Trip to the bathroom = my downfall

WARNING: very long sentences.. with a total of like.. 3 pictures.. would advise you to read only if you are EXTREMELY bored. TOOTS sweets!

What? Did I take a massive crap and die due to suffocation from my own fumes?!?!?

No, not really. But I'll get back to that incident when I get to it in my blog! :) That's right.. chronologically ordered.... in my mind.


Ok Sarah Sakamo-FREAKING HO-to, you're up first!!!!

I wish I could've video taped or recorded this. Sooo.. :) my old high school bestie decided to give me a birthday .. surprise.. box! I went by her house to drop off the eyeliners I told her I'd pick up for her ... uhhh... like.. an hour and a half from my ORIGINAL time (waking up was hard!!) soo I ended up missing her but I gave it to her mom and in return, I picked up my INTERESTINGLY wrapped birthday present! I thought I'd figure out how to open it up later on that night since you know, at first glance, you think it's this pretty box because you know.. SARAH IZUMI SAKAMOTO would NEEEEEEEVER be as mean as to make a package ALMOST FREAKING UN-OPENABLE.

I WOULD have taken a picture of it pre-destructed, but you know.. I came to hate the packaging so much, I did what a normal person would do. Scizzored the HELL OUT OF IT. Oh, but no, she wasn't down with her.. multiple layers of HEAVY DUTY SCOTCH SHIPPING TAPE AND PAPER.. no no, she just had to scotch up the box pretty well itself. OH ho ho, nothing my pair of scizzors couldn't handle. But what's this? I find.. rolled up notebook paper, obviously concealing something inside.. but.. ya that's right. Scotched up like mummies.

I thought MAYYYYYBE they were long love letters to me about how much she loves me and my tardiness always you know? For instance, one contained a nude lippie! I thought the paper around it might've said something like.. "Roses are red, you love food, What's this she said? I got you nude!" Or you know.. a love poem ;) because you love me more than your boyfriend, but no! I painstakingly put away my scizzors.. and worked on unwrapping.. heavily packing tape-wrapped NOTEBOOK PAPER.. :( to find I could've just cut it all along!!

YO DAMN PACKAGE TOOK ME 20 MINUTES TOTAL TO OPEN because I kept thinking "what if it's a note" on evvvvvvery notebook wrapped item!!!!! T_T you skank, I hate you. I sat on your wrapping paper and on your notebook papers, THAT'S what I think of them!!!! :) HEHEHEHE!! Pics of what she got me in the next blog, I haven't charged my camera yet!


The week at my parents' house
Ahh.. spring break.. how you came and went. For some reason.. during the whole week, I couldn't go to sleep at ALL until 6 AM. It was so weird.. I think maybe since I'm not WORRIED about waking up early.. my brain decided that it's ok to just completely ruin my sleep cycle. I was waking up at like.. 1-1:30 PM everyday!! WOAH. Talk about wasting away half the day right? I can't say that I did anything special during my spring break except sleep.. eat.. sleep.. relax. But this past Friday, my mom, my dad, my lil sis, her bf Ross, me, and Christian all decided to go to the Melting Pot in Downtown Brea for dinner!

I'll say this, while I sincerely think they are ripping you off, it's a pretty worthy experience if you've never had a fondue type meal you know? Desserts are BOMBBBBBB. That being said.. I ate so much of what I SHOULDN'T have eatten.. and woohoo.. break outs on my forehead and one on my upper lip. YAY for me. What do I consider a rip off? Oh you know.. $44 per person, so a couple is $88. I actually had a gift card for $100 there, so me and Christian were free!

MMMM.. speaking of.. ok nothing related at all, daddy's going to Taiwan this Tuesday for his annual trip! I want him to bring me back some stuff.. but he's just going to get on my case about how much make up stuff I already have... ;( HMPH. Revenge.. :) I'm taking his Mercedez on a joyride. My dad seriously thinks he's like.. the shit in that car. He won't let anyone else get in the car until HE plants his ass firmly down in the drivers seat first.. puts on his black shades.. checks himself in the mirror.. then unlocks the door for us. EEEEEEverytime I'm in the car, he's like.. "do you like my car" and it's always ".... yes daddy" and then it's always "do you want to drive it?" and it's always "yes daddy...." and then it's always "PUAHAHAHA NEVER"

hmph.


Clubbing at Avalon on Saturday
First role since New Years!
Not for readers who detest drugs. You've been warned!

Ahh.. the long awaited joint clubbing event to celebrate both me and Matt (mutual friend of bf and I).. celebrate what? OUR BIRTHDAYS! His birthday is TECHNICALLY today.. err.. yesterday.. since now it's Monday .. TECHNICALLY.. and my bday was on March 18, so we just met in the middle-ish!

The day started out ok, my mom brought over my little cousin Ting Ting and I played with her a little before getting ready to go pick up Christian. She was coughing and sneezing but I thought it was just her allergies because it's basically spring now you know? My mom's side tends to be chalk full of allergies.. (sadly I am victim to this.. I'm allergic to .. everything.. it's sad). So, I pack up all my clean laundry, drive to Christian's.. and that's when the day started to suck. I got stuck in traffic for an hour and 20 minutes.. drenched with sweat because HAHAHAH.. silly me.. I thought MAYBE since it's still winter-ish.. I'd wear a long sleeve black shirt and some jean shorts. I was already very hesitant about using my A/C too because I didn't want my engine to work harder than it's already working.. why? Oh.. fear of power failure I guess you can say. My car was a dick and decided not to run about 3 weeks ago remember? I had it jumped and he said that should last me a little while. So.. lately, when I turn on the ignition.. it lags like no other.. and ALMOST sounds like it won't catch.. so I caved in.. and we went to Pep Boys to get a new battery installed.. *tear* .. about $120.. they said the wait time would only be like.. 30 mins right? So we go to.. *sigh* bf drags me to McDonalds.. I really don't like Mcdonalds.. not only because it smells weird.. but because EEEEEVERYTIME I eat it.. my stomach ends up hurting and I take massive craps. Did this curse end?

*drum roll please*

hell no. When we got back to Pep Boys, I had to make a bee-line for the bathroom. Gross huh? :( Ok but no really.. even after the 10 minutes that I was in the bathroom.. and we spent like 40 at Mcdonalds just burnin time.. my car wasn't even up!! Waited another 30 mins.. rushed over to PC Bang to find Thomas for pills.. but we had JUST missed him and he scampered off to some guy's house in Huntington Beach.. which was a good 30 minute drive from where we were.. so no. But we ran into Sam, who happened to have left overs from How Sweet! We picked up 8 total, 2 for babe, 2 for me, 2 for jason, 2 for matt, 2 for.... oh shit. We realized he didn't have enough, so basically one person wasn't going to be happy. Couldn't find Thomas so we had to just leave it as it was and figure it out later.

Went back to my apartment.. which took like 40 minutes, to get ready!! SAD SAD SAD. I had this cute top to wear.. but no shorts to match (i HATE pants.. too restricting).. so I was left with my New Years club dress which is cute but you know.. previously discovered if not worn carefully, things will ride up. Haaaaaaaaa.. yea. So what did I do? I wore my SHINGS.. lol, what is this shings I speak of? Glad you asked! Leggings I cut into short shorts, now I'm happy, the bf is happy, you're happy! No worries.. they were these purple leggings I got on sale for like.. 2 bucks because it was buy 2 for $4 at Wet Seal like.. 3 months back. Never wore them, now I have!

Makeup-wise, I went for the usual.. smokey silver/grey. For some reason.. it just didn't come out RIGHT. I couldn't fix it and in the end.. gave up, called it a day. LOL. I also used lashes I had never actually USED before.. so they were a little uhh.. darker/dramatic than I'm used to. MOST LIKELY, not wearing again. I tried mixing my foundations for better coverage for the night.. (god what a time to be experimenting RIGHT?? WTH WAS I THINKING?) so my face color was.. I don't know. It just seemed kinda weird.. but even now when I look at the pictures.. I don't like it but I can't figure out WHY. Well.. whatevers. Here you go!

*shakes fist at lashes*


-.- Anyone else think I look kinda.. OLD?


AHHHH so here come the fun stories. By fun, I don't mean fun. Things just went wrong from the get-go. I had asked my friend Raymond if he thought I should cancel going to Avalon like.. LAST LAST WEEK.. because I had this gut feeling it was a bad idea to go so close to the quarter starting you know? He said it was up to me.. so I just bit the bullet since everyone was so excited to go. OH OH OH! SOOOO funny!! The day OF the club, Pen (penpal26) texted me and asked if I wanted to go clubbing because her friend from the bay was coming down to see his gf! Turns out they were planning on going to Avalon too!! :D

So me and Christian get there first, hang out in the car in Valet for a little, found out Matt, Randy and Jason were already in line, so we go meet them up.

HAHAH.. "fun" begins. We're almost to the front of the line.. and then nobody is let in for like.. 40 minutes. It's night, it's cold, I'm wearing a short dress (but with a jacket!).. :( my poor legs. So after chillin in line.. (pun intended, yes lame).. we get to the front.. and Christian realizes he CAN'T FIND HIS DRIVERS LICENSE in his wallet, even thought I told him to double check when we were back at the apartment, and he gave me one of those "ya ya it's in here" chants. Men should always listen to their girlfriends. They're lives would be a lot healthier that way. All my lil babe had on him was a copy of his green card with an old ass picture.. and a copy of his SS (and he's like.. the OLDEST one in the group!! LMFAO! Ironic) The bouncer gave him a REALLY hard time (no shit) because babe looks like he's 17. Matt convinced him to just test him on some info and the guy noticed the green card was from France. Christian was like.. YES TEST ME ON FRENCH! Now.. my little darling came over to the US when he was 6 years old, obviously if you don't practice French enough.. you = broken french = not understandable = screwed. Like.. babe knows french but there's a lot of vocab he's forgotten and I suppose the structure of certain sentences. The bouncer happens to be.. yes.. a French major.

*clap clap clap*

Christian does manage enough for him to believe that he didn't NOT know french.. so after a lot of convincing, he just tested him on his info, SS, and finally.. IN. :) Now.. I on the other hand, proudly displayed my ID and even pointed at the date and he smiled one of those "haaaa you're birthday" smiles. We all got in, but, the club itself hasn't ACTUALLY opened and it was like.. 10:15 at this point.. so that was kind of strange. Apparently they were busy putting up new projectors and screens or something.. so nobody actually got INSIDE until 11:30 PM. WHAT.. THE.. yea I know. Seems like all day I've been doing nothing but waiting, rushing, waiting, rushing, ughhh. I just wanted to relax. We found this nice spot on this.. sorta wall-ish looking thing, you know, one that you can just hop on and sit on?

*fast forward*

Pen, Alex, James (friend), Ashley (friend's gf) finally came! Dunno what time it was, was close to feeling pretty good so time had no meaning to me. OMG! The first time I saw Ashley, I thought she was a model!!

*fast forward*

We're all pretty messed up, just chilling, saw/encountered lots of weirdos, pervs, old people, pervs, pervs.. you get the picture. Fun encounter stories? You bet.

My darling wanted to go out and smoke with Jason, but I didn't want to leave my left side empty because I didn't want some weirdo sitting near me, so Matt jumps up to sit there until Christian comes back. Like.. 10 mins roll by and the guy next to Matt accidently spills his drink and Matt jumps off in time to avoid it. It basically stopped at the crack which was an inch away from me, so i was safe. Here's where it gets weird. There's two mid-aged guys trying to clean it up with tissues.. and the one closest to me, which was NOT THAT CLOSE.. takes a step towards me and WIPES HIS FUCKING GROSS AS WET HAND ON MY LEG.. not a accident brush but like I was a towel. CAN YOU SAY GROSS?!?!?!?!?!?

So since the seat was wet, Matt went off to dance with Randy (who'd sit on a wet spot right?) but a few minutes later, some guy had napkins with his drink so he just wiped the rest off and sat there. I just sat there staring off into space waiting for Christian to come back.. then this fat white chick comes up to the dude on my left (he's like 4 inches away).. and she starts YELLING at him and like.. pulled him to the left and jumped in the OBVIOUSLY NOT HER SIZE-NEVER WAS MUCH OF A SPACE THERE place.. oh so you might think, how does that work? No space to fit in.. what to do? I'll tell you. She had me bending a bit to my right and her disgusting sweaty armpit was on my ARM. What's with people and their DAMN FLUIDS? Now this is just me remember what I actually saw that night. At the time, I didn't think much of ANYTHING, so I had thought she was just some rude lesbian because she started like.. rockin out to the music, very obviously moving her hips violently to move me more to the right but it's pretty damn obvious the wall was packed enough as it was. You fit, or you don't. :) This soldier braced herself and didn't budge.. so the lesbian.. thing.. whatever she was.. resorted to nastier measures.. and started swinging her hair side to side.. WHIPPING ME IN THE GODDAMN FACE, and I very freaking obviously grab the hair that lands on my lipgloss and move it away and she just stares at me with one of those looks like "if you don't like it, move" and honestly, I had the attention span of a goldfish she was pretty much ignored after a good 4 minutes. BF came back and he came to stand in front of where I was sitting on the wall. Decided to wrap my arms around my darling, making my hug as wide as it could be, I'd like to emphasize on elbows extended outwards, pushing LESBO to learn on HER DAMN LEFT.. she finally grabbed her dude and left after another 3 mins so BF hopped back up.

*Fast forward*

Ahh the cake topper of my fluids stories I suppose. Ok so it's like.. 3 AM and I'm floored. Everything was just bright and happy for me. Ashley's sitting on my right and she shows me this black clutch and asking something but it was so loud in I couldn't could only hear like 3 words so in the end I thought I heard "Can you hold my clutch?" So I just dropped it on my lap because I thought it'd make more room. 40 mins go by and I'm still pretty messed up, when i look to my right and I see Pen and Ashley jumping off the wall and I'm like.. Why are they jumping off? Then this weird ass mexican chick is telling me to just move and get off so I was like.. woah.. misjudged the distance from the ground and my heels, ended up stumbling/losing my balance but not falling. Some empty bottles to the left fell and also the clutches in my lap so I tried balancing myself and reached for my clutch and when I look up that mexican chick had grabbed the other black clutch and was shoving it in my face and was yelling "THIS IS MINE, YOU STOLE MY PURSE" so I'm THOROUGHLY confused and I said "what?" and the bitch just SHOVES ME!! She made me fall once and now twice, luckily I didn't hit my ass because Christian grabbed my arms but when I got up completely.. she was already heading out the hallway. Like.. WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED?? It started clicking in my head that Ashley probably asked me if it was MINE.. but I completely freaking misunderstood her and I felt really bad for making that.. animal/person/thing .. think that I stole it on purpose.. but that chick didn't even stay around for me to ask her WHY she even pushed me!! It's like.. *blame, shove, run*

At this point I was pretty much scared out of my mind, because the whole fall, yell, shove happened pretty damn fast right from when I turned my head.. but what can I do?? I just put my clutch on the wall again and bent down to pick up my water bottle.. when I'm full front up, I see her rushing right up to me but from BEHIND the wall thing (distance.. good idea girl..) and she grabs a cup of half empty water there and DUMPS IT ALL OVER ME, throws the cup, calls me a bitch, and runs out....... again.

I'm not skimping out on details.. that's how it freaking happened.. my boyfriend was right next to me and when I asked him what happened he told me exactly the same things that I remember seeing.

God.. I know I'd be probably mad too if I were her but I'd at least ask something like "why do you have it" or like "did you accidently mix mine up with yours?" .. I wouldn't .... attack.... I'm seriously referring to it like it was an attack.. someone over that.

AND WTH.. even if I WAS a thief.. I'd be a lot smarter than that. I would've taken your shit, dumped your clutch in the trash and LEFT.. not fucking sit around the same damn area ASKING to be caught with TWO CLUTCHES in an open publicly displayed area aka.. lap. And wow, who the hell leaves their clutch alone on a wall surrounded by strangers. You're just ASKING for it to be jacked.

UGHHHHH.. pretty much a still-rolling-emo when I left, my curse tripled with this trip. You see.. everything I go to the club, some form of liquid is ALWAYS spilled on me.. most of the time it's accidental.. like idiots who can't hold their drinks up straight. This time, it got deliberately wiped on my leg, I got a big lesbo sweating over me because she was having a hissy fit, and then I got water splashed on me on purpose.. mmmmm.. lucky me. Usually I only get fluid-fied ONCE during the whole outting. Lucky lucky me.

To top it off, when I got back to the apartment, we were trying to go to sleep.. but I had to go to the bathroom, so I just got up and walked. I have this issue where I HAVE to sit up for at least 2 minutes if I've been laying down for more than 30 minutes before I can stand up and walk or else I end up blacking out. Why this happens? HELL IF I KNOW.

I thought I had walked into my bathroom but then all I remember is seeing the door.. turns out I didn't even make it past my bedside wooden table.. I basically ended up blacking out, hitting my head on the sharp edge of the table, did a 360 the other way and smacked my crown of my head on the floor. I think I scared my BF because he was the one sleeping next to the table. So.. since it was like.. 7 Am.. I decided fuck it.. my head's pounding.. I feel like crap.. so I'm going to shower. I let myself rest on the floor for a little, then get up, still see purple hazy spots, go shower, come out feeling clean but now my head's killing me, still see purple hazy spots, my vision is blurry but it clears up after laying down for a little after my shower..

hmm.. could I have almost given myself a concussion this time? And why can I never land on a nice carpeted surface?!??! I always end up fainting on hard wood floors or tiles, and hitting the top of a table or the leg of one.

.......... How many brain cells am I losing?? This whole.. getting up too fast and blacking out thing has been happening since.. I don't know.. Junior year of high school? it's kind of weird.. but it happens VERY rarely now.. ahh..

ok, I'll stop moping, I have class tomorrow morning.

Don't worry, I'm fine. Things happen, life goes on.

Till next time!

Katie

ps- I'll leave you a picture of what I made for dinner tonight for me and the hubby.. my super delicious Chicken Curry and Rice!

:) Get it while it's hot!



:) I like my potatoes in bigger pieces, it's more yummy!!

ahhh sleep. I'm overdoing it. LOL.

;( I'm so ashamed of myself.

Like.. ever since the quarter ended and I came back to stay at my parents' home.. I've been sleeping so much everyday and waking up at like.. 12-1 PM!! WTH!!?? Who sleeps that much right?? I keep feeling like I've wasted half my day already but then I don't care and then roll over and sleep again!! boo hoo.. :( I'm so lazy!!

On the plus side, I get to finally eat someone else's cooking OTHER THAN MINE. WHEW!! And I don't have to clean up crap.

My favorite drink so far for the past 2 months.. not sick of it.. YET! ;)


Messin around last night.. :( Don't mock me! I was bored!!


Did I mention I was bored? :D


:) JJ Lin CD/DVD box set my uncle Robert got me from Taiwan as a surprise! I'll make sure to rub his buddha tummy as a thank you next time I see him!


So today I went shopping with my bubby!! :( Sad because since I'm staying at my parents' house.. I can't see him EVERY DAY.. my parents are very conservative.. and my dad gets made if I go out too much, stay out too late (by late, I mean even 11:30 pm), if I see Christian too much because he IS a boy after all.. ahhh well.. they're my parents.. what can I do?

Anyways, I got to see my bubby today and he took me to Westminster Mall to shop shop shop! Why Westminster mall you ask? uhh.. well actually it's because I wanted to check out some manga from the store there (nerd much.. yes). The lady there is very generous, she loves to give discounts and always fills me in on release dates, new story plot lines.. etc etc! I don't think I'll ever grow out of reading mangas or watching animes, ;) by the way, chinese lesson for you all! In Chinese.. anime is "manhua shu".. and if you live near Rowland Heights or San Gabriel.. the Life Plaza's there let you rent lots of manhua and you only have to pay a one time fee (cheap) until your card expires (long time)!! I've been doing it since I was a kid.. I think I've read half the books from the selection they have (big selection).. although.. it is strictly Chinese manhua.. no english.

Dude.. what was I writing about again? LOL!! I always get so sidetracked and go off on a tangent.. OH right (scrolled up) lol.. after checking those out, I remembered I had a Wet Seal giftcard because I returned something that was TOO BIG last time and I wanted to use it up! Soooo.. I did a little shopping, I loved the shirt I got in three colors last time, so I went and bought 5 more colors! They're normally $6.50 each.. but they were having a sale so I got 5 of them for only $20!!!! That's $4 each!! YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAYUH!!

"They're just plain shirts if you ask me" you might think.. well yea.. I'm always on the go, so I don't have time to dress up and shit except on the weekends (if even).. plus, I like plain shirts, patterns can go out of style or get tacky you know? Annnd, it's hard for me to find shirts that are the right length.. I hate shirts that are too short and these were perfect (I have a long torso)!! Plus, I picked up a cute jean skirt and a pair of shorts! Had to get more Zots candy too!! LOOOOOOVE ME SOME ZOTS!! fizz fizz fizz! My grand total was, drum roll please.. for the 7 articles of clothing.. only $65! Is that sweet or what? :) That's a third of the price of my jeans! LMAO!!

I'm debating about whether or not to keep the belts on them.. I like the left belt.. but not the right. It's kind of ugly.

LOL the Zots look like colorful condoms.


Hahaha.. funny story though. When I got up to the cash register.. I realized I forgot the gift card all the way in my car.. it could've paid for the skirt of the shorts! Oh well, I decided to just pay for it and use the gift card next time, I shop SOOOOO much at Wet Seal anyway, so it won't be long before I use it. Oh.. so after actually trying the bottoms on.. this is totally proof I've gained weight, besides my scale going gadurkader on me. I used to be able to fit into 00-0 bottoms.. ya lol, double zero.. but those are way too tight on me now and I settled on a size 1.. which is tight on me, but not TOO tight.. almost though.. like I know if I'm on my period and bloat up like I always do.. I know these will be too tight on those days. WEIRDDDD.

*sigh* I have a bad obsession with wanting to be skinny. My parents were seriously getting UP MY ASS about looking too skinny and stuff.. so I was basically FORCED to gain weight.. do I like my body now? NO. I caps-ed that. But my parents (and bf) think I look healthy now.. which I guess was what I was aiming for. I just can't shake off what I see in the mirror though.. I seriously just see.. flab! I think mentally I have issues (well no shit) but I'm starting to come to terms with things now.. baby steps lol.

JAPAN


Why did I just post up a picture of cute baggies of bunnies I got from my part Japanese aunt? Because that leads me to my next topic. I was checking out my first few entries.. and I realized.. I HAD NEVER SAID ANYTHING ABOUT THIS BEFORE! Not that it's a big thing for me because it hasn't made me different in any way but a few years ago, after talking with my grandma (dad's side).. I was curious why she knew so much Japanese. I had taken Japanese in High School just for kicks because I already took Spanish in Junior High (didn't like mexicanese).. and so when my grandma found out, she ALWAAAAAAYS wanted me to talk to her with Japanese (at least, what I could remember). Her Japanese has always been good and I remember her telling me once when I was little that she used to teach Japanese in the high schools in Taiwan during her youth.. but I never wondered "why?" .. and my dad is crazy good at it too. So I asked her why she was so good, she said it was because she wanted to know both her cultures.

Wait.. what? LOL right.

I found out my grandma is actually 1/4 Japanese, 3/4 Taiwanese.. so that means my dad is 1/8 Japanese.. which makes me, 1/16 Japanese.

Haaaaaaaa.. so I'm ALMOST completely Taiwanese.. but I do have Japanese blood in me. But when people ask me what nationality I am.. I usually just say Taiwanese, since I don't associate myself at all with my Japanese roots (I don't know them either) and plus.. the Japanese blood in me is SOOOOO diluted with Taiwanese.. I see no point in saying "oh i'm 1/16 japanese and 15/16 taiwanese".. doesn't that seem pointless to you? :) I'm very proud to call myself Taiwanese, if you haven't noticed (how can you not! I make it so obvious!) But I do still talk to my grandmother in Japanese.... broken.. foggy.. japanese.. because it makes her happy to know I'm not turning my back completely on the culture!

So there you go. Now you girls know a new fact about me. I've known for quite some time now and so does my little sister Jessica. Hahaha seriously though, you would've thought I would've figured this out earlier.. what with my blood aunt is part Japanese.. it just never clicked.

So.. SARAH IZUMI SAKAMOTO! ;) I thought of you when I was writing this post. What's up my fellow (... kinda) japanese sistahhhh? I'm totally kidding. LOL!! Surprise though right?? Wait.. did I tell you this already? I don't remember!!!!!

Ok so after that, I leave you a picture of my blackberry.. because I've never posted it up.. well actually.. just what's my homescreen. :) Bubby!!!!!!!


I love you darling!! I truly truly do!

He called me yesterday night.. and surprised me with a very deep and touching talk.. I cried.. but they were tears of joy.. my bf is the type of person who doesn't wear his heart on his sleeves like I do.. but he opened up completely last night out of the blue.. and shared so much with me.. the convo was very emotion filled.. and in the end he thanked me for listening.. but I asked why? Why did he thank me for listening to him spill out everything he's had bottled up inside? Was he thanking me for not judging him? Was he thankful for me not making fun of him? He said yes.

I told him, you should never have to be afraid to tell me anything. You should never have to ask me to listen to you. I'll always listen to you with all my heart, whether or not it's serious or just a joke. I've been with you for almost 3 years now, I know you inside and out. If you need to get things off your chest, I have two ears ready for the sound of your voice. Baring your feelings to me will never make me judge you and I would never make fun of you for trusting me, for being vulnerable, for wanting to find your self, for not wanting to dick around anymore, for growing up.

I love you baby, and I know you're reading this. :) Wo ai ni .. you remember that? I taught it to you so I HOPE you remember it.

Sorry girls if this got too sappy for you! It's just.. that call.. made me so unbelievably happy. I don't need big parties, dinners, or gifts for my birthday. I'm happy with just pure and true feelings, the kind I get from friends when they wish me a happy birthday, and my boyfriend, who was brimming with emotions that night.

Ok i'll stop being sappy.. I know it's killing you girls. :P

Rose whip!

Katie

*sighhh* SERIOUS lemming, and a lil about myself

-edit-
*sigh* as much as I love this list.. I'm going to stick to my normal hobos, :) I'll just put these on my Xmas wish list TEEHEE!! I think I'll learn more towards the Jimmy Choos, the Miu Mius, or the Michael Kors because those bags are more WEAR-ABLE.. I've seen some people carrying around those monogram purses such as Gucci, and they don't always match what they're wearing.. which is a big no no for me. I like my shit to be able to go with EVERYTHING I got. *sigh again* .... I need to invest in some sleeping pills. I'm having such a hard time sleeping lately.. it's not that I'm stressed or doing anything, but I just CAN'T shut my brain off while in bed. It's getting annoying.. and I've been getting headaches too..
-end edit-


Being the little bored child that I am, I was surfing the net for a new purse because the one I use is starting to get sorta worn (it's been through so much!!).

I generally stay away from expensive purses because I'm always too afraid of getting them dirrrrty you know? I'm QUITE the opposite of my little sister, she owns a new designer handbag (anywhere from 400-1000 bucks) every 2 months. However, we do share the same tastes in bags which is a plus if I ever want to borrow one. My mom's just as bad as my sister, if not worse. She has so many Dior, Coach, Fendi, Prada, Salvatore Ferragamo, Gucci, and Miu Miu bags that my head spins whenever I see them. Seriously though, I only like Gucci, Dior, and Miu Miu out of all those brands. Well.. Miu Miu is actually a branched off version of Prada..

:) BUT.. I've got some money from my birthday and I've been thinking that maybe I should just splurge on one! I currently own 2 designer bags, one was a gift and the other I bought but mm.. I don't really use it (the juicy couture one from Vegas). I'm TOTALLY LEMMING for a new purse now!! To save.. to splurge.. that is the question. So far this is a list of purses that I want!

Ok you're obviously going to see that I'm an avid LOVER of Gucci, Miu Miu, Michael Kors, and Jimmy Choo!! The only things that I'm willing to shell out money for are shoes, makeup, and electronics. My mom would love if I got into purses (she doesn't know I already have an eye for them) but my dad would cry! EHHEHEHE!!

Ok so my most FAVORITE AND ULTIMATE LEMMING is the very last picture.. save the best for last no? ;)

Gucci classic $630, 2 of my aunts have this and it's SOOOOOOO cute!! A lot more room than what it looks like!

Gucci new spring $730, same as above but it's the new Spring print with hearts! Super fucking cute if you ask me!

Gucci classic $750, such a cute every day bag isn't it!?!


Gucci classic $2250 *drool* I WANT I WANT!!

Jimmy Choo $2195, I've been diggin patent leather lately



Jimmy Choo $2450, I've never owned a suede purse before!!


Miu Miu $1095 (old).... GOD I LOVE MIU MIU


Miu Miu $2000 *sigh*


Miu Miu under $1000, not sure of the price! But it's LOOOOOOOOVE!


Marc Jacobs $498, nice and plain!


Michael Kors $498 ISN'T IT SEXY???



Now the best...................

Gucci $1595


I LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEE THIS BAG!! Ok, I did not discover this myself. My old co-worker Kristina Pham had gotten this as a gift from her (now ex) boyfriend and his family!! IT'S SOOOOOOOOO GORGEOUS LOOKING!! It can fit like... EVERYTHING in it and ... AHHH!!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE!!

I could've sworn I had a picture of a Dior purse.. oh well.

--ABOUT ME--

Ok so for those who know me, you'll PROBABLY know this already. But it's a bigger explaination for those who don't. Let's talk about money.

I know for some who first see my blog, you're all like.. "OMG WTH where's all your money coming from?" because of my hauls (i think they're little but yea..) and maybe from the few trips I've posted up (more on myspace and my actual laptop not posted yet though). I'm not doing this to rub money in your face, that's not how I am, I just want you to get to know me more, to understand me more. If that leaves a bad impression then I'm sorry, I truly am.

Let's talk relatives. My grandfather, now deceased (rip), was someone I had always been closest to. He had always wished I was born a son, a "son of the dragon" as he'd always say, but he spoiled me ROTTEN nontheless. He taught me how to fly a kite and always used to carry me on his shoulders (he was a tall one I tell you!) and always took me on his motorcycle for fun rides no matter how busy he was with work. He owned a major part of the public transportation system in Taiwan, based in the Taichung and Taitung, but it runs to all the major cities in Taiwan, including the capital of Taipei. Chances are, if you've ever visited Taiwan or you're a native, you've ridden our buses. I don't think I need to post the name because I don't get much readers from Taiwan here anyway. He also owned quite a few acres of land and 2 houses, one in Taitung, and one near Sogo Mall, ahahaha, yes, I said Sogo! A lot of people fought for the house there after he died (seriously.. how rude) but he was pretty specific in his will that he was leaving it for my dad until me and my sister come of age.

OMG story about that. My dad's older sister was pissed because SHE wanted the house, because come on.. it's worth A LOT since it's located right across from Sogo. She tried to get my grandpa to change the will while he was DYING.. and was saying stuff like "oh, Stanley doesn't deserve it. He lives in the US and he's never here, I have 3 children while he only has 2, I deserve it, blah blah blah" but my grandpa wouldn't change it and so she went to my grandma and convinced her to let her and her children stay at that house for a short while. Well.. grandpa passed away, and my father told her she had to move out but she refused and demanded that he sign over the deed of the house to her. My father refused and she threw a HISSY FIT over the house!! My dad wanted to clean up the house and rent it out so that at least someone was using it and he'd be giving the rent money to his mom for her own personal uses now that she was widowed and because she doesn't work. Well.. his sister just became even more psycho and started spreading rumors that he was being selfish and this and that. My dad got so sick of how she was acting so he signed his part of the deed, and even said to her face that in his eyes, he doesn't have an older sister anymore (aka.. kinda disowned her if he could actually do that) and my mom had to co-sign it because she was his spouse.. HOWEVER.. my mom got so angry that my dad's sister was acting like such a fool, she refuses to sign it even to this day. She's leaving it up to me to deal with her.. great mom great. LOL. My grandpa also left the future of his company to my dad along with all his property but since my dad can't be in Taiwan 24/7 (he goes back for a month once every year), he runs it jointly with his second youngest brother (who looks like his twin, but shorter). Dad said to brush up on my Chinese because he's leaving all he inherited to me because he doesn't want the government to take over the business, along with it's stock holdings. I'll worry about that later on after a decade or so. LOL. My fathers side of the family are very stingy and advocate good education, so almost all the guys are doctors in Taiwan now and the girls (including my cousins) are nurses and secretaries.

My mom's side................... I'll have to dedicate a whole other post about that next time, it's not a happy story, especially lately. It's not a sob story either, it's just an eye opener that actually taught me something, and I want to spread that. It's the type of shit that you THINK only happens in the movies but no, it's real, as real as the fact that there are still members of the KKK in our modern day society.

People raise their eyebrows when I say that my parents own a golf store. They're involved in wholesale and retail. A majority of their money actually come from their international business, they constantly import and export shipments to lots of retail stores in Korea, China, Japan, and India. I grew up playing golf, obviously, which is a good thing I suppose, it's known as the sport of business. They said they'd leave it up to me and my little sister to decide whether or not we wanted to sell the business in the future, but obviously they want us to continue it. That's... a little difficult because my sis wants to become a dentist, she's obsessed with teeth! Me? As the oldest, I'm stuck with the family responsibilities.. so I'm forced to obtain an MBA.

My mom handles the actual business and the finances (VERY well might I add) and my dad is more the FACE of the business.. he draws in more customers and reps from companies. Daddy loves to play in golf tournaments, both for money and for fame. There isn't a single golfer around that doesn't know my father's name because he's actually considered a scratch player, his handicap is in the negative numbers, and for those who don't golf, the higher your handicap is, the worse you're considered at playing. It's hard be a negative. I'm so proud of my daddy!! Because of his tournaments, he's taken us to places like Mexico, Hawaii, etc! He went to Germany too but I couldn't go, I had school. :(

-.- Dad's main income is actually from bets and wagers among his customers and friends. On average, if he plays 2 times a week, he rakes in 3-4 thousand dollars a week. Sheesh. He never guys me anything!!

Ok I'm done with typing.

Sorry if it's so long!

Katie

ps- if you find it useless, oh well! My blog, not yours! I actually discovered it doesn't answer anything but whatevers, I wanted to share my family with you guys

HEHEHEHE this is what friends are for

:) obviously not makeup related.. but it's hilarious, so I thought I'd share it.

I decided to comment on my friend Jolynn's facebook wall because you know.. that's what friends do right? :) Friends are supposed to leave you nice little messages to wake up to!



So I come back and find that she leaves me a response!



:) You guessed it.. almost every month for the past.. I don't know, year I'd say? I've been leaving her a comment either on her facebook or her myspace, telling her, she smells like poop. Is this a reflection of who I am? Yea.. I'd say that's pretty accurate. =) Per my request.. this is the girl who taught me how to say "you penis is small" in tagalog. Shame on you for not knowing your native chinese tongue! Well actually I can't blame her.. her chinese half is from a smaller region in China where the dialect is starting to fade, hell even I don't remember what region her mom told me she was from!

AWWW i was deleting old yucky pics from my laptop to make more space for future purposes and lookie what I found!! I believe these pictures were taken during our first year together!





I swear.. the stickie machines here are SOOOOO over priced and the quality is so much crappier than the ones in Taiwan.. Like.. my wallet literally CRIES here(8-10 bucks each now??) and over there (equiv to a lil less than about 3 bucks), my wallet sings.

AHH I miss Taiwan.. it's been what.. 6 years or so? We're planning another trip soon.. god I'm going to get so fat. I don't know how my cousins stay so skinny (they're TWIGS COMPARED TO ME!!) No joke.. my cousin Xi Yi came over to visit for like.. 2 months, and she was like.. 1/3 my size.. then when she left, she was only 1/2 my size and she was complaining about how fat she was! WHAT???? I should upload a pic.. she's TINY.

Ok that's all for now!

Katie

ps- i get to see my bubby tomorrow!! YAYY!!

har har har!!

No real update from me, pictures from my birthday dinner with the family are still on my sis's cam.. stupid me forgot it in the car!! I'd type out the details but my fingers feel like ice right now!! Decided to stay home because it's sunday and FUCKING COLDDDDDD!! When it gets cold, I usually hibernate (no really, i can't wake up before 1 pm no matter what) and I get very unmotivated to actually go out. 

:( I miss my bubby! 

So I'll be staying at my parents' house for this whole week.. for some weird reason I had thought my spring break was 2 weeks long but it's really only this week.. and then bamm.. back to school. That being said.. I might cancel my plans to Avalon that's supposed to take place this coming saturday.. but weekend before school starts? My gut tells me it's not a good idea.. but then again, I'm a goodie two shoes type of person so you can chalk it up to me being a boring old fart.

My little sister, whom I usually only see once a week now, said my skin looks so smooth (even though we use the same foundation) that I don't look asian. She says I looked like some euro mix and I'm like.... euro mixes have fab skin? I have my doubts about the way she thinks but hey! I compliment is a compliment no? 

GOD .. fatass mode right when I finish school, I had a chocolate torte cake slice from Yoshinoya, ate some junk food I bought, had Chocolate coffee mochi cake for my bday, two good size smores, one chocolate cream puff from beard papa's or whatever that place is called, one lychee sakatini, one peach sakatini, half a mug of Sapporo beer (ewww.. I prefer dark but whatever)

sakatini is like a martini but made strictly with sake and soju, it's light and fruity. On that note, I leave you with an epi from my fav series of online shows, Chick vs Dick! If you haven't been watching or you don't know about it.. umm now you do! They talk with the same accent my mom's customers talk in! Not hard to understand :)

enjoy!!

Katie

FOTD

:) aloha my dear readers (.... if I have any left at all after that brief hiatus I had)

I took the last of my finals today!! HIZZAHHH!! Started at 4, finished at 6.. so not too bad, didn't need the whole 3 hours they gave us.

I'm officially done with school!! I only have one week off though.. then it's back to school on March 30. BOOOOO! I'm going to try to play with makeup as much as I can during my time off.

Ok so for todayyyy, I actually used the same colors for my eyes as yesterday, but tried making it a little darker to define it a little more. I really like this combo, it brings out my eye color really well! The only thing I changed was some face stuff because I wanted to use what I bought!! :D yeeee!!

uhh.. disclaimer.. ignore the hair as ALWAYS. I JUST finished blow drying it and it was flying all over the place like the un-tamed beast that it is.

"because we were kissing with our eyes closed so tight..."


:) frontal shot


bubby was trying to fix his hair teehee!


messin around actually produced a makeup-viewing picture!!


some cam whoring


:) ulzzang? Pretty damn close.



Eyes:
- Mac Blanc Type (lid, highlight)
- Mac Twinks (crease)
- Mac Embark (deep crease)
- Mark liquid liner in Cleo (top liner)
- K Palette pen liner (lower lash liner)
- Mac Lemon Chiffon shadestick (inner corner top lid, lower inner corner too)

Face:
- Dior Forever fluid foundie in 21
- Maybelline Dream Matte powder
- Mac MSF in Refined (as blush)
- Mac Emote blush (to contour)

Lips:
- Cargo Plant Love ls in Lindsay
- Mac Tricolored lipglass in Consume Me


ZZZZZZZZZZOOOOMMMMGGGGG!! I can't even begin to describe how much I love the LEMON CHIFFON SHADESTICK!! I mean.. I have like.. thousands of shadesticks from Mac already and lots of jumbo eye pencils from NYX.. and I love them all and shit, but THIS color is soooo pretty. Like I said before it's like a white creamy vanilla color tinged with a little gold. I used it in this FOTD as a base so my bottom liner will stay put even more AND so that I can use some white in my lower inner corner to make my eyes appear a little bigger. I usually do this with shimmery eyeshadows (like Sweet Lust in the last FOTD I did previously) and I try staying away from white eyeliners because I couldn't find one that blended nicely and didn't look so ridiculously unnatural you know? But this color is PERFECT FOR ME!! not only that, it helped my Blanc Type to show up even more above without looking TOO white yadig?

After my finals I went back to my apartment and took a nap.. woke up with my makeup still in tact WHEW!! Then went down to Westminster to return some stuff with the BF right before the mall closed.. a sweater dress I didn't post a pic of yesterday and the Viva La Glam Lipgloss.. I was thinking the color looked really familiar and realized I already HAD THAT COLOR. LOL.. wow.. I suck. HAHAHA! I was sooo tempted to get another Lemon Chiffon shadestick but decided not to. I swatched Butternutty to double check if I was right about not getting it and I confirmed it, a dupe would be NYX Jumbo eye pencil in Yogurt, although Butternutty is technically more frosty looking I suppose. MMM.. should I get another Lemon Chiffon??

Ahh.. so my search continues for Royal Hue.. I've been wanting that gorgeous purple shadestick since last year but it's hard to find anywhere else except Ebay.. and I don't want it from ebay. Oh well. Hope you guys like my look!!

Much love!

Katie

blog award!

awww, thanks to Sarah aka Motosays, I have an award!! ;) You sly minx you.

List 7 things that you love, and then pass the award on to 7 bloggers that you love! Be sure to tag them and let them know that they have won. You can copy the picture of the award and paste it on your sidebar letting the whole world know... you are Kreativ!


7 Things I Love...

1) spicy foods. The spicier it is THE BETTER.

2) cold days. I agree with sarah on this, I like warm days but I just hate it when it's overly hot and you have to deal with sweating and crap.

3) sleeping, probably because I generally don't get enough of it. Bubby thinks I sleep insane hours.. sometimes over 10 hours but those are like.. ONCE a week if I'm super tired.

4) colorful shiny things!! I can't resist shiny objects.. which was my downfall around 7th grade.. when I picked up a shiny ball that I thought was a silver foil marble thingy.. and I squeezed it because it was soft feeling.. and KABOOMMMMMMMM!! Burned my arm because some jackass had left a firecracker out for an idiot like me to find. My arm was in a cast for a whilllllle after that.

5) getting text messages. I might or might not respond but just getting them makes me feel all warm inside. Random ones are the best. Umm.. gross ones.. like pictures of poo in a toilet from my cousin.. are not ok. Ya true story. Gross.

6) makeup!! I LOOOOOOOVE collecting and playing with makeup!! well yea.. duh.

7) How cute my bf is being because I asked him what it is that I love so I could fill this up.. and he's saying dumb things :) awwww.

and the nominees are...

whoever hasn't done this. LOL!!

Show the seven random victims’ names and links and leave a harassing comment informing them that they were prized with Honest Weblog. Well, there’s no prize, but they can keep the nifty icon. List at least ten (10) honest things about yourself. Then pass it on!”


10 Honest things about me:
1) my current password for a few things is exactly 16 letters long

2) I have OCD tendencies.. I do stuff without knowing sometimes like.. washing my hands before I go to the bathroom and after, washing my hands before I shower.. I don't allow hot foods in the car because I can't stand the food smell attaching to my clothes or in my car, I rearrange everything in cabinets because I have control issues I guess. HAHA.

3) I'm wearing white underwear right now with rainbow dots on it. :D

4) It's hard for me to throw things away. Things just build and build up in my car and room until it's like.. a war zone!

5) =D I have 2 disorders that I do not speak of but am currently dealing with. Both diagnosed by doctors, one is a sleeping disorder.. a sort of branched out version of Narcolepsy that according to the doc, is still relatively new and they have no idea how to deal with it, and the second.. it actually a mental disorder that only pops up when I stress or when I get even a little bit anxious or you know.. I'll let your imaginations run wild.

6) I love buying things for the people I like!! It gives me a sense of satisfaction!! See.. if they end up liking it, it just tells me that I know more about them and that I do know their tastes! :) It makes me happy!

7) My arms start to ache when I blow dry my hair.. too much .. hair..

8) I procrastinate like no other. I like to start my papers the day before they are actually due. I'm gonna send myself to an early grave from all the stress and time crunching I do. LOL!!!!

9) When I find something I like, I keep doing it or eating it or whatever everyday until I get sick of it and move onto something new. LOL!!

10) I hold grudges for like..... ever.

11) I love hitting my boyfriend's penis. Like.. really.. slapping it with my palm wide open. I know I know, that's so messed up right??? Sometimes when I'm near him and I make a motion to hug him, he backs away really quick and covers his crotch!! I think I may have given him some permanent mental trauma.

12) I used to be fat/overweight and for a short while, my family was convinced I was a lesbian?? WTH????

:D Yaaa! Finally done. i hate these types of questions.. you have to make up crap yourself. I like Q and A surveys!

haul....... again.

OIIIIII!!!!!1!1!1!!!!!111!!!!one!!1111!!11!

lol, if you're a nerd like me, that above will crack you up.

Ok so hoopla of hoopla's, I went out shopping today!! Umm yes I should be studying for my last final tomorrow.. but hey.. gotta keep myself from insanity you know? I swear.. I think I worked myself up too much over my final YESTERDAY.. and was so sleep deprived.. (studied 8+ hours, went to sleep at 3 AM, woke up lots of times, finally up at 7 AM, stupid construction next door, took test, stressing over next one, didn't sleep well again last night, got paranoid and thought someone else was in the room laughing..)

So. Retail therapy.

My Mary Kay oil free hydrating gel came in the mail!! I'll review it after a few days!!


The sample eyeshadow it came with in Bamboo


Nice nude color, hell of a lot smoother than Mac, which was WOAH to me


Wet Seal $4 bucks each!


Also from Wet Seal, $4 each!!


Wet seal had this area where the selection from there was buy 5 for $20, woohoo!

Ok, SUGARSWEET COLLECTION!

MSF in Refined, Tricolor lipglass in Consume Me, Viva La Glam VI, Shadestick in Lemon Chiffon


Swatches in the same order as above


Ok my thoughts on the collection. I know.. I have a lot of MSFs already but this one was SOOOOO PRETTY and not OVERLY shimmery!! To top it off, it makes such a pretty blush as well as a highlighter.. AND it was SOOOOOO smooth to the touch!! I can't resist MSFs. Umm.. ALL the tricolored lg were SO sheer to the point where I could put Simply Delicious on my top lip and Consume me on the bottom lip and they look EXACTLY the same. I only bought Consume me because it had that excellent glossy shiny effect that I love in my lipglosses. I know, I said in my previous post I was going in for the shadestick in Butternutty... BUT... when I swatched it, it reminded me too much of Beige-ing shadestick and Lemon Chiffon was just SOOOO much prettier.. a nice vanilla but slightly hued gold color to me. I love shadesticks!! I have a nice collection going for me.

Oh god.. the new Viva La Glam shades are a little too dark in my opinion. I prefer this older version. I already have a tube but I bought this as a backup because it's that nice baby rose shade that I love.

Ok so after we finished cruisin around Westminster mall, babe wanted to hang out with his friends Matt and Jason so we went over to their house. HAHAHA!! They got me presents because it was my birthday yesterday!! :) How sweet!!

Their mom gave me this. It's a mini pinata that says "Princess" on it. She bought this monster sized pinata that was literally.. the same height as ME.. for her mom who's coming over from Korea because it's her 70th bday, and she heard from Matt and Jason that it's my bday so she got it for me!! :) awwww!! ..... so .. anyone know how to put candy in it?


Matt got me the gift set for Davidoff's Cool Water perfume! mmm.. I've never owned this perfume before, it has a very nice calming scent to it!


HEHEHEHE!! Jason bought me this Domo-kun backpack and put a manga I'm missing in there! Yes.. I still read manga, go eat shit if you don't like it!


Ok so my look of the day!! I need to learn how to take better pics.. it seemed a little darker in real life.. and yeaaa you can tell I forgot to put on chapstick and my lipstick and gloss!!!! I look sickly.. let's just imagine that I have this super amazing color on my lips. :D ya?

Closed shot


Open shot! :( I got foundation on my left hair strands!! nooo!! hmm.. looks slightly washed out.. -.- need.. better.. lighting..


EYES:
Mac Twinks es
Mac Embark es
Mac Blanc Type es
Mac Retrospeck es
Mark liquid liner in Cleo on top lash line
K-palette 24 hour tattoo pen liner on lower lashline
Mac Spiked brow crayon

FACE:
Dior Forever shade 21
Maybelline Dream Matte powder
Mac Emote to contour
Mac Nuance blush

LIPS:
NADA.. as you can see.

Me and Christian went to Jason's work place to help them out a little bit and when I was going to the storage room, this lady came out of the locker room and said my eye makeup was gorgeous and asked how I did it. I asked if she knew what MAC was.. she said no. I said ohh.. and proceeded to close one eye and showed her where each color goes and what the colors look like.. she seemed fascinated but kinda lost.. like all she wanted to do was stare at my eye.. which was kinda uncomfortable after a while so I'm all.. BYE! =P


*SIGH*

I totally want to get this for my Blackberry Bold.. except instead of the pink, I want it to be a baby blue and daytona blue gradient around the crown. If I haven't already said it in this blog yet, I do have the intentions of getting a tattoo sometime soon. What of you might ask? You're looking at it. That crown, it's similar to the juicy couture crown they sometimes use. I want it right in the middle of my back between my shoulder blades but it'd be hard to hide from the parents.. even though technically it shouldn't be a big deal because my LITTLE sister already has one and they already found out a long time ago.


Isn't it GORGEOUS?????? *sigh* it's love.. I'm in love.. but not with the price. Just because it's swarovski crystals.. it's fucking $145!! RIP OFF!!!! A cute rip off though.

Ok that's all I got for today!!

Hugs, kisses, farts!

Katie

update! ya no.. seriously this time.

I finally took my dreaded final this morning.. and while I don't believe I went as low as to FAIL it, I have a feeling it's not the score I was aiming for.. even though I put in over 8 hours of studying for THIS one yesterday. Ahh well.. let's just ride the gravy train and forget it.

Hmm.. I was sooo excited for Sugarsweet but now that I've seen the swatches.. and played with the shit in my rather.. obscenely large makeup collection.. I believe I might just pick up only 2 things, Butternutty and .. iffy on the other.. but I guess I have to see them in real life to really judge right? The lipglasses are cute but Pursebuzz swatched them and they look SOOOOO ridiculously sheer but shimmery.. hmmm!!

Anyone ever eat at Class 302 near 99 Ranch Market in Rowland Heights? It has my seal of approval for authenticity. The meals there are served and taste EXACTLY the way the meals served in the bentos on Taiwan trains. The shaved ice there is very thin so you almost think you're eating an ice cream but then you realize it's ice! Tai hao le!! .. mmmm.. love tangyuan.. got the bf hooked on tangyuan when he first met me. EHEHEHEHE! Not like that shaved hawaiian ice crap. Another place that's famous for it's Taiwanese sausage and le xian cao is Sim Ba La, locations both in the city of Azusa and Rowland Heights. My mom's old high school friend actually owns both those stores so ya, call it shameless advertising but if you're in So Cal and you're Taiwanese.. I doubt I even need to tell you about Sim Ba La.

Soo.. the boyfriend and I went grocery shopping on monday at Mitsuwa as always.. by grocery I mean snacks because when I stress, I crave salt.

Some of my favorites.. the top right was a trial one, never had it before.. corn pottage flavored cheese sticks? Interesting.. the calbee shrimp flavored hot garlic are the best!! AND.. it was buy 2 for $1.99!!!


Ok so my haul.. it's not a big one but I'm pretty satisfied with what I got

Left to Right: MAC boybait lg, smashbox lg, Mac shy girl ls, Mark skinny dip ls, Mark pink crush lg, Mark sexy lg, Mark liquid liner in Cleo, Dior 260 (refill), Liole BB cream, Barbie loves Stila palette, Stud brow pencil (refill), Lancome Drama eyeshadow


The lips from left to right: Mac boybait lg, smashbox lg, mac shy girl ls, mark skinny dip ls, mark pink crush lg, mark sexy lg, dior ls, cleo liquid liner


The stila palette plus lancome drama shadow on the right


The samples.. woah. LOL!! Michael Kors new perfume sample, Dior Miss Cherie perfume sample, Bare Essentials Prime Time sample, Lorac Tantilizer sample, Murad Oil Free matte moisturizer, Ole Henriksen sleeping gel, Pink Sugar moisturizing mousse.


Left to Right: Mac Spiked brow pencil, Mac Stud brow pencil, Shu Uemura Hard formula brow pencil in Acorn. These are what I switch off using from time to time. I find Shu's to be the most natural looking but that's because it's a little difficult to apply as it requires oil from the hair on your brows to be present in order to activate it.. weird yes, good for avoid mistakes though (had a hard time getting it on my hand)


yeeeee!! Guess what the boyfriend was doing? Looking up how to create your own severed hand on a youtube video.. creepy..


We were bored and I didn't feel like studying on monday so we watched Infernal Affairs. The american movie The Departed was based off this series.


Soo.. then I decided to play with my long-neglected makeup that night. With school and what not.. I haven't been able to do ANYTHING to my face lately. Wanted to see if I was rusty! Well.. I was. I'm not that great to start out with but it came out aaaaaiiiite. Cheers!

Closed, sorry.. it's kinda sloppy.. I didn't clean up the shape very well :(


ignore the red eyes.. it was pretty late.


non angled face shot


goofin off.. umm.. the bf caught me taking this pic btw.. it was so sad.




I can only guess what I used for my eyes.. I think.. Stud brow pencil for (obviously) brows, Lancome es in Drama, Mac Nocturnelle es, Mac Beauty Marked es, Mac Sketch es, Mac Sweet Lust es, Mac Solar White es, Mac Carbon.. oh mark eyeliner in cleo, obviously false lashes just because they're gathering dust, and uhhhhmmmm.. ooo, MUFE aqua eyeliner in black on waterline

Umm for my face it's just Dior Forever in 21, Maybelline Dream Matte powder, Mac Emote blush to contour, Nars Madly blush

For my lips it's Mac shy girl ls and Mac boybait lg

MMMMM.. I don't think I missed anything.. if I did, sorry!

Lookieeee!! 2 bucks for the ones on the left and 4 bucks for the ones on the right!! Both are packs of 24 nails!!


The right pack, I love how there's silver right below the white! I tried to do that to my real nails once.. didn't work out that great.



That's all, someone's buzzin my apartment!

Katie
