HI 96814
Stylist : Bret

& I cut it a little. Before I really liked the length & I told him to keep the length but he could take off the dead ends. & then for the whole time I was waiting for the color to set in under the dryer I was contemplating on cutting my bangs BUT i decided not to. & then when he went to go cut the split ends by my bang layers he cut wayyyy more than I expected him too. BUT i LOOOOOVE it. :) Everyones been saying that it's too dark for me and that they liked my light hair. but I think I like my DARK hair way more now. :) Plus it'll be easier to keep up. :)

Then we went to go do our nails at City Nails in waipahu. Sister got cheetah print toes & I got zebra print tips on my acrylics. :) I love em.

My interview was yesterday morning. & I think it went really well! I was such in a good mood yesterday because of it. I was not as nervous as the last interview I took there but this time was awesome. It was at a different location and the managers there were a whole lot more informative and thorough on the interview process. Plus they we were suppper nice. :) I hope I get the job! She said she would let me know by next Tuesday. FINGERS CROSSED!!!

Sister started school today. Her first day as a Kamehameha SENIOR. mahhgawwwwd! She's getting so old already. I feel so old. ;) Haha. but I hope she has a great year! She's applying to UH, HPU, & a few west coast mainland colleges. Hopefully she goes away to college. As much as I will miss her TERRIBLY, i really really want her to experience all she can before she starts working full time at home. :) love you sister. <333 She's my best friend and my everything. :)

Saturday we went to Kale's house for the UFC fights. The fights were good. The Anderson/Griffion fight was weird. Everyone swears the fact that Griffin was paid to throw the fight. Suuuuper weird. Then the BJ Penn fight was awesome. Even though KenFlo tried to take him to the floor by pushing him agains the wall MOST of the fight...BJ conquered ofcourse!! He was in MUCH better shape than his GSP fight. BJ! BJ! BJ! Then Lucy & her college friend Filiz came down to talk story. Mygoshhh I have laughed that hard in a while. SO many stories Lucy has. Geez. We're getting together tonight us 4 and rachel because Lucy & Filiz leaves for NYC on Friday so One last get together until we see her in December!! Atleast by then we'll ALL be 21. woopwoop!! Lucy turned 21 in Feb. So long time ago already, then me & rachel turn 21 in October. So yeah. December will be FUN!!

Okay this is long. Have a good day! Toodles!

Wednesday

So far. I'm on page 43 of The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger. The movie adaptation comes out August 14th. Next Friday. I'm so excited to watch it. The book is awesome and I hope I finish reading it by at least daytime of next week Friday. :D Oh yeah. I love Rachel McAdams. She's an awesome actress. &&& Eric Bana. O-M-G. I looooooved him in Troy & Lucky Seven. MMMmmmm. OMG. even though he's married & has a few kids, he's still on my top 5 list.

Babe was supposed to come over for dinner last night. I was all excited & sister even invited her boyfriend over for dinner. BUT babe got caught up with payment stuff for his new car since he scratched it a few weeks ago and he needed to schedule the rust proff. So now since that's done with and after a few horrendous phone calls, he's coming over tonight after he's done work at 7. Hopefully he ACTUALLY does come over. && hopefully it'll be a great night.

I need to stop by MAC on the way home. Here's some things on my list that I've been eyeing to get:

- Quite Natural Paintpot
- Mulch Eyeshadow
- Blanc Type Eyeshadow
- Bare Slimshine
- Brush cleaner

I'm out of my cleaner. OMG that thing is my holygrayle for cleaning my brushes. I feel so lost when I don't have anymore. It's like part of my daily makeup routine. Clean brushes during and after I'm done with my makeup.

&& then I wanna stop by Don Qujiote afterwards. Jeez. I've only been there once yesterday and mann I gotta go there more often. Sister and I met Mom there because we needed to buy sister's cheer bonding favors and stuff. & when I went in the makeup isle. holy crap. so cheap. it's like Longs ON SALE...all the time & I wanna pick up some NYX lashes too. So cheap there. & I wanna get the NYX jumbo eye pencils. I don't have any of them but I've been reading up about them and theres a few in mind I wanted to get & guess what. So cheap. Haha.

That's all. Laters.

Friday day

Even through all of the thinking and venting and complaining...it think this week has been pretty good. BUT i think i might have relapsed about this whole issue. After work the other day, I went to jsoh's house because we wanted to cook dinner. my goshhhdammn it was hella good. Hamburger steak with onion rings. I must say even though I'm not in culinary anymore, i still LOOOOOOOVE cooking. Especially with babes because he makes cooking fun and he always has questions to do things right. :) & then we just cruised at his house & before I knew it....I was too tired to drive home so I crashed over. That was the part where I relapased. Ughhhhh. I don't know. I mean I wanted to crash over and he had no problem with it if I went home but I guess it's just easier to cave sometimes. I don't know. But Babe and I haven't been arguing lately. which I'm SOOOOOOOO happy about. We had a few talks this week and I feel alot better that we're not arguing anymore.

Okay. So You Think You Can Dance? last night. OMG. I mean I know it's the finale next week and they're counting down the dancers but OMG I had no idea who was gonna go home. I mean I kinda thought Evan was going because he had such a bad review from the judges last night and I didn't think he did that we'll either but Ade went home. pooo. Owell. I LOVE kayla & brandon. I think they'll go head to head for the title. They make awesome partners & they're both HOT. haha. but I really liked melissa for her ballet....and then again i really like jeanine. ahhh they all win!! haha. But for the finale...I'm really rooting for Brandon or Kayla!!! :)

Sister came home today. For the past 8 days she's been on the Big Island with her boyfriend Makani and his mom. Luckyyy. They invited her to go since Makani won tickets for a 3 day stay on the B.I. so they made a little family vaycay out of it. So yeah. & only got him & his mom down here. He's not real close to his dad's side and her family all live in Seattle/Canada area up in the mainland. So she was real lucky to go. But she's back & I've missed her. But I don't know if I'll see her until laaaaater tonight or tomorrow cause Babe and I might go out & my car is on this side might as well.

Anywhoos. That's all for now. Peace lovers. Have a great weekend.

Sesh.

I need this summer to hurry up. I wanna be busy again, like with school and work. I mean even though in the past I haven't been the best with schooling (even in high school), i really wanna try hard this year. I mean just Fall & Spring semesters then I'm done with KCC. I'm getting out after I get my AA. Late huh. It'll be my 4th year in college & i'll only have a 2 year AA degree. I mean I know atleast 1 degree is better than none, but seriously. I wish I could go back to freshman year of college and stay on track with my Liberals. I would probable be at UH by now. Cause first I had Nursing, then Culinary, the now back to Liberals. But ahh whatever. No need for that irrelevant thinking ah.

Since I changed majors a few times and that I kinda wasted money on school, my parents think I should just get my AA and find a job already. I understand where theyre coming from by I really want to strive for my BA in...something. English I'm thinking. For now anyway. Atleast a BA. Then I'll go looking for a full time job in using that degree. It seems like college has just started and ending at the same time and then just in a few years...working full time and saving up for a car...house..and the rest of my future.

I really need to clean my room. It's only Wednesday and it's a mess! I betta jump on that NOW. haha. I heard this song on FM100 yesterday but I don't know the name. It's a new reggae song. Idk. I recorded some of it on my blackberry so I guess i'll just ask babe if he knows what song it is. I miss him. I haven't seen him since Friday night. I was supposed to see him last night when me, jojo, & antonio went to go watch movies. We invited him but he didn't feel like going. poo. :( but anyways. We say The Ugly Truth. OMFG. I didn't expect it to be so funny. We was cracking up. I mean I knew it was gonna be about them falling in love after they hate each other but there was so much sexual humor in it. omg my cousins was rollin.

Anyway just a vent sesh. <3

Ciao lovers.

Rambling..

I feel like sometimes I'm being pulled into too many different directions. You know? & I sometimes I don't even know it's what I want to be doing. I feel like when I want something...it usually does not happen & I always have to adjust to keep the peace of the situation. Like with the boyfriend...I feel like I give-in too much in doing things that he wants to do. -_-

I don't know. & plus this weekend too. Birthday Bash weekend. I really really wanted to go with Babe. But he doesn't want to go. He just wants to drink with the boys. & I told him now since he's 21 he can drink inside. But he doesn't want to now. & then his friend's got a hotel room. & I guess I'm excited for that. But see....again....adjusting...

& then with sister. Oh yes I love her and she's my best friend but I feel like sometimes she gets hypocritical. Like she's always complaining on how I'm never home or never with her because I'm always with Joshua. BUT-- she's always with her friends...at practice...with her boyfriend. I mean come on. Her first priority is school & her boyfriend too. So why does she jump down my throat about shit when she does it too. Plus the timing is all wrong. Whenever she's home with mama&dad then I'm out. & then whenever I'm home she's always out. I don't know what to do sometimes.

Atleast lately it's been good with Mom. I mean for a long long while I never liked being home because whenever I was home, since I wouldn't see her much...all she would talk to me about is school, work, & josh. Which at the time I hated school, work sucked, & dealing boyfriend troubles. So after Mom and I had a few long talks about school & figuring out what I want to do with my life and how she's been laying off about being out all the time thing....My goshhh it feels good. Like we're talking more and I haven't felt that way since the begining of the year. It's been a while. So we're good. thankgodd.

Anyways. Still crossing my fingers about the job. :)

Peace lovers.

THIS.

I'm so excited. I finally got another shot. I just hope I don't blow it again. Another interview. **crossing fingers** I hope I do well. So for now I'm just gonna brush up on some knowledge before August 11th. :) I'm more confident now than how I was a few months ago on the first interview. *shakes head* but now I know how it will go and I just need to practice and get better. :) I know that Babe is happy because he knows I been looking for a second job since money has been so tight. :) But anyways, that's all.

I love the way this girl does her eyeliner. I always do my eyeliner this way. With the wing and all. I guess I just need to practice because my eyes are always never identical. Like when I do my right eye, I love it and then I have trouble with the left. I mean I used the exact same product && brush but ahh. Idk. Just practice, practice, practice...

Peace lovers.

what a way to start off my day...

Babe had to save my ass again today. Thanks babe!

So this morning I get a call from ASB that my account is in the negative and if I don't deposit money today then they'll charge me a $30 overdraft fee. Mustabeen cause I had to pay for fricken college. ugh. anyway. So yeah and then after I dropped off Mom at her job (because mom's car was out of commision so...my sister and I have the lovely task of taking her where she needs to go). Then I went to ASB to deposit money. That money was meant for gas, breakfast, and parking and I was wayyy clear from the negative So after I put gas and got breakfast, I knew I still had extra money to take out for parking. So I got into work at 10:30 and for my parking lot by my job pays by every hour. So every hour is $1.50 except the first two hours are $.75 each. So I've been here for about 2 hours and I wanted to move my car to save some extra cash. So I go to the ATM and guess what...I'm still effing in the negative! && I got the overdraft charge! I'm pissed. So I gotta go there after work and figure out why. Ughh. So in the mean time I have no money. Luckily Babe gets off work the same time as I do so he's gonna swing by my job & pay my parking. Ughhhh I hate when I rely on other's for money. I ALWAYS pay for my own shit. I don't ask my parents or boyfriend for no nothing. We'll boyfriend pays for me when we go out and sometimes he gives me cash when I need. But USUALLY I always pay for my own stuff.

I'm gonna be runnin tight with money ill atleast October since I gotta make monthly payments for my college. We'll I mean I don't make alot as it is. Babe's right. I need a new job....or atleast a second one.

My idea is that since I graduate in May. Then during the summer I can look for a full time job. Plus I think taking a break from school for a while sounds good. Make money and such. I just don't know what I wanna go into since everything cost monayyyyy. I've made a list of things I would like to do...after graduation with AS in May:

1. BA in English from UH & go into writing books or for the newspaper or something in that field.
2. Take that makeup master course I was supposed to do this past July & re-apply at MAC.

I love creative writng & I love makeup.

Choices...choices....

I'll get back later.

LOVE.

Thoughts

Best I ever had.

Gosh, I love that song.

Poor babe. Boyfriend is having a worst week. First he cut his hand at work & got 7 stiches. Then he scratched his car. :(....It's not his week. :) But ahhh gonna be fine.

Forever 21 is seriously my new favorite store. I mean Charlotte Russe used to be it, but for the past few times I just can't find something that I'm like "OMGGGG I gotta get that". yah know? I love Express too but F21 is sooo much more affordable...especially with my broke ass.

Just paid part of my tuition for KCC Fall 09 semester. Gaash. One more year there then transfering to UH. hopefully. I'm really striving for it. Gonna work my ass off these next 3 years.
I wanna major in English & go into creative writing and writing books and stuff. :) That would be boss.

Hahah. Just my thoughts for the day. Peace loves.
