:) BIZZZACKKKKK!!!!

Ok, I have a loooong post planned that'll cover this hectic past few days. I had some bad luck this friday (wth!) and of course I'm going to talk about my vegas trip! YES many many pics to come!!!! Ok but before I leave, some pics from my cell. Did any of you guys watch Pick Up Artist 2? Anyone remember that asian guy named Brian? We met him while shopping in Vegas!!

BF and Brian


Ok.. there's a story to this picture. Bf spotted Brian first when he was walking towards H&M. He chased him down and acted like a kid who saw candy for the first time. He tapped Brian on the shoulder and was all "Hey! Weren't you on Pick Up Artist?"

Brian was all YEAAAA.. and then Christian said "ahhh.. ohh.. I'm sorry dude.. I forgot your name!!" HAHAHAHAHAH!!!! Brian laughed and said he was Brian. Then Christian asked if he could take a pic with him and I fumbled around for my camera but realized I didn't bring it so we used our cell phones instead!

My room key. (i'll talk about bellagio later and why it's never been likable to me, but then again, I don't like the Wynn either.)


My 21st bday gift..... WAY EARLY!! Flash from my cell phone.


If it were set as a ring.





0.71 Carats, single VS1 diamond, platinum setting, 18kt White gold chain.
Customized by my mom's jeweler (mom's hobby is customizing jewelry and shiny crap).

Story behind THIS one is that I was running errands with my mom last weekend and she forgot to pick up her latest "creation" that she and her jeweler forged. I was bored and you know me and shiny objects.. let's all remember the firecracker story.. wait.. did I post that? I don't remember! sarah knows! Anyway.. I was playing with some necklaces and jewels when I saw this single 0.71 carat that was completely set and chained in Platinum but it was a class E diamond.. so those who know jewels can bet your damn asses that tiny thing is worth around 6 thousand smacks. I didn't like the setting though but I was hypnotized by how shiny it was. My mom noticed and asked if I liked it. I said yes but I told her how I would set it and what type of chain it SHOULD have been to be pretty and more simple. I like simpler and cleaner looking things. The jeweler came over and took out the VS1 Diamond (slightly lower class than class E) and showed me the settings and chains. Now remember I was just PLAYING AROUND like usual. The final result is what you see above. My mom asked how much it would cost to make it, thought about it, and said here's your first "close to big, actually expensive, start off" diamond. I thought she was kidding and we left to go eat dinner with my relatives. Then she disappears from the dinner and comes back after 15 minutes and hands me a little bag. OMFG SHE WASN'T KIDDING!!!!!! This thing is close to being 1 carat!! WOOOOO!!!

:) Thank you mommy.. I know you don't read this.. and you can't understand english very well.. and you walk around in your underwear in a very embarassing way when you shouldn't.. and you pick your nose in the car.. I LOVE YOU!!

:) Happy chinese new years everyone!

Product Review

Quick Blurb:
I used to use this back when I stole makeup remover off my mom but she stopped using this so I did too! I recently re-discovered this and OMG I can't remember why I didn't just go get it myself!!




COST:
$10, not bad not bad.

ITEM:
Victoria's Secret Total Makeup Remover

COLOR/Texture/Whatnots:
This is safe to take off makeup ALL over your face. There's makeup remover out there that only takes off your eye makeup and it'll break your face out if you try to take off your face makeup but not this one!! SUPER SAFE! SAFE FOR SENSITIVE EYES TOO!! I have very sensitive eyes and it doesn't sting or leave those oily residue shit that flies around in your eye making your vision cloudy. Kind of a plastic-y alcohol-ish smell to it, not too strong though. Don't worry, doesn't sting! NO OILY/ANY RESIDUE ON YOUR FACE AFTER USE!! Ok, it's one of those that you see there's oil in it, some white layer in the middle, and water I guess. You have to shake it before every use to get the full effect. It's weird that there's some glitter in the bottle.. but you don't get it on your face or on your cotton pad at all.. it's REALLY weird. Glitter doesn't effect the eyes either so I'm not sure WHERE the glitter goes.. unless there really isn't glitter in there and my eyes are playing tricks on me. They're really tiny though.

THOUGHTS/HOW?:
Better than Mandom. I liked Mandom but it never really took off my makeup THAT WELL. It never completely took off my waterproof eyeliner or I'd find I still had some foundation on even after carefully "removing" my makeup. I like the smell of mandom better but this one just takes things off wayyyyyyyyyyy better. I like how this one isn't a pump either! Easier for traveling!

PROS:
- cute bottle, good for traveling
- works!
- no break outs at all!!
- TAKES IT ALLLLLLL OFF

CONS:
- alcoholish smell
- availablity

UGHHh. Availablity. This shit is hard to get. Most VS stores will be SOLD OUT of this because it runs out FAST! Even the sales lady at the counter said it was a good idea that I was stocking up because they never know when they're getting more in and it always flies off the shelves.

:) Ok, time for me to do my weekly disappearing trick!

Much love!

I suck at titles

*sigh* Creative titles just never seem to come to me lately. Not that I've really tried to post much anyway. I'm borrowing my sis's computer while I'm staying at my house here in YL. :) Yay for holidays and no school tomorrow! BOO FOR SHITTY CAR RELATED CRAP. My 30,000 miles maintenance is due because my car is 300 miles away from touching 60,000 miles. That'll be a whopping $300 plus dollars. Plus all my tires are worn and pretty much verge on dying, so I have to get 4 new tires tomorrow, hello mr. new yokohamas! I have to fix my alignment too because driving in LA with all it's nasty potholes and uneven roads has thrown my car in whack mode. I just got an oil change a week ago tho! WOOHOO!

WANG LEE HOM


I'm going to Vegas next week from Friday night Jan 23 till Sunday night Jan 25. HELLOOOOO WANG LEE HOM!! His concert is on Jan 24 at the MGM Grand. To you chinese music lovers, I know you're jealous. I got to go to Jay Chou's concert in 2007 and now Wang Lee Hom's concert?? EEP!! Am I going to vegas just for this concert? Yes I am. LOL. I'll be bringing the hubby along with me this time so he won't be all whiny about missing another good concert, even though his canto ass can't understand a lick of mandarin and taiwanese. :) It's ok baby, don't cry. At least you know how to say "give me money" in mandarin! LMAO!! I don't remember when I started this blog.. was it before or after the Jay Chou concert? I don't remember blogging about it.. perhaps I'll do that next time. Ok so after this, if I get to see JJ Lin live in concert anytime during my life time, I have officially lived the good life. *sigh* I love my mommy and her friends who want nothing more than to make me happy. OH.

SPEAKING OF FRIENDS. My dad played golf with the Rams. No, not the animal, the NFL football team. It was some kind of event that went on near Pechanga and my dad didn't even know who he was playing with until the awards dinner. At first, before he played, he looked around and was all.. "why are there so many black people?" .. then at the awards dinner, he was all "why are there so many cameras? I'm famous?" .. then he realized that those giant black people were really a famous football team and that his partner was a retired player who now runs a foundation for retired NFL players to raise money for certain causes. My dad wanted to get some autographs but he was too afraid to ask but his partner looked over at him and said "Hahaha I bet you want some autographs eh? I'll handle it!" So he grabbed these mini football things they had lying around and yelled over to his ex team mates and they all huddled to sign it for my dad. I'll take a pic of it when my dad isn't baby-ing it later.

Don't you love random stories!? How random can you get with those two above.


SHOPPING

Ok so I went to return what my mom got me for xmas because it was wayyy too small and i didn't like the horizontal stripe pattern.

This was $98 without tax


I got these!!

Colors look so much better in real life. $69


I couldn't resist another cute jacket!! $69

They only had a size too big left.. so I'm just going to get it adjusted by my super awesome tailor.


I can't wait for the concert!

Oh as promised, my new phone!! Blackberry Bold!! The king of my purse!! Mother got the Samsung BlackJack II in white/pink, and my sister got the iPhone 8 GB, my dad got the Motorola V9 razor looking thing.

i lied.

I'm SOOOO sorry!!

I totally lied in my last post. Well.. it couldn't be helped. My internet wouldn't work at my apartment all week and i was like.. wtf? Then I found out my cousin hadn't paid the internet/cable bill. So.... ya. Now that I'm on a comp, my camera is still in my apt.

:( Ok Angie, you'll get your package soon enough. I still haven't mailed it! LOL!!

Hmm.. I have a lot of those tiny sample sifter jars from all those foundation samples I've ordered in the past. I need to clean out that drawer and get rid of some stuff. Anyone want some pigment samples? That's a pretty good idea.. I'd go on with it but my site's not popular enough for anyone to really want anything so poo!!

:) I swear.. real post coming..... eventually. I just found out I have a mid term coming up already this coming friday!! EEEEP!!

:) Valentines is coming up, WOOHOOOO!!

Stila's Barbie collection too!!

God.. I love fruity pebbles with my frozen yogurt..

and staring at ppl working out in the gym is almost enough to motivate me.

ALMOSTTTTTTTTTTT.

:) Hostess.

Lots of love to those who still read this regularly!!

i have uncreative titles

:( My poor blog!! It's been neglected for so long!! I seriously blame this on school starting.. the bf.. the family.. everything that keeps me away from a computer! 

:) I swear an update is coming up. I have so much to talk about!! Sad thing is, no camera with me right now, it's up at my apartment. 

Oh what to talk about.. my NEW PHONE (YES!!), my old used-to-love makeup remover turned recent love again, my haul from the new Redhead Blonde Brunette Mac collection, ummm.. stuff and stuff and stuff. 

I'm guess-a-mating that the post will be up either Tues.. or weds! 

=P Sorry it's taking so long angie!! I'm shipping your package on tues! 

I have so many tangent stories that don't even relate to each other.. but I'm forgetting details! =O oh no! :( Sorry Sarah.. I fail at keeping you amused!

*sigh* this is what I get for spending so much free time with the bf and choosing classes that keep me at school from 9 AM till 6 PM.. -.- stupid textbooks and your god awful prices.

Till next time!

New Years Eve dress!

.... I wish I could find the dresses online but I can't, so no pics! -.- And I'm not modeling them right now, my stick on tits (bra) are in the car! 

Here's the story, I needed a dress for New Years eve.. ended up going to 2 malls, came out with 3 super sexy slap my knee hoe-tastic dresses! I'm trying to decide between a black one and a white one, the third is saved for something else in the future (not sure what, but it's cute). 

HELP! 

what I was thinking is.. black is slimming.. not to mention my flat ass looks ASSERIFFIC in it (surprisingly).. but the white one is just DIFFERENT! White for snow.. for winter.. ok. LOL. 

*sigh*
