*WARNING* LOTS OF PICTURES, sorry if it'll make your comp lag!

Ok, so let's play picture catch up! I'll start from my sis's 19th bday from a few weeks ago, up to my cousin Mimi's bday, plus a few random inserts!

*all photos clickable, click to view larger, duh*

Ok.. what I've been up to the past few days.. gift buying and wrapping!! WOOHOO!! PRESENTS! .. too bad none of them are for me :( I left one gift in the car and my bf already opened his so it's not in here. I got him a comp because his is like.. ANCIENT.

My sis's bday cake from the back! It was gooooooood.

Bow from her present. Happy holidays!! ;) Only for my bf to unwrap.

My lovely sister!! And.. her bf who looks like he's staring at her tits.

Sisters! I did my eye makeup WAY too dark and retarded that day.

Some cam whore insertions.

I look like one of those bitchy mannequins. The ones who are like.. THESE CLOTHES LOOK BETTER ON ME THAN YOU SO HA! 

What can I say? I was bored in traffic!

My look for today, VERY natural, VERY fast. 

pssst, ANGIE! I'm using the k-palette on my lower lashline see? It's been on there since this morning and it's been so rainy today and plus I have watery eyes. I went grocery shopping with my mom and here I am! It's still in tact!

This is so simple I don't think I need to write what I used, it's so easily duped by anything.

I've been using liquid liner lately. I think I'm getting better at it but still shaky and stuff. 

OK about my cousin's bday party! She and her hubby live like.. 3 minutes away from my bf's house in Corona! I love their house.. it's MASSIVE! Actually I just love the master bedroom and the pool/airhockey table upstairs. It was so much fun! I already expected it to be filled with lots of yummy food and lots of liquor because come on.. I know my cousins well enough. My bf on the other hand, underestimated it all. He loved the food so much.. he ate 3 dixie plates full of food within 10 minutes.. uhh.. that's obviously NOT GOOD for ANYBODY. He felt too bloated and his stomach was all retarded for eating too much too fast. He got better after a little bit and started drinking eventually. I hate 8 jello shots, some wine, some midori sour, white liquor (not for the weak), some sake. Bf had.. well not as many jello shots as me, but he did attempt to try the white liquor. What is white liquor you ask? Taiwanese liquor made from rice. Very potent.. will cause your nose to wrinkle up in amazement if smell it straight, it goes right to your sinuses. My bro's gf is a bartender so I knew the liquor will NEVER be bad. Sake is usually good and refreshing but sometimes a little hard to down in shots, but she brought out this sake that goes right down through your throat soft as beer. I don't like beer, save for two kinds. 

I like calling my family alcoholics because it's true. My family loves liquor. Especially my cousins. Oh Jackie jackie jackie.. if you make fun of him for not SEEING him drink enough.. he WILL do silly things.. say.. grab a pitcher half full of midori sour and down the whole thing like there's no tomorrow. *SIGH* .. and this is why he has a belly.

Ok.. now about the KITTY!! Matt and Jason (friends, for those new to my blog) have moved to a new house. They've been thinking of getting a new cat for some time now because it's been almost 2 years since they've gotten rid of their old cat (it was getting too sick).. so I was cruising on Craigslist like the weirdo that I am and I found this kitten for sale! We (bf, matt, jason, their mom) went to go check it out and when that kitten bounced into the room I FELL IN LOOOOOVE!! I love .. anything that walks.. lol. I can't be in close contact with MANY animals for long periods of time.. or even play with them for more than an hour before my allergies kick in and I feel like shit. I couldn't help it though! I was hugging it and playing with it for a while.. then.. *ACHOOO* !! My nose started running.. I got a headache, my eyes started tearing and getting itchy.. my hands started itching too. It was bad. I took some Claritin-D and used some nasal spray.. which helped a little.. but I had to leave soon anyway. 

Speaking of allergies this afternoon I was eating lunch with my sis and cousin. After that I went to the kitchen and saw a can of pistachios. I love pistachios. So I ate about 15 pieces. I'm allergic to nuts.. did I forget to mention that? My lips started swelling and my neck got itchy. 

Do you guys see a trend here? How I kind of ignore the fact I'm supposed to stay away from certain things? 

Ok, so my mom forced me to go to the doctors.. and he gave me the evil eye when I told him about the cat.. the nuts.. and random stuff I'm not supposed to be doing. He didn't even have to call the nurse in to tell her about giving me a shot because she just popped in and said "readdddddddy?" I could tell she was laughing inside. The only times I show up are when I have bad allergy reactions or if I'm REALLY REALLY sick. Obviously when I walked in, with no signs of fever or the flu.. it's a dead give away that I've been bad. =D

I was going to add a video clip of me playing with the kitten but youtube is SUCKIN IT right now, so I'll add it in later! 

HOPE YOU ALL HAD A FUN WEEKEND! 

I'm having some trouble in the love department right now.. but it's ok. 

BTW.. remember how I said this past week I've been called korean many times? Well this morning when I came downstairs, my mom looked at me and said "hmm.. you look korean!" LOL!! :) Such a wonderful week of what I assume to be compliments. Koreans have gorgeous skin plus such pretty facial features! I'll say "anyong haseyo" to you all anyday! .. and that would be it because I don't know any other korean phrases.. except like.. oppa.. LOL!! 

Time to find a hot outfit for new years!  

*sigh*......

I weighed myself recently and it's come to my attention that in the course of LESS THAN A MONTH.. I've gained 10 pounds. I know... WTF RIGHT? When I tell anyone this.. they keep saying I DON'T SEE IT. Well.. clearly if you see me almost weekly.. you won't notice the difference. But if you haven't seen me since the weight gain, it'd be pretty obvious. :( .... Bf says he doesn't see it, that I'm nowhere near fat, that he thinks its all in my head, but when I go to buy junk food, he's all SEEE??? STOP IT! ... HMPH. My whole family gains weight really easily though, it can't be helped. :( I don't wanna work out and give up the foods I love again! NOOOO NOT AGAIN!!! 

And I leave you all with a clip of my bf.. imitating how I do the blue steel look.. over and over and over again. PFFFT!! He's doing it all wrong!!

cuhhh

It's so cold right now, my boobs feel like frozen pebbles.

quick summary of what's to come and what the shazzleheimers I did today.

Went to my cousin Mimi's bday party. Danny, David, and Jackie planned it so it's the typical alcohol infested craziness. Pics from this and stories to come soon!

Finished up the last of my xmas shopping!! Time to wrap now.

Did some more bra and eyeliner shopping.

wtf.. my favorite pair of 2 and a half year old Cathy Jean boots broke.. I found the heel snapped in the closet, must've been from frequent wear or somebody borrowed it without telling me. YARRRRRRR! This sucks. Time to find a new pair.. not that I don't already have lots of boots.. but now it's time to find ones to replace them! Or.. should I get the same pair again? DUDE they upped the price this year or something.. because even though they have the EXACT SAME model on their website.. I SWEAR I paid $75 for them.. now they're more than DOUBLE? WTF? Forget it, they're cute but now THAT cute. Steve Madden has a similar pair for $135 but still.. the heel isn't how I like it. Time for my search to begin again!

This has to be some kind of sign. My bf HATED it when I wore these boots in the past because they made me around.. 5'7.5 or 5'8.. now he used his mind to secretly destroy them. HMPH!

I finally ordered new clear contacts, although wearing the grey for the past few days has started to grow on me.

More people called me korean during my daily walk around life.

I'm freezing. Time for bed now. Alcohol makes me sleepy.

zZzzzZzZzZz

liquid liner experiment.. plus pic whoring speal

:) WHAD UPPPPPPP?

First.. I'll share with you my little experiment and then I'll share with you pics of me, my tired face and my new hair color! YIP YIP WOO! 

First off.. I have in NO WAY SHAPE OR FORM found an HG liquid liner, in fact, I think all liquid liners I've encountered are utter and complete CRAP! I've just used the Prestige Automatic sharpening waterproof pencil in black, and I use a Q-tip to make the line sharper and give it that nice shape, which can be a bitch to do. I have gel liners too but I hate cleaning the brushes that I have to use for them. ANYWHOS.. I was killing time because I took my bf to do his assessment tests at Mt. "ball"Sac.. it was to be from 2 PM to 6 PM.. holy shnizzles! What's a girl to do? Well.. it so happens that about 4 days ago.. I lost/misplaced my credit card.. and since no charges have been made to it at ALL.. I decided to use the time to retrace my steps and ask around. I did find it later though.. but that's a different and embarrassing story.  ANYWAYS.. I went to target to pick up a surprise reward/gift for my bf.. SWEET AND HOT BEEF JERKY! He loves it and I know he wouldn't expect to see me holding it out to him when he comes out of the testing room! :) Buuuut.. that's not all I picked up.. I picked up some munchies for me to snack on while waiting for him and wandered to the cosmetic section. 

I figured.. why not give liquid liner another try? So I picked up two without thinking much about it, Maybelline Ultra Liner Waterproof and Wet N Wild H2O Proof Liquid Liner, both in black. 

This isn't a review but more like.. a comparison of staying power yadig? 

Ok, from left to right it's..

K-Palette Real Lasting Liner

Lancome ArtLiner in Black

Maybelline Ultra Liner Waterproof

Wet N Wild H2O Proof

I made two rows, top is to test their water staying power, the bottom to test their smudge resistance power.. now to show you how dark they are, how thick/thin the brushes will let you line..

No Flash

Ok.. now smudge time. I basically used my finger and rubbed, not too hard but hard enough.

Now I turned on the faucet using both cold water first, then hot water (pretend it's tears), then dabbed it with a towel lightly and rubbed VERY lightly, pretending your eyes are blinking a lot.

No flash

Then I wiped them off with diff makeup removers to see just how powerful they are.

With Green Mandom on the bottom row with VICIOUS scrubbing..

With Mac Makeup Removing Wipes with vicious scrubbing..

Then I took off the rest with.. I forgot what it was, junk my mom had.

I think the results speak for themselves. I'll do a review on the H2O and the Ultra Liner later, let's juse say one sucks because it's a pain and the other sucks because I hate the brush!

Ok, me time.

Only pic of me with teeth that doesn't look pained!! wth!!

What I think of my father.. who won't let his almost 21 year old daughter go out past 11 PM.

MAH GRILLS!!!! ooo.. my brows look good.

See? Pained look!!

*taken out* I look gross

Excuse the tired eyes

My hair from my part area

The bang part, I LOVE chunky layers, can you tell?

My attempt to be sexy turned into a drunken bum with no neck!

.. I was bored. I have no shame. No shame I say.

Babe makes fun of pics like these.. he's always.. "WHERE ARE YOU LOOKING? WHAT'S OVER THERE?" fucker. LOL!

Ok, so why the grey contacts? Well.. I only have one pair of clear contacts left that I'm saving for New Years in case anything should happen to them and I would've ordered  new ones but I LOST MY CREDIT CARD REMEMBER? Do you know how long it takes to get contacts? Especially when it's the holiday season? DAMN! It's ok.. at least the grey isn't too out there. My sis saw me with my new hair and my contacts today and said I didn't look full asian.. she said I looked mixed. Then my hairstylist called me korean.. along with many others. 

:( I'm a confused nationality.

LOTS OF LOVE! 

I'm off to buy more liquid liners tomorrow. OH I did a small cherry cultures haul, we'll see how it goes. Used the code for 20% off everything anyways! :D

Katie

ps- obviously Lancome liner failed miserably at both tests

pps- Wet and Wild failed too because it was TOO lasting. You have to pull at your skin and rub it till it's red to get it off. UGH!! DON'T BUY IT
