Creepy Cute Continued

As I mentioned in my previous post, I dropped my camera and these pictures came back up for whatever reason. I like this cute yet gothic style that kinda accentuates the bags lol. (・。・;)




So late

So I never got time to make that make up tutorial. Things just kept coming up. I was running errands with my mom and on Saturday I was helping Dianna's sort-of-boyfriend Kevin shop for her present and hung out with Shelley, John, Ivan, and Kelsea. Which I would show you but my memory card keeps effing up! I think I pulled it out once without ejecting it properly and it's scratched or something. but then the other day I dropped my camera and my pictures I thought I lost before resurfaced? So I'll post the a continuation of Creepy Cute. Anyway on some day I don't remember which I went out for pho with Jenn and Yueshi because she came back from Nebraska. :3 I had summer rolls instead.


 We went to this place called Let Them Eat Cupcakes but when we got there they were closed, but the guy inside still had a lot of extras so he gave them to us. (^▽^ ) The right is manga, left is snickerdoodle.

Omg 3 days before Christmas haul

Earlier in the morning I went to Chinatown with my mom for some pho and I got these 2 there. I'm probably gonna give the green tofu to Amy and keep the dumpling because my previous phone charms fell off again somewhere. (=A=;;) I went to Todai for the Leo Club Christmas party and ate SO much sushi and tempura I felt like I was dying. I couldn't even sit up or walk properly and I had a crepe, too. But then I remembered this trick to make yourself feel less full is to consume something really sour so I was sucking on lemons during the last 15 minutes which actually worked well. The Leo Club officers had presents for us and I ended up grabbing this piggy bank which is gonna be really helpful in my trying to save for all the things I want to buy online lol. And especially my cosplay fund. ヽ(´▽`)/

 We walked around Waikiki and went to Pineapple County where I got this chiffon collared shirt.
 I went with Jenn to WalMart so she could finish up on her Christmas shopping and I picked up these. It is SO hard to find a liquid eyeliner in a brush pen form (and cheap too)! I remember hearing about Physician Formula having one but they're usually always sold out of black, but I finally got my hands on one. ( ;∀;) The DollyWink one ($18-19) is forever sold out at Don Quijote, and the Kat Von D at Sephora is $17. :/ And the Kat Von D ran out quick according to Jenn, but this one is more or less $10. :)
 Old Navy had the biggest sale on sweaters! I got this one for half off the original price ($32) I'm wondering whether or not I should keep it or give it to my friend as a Christmas present.

Creepy Cute

As you've noticed, I've updated my layout. I've spent the passed 2 days at home watching movies and when my main movie/tvshow site was down yesterday, it gave me time to change the layout, favicon, etc. And today I went to the new Safeway down the street, picked up some stuff and had the house mostly to myself.  ( ´∀`)






And for whatever reason, the memory card for my camera has been fucking up so of the 80 I took, I could only recover less than 10. (╬ ಠ益ಠ)

Since I'm probably gonna be home tomorrow too, this is pretty much what I'll be eating for possibly the rest of the week. I miss going on food runs with my brother. ( ;︵;) but hopefully he will be able to find and get me the cosmetic things that I want from Japan. c,: You think they sell lashes and Dolly Wink at the 7-11 there? Lol. (The closest store to the resort he's working at but it's still over half an hour away by car)
 Also since I'll have time, I'll make a make up tutorial for this. I got a lot of compliments at school when I wore it out then.(^ㅂ^ )

[REVIEW] Maybelline Falsies Mascara



So I bought this mascara a while ago and haven't really gotten to reviewing it but here you go. I had nothing else to do today, so I decided it was about time to get it done. :)
http://www.nitrolicious.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/Falsies_W_Brush.jpg

As you can see the brush is curved, but more resembling a spatula which is really great because the different angles you can use it in helps get every lash.

 Here it is on myself.

Bare lashes, curled.
 One coat.
 Two coats.
 Three Coats.

As you can see its full length is at two coats and anything after is just volume.

PROS:
  • Lengthening
  • Volumizing
  • Very waterproof 
  • Won't flake
  • Buildable
  • Holds curl
CONS: 
  • Difficult to wash off even with make up remover
Really, there's only one thing I don't like about it, but it's expected since it is waterproof. Needless to say I LOVE IT! :D

Weekend in Waikiki

The mall, Ala Moana has gotten pretty boring. That aside, I spent Saturday with Jennifer and we had lunch at California Pizza Kitchen. I've never been there before since my parents ALWAYS have to go to Chinese restaurants. (=д=;;) We had chipotle chicken pizza and some baby clam pasta. P:
 Then on Sunday I went again with John, Dianna, her sister, and Jessica. I treated them to udon at Marukame since Jessica had never been there. I love how Waikiki has all these streets and corners and every so often you'll come across some store you've never seen before with cool stuff inside. :)

So they were doing a stupid wave while I was walking across the street.


Face+random stuff haul

I went to WalMart with my mom the other day and grabbed a bunch of face things. I don't have a frequent problem with acne any more and since I ran out of my Biore Ice Cleanser, I got this Olay one to take off make up. I thought I should start working on my acne scars and whatnot so I picked up Porcelana Lightening Cream and Ambi Even & Clear Exfoliating Wash. I do not recommend The Porcelana because it's active ingredient is hydroquinone which is actually banned by the FDA in some European and Asian countries. But mind you, using it once won't give you cancer or something (maybe an allergic reaction as apparent in some people), and there is only some evidence it is harmful to your health. But if it's actually debatable on whether or not it is harmful, you're better off not risking it. As for me, I'm just gonna finish up this jar and look for something else to slab on my face.
I've been dying to try out the Maybelline Baby Lips, idk I probably just love the packaging and I've been really wanting a tinted lip balm.
On another day I hung out with Jennifer in Waikiki and my love for the Forever 21 there is beyond words. They have everything you could find online and then some. I found this in the plus size section but just had to have it. :,D
I taught myself how to make wire jewelery for a craft fair for school and so I decided to finally make a ring like this that I've always wanted and found some stones in Thinker Toys to use. But my teacher has the materials so I'll need to find some time to get wire. :P

I know for sure the one on the right is amethyst but the name of the other escapes me.

EDIT: Oops, almost forgot to mention I'm ordering these boots from YesStyle. (>∀<!!)
