I couldn't resist! They were all so pretty! I swear if I didn't stop myself, I would have bought 5 blushes AND all the Lip Glasses. Hell I would have bought all the lipsticks, too. I went to the MAC stand at Dillard's in the Park Place Mall. That girl who always helps me was there. She was so nice. I originally planned to only buy a couple of blushes and maybe a lip glass. But man! They were so pretty. Here's my haul!
MSF in Medium Dark, Blushes in Merrily & Love Joy, E/S duos in Sea & Sky and Hot Contrast, & Lip Glasses in Li' Hot Pepper & Major Minor
droool! I really wanted to get the blush in Nuance too, but if they have it a couple weeks from now when I get paid again, I'll get it. If not, i don't think I'll die. lol Here's more pictures of them open, w/ no flash, etc.
And finally swatches! You can barely see the MSF cause it blends so well with my skin!
I can't wait to play with them! =]

Getting Sick... =[
Ugh, everytime I feel myself getting sick I am in denial. My throat was hurting in the morning a couple days ago but I just took cough drops and ignored it. Now I really feel myself getting a stuffy nose and when I was driving to school today, I felt really sleepy. I really hate getting sick but I'm so prone to it! I'll take anything to prevent it!
I had work this morning then I went to school to finish my final paper which is due today. I finished it in 3 hours, thank god it was only 3 - 4 pages. I really liked this class though. It's a Gen Ed on Islam. You know, Muslims get a lot of flack because of 9/11 but it's really unfair because when you look at their religion, they really are like other Abrahamic religions (e.g. Judaism & Christianity) it's just the few bad apples (Osama, etc) who give them a bad name. They have some interesting points and it just confirms even further that people should educate themselves before they open their mouths. Did you know that Muslims even believe that Moses and Jesus are prophets? The only difference is they don't believe that Jesus is the son of God, but then again Jews don't think that either. All the Gen Ed classes I've taken have been pretty interesting to me actually.
Anyway, went to the Airman's attic after I finished my paper. There wasn't really anythin there but there were these cute pink baskets I got. Idk what I'm gonna put in them, but I'll figure something out. The little pink caddy I got from Ross a couple days ago I turned into my brush holder. I got inspiration from Enkore to make it Sephora-esque. I bought the little beads from Michael's it's so cute! I love it. I need to get more beads though.
I can't wait for tomorrow! I'm gonna finish my Final Test/Quiz online after this then I'm taking Nyquil and knocking the fuckk out! I need to exchange something at Victoria's Secret and check out Sonic View & Electroflash at MAC! =]

blue eyes
Lately I feel like I haven't been getting enough sleep! I go to sleep in the wee hours in the morning hoping maybe Brian will call me then I knock out and wake up around 9 or 10 to finish up my online class homework which is due by noon. Lucky thing class is almost over! My final paper is due Thursday and I have to take an online final that day too so I really need to catch up on my studying.
I seriously need to stop shopping because our contract with T-Mobile ends in a week and I need to buy my new phone! But of course, I bought new things.
My order from Coastal Scents was waiting in front of my door when I woke up this morning! I ordered 10 pink brushes from there.
L to R: chisel blush, stippling, angle blush, synthetic foundation, blending fluff, oval fluff shadow, synthetic concealer, round crease, sable powder, kolinksky lip
It was $46 including shipping for the whole thing, which isn't that bad, but I was disappointed in them. They're not really scratchy and they didn't shed when I first used them like my Sonia Kashuk powder brush did. But I guess, I did get what I paid for. Out of all of them the lip brush was my favorite. ha! I was most disappointed in the stippling brush. I washed all of them before I used it and the stippling brush shed like craaaazy! When I tried to use it with my powder, it didn't really pick up anything I got so frustrated I used my other brush. One thing about these brushes too is they kind of stink. There's just a weird smell to it. =[ I think I was better off bidding on eBay for the MAC stippling brush! HA!
I went to Ross today too and got this cute little pink organizer thingy. I put all my brushes in there.
Isn't it cute? I wanna put something in there though to make them stand up straight kind of how Sephora brushes look in store.
I even got this suuper cute LeSportsac bag for only $30! I wasn't gonna buy it but I thought of how expensive their bags are in the actual store.
So, I know I am absolutely no where near being a MUA but I was messing around with my Urban Decay shadows because they're so neglected now that I have a bunch of MAC e/s and this is what I got.
I can only do this to my face at night because people here would look at me like I'm crazy considering most of the population in Tucson are elderly. LOL. But I really like it. Please excuse my eyebrows though, they have a mind of their own.

1,2,3... poof
As you may, or not may not, have noticed, I've decided to delete all Dawn-related entries.
This thing has been implicating too many other people (such as Arissa and Royston and etc etc)... this is my main reason.
Reason 2 is that I guess Dawn is in enough shit as it is. I may dislike her (online persona), but I don't have a bloody heart of stone. I've been lectured by people (irl), and I guess I don't have to be so... relentless. I feel a bit bad. I was very annoyed by Noel when I wrote the 3rd entry, I guess.
Reason 3 is that I don't want to face a potential lawsuit. I don't have the time for this. Blah blah blah be brave fight her etc... You go and fight la! It's not you, of course easy for you to say. Lao niang got no money lor! Right now my bank got about 3k, hire semi LJ lawyer!? I mean, of course Dawn could still be going ahead with it la, but there's nothing I can do about that now. If I become bankrupt Wongsie told me that I cannot go JB (or overseas for that matter)... Have to apply for permit coz they will be scared that I flee the country!
Oh god suddenly had an image of myself giving away my prized possessions such as my sidekick, computer, accessories drawer, fluffy pink puff balls etc all to cackling men in suits.
So yup. Good for you if you've seen them, too bad if you didn't. Maybe you ought to read my blog like every 2 hours!
And I don't care if you think I'm contradicting myself or that you think I'm being cowardly. Sometimes, people have to do the things they don't wish to do.
Here's a few hugeass pictures to pretend to change the topic:
In the car on the way to Le Papillion during my birthday. I know! It's a crazily long time ago.
It was a simpler time, and I was gleeful because I wasn't the one who had to navigate, as it is my day afterall. :)
Outside the restaurant, which shut down already.
My dress is so short.
"Oh god!" you exclaim. "Are these pictures all going to be of you only? How dull!"
No... There's a photo of Mike and like 3 of food. Hahaha!!
Bye le papillion...
If I blogged about you earlier maybe you won't be gone now...
Me! I keep asking Mike to take more photos coz on the camera they look ugly, but I publish them all coz I can photoshop pure magic. Ha!
Our seafood soup. Crazily nice!
Mike's pasta
Believe it or not, this is my passport photo! I took it myself and photoshopped it
Just so you now know, you are allowed to bleach your hair, wear coloured contacts, and crazily thick make-up in your IC photo. No problem.
Ta! Comments allowed, or disallowed, according to my mood after I read through them tomorrow morning.

4th of July Weekend
This weekend has been so tiring for me. I worked from 5AM - 10AM on 4th of July, spent the whole night hanging out, worked this morning 7 - 12 and again 4 - 9! It's killer but I know when I get that paycheck it's gonna be worth it! Plus we're switching to AT&T this month and I need money for my iPhone! Despite me telling myself I have to stop spending, I went to MAC!
Fix+ & Plush Lash in Plushblack
I really wanted to try out the Fix because my skin has been so dry lately, and it really works! I prefer to put it on before I put on my make up though because I noticed my forehead looks super shiny if I spray it on after. It was cheaper than I thought, I'm not sure why I thought it was gonna be $20+ but it's only $16. And since I am such a mascara addict I haaad to try the Plush Lash after reading Karen's blog on lashes! I swear her blog is always being updated I can ever keep up!
I bought a bunch of stuff a couple weeks ago off of eBay so I always check my mail and I got this in today!
I am ridiculously near sighted so I have to wear contacts/glasses everyday or I can't see a thing so of course I just HAD to have this. lol It was only $6.55! I'm telling you I'm a shopaholic like no other. My husband is gonna bug out when he comes back haha!
Well I really need to catch up on my sleep because this morning everyone said I looked so dead! My coworkers gave me coffee and one of them even bought me an energy drink after he went out to lunch, I didn't even ask them for anything!
P.S. Hard Candy is having a 50% off EVERYTHING sale! I've never used their stuff before, but I wanted to try out their eyeshadow palette. It doesn't look that big, but hey it's only $11.
