love / hate

things i hate:

>halo. i will admit its nice to have him occupied with something so i get a chance to do these blogs without being scrutinized.

>bouts of bladder infections in less than a month. maybe TMI and a little disgusting. i'm not dirty i swear. i carefully wipe front to back. (the culprit might be excessive caffiene and poor nutrition ???...which explains my higher daily intake of fruits, which you'll read about later...) I wince everytime I pee because it hurts and burns and feels like I have to pee even more AFTER I pee, yet nothing comes out.

>not being able to have sex because of said bladder infection.

>being cold.

>ex girlfriends who text your boyfriend at 12:30 on friday nights (yes, 2 CONSECUTIVE FRIDAY NIGHTS) asking him what he's doing. HE'S WITH HIS GIRLFRIEND YOU DUMB DUMB WHORE.



things i love:


~the thrill of driving in the carpool lane when i'm the only one in the car. in broad day light. during traffic. when people can easily see no one is in my car and judge me. EFF.YOU. Washington State Department of Transportation!

~fruit. can't get enough of it. i had 3 HUGE asian pairs just now. in one sitting. i love slicing green apples into cubes and slicing banana's and then forking them together. the banana offsets the tartness of the apple and the apple makes the banana less bland. perfect. i've also discovered that i prefer my banana's unripened.

~lazy sunday mornings. and not the "recovering from a saturday night" lazy sunday morning, but the refreshed, waking up at 7am laying around doing nothing until about 3 PM, sunday morning. :) its nice because you've gotten 8 hours of laziness in, but you still have time to be productive before u have to go to bed... like this post....at 11:33PM!

(i really didn't lay around doing nothing for 8 hours... i cooked breakfast around 12...haha)

my friday night

I know, I'm super awesome.



I was at walgreens again and saw that they had other varieties of thefaceshop masks in stock. I had to try them, especially the pearl one (which is what I'm photographed wearing..)

For greater skin hydration and elasticity

For clearer skin

Helps protect skin cells from sun damage, makes skin look youthful

For comforted and revitalized skin


So right now, it is actually Monday and I put off publishing the post because it got late and I was too tired to write anything. I am killing time before a doctors appointment and a long journey back to portland.
My thoughts on these masks:
I did the aloe one yesterday (sunday) with my friend, who did the Vita E mask. This would be my third mask (out of the 8 that I've bought). I've given most of them away to friends to try. But the ones that I have tried have basically made my skin feel smoother and exfoliated (without actually being exfoliated..). As for the actual functions of each mask, I'm not sure they do what they claim to do. Considering you're suppose to use the same mask 2-3 times a week to get the results they claim, I can't really say if they genuinely work. What I can say is, they haven't broken me out, no adverse affects, and they make me feel pretty. haha.

My friend who tried the Vita E mask said she felt a little stinging/burning sensation. But she has sensitive skin. So if you do, use these with caution. :) But I think they're generally harmless.

Just wanted to leave you with an artist I'm totally digging right now:

Grammy winner for best new artist: ADELE
I left in such a hurry, I forgot to burn her cd for the drive to portland. I'm pissed.
Download her LIVE cd. Her voice and music is so refreshing and soulful.

She beat the Jonas Bro's in this category.
Thank. God.
I have so much more to say about this, but I must shower.

its tar-get... NOT tar-jhay,,, UGH

I've been trying to find the perfect digital camera for a long time now. While perusing the awesomeness that is Target, I found a sony digicam for 89!!! And then I found an even BETTER sony digicam for 99 (it was pink)!!! I had been thinking about it for a couple days. Finally went back today and thought... today is the day I buy myself a camera that is not a piece of crap. But of course, I had to think about it some more. So I walked through the store to think and went on a picture frenzy with the camera on my phone.

Some things I found that made me love Target even more:






Yeah... I did that...

Why do they always show cute stuff like that, but not have it in store?!!


I want this pie dish!!!

Can I be a little kiddd?!!!!!

So after going around taking all these random pictures and killing my phone battery, I decided that I was just going to buy it. I had so much fun taking all these pictures with my phone, imagine just how much more fun it would be to use a real camera. haha.

Too bad they were out of stock. of both cameras. Sadness all over my face.

I finally got my hands on some BB CREAM


Rojukiss Spot Light Blemish Balm Cream
I linked it to a really great, detailed overview of the product above.




My friend went to taiwan and picked this up for me. It retails for about $40. I never really see people using this brand of BB Cream. I mostly see L'egere, BRTC, Missha, etc. etc... I was hesitant about using this because of that fact. I read it was hard to blend/spread, and the color was gray-ish.

After trying it, it is pretty thick, but blendability was fine. I just have to moisturize alot, and I do that anyway. I like the thickness because I think the staying power is better with that kind of consistency.

The grayness was not apparent to me. It is pretty light on me (I am an NC 30-35, MUFE HD 125) but I find that it dissappears after application and just gives me a nice glow. But I'm positive I will not be able to use this in a few months when I get TiZzAnnnnn.

I use it as a make up base, under my MUFE HD foundation. The problem I had with the HD was that it made my skin really flakey. To my surprise, this bb cream has helped with my HD foundation application tremendously!

bb cream, hd foundation 125, hd powder, nars laguna bronzer, nars orgasm blush

Overall: love love love...

Person I like: Audrey Tautou in Priceless








I have yet to see this movie, but from the looks of these stills, it is filled with french fashion awesomeness!!! She is absolutely gorgeous. The costumes in this film are (in my opinion) definitive of style: effortless, simple, and classic.

wet n wild

My favorite default eyeshadow trio as of late is Wet n' Wild's Mega Eyes Trio: Mojave Mauve


This is great daytime/work makeup.
At 2.99 for this trio (Walgreens), I sure bought 2 more of these....

Venetian Violets


Amazon Greens

My camera battery died before I was able to take more swatch photos. :(

But I can tell you that these shadows are awesome! They're very pigmented, maybe a little bit of fallout, but its all about how you apply them. The color combos are great. And you can smoke it up with some black shadow to make it a sexy night time look...

I think I will pick up another one today while I wait for my prescription to be filled. :)


Egyptian Sands
Pretty, neutral browns.




Me doing my best beyonce single ladies dance move...........
How this is relevant?

......I'm wearing mojave mauve! :)
