Happy New Year!

WARNING: PICTURE HEAVY AND LOTS OF READING!!!

I'm doing this post because I might not be able to post an entry on New Year's Day because I'm gonna be at work! *Sigh* I'm still on probation so I can't really do much! :( So, I wanna greet everyone..

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!!!

2009 Here We Come!!!!

So much things happened in 2008 that I will surely cherish.. All those memories..

January - New Year's last year was fun! I just graduated from College, and was so happy that finally I was done with books (for now). I also got engaged, and eventually got married :) It was also my 21st birthday :D My hair was freaking long! :) I miss it! :D

February - Took my board exam, got hired for my very first job ever, got my first paycheck too! Sweeet!! Money! Shopping starts this month...

March - Started watching Youtube tutorials. Got addicted to it, make up collecting started this month. Whew. I started with so little, then I noticed it growing each month. lol! Back then, I only have the basics. The only eyeshadows I have was Carbon e/s and a Bronzy one. I forgot the name. I also used to use foundation - from Studio fix to all those very thick coverage one. I only need the small steralite clear drawer back then :P

April, May, June, July, and August - lots of working, partying, and hoarding make up happened these months :) Co-workers and I drinking greygoose! Yum! and some pictures of me with full make up. I used to dig nude lips and smokey eyes a lot! hahah!

September - It was the husband's 22nd birthday! I surprised him with a party. :D I also dyed my hair dark brown :D I also bought my very 1st car :D

October - I only remember working 16 hours almost everyday. LOL! Getting ready for the holidays that's why! and lots of bills.. shopping.. make up hoarding!

November - Thanksgiving Day! Gone crazy at Cabazon. Here's the link (click) to some of the things I bought at Cabazon. :) Went there at around 12am. Shoot never again maybe next year! haha!

December - I got my MACBOOK! Hooray! :) Merry Christmas Everyone! I'm really thankful for everything I have now. I had a blast on 2008! Hoping to have a better year this 2009! :) Looking forward to it. I don't want to do a New Year's Resolution because I just can't guarantee that I'll do it. Haha. PS: Here's what my skin looks like now after my breakthrough with LY-Na. I still have little blemishes on my forehead which I think will never go away! lol! I dunno if they are pimples but they are these fleshy bumps, really small. I guess I need to go see a derma? :/

Happy Holidays Everyone! :) I hope you all do a year long post also :D

My birthday is coming up (next week), should I still make a wishlist? Hmmm....

I also got the Rose Salve for my dry lips. :) Then I went to the MAC stores to return 6 empty containers so I got a free lipstick! Yay for free stuff! :) I got the Cremesheen lipstick in DARE YOU.

Then after that, to Mitsuwa to buy some pore strips for the husband :) I was looking for the PINK Lucido-L but did not find it, so I got this one instead.

Then we went to The Block and I decided to check out their CCO, and heres what I got: Neo Sci Fi Eyeshadow in Magnetic Fields and a Dazzleglass in SPANKING RICH. Super pretty glittery reddish something :p I also got this Hello Kitty Skin for my Itouch :) Super cute! :)

Then last stop was the Amore Store. I was going to get the Hanskin Caviar BB cream but I changed my mind. I think I wanna try the Le'gere one first! :) I was also going to get some Laneiege stuff but the lady told me to try the samples 1st. She gave me tons and a free pearl earrings. What did I get? Some pretty faux lashes! :) Aren't they pretty?

I had a long day today and had too much fun! :) But its all worth it. Thanks to the husband :) I have work tomorrow :( So I gotta sleep now. Hope you ladies have a good today later :) Peace Out! :P

My Early Christmas Gift

Guess what?? I got my early Christmas gift today! Yay! I'm so stoked! Ahh! I just wanna scream for joy! haha! Ok, I'll let you guys see it...

TA-DA!!!!

It's one of my Christmas Wishlist. The 13 inch Aluminum 2.4Ghz! :) The husband couldn't wait to give it til Christmas so he decided for me to open it already so he could see my reaction.

My reaction??? Ecstatic!! :D Thank you so much my Angel!!! :D

.

Ok, so I feel extremely excited so I started playing it, and boy it was damn hard! I was a PC user and getting use to this toy is just so complicated. I need help! I just learned how to copy paste and it was still hard for me to get used to that. I find myself right clicking. WTF! I forgot it doesn't have a right click :( I have a lot of things I wanna know so you mac users out there, I need help! Seriously..

1. How do you maximize it without showing the applications on the bottom side? (Refer to the last picture) I want to be able to see the full screen and not have those little buttons down there.

Ok, I think that's it for now. I can't remember those questions I had in mind awhile ago. haha. I'm such a dork! :p

Oh, and when I double click the "add image" here at blogger, it doesn't seem to respond right away. ahhh! I'm getting crazy. I guess I just got used to my PC and MAC is just too complicated for me :(

Oh, and yes, I'm still withdrawing from LY-NA Pearl Cream. I feel like an addict that has been banned to use her Illegal drugs. :( I'm going to OC tomorrow with the husband. I should be sleeping now because I need to get up early tomorrow. I will be going to Amore store. I think I will get either a Laneige product or that Caviar BB cream that I saw. We'll see. Well, good night ladies! I will be posting some pictures soon! Yay! :) and maybe new videos :)

He's my best friend, the one who always listens to all of my corny jokes, the one whom I cry to whenever I feel hurt, down, or sad. He taught me the meaning of "faithfulness", he's the one who can make me laugh in tears. He is the One, and I know it. Oh, and he's my man :)

I love you my Angel :) Always and All Ways :)

Some of the Hauls

I told you guys I've been hauling right?? :p Well, let me show you SOME of my hauls. I'll show you guys next time the other stuff that I got. I was going to post some of the things I got for the family and relatives but I'm afraid they might read my blog and see it. haha, then the surprise would be ruined. We spent lots for the family/relatives and I thank God and hope that I'll be able to pay my card soon. haha. Yes, I owe damn banks some moolah and I gotta work hard so I can pay it back. :) I can't wait to gift wrap those gifts :)

Anywho, back to my hauls :) Here are some of those things that I got on the Thanksgiving week and today:

These are some of the bags I got during Black Friday at Cabazon. Those are the 2 Coach purses I got for a really great prize, then the Juicy Couture bag was a steal also :D The Guess boots was also a steal for 50% off! haha! :) I love itt! I also got some True Religion jeans for me and the husband. :) Don't mind my flat butt. lol!

The Laneige Strawberry Peel Gel and some samples are from Amore store which I got today. They even gave me a pearl earrings as a free with my purchase. How sweet!:) I forgot to take pictures of the earrings. I wanna go back there again! I tried the Caviar BB cream and it went smoothly onto my skin. The shade also matches mine. :D I also went to Mitsuwa today and got the Lucido L in green for casual wave which I forgot to take a picture of it. I went to Sephora and got me the Nars Deep Throat Blush. Yeeess its deep throating blush! haha! :p (again, not pictured)

Here are the things I got at Little Tokyo and Marukai. I got 6 Red Cherry faux lashes, eyelash glue (which my friend told me it stings so now I'm scared to try it :P), Naris Egg Peel, and Naris Natural Pack for blackheads. :)

Here's a picture of me yesterday :)

And here's my ASIAN man. :) I love him so much! he means the world to me. :) I will marry him over and over again :)

This is it for now. I'll take pictures of the other things next time. :) I'll update the wishlist soon. I will try to work 16 hours this week so I probably won't update that much. NO MORE SHOPPING FOR MEEEE!! Well, maybe after the Holidays. I feel sorry for the husband because I know he's bored and tired of me going to the mall like everyday :( Goodnight Ladies! :)

The Wallflower - Contest Entry

I entered another contest. The 4th contest I joined so far. The 3 ones, I did not win. haha! So I will try again this time :)

Paperdollrevenge/Diana is hosting a very interesting contest called, "The Quickie Mini Contest" where you need to write a blurb about yourself. Check her blogspot out for more information and rules of the said contest.

To be honest, I'm not very good with words. I hated doing thesis in highschool and college. I hated my English teacher for making me write multiple essays and stories. lol. But on the other side, I love blogging. Telling things about myself, letting out all of my rants, exposing all of my insecurities. haha. I had so much insecurities growing up!

The Wallflower
She was the girl who's always been at the background.
Did you notice her? Many will say no. The girl who had a lot of insecurities in life,
always been so conscious about herself. Always been thinking she will never be pretty like her mother.
Girls made fun of her, guys laughed at her. But now, everything changed. Shyness in her disappeared.
They laughed at her, she laughed with them. Are you ready? Because she's here!
Indeed a flower, but not meant on the wall.

Elementary, I was very shy, quiet, always on the corner. Nobody notice anyway so I did not care. I don't talk unless you talk to me. I can't even believe that I joined a pageant when I was in 5th grade. I remember the feeling - I wanted to pass out in front of these people. I was stammering when they asked me to introduce myself. I felt a knot on my stomach, ready to vomit. hahah! Gross! I won 2nd place though :) Also my mother is very pretty. People always say, "Is that your mother? How come you don't look like her? She's very pretty." I've always wanted to look like my mom. Japanese eyes, fair skinned, black hair.


Highschool, trying to come out of the shell, but was having a hard time because of my insecurities. Lots of questions always come up to my mind such as "How come she have that perfect skin? How come she got big boobs? Wow, she has a nice butt." I look in the mirror, I don't see those. I want those. I was a late bloomer. I was very skinny.


College, Somehow, college made me feel very independent. I learned how to put some make up on, try out some new styles of clothing, speak up for myself, and just love myself for who I am. :) Yes, I still have some insecurities. Who doesn't? But I'm more comfortable on my skin now. Loving and living life to the fullest!

So that's it for my contest entry. :) Hope I did not bore your minds out! haha! :) I will update my WISHLIST soon. Right now, I feel so tired. My back hurts! I went to the doctor and I had a blood draw. Ugh! I'm not very good with needles nor pain. :( I coudn't handle it :( I'll be in OC and LA tomorrow. G'nite ladies! :)
