It was so much fun! I'm glad I didn't skip this! The whole entire Disneyland park was closed for seniors! It started from 9:30 PM and ended at 6:00 AM! so I am so tired right now I just got back. It was sort of like a one day trip kinda thing! It was FUNN! We stayed at California Adventures from 9:30pm to 12am. and went to disneyland and stayed until 6. The clubs were cool, the Dj was pretty good and the songs were good too! hella ppl were freak dancing, and I can never forget my friend Ariel. That damn freak-a-leak. LOL! thats my girl though, I call her the energizer bunny! She got like 6 guys on the dance floor! my friend brittany was getting some tooo! Some guys were tryna dance with me... but hey, I'm a good girlfriend and I dissed they asses! lol. Vern & Esteban were protecting me from those freaky guys on the floor. it was so fun!! there were like a lot of clubs but the main one was were we were at. damn.. staying up until 6! The ride to LA was ridiculously long!! 7 hours? 5 hour ? 6? iuno.. it was so freaking long! put it this way. We left at 1 and got there at 8:45 we also had 2 rest breaks. So we left disneyland at 6.. and we were so freakin tried. We were like zombies. My feet was in pain.. we didn't even sit that whole time. Me Ariel and Vern didn't even eat!! lol. If I weight myself i'm probably hella light. Man I have soo much to tell.. it's just too much! I'll get back to yalls later!!

I did a tutorial two days ago on the Leona Lewis look. it's obvious that i haven't uploaded it yet. I've been too occupied doing other things. I got my camera the same day I did the look. So I was just experimenting with that the whole time and I didnt have any time to upload it and edit it and all that stuff. Then right after I went to go hang out with my boyfriend.

On Wednesday.. My older cousin came over to help me plan for my eighteenth birthday. I guess you can call it a mini cotillon. I really didnt want one, but my mom forced me into doing so. Therefore I had to proceed with the plans. it's okay i'll probably get more money than usual and probably buy more parts for my camera. Any hoo back to my day.. we spent the whole time planning and the invitations came in, so we had to do all those manually along with the thank you cards and we were missing glue to put it all together. Afterwards my cousins came over and we went to sonics for happy hour. Then went to the park to meet up with my other cousins, and from then on took pictures with my new camera like crazy. Then I came home and uploaded all the pictures and made resized them n sent them to ppl n all that. as we speak the pictures are still being uploaded to my flickr.

Today later on in the afternoon I will be heading to my senior grad night at Disney land. Hopefully it'll be cool. it's a one night thing. ill be back friday afternoon. therefore me schedule will be busy. Friday i gotta get some sleep in. Saturday morning, I gotta attend my friends and cousins graduation. After are parties. lol i am so busy!!!!!! next week gotta look for my dress for my birthday have photoshoots pick out party favors and all that make the program for it, slide show. etc!! oh man.. then on friday ill be heading to oakland b/c the following saturday is my placement test for my college. therefore i have to study my math section. ugh....

I'm still an amateur. I still need a lot of work. I'm thinking about taking them free classes over at that place where I bought this camera. I'm just pretty good at the basics. Focusing & Zooming. lol!

I graduated on Saturday morning. and It was freakin sprinkling! it was so cloudy too! I was expecting a nice sunny weather. But it's okay! I'm just proud I didn't trip getting my diploma wearing heels on the wobbly stage. It really didnt hit me that I graduated highschool I really dont feel it. I'm just glad it's the summer! woo hoo!! Now I can catch up on my sleep and do some tutorials!

I'll post up pictures of my graduation soon!

I'm finally done with finals! I graduated with a 3.0. so I am pretty excited about that. I thought I was going to mess up during the finals but I tried my best to study. I'm not the brightest person in the world.

Today I'm going to buy my nikon D300! IM SO FREAKIN EXCitEd FOR THAT! OMG! I saved up my money and graduation money and my mom is kinda helping me! yay! were going this after noon! I will definitely post pictures of my amateur skills. LOL! I know nothing. But I'll hopefully take those free classes that they have.

Maybe i'll do a tutorial today. If i can get my lazy ass out of bed! it feels so good to spend time with my bed! lol!! right now I'm watching Food network. love that channel! but I can't cook for smack! maybe fried rice.. n that's it! lol! i'll but updating later!!

I did a video on my hair products and all that. It was requested by a few ppl, but i forgot who.. enjoy!

On Friday my boyfriend and I went to go watch Iron man! That was such a great movie! you guys should really check it out! I hope they make a number two! The previews before the movie were great also. Im excited to watch batman the dark night on theaters! My boyfriend is a big fan of batman, so we will definitely watch that! I had a great time with him on friday

Geez!! I should be getting a head start on my studying, but it feels too damn good to not have hw or anything to study for [except finals coming up next week]. I don't know I just want to relax and update on my blog that I haven't been updating for the past months. Hopefully ppl will come back and see it again. lol, so far I dont have much visitors but it's okay.

Tomorrow is our senior brunch, and my boyfriend and I went to go shop around for dresses and I found the perfect one. So i'm excited for that. And we get our yearbooks! only seniors though. I still need to get my card signed by the deans so I can finally get my cap and gown! I can't wait to decorate my cap. I still don't know what to put on it.. geez.. so much to do so little time. Graduation is next Saturday! yoo hooo!! I CANNOT WAIT I AM so excited! Some much great things are around the corner.. my birthday will be coming up pretty soon also! wow..

I am just to overwhelmed.

I'm thinking about investing on an SLR camera. I'm really interested in doing some fun photography now. Therefore I am saving my lunch money, allowance money, birthday money, graduation money and every single penny [i think lol]. Well I'm really trying to save up to get me one of those Nikon digital slr cameras. I want the D200 but I don't now where to find it around my city. So here are some of the camera's i'm thinking about getting.

the first choice, and the cheapest on "MY LIST" is the Nikon D80 D-slr 10.2 MP
and it's $799 w/ out the lense. ergg..



The one I want the most is the Nikon D200 D-slr 10.2 MP
$1,399.95 i think it's w/ the lense.. :/ I really want this , the quality is amazing!




Lastly the most pricey on my list is the nikon D300 d-slr 12.3 MP
$1,799.95! WITHOUT THE LENSE! w/ the lense it can cost up to 2,599! DENGG! i know right! GOOOD Freakin quality! If i can save for that much i def. will get this!


I was browsing through sample pictures and I think the D200 is great for me! So i'm thinking about getting that. But I am not sure where I can find it.

I mainly want to do photography because I love taking pictures. Pictures of family friends loved ones scenery anything that can catch memories. The great part about it is looking through the pictures you've taken and reminiscing about past memories. I am very fond about photography. I also want to mix make up and photography together. Which will create ART. So I really can't wait to get one of these camera's. Hopefully near my birthday. I'm totally saving up!

About the product: Mavala Double Lash is a nighttime treatment that lengthens and strengthens lashes, helps stimulate faster growth and protects them. The natural ingredients give brightness and thickness to the lashes.

Quantity: One .3 fl. oz. bottle. Made in Switzerland by Mavala®.

Ingredients: Water, Magnesium, Aluminum Silicate, Butylene Glycol, Propylene Glycol, Alcohol Denat, Xanthan Gum, Lactococcus Ferment, Glycosaminoglycans, Proline, Riboflavin, Methylparaben, Propylparaben, Hexamidine Diisethionate, 2-Bromo-2Nitropropane-1, 3-Diol.

I heard this product from pursebuzz, which she heard from one of her fellow pursebuzzer. Before this I was using the ardell brow & lash growth for about a week or so. Then I heard about this, and it seemed like it would give better results! So I purchased it and tried to apply it on a daily basis therefore I can see results quickly. It has really made great changes to my lashes. I can tell that it has strengthen & lengthen, I'm not too sure about the thickening, but maybe it will get there. I've been using this product for about 3 weeks now or maybe less. I have seen a difference in my eyelashes.

Pros: Everything about it! You apply it on at night which is really great since it can give you the full treatment while you are sleeping! It really lengthens & strengthen lashes if used daily!

Cons: nothing much, it's just that you really have to apply the product onto the roots of your lashes to get the full effect. Usually dipping the wand into the product constantly will do the job and applying it to the roots & tips of the lashes.

I was bored after coming home from hanging out with my boyfriend. He also went to go gamble at jackson. So to kill time by waiting for his phone call back home, I decided to do a what's in my purse video. At the same time I got this new stunning bag!



Juicy Couture Daydreamer velour shoulder bag

Details of the bag. :D

On Saturday I had time to visit my brother. But before that I completed my mother's day shopping by buying flowers for my mom and my grandmother. I also bought my brother a small stick balloon.

Here are the pictures to my visit with him. :D
And also proof that his picture is so clear and no dirt no nothing was covering his face [read last entry for further description]

Isn't he handsome? They say he looks almost exactly like my other older brother when he was younger.




It was good spending time with him. A few tears came out. :( ..
Oh yea, while we are on the subject of my brother, On Friday I had to present a poem which we had to choose out of a book and a a song to relate to it. So I choose this poem that had to do with a mother losing her son. It reminded me of my parents losing my oldest brother. So the song i related the poem to was "One sweet day" by Mariah Carey. It made my teacher a bit teary eyed. I dedicated that to my oldest brother.

This was a request from Cmiele115 on youtube. The request was to do a clubbing look. So I thought of night time, and smoky dramatic eyes. Well mines isn't too dramatic but its smoky. So thanks for the request! I really love this loook!

Today is my oldest brothers birthday. He turned 23 today! YAY. I always wanted to meet him. He passed away when he was four because he had leukemia. How depressing for my parents. So I never got to meet him. All that's left is my brother and I. My brother is off to college so it's just me at the house.

Here are some old hauls that I wanted to share with everyone. I was just bored and I thought I needed to update on my blogspot. So here are the updates! :D

I bought two mineralize foundation from mac. One in Medium Dark & Medium plus. I bought Medium plus first and I thought since summer is coming up, I'll get one that a darker tone. So I got medium dark. I'm debating on getting Medium. I think I will.. I just want to mix the colors around and cook up a perfect color for my skin tone. So far this spring my tone is a medium plus. It's kind of off by a different color, but it looks fine.

I compared the two mineralize foundation to the Bare mineral foundation in medium beige.


Just thought I'd do a hand swatch. not much of a difference eh?

I am more of the medium beige color. If only they had that color in MAC. but Medium plus is fine.
________________________

Next is a comparison between my setting powders for my foundation. I have Blot powder in MEDIUM DARK, Select Sheer in NC 30 & Iridescent loose in SILVER DUSK.

Here are my hand swatches.

Outside appearnce


I've been using the blot powder in medium dark to set my foundation. It works pretty well. and It calms the oily parts on my T-zone, which is good. But it doesn't last all day. I haven't actually tried the select sheer loose powder on a daily basis. But it seems really good. It goes on pretty silky, which I like :). i love the silkiness. The Iridescent loose powder in silver dusk just adds shimmer to my foundation which can change into a dewy look.

I got a few things from the Naughty Nautical line. Mostly eyeshadows & pigments. I'm not too much of a lip person, but I do love lipsticks & lip glosses. I also got the 3D glitter from the heathertte collection. :)

My haul


Eyeshadows, Lustreglasses & a Liner

I miss posting interesting things on my blog, such as hauls that I bought, and swatches of different makeup items I purchased. I will try to do more of it. I'm guess that once I go to college, I really gotta focus so I won't have anytime fussing around with blogspot or making video tutorial, but that will probably be in august. So during the summer, I will do as much as I can. There will be time during the year where i will update and make some videos, maybe when i come home for the weekend or for holidays.

So I got a new chat box! it looks way prettier than my other one. I love it. I was reading Mimi's blog, and she was making a new website of her own! woo hoo! can't wait to see what it will look like. It gave me the idea of making one too, but I think it will be too much work.

Anyways graduation is coming up! I can't wait. It's like in two weeks! Senior year went by in the QUICKNESS. Now i'll be off to college majoring in nursing. I know.. typical filipino.. But, I really don't know what else to do. And I got accepted to the nursing program. My old friend from Middle School might be my roommate, so I am excited for that. we have a lot of catching up to do!

Well I gotta go to sleep. Its like almost 1am over here. And I have school tomorrow. I can't go to sleep though. Just waiting for my boyfriend to call me already. Well ill update this later!

I didn't know what to title this entry. Wow, I didnt even know people were still checking out my blog? I am so amazed, it makes me want to most more things in here which I will do. I just can't believe it. I thought it was totally abandoned. So now that I know people still checks it out.. I will be posting in it as often as i can.

I uploaded some videos on here, so it should be below all these entries. I didn't accompany them with pictures, because I really don't know where the are right now. My desktop is in the process of getting fixed. I have to re upload everything... so it would just be a hassle searching for pictures and putting it on my blog. for future tutorial and review, i will probably upload pictures and etc. Well other than that, I'll try my best to update thiss! take care!

d0initsimple & I have made a review video of this about 3 times! But for some reason, I keep accidentally deleting it. So this is one of the surviving ones. It wasn't how we expected it to be b/c we wanted it to be a serious review. But atleast it's something right?
