NYC Flashback: Summer 2010

So I know there's a looong time left before I leave to NYC, but what's a blog about NYC without at least a few pictures?

I just found some pictures from my trip to NYC last summer! I even have some video but that's a bit harder to put here, but I'll see what I can do! ;D

Halleluya!! Finished registering for my college classes! (Tips for future freshman)

Hi Hi!

So I've been spending the last 2 days registering for my classes, and let me tell you that my schedule is super crazy! Since I'm doing an associates degree in Jewelry Design, I take a bunch of core classes right away. Originally I had a total of 11 classes!!! wtf!

So good to be back! (Plus a super brief Sephora lipstick review!)

Hello! Looooong time, no update :)

So finally, after about a month, I got my internet back at home! It's been such a drag here at home without it! Trying to catch up on my favorite blogs' posts and reading e-mails and seeing what my ex-classmates are up to this summer etc etc

So I know I promised an update on my grad dress and prom dress but I have to edit the pictures, so that'll take just 1 or 2 more days. I do however have some news! My 18th birthday is this friday! I'm excited because that's just a step closer to receiving more independence in my life plus it also means I'm that much closer to moving to NYC, which is probably what passerbys of my blog are waiting for :P
So I'd been dying for the longest time to buy myself a tube of jet black lipstick. Finally, after a little hunting, I found one at Sephora! It's Rouge Artist Intense lipstick #50.

This lipstick takes a little extra pressure than regular lipsticks to get true black color. That kinda ticked me off a little but whatevs! I really did like it though. It's not really moisturizing but it doesn't dry my lips either so that's good.


As you can tell by the picture: the problem I have with the lipstick is if my lips are even remotely chapped, the color will start to come out of the little cracks. Not to mention when I tried to put gloss over it, the lipstick came off kind of easily!

All in all I still like this lipstick, also good black lipstick is fairly hard to find so I'll just make do with this one :)

Sorry if this review sucked, it was super quick since I was excited to show you guys right away :P Here's a great review I found though from Temptalia!

Official hiatus (sorry!)

Sorry I've been out for about a week, or more! The thing is that I have lost the internet connection at home for some mysteriously flippin' reason! grrr!

I will not be able to make any official posts for a while but here's a mini-update on what's been going on in my life :)
  1. Graduated high school last Saturday! (picture of my graduation dress coming soon!)
  2. Prom next week (picture of my beautiful prom dress after prom coming soon as well!)
  3. Loooots of shopping (will take pics of my buys)
  4. Updating this from my hotel room! (Staying at Embassy Suites because of my brother's 9th grade graduation/ prom trip.)
If you want to keep up with me in the meantime while my internet gets sorted out, follow my twitter! (I update from my phone)
