Spring Break


The only good thing about Spring Break being over; is that Summer vacation gets closer. My vacation seemed very long haha, but I had so much fun each day. Everyday is so entertaining with my family, especially with my siblings. Spent my time eating all kinds of food, taking my brother to his t-ball games/practices, obsessing over twilight movie and reading my book. I was very strict on my spending and didn't but much (no clothes!).

John worked practically all week so I saw him first thing in the morning (he sleeps over with me when I visit) until he goes to work then late at night when he's done. It's amazing how he still makes me laugh my ass off and understands my crazy ways.

I left my camera USB at home :'( *freaks out* so I can't upload the pics and videos I planned on editing to make a 'spring break' video. GAHHHH! And my laptop doesn't have the right port for my memory card. So oh wellllll...

I'm so obsessed (so is my mom and sister) over the Twilight Saga. I have like 2 posters of Edward lol and like watch everything Twilight on youtube. I love New Moon<3.>
*New video posted: Haul: MAC, China Glaze, and other goodies. (yay for zebra nails)!

Videos to Edit + HW to do :/

Hey guys hope you had a nice weekend. I sure did! I notice that when I'm home I'm constantly eating lol. Everyone (including my family and my bf's family) love to make me food when I'm home :). The food here at school is okay, but it gets tiring.

Anyways haven't posted any videos for a few days. Gonna edit some soon, I have three I think that I've recorded but haven't edited. Oh yeah! And I got tagged by DefineRoxanne to do a '6 products I can't live w/o.' So I'm excited to do that one.

I've got a paper to write and a survey to create for tomorrow. So I want to get that out of the way first. What a Monday huh? Oh well only 4 more days 'til I go back home hehe for spring break YAY! =]

Rimmel Glam'Eyes Mascara

MY REVIEW So I bought this new mascara from Longs Drugs. It's the cutest thing. Obviously the packaging is pink and black with like fishnet print. And the best part is that crown, hehe! The bristles are very precise (very similar to sephora atomic volume) the different sized bristles help grasp and pull your lashes. The application is okay, the straight shape makes it kind of hard to get into the middle of your lashes. I find it better than the lash blast, which tends to jump clump and not separate as well. As for lasting effects, I was so surprised that my lashes still held it's shape. And I noticed that the length was still present. The length is amazing! It made my lashes look so much longer and you could see my individual lashes (not clumps). So it's true to what it says about lengthening your lashes.

"Ultra Volume, high definition mascara" is what it says on the packaging.
And I bought 001 Black.
4.5/5 Rating; Doesn't thicken well, but elongates and doesn't clump =].

Hey so I posted up my dorm room tour [part1&2] which I recorded last week. I made tons of annotations with organization tips, design tips, and storage names so please take the time to check that out! I'm so excited that there are a few people who've been telling me they are using my videos to change up their own rooms :). Like my friend Allison, Prim, and her cousin Marz. It makes me happy, hehe.

I recorded two vids today. 1) Talking about eyeshadow palettes, depotting, making it your own. 2) Mini drug store and MAC haul.

I realized how much work making a make-up tutorial is! So I'm just gonna put the look and tutorial on here. And if anyone requests it then I'll make a video. Oh and yeah! I painted my nails gray with pink polka dots.. laaav it!
