Dior Iconic mascara


When I saw the model for this mascara, I thought OHHHHH she's so gorgeous! I can't find a better pic so that's best I've got of her, but when you look really closely, it's SUCH A PRETTY dark purple she's wearing! Then I go searching around to find out what's she's using and I find out that it's actually a certain taupe-ish brown that appears to have a purple hue in photographs. :( I wanted it to be purple. HMPH. 

I'm on the search for a good chapstick. CHAPSTICK brand.. uhh.. I think I'm allergic to an ingredient in there or something because my lips almost ALWAYS swell a a little. Burts Beeswax was ok at first but I got tired of it (lips were still chapped), so I finally landed on Carmex, which I'm still using. It's better than Burts, but still, it has a nasty wax taste. 

*yawn* school starts in only 3 days. NOOOOOOO!! Just when I was enjoying my time off. Oh wells. 

OH YEA, I forgot to mention I broke my phone. Like.. not short circuited it or anything.. but it's basically demolished. Note to self.. cell phones are not indestructible. I have a tendency to throw my phone on my bed or on the floor or on the floor of my car when I get frustrated over a call or something.. but 3 days ago, I got mad after a phone call with my boyfriend and just tossed it onto my CARPETED floor to take a shower, and it just completely fell apart. *sigh* So I went to buy a new one.. it's pretty cool, but such a stupid investment because my phone plan ends in December, so I'll be getting a new phone, courtesy of my mom and dad, anyways.. so this will end up being a backup phone once December comes around. I didn't choose an expensive one because all I do is call and text anyways. 

Oh shit I forgot to mention that I was playing around with it and I had put in my micro sd card to transfer ringtones onto it. The card also had some microsoft word documents that I had saved there from school. Oh, I have a flash drive that reads micro sd cards and I had forgotten to bring my actual normal flashdrive to school, so it was a quick improvise.  ANYWAYS! I noticed it actually acknowledged the fact I had word documents in there, so I clicked on it just for fun, and WABAMM!! My cheapo phone can actually READ the document! OMG NO SHIT! My old phone that isn't THAT old can't do that!! WTH! That's fucking cool. The only phones that I thought could do that were blackberries and the expensive PDA phones! :) niiiiiice. 

Ok, that's all I got to blog about now. Buhbyes

Why my boyfriend is stupid and why I don't like being a sister.

UGHHHHH!! So a few days back, my Ed Hardy shirt had just magically disappeared from my closet but I found it like 2 days ago downstairs hanging on a doorknob in a drycleaners plastic wrap. I thought.. well since I have bad memory.. maybe I had asked my mother to dry clean it for me but forgot about it? 

That would be strange because I've only worn it once and I don't remember taking it out of my closet. Well surprise suprise, I find pictures of my little sister wearing it at a party from her facebook. It is CLEARLY my shirt and it is CLEARLY too small for her. Dude. Yeah. I'm a size extra small to small.. my sister is a large. 

Once I saw the picture, I ran over to my closet. They had snuck it back into my closet thinking I wouldn't notice but you guys are so retarded. I put it on and yes, you guessed it, it's no longer a form fitting shirt, but rather a shirt that wrinkles around the stomach so it's all baggy there. Great. Just great. 

I HAD ONLY WORN THIS SHIRT ONCE. IT FUCKING COST ME OVER $200!! That was money I had earned from my Boeing job!!!!!! WTF! It's too late to cause hell in the house right now because everyone's sleeping. But you can bet your ass that I'm going to cause a scene tomorrow morning and you can bet your fucking ass that someone's getting me a new shirt. 

this is the last straw. She had ruined a Bebe's top that cost me 100 bucks last year, and I had forced my parents to promise me that this would be the last time because I am fucking pissed. 

ARGHHHHHHHH SHE HAS HER OWN FUCKING CLOTHES! WHAT THE HELL!!!! 

Oh and why do I think my boyfriend is stupid? I fucking call him to rant about it all and he gets pissed too because he was there when I bought it. He asks how I found out and I told him i saw it on facebook. So then he says "oh why are you on facebook so late?" He goes off on a rant about how I didn't tell him I'm on facebook and that I must be hiding something on it and shit like how I must have been lying for years now about whatever it is on my facebook. GODDAMN YOU FUCKING PUNK. 

I'm pissed off and he goes off and pulls this stupid shit on me about A STUPID WEBSITE? Maybe you'd be able to see it if you had a college email address, you know, the ones they give you if you ACTUALLY went to college? 

I'm so mad right now.

names part 2

Ok it's not really a part 2 thing but this is a random post due to the fact I am extremely bored. 

I would like to say that in the future, when I have kids and whatnot, I will also have a pet dog that I will name Platy, short for Platypus. Why? Because I used to play Worms Warfare and named one of my worms Platy, but why did I name HIM platy? He reminded me of a pink platypus. So, that is why my future dog will be named Platy. If not a dog, then a fish. The fish will be named Platy. If for any reason at all, people are cruel enough not to let me have a pet, then I am going to give birth to some unlucky child who will be born with the name of PLATY. CAPEESH? 

Or I could name my car Platy and that would solve all our problems.. :) HMM. 

Another thing I'd like to mention is another silly story about my bf. Yesterday we were driving around, when I suddenly wanted to ask him..

"If you were born a girl, do you think we would have ended up as friends?"

Well now, asking ANYTHING of my bf is always complicated as he is.. special. YES CHRISTIAN, YOU ARE SPECIAL. Do you remember our convo? It went a little something like this..

me: "Can I ask you something bubby?"
him: "What is it?"
me: "let's say.. just hypothetically that you were born a girl.."
him: "yes I'd be fucking hot, is that all?"
me: "uh no. I was TRYING TO SAY.. if you were born a girl.."
him: "I'd have all the guys hollaring. Of COURSE!"
me: ".. IF you were born a girl.."
him: "hot as hell I tell you!"
me: ".... ok. If you were born a girl.. do you think.."
him: "that guys would be checkin me out all the time? FUCK YA!"
me: ".. *sigh* .. ok.. "
him: "was that it? Did I answer right?"
me: "not even close."
him: "ok ok, what was it REALLY?"
me: "Ok, if you were naturally born a girl, and we went to the same school, do you think we'd 
wind up as friends?"
him: "no. I'd be way too hot and popular to hang out with you. You'd have to beg me or 
something."
me: "I'm not talking to you anymore."
him: "I'M KIDDING!!!! Well not about the popular part..."

The conversation went on for a while after that but uhh yea you get the gist. All for one simple question. It's always like this! This boy needs a fat sumo wrestler to sit on his face and rip one!!!! :) i love my bubby. Cocky as he is over absolutely nothing..... HAHAHAH!! I'm kidding I'm kidding.

Failed attempt at makeup storage! And Bush is stupid.

I'd like to say.. fuck you America and your stupid morals and HONOUR!!

Read THIS ARTICLE to figure out why I'm miffed.


I mean come on now. SERIOUSLY? If I threw myself over a grenade to protect the people around me, I'd at least HOPE that attempt would be AT LEAST appreciated?!?!?! They say the evidence was heavily scrutinized because that ACT didn't meet the criteria to receive a metal of honor. I'm sorry.. I guess being blown to bits just doesn't count as good evidence for ya. 

Lame. Very lame. I could go on and on about the stories I find but I'd rather not.

So anyways.. I was trying to clean up and organize my makeup. I was transferring my junkamadunk into the two large traincases I got from Sephora (they're fucking huge) and so.. I call it my failed attempt because I failed to realize how much makeup I had.. and am now stuck in the same place that I was before I bought the traincases. 

Oh, I had to get the traincases so I could bring my makeup over to my apartment in LA when I move this Wednesday. 

Ok, so keep in mind before you look at the pics that the bottom compartment above the shelves is about 6.5 inches deep. I slit up the makeup into inexpensive and expensive. The bottom compartment of the expensive traincase held my 7 fifteen pot palettes stacked up to fill the maximum height.

Inexpensive makeup. NYX are doublestacked.

Expensive (MAC singles are double stacked)

The 2 traincases, plus what DIDN'T fit scattered around them.

This stuff on my desk didn't fit into them either.


Yes that's where I keep my tampons. LOL! So yea. Don't know what to do with the rest. Should I leave them at home.. or find a way to bring them all with me? Hmm.. oh and while cleaning out everything, I discovered that I lost my BLUE PIGMENT!!!! Supposedly rare.. and it was SUCH A PRETTY COLOR!! I remember being excited when I found it at a store!! UGH! 

Oh and that blue thing is a back massager I got from Boeing from an event. That twisty yellow-gold thing on the top shelf is indeed a twisted bottle of Corona beer. :) Smuggled in from Mexico. 

Oh MY god.. I went to that cupcake place I had previously mentioned. It's a far drive, but closer than Sprinkles. I never knew Long Beach was so far from Yorba Linda. Anyways.. the lady who works there is THE nicest person I've ever met. The store is family owned and she makes the cupcakes early in the morning at a friend's restaurant and as soon as she sells out of her cupcakes, she closes the shop. The shop itself is SOOO cute, very dollhouse-like. She has a cute piggy bank near the register that's labeled "Maggie's Collegefund" and yes, Maggie is her daughter. I'll post pictures of the cupcakes later.. or perhaps when I go back again as the pictures don't do her cupcakes justice!! I bought 4 mini cupcakes at 0.99 cents each and 6 large cupcakes at $1.99 each. It's all really cheap actually compared to the other cupcake stores and MUCH MUCH tastier. I'll do a thorough review later so if you like cupcakes and actually READ MY SHIT, stay tuned. I am FO SHO gonna go again before I move to LA. 

Uh.. by the way.. that cupcake place at the Irvine Spectrum.. what's it called.. The Cupcake Shop or Boutique or something.. is pretty pricey and tastes funny. Red Velvet was bland and the chocolate tasted like.. it had some kinda weird cardboard box alcohol type of thing in it. Very strange. At $2.99 a pop.. HELLZ NO. Frosting was very EHH to me. 

Ok what is a life-ranter, makeup-hoarding, school warped, weirdo like me doing with cupcake shop reviews? I bake. I have a HUGE fascination with baking. I'm not your betty crocker instant mix bitch, although I don't mind munching on a piece of instantly made cake (very sweet, yum), but I'm always on the hunt for a place that has the ultimate dessert that I have pictured perfectly in my mind. I have yet to find a place with my type of cookie and brownie.. but so far I've come very close to finding my perfect cupcake, cake, and pies. I almost ALWAYS ask for the story behind the store because if it's good, there's a reason. Sometimes the reason makes your dessert taste just so much more delicious because of how it touches you. 

Oh and don't you find it strange how the minute you experience something good.. you want to share it with the world? I'm selfish and I never like to reveal where I get things or how I get things. Once I had these cupcakes with my boyfriend.. the first thing we thought of was to SHARE! Amazing isn't it? The minute he said "can we get some for my friends tonight?" I had said "would the guys want some of this??" HAHAHAHA!! Hence the 6 large cupcakes. I drew on the box a little, DAMN! I shoulda taken a picture. It had a little joke of a message on it that the guys will understand and then I drew 5 of the guys, VERY WELL MIGHT I ADD!! HEHEHEHE!! My boyfriend couldn't stop laughing when I was drawing.. he said I drew the same way he drew when he was 5 years old.. :( what a little fucker. 

Ok! I'll stop boring you! Toodloo!!

My MAC phase..

Perhaps it's disappearing? Maybe. I've seen all the preview pics surfacing for collections up to November and honestly, I'm not really feeling that enthusiastic about a majority of it. Here's my take on them.

Sept 25: Gold Fever (Limited release)

I've have a lot of what's coming out, it's a lot of repromotes. You could at least toss in Sun Pepper pigment!! I've been looking for that since I've seen swatches of it from the last holiday collection. Lame. 

Sept 25: MAC for Ungaro (Limited Release)

I'm only excited for the lipsticks because I'm a fan of nudes and pale pinks. Sorry, that's all that excites me.

Color Arrays: Sept. 25

Now, THIS I'm excited about. The colors look FAB and the packaging is SOOO convenient if you've ever seen their brow sets, you understand what I mean. Sleek, slim, super fucking awesome. Space saver too if you know what I mean. Getting almost all fo sho! 

Metal Urge: Nov. 2008

The consistency of these last year threw me off, as I didn't think they'd be easy to work with. Which they weren't, based on what I saw people saying on their blogs. I was SO tempted to by them though as their colors were so rich and bold. This year it looks like they toned down the colors .. releasing lighter versions.. so it's a no go for me. I do wonder if they've improved the formula. Not diggin the colors.

Passion of Red/Red She Said: October 2008


Is this the holiday collection? Seems to be out a little earlier than last year.. so probably end of November. Honestly, once again, not lemming anything. Lipgloss sets are aiiiiite, eyeliner sets seem so SAFE, pigment sets seem alight too. Lip palettes never excite me, and still don't. The eyeshadow palettes look almost similar to last years, except I WILL be getting the Smokey Eyes palette. That's probably it. 

*SIGH*.. My collection will have to wait till next year to grow. I've heard promising stories about 2009, what with Hello Kitty collaborations and many many more! Speaking of which, I'm going to open up a diff bank account soon. I'll show you guys why soon enough.

names

Yea I know I promised pictures but I'm just feeling ridiculously lazy right now. 

OMG so two days ago, me and the boyfriend were at Popeye's, being the fried chicken lovers we are, when I suddenly bring up the topic of NAMES. He already knows what name preferences I have and therefore, makes fun of every single name I come up with, EVEN THOUGH THEY'RE PERFECTLY O-K. I mean.. what's wrong with a boy being named Kail? Or a girl being named Kay (so I can say Kaykay for fun)? He thinks Kail sounds sissy and Kay would be just stupid. THEN he said I should have 3 kids in the future, name it Klux, So then I can have the KKK. HMPH!!!!! 

So then, I asked HIM to suggest some names. He apparently loves the name Oden. Which is coincidentally the name of a japanese dish.. but he doesn't know that. Moron. I'd never call my kid Oden. I forgot what he said he'd name the girl.. but it was pretty stupid. It was like.. Tifaka or something from one of his DS games. Anyways.. pictures next time I swear.

I'm so sore!

Sega-CHOO CHOO!! What's up my suddenly-increased-over-half-mysteriously readers?

I can't believe you guys actually read this! I type so much that I even annoy MYSELF! :) I'm amazed at the attention span of yall!! (just fyi.. I don't say YALL in real life, it's just easier to type)

Soo.. even though yesterday (16th!) only marked the actually number of the date of our anniversary, not so much the yearly one or semi-yearly one.. my darling actually came up with a plan! On his own! :) Doesn't that make you want to give him a cookie? Or.. a kick. Either one. LOL! He decided to take me to Disneyland!! I have to admit, I'm a sucker for theme parks (except six flags and magic mountains), carnivals, and fairs! As much as I like them.. I gotta admit, Disneyland is NOT the "happiest place on earth" as their advertisement would say. Waiting in line for 35+ minutes in sweltering heat isn't fun. Nor is wanting to try the famous turkey leg they sell only to find the monster in front of you took the last two! Paying 4 dollars for the churro of your dreams isn't that great either. But there's just SOMETHING about Disneyland that makes you want to always go back and play!! :) We did make quite a few memories there during this trip, I love you bubby!! Soaring Over California wasn't as lame as people told me it was!! It was actually AMAZING! Pictures to come soon.

Monday, bubby came to pick me up in the afternoon and we hung out for a while before going to Sonics for the civic fit meet. There was a guy there who had come all the way from Tennessee!! He was on a road trip across the nation and the meet was actually just an event that coincidentally fit into his plans! Cool guy, boosts about his White Castle restaurants. Am I still bitter? Oh yes. Anyways! The food at Sonics was good, haven't tried their shakes yet, but the food was pretty good. Butttt.. wth was up with my one inch thick bread slice sandwich? I measured it with my short little fingers and each breadslice was about an inch thick.. interestingggg veryyyy interesting! 

Umm oh by the way, you'd THINK that after dealing with my boyfriend for 2 years now that I'd learn he plays THE MOST disgusting pranks ever.. but no, I must be blind to it all now because today he told me his balls were sweaty. I was like... ok? So he reaches down and wipes them with his hand when I'm not looking and starts rubbing that SAME hand on my arm.. so I'm like "did you just wipe a booger on me?" He says no.. his ball sweat. EWWWWWWWWWW!!!!! 

That's almost as gross as the one time I was sitting on the floor next to his bed and he's just laying on his bed playing his DS.. and all of a sudden he gets up and jumps over my head, lands on both feet with his ass in my face and FARTS! UGHHHHHHHH!! 

Oh yes, you guys might be laughing but DO YOU KNOW WHAT MUSTARD-GONE-BAD MEANS? OR SMELLS LIKE?? 

So anyways, next thurs I start school. I still need to get a desk swively chair, yep yep. I've found my whiteboard already. :( Goodbye Yorba Linda, hello Los Angeles.. home of the smog. :) I found a Mac Pro store near my apartment on Robertson. SWEET! I should go use my 40 dollar giftcard to metropack.. maybe buy another pair of jeans. 

*sniffle* I haven't swam since spring.. and now my body's all out of shape. I got some thunder thighs going on and my underarm is all stickin out! AHHHHHH!! I blame it on the boyfriend. He never wants to go work out with me .. not that he CAN anyway.. what with smoking over 5 cigarettes a day.. EVERYDAY.. since.. who knows when? 

Oh.. I've gotten my felicia blue psp now. 8GB.. fully hacked. :) Be scared.. very scared.

This is what it looks like..

You can't tell from the picture.. but the faceplate actually has lots of flecks of glitter so it's almost like a glittering diamond baby blue!!!! I really might bling it out with diamantes. 

Alrighty thenn.. that's it for this short blog, pics to come soon, I promise. You get to see my bubby's new house! :) I'll just leave it at that. HEH!
