Karma

So today I worked offsite at a festival in my town. My town lays right next to a bay so we get a lot of the cold wind coming from it. Well all the vendors at the festival left their tents up over night and one lady nearby my tent had all of her display blown over and her tent pushed about 2 feet forward and her products strewn everywhere. I felt really bad for her and since my tent was already up and ready to go (Thanks to some amazing people next to me selling shaved ice. The man working there helped me set up my tent AND gave me some weights to anchor the tent down. Yesterday we had to take down our tent because it almost blew over.) I decided to help pick up her things so she wouldn't have to come here and see it like this. So I started to pick up her things off the ground and a couple other ladies helped me too but they gave up. I kept going until the woman and her assistant got there and then I helped them finish up their tent and display. It may be selfish of me to say this but it makes me really happy to help other people. I have been a really awful person to others in my life and it haunts me every single day. There's a picture on tumblr that describes what happens to me often.

I have picked on people who have had no reason to be picked on, said horrible things without thinking, and just all around been an awful person my entire life. I keep trying to do good for others but I fail and mess up and it's just a horrible horrible ordeal for me to replay all of these events over in my head. I'm trying to make up for all of the horrible things I've ever done to people. I don't really know how to though, and sometimes it keeps me up at night because I know these people probably hate me even if they act friendly towards me. I don't deserve it at all. I really don't even have any friends, most of the people on my facebook 'friendslist' probably don't think of me as a friend to be honest, and I wouldn't blame them. I was never a good person in high school. I'm not even that good of a friend now. I'm just trying so hard to be nice to others now but sometimes I feel like I shouldn't be nice just because I'm doing it for a very selfish reason.

Well, back to the story. The woman who I helped set up her tent gave me a free cup of fudge! It is watermelon flavored and really yummy, if not deadly sweet!

Haha. She was so nice and grateful for the help, I felt happy just helping her fix her tent up, but I'm so grateful for the gift as well. Haha, I basically had nothing but liquid sugar and water all day. I had to pee SO BAD but I was the only one at my booth. The nice guy I mentioned earlier watched my tent for me though. I'm so happy to be blessed by other people being so nice to me. I honestly don't deserve it at all. But, the more good things I do, I hope to repay all the people I've been a jerk to who never deserved it.

back to school, ring the bell

School is only in a few weeks! Oh my god I am so nervous.

My schedule is Hip Hop Dance three times a week, Theory of Acting class twice a week, Criminal Justice, Yoga and Latin once a week.

I'm really nervous. I need to get my life together if I want to get into my dream school! I need a Yoga mat too, and dance shoes. I'll be studying a lot, that's for sure. The best thing about school though is that my dad leaves to teach tennis and I have the house to myself to take pictures for chictopia! C:

What are you taking next semester?  How do you feel you'll do?

Hey there, I'm alive!

I have recently gotten a tumblr so I've kinda been cheating on this blog. I also have been redditing too. I knew I was in love with reddit the first time I clicked on it. They were talking about Dunkaroos. I have remembered this snack fondly from my childhood, but I seem to be the only person who remembers them. It's driven me insane, but there it was, a topic on reddit talking about Dunkaroos. It had my heart from that moment. It's also a very nice news source, and has lots of subtopics. If you've never been there, check it out now: reddit.com

I also have been trying to exercise a lot more! My dad moved the treadmill into my brothers old room so it's much nicer than starting it up downstairs and having your parents watch you work out hahaha. But yeah! There's also some kind of cardio buster thing my mom bought and never used so I use that to exercise my arms. I want to see if I can get a thigh gap! I think when my legs slim down I will have one, and that will be awesome. Just eating healthier in general makes me happy. Today I had a ham sandwich on oatnut bread, with lettuce, mustard, artichoke and garlic tapenade, pickles, tomato, pepper and a bit of salt. Strawberries and tater tots on the side.

Which reminds me, I made a new smoothie the other day! I made it for a little girl who came in asking for a smoothie we didn't have, and it's called Crazy Berry! I'll have to dedicate a post to all the smoothies I've created. I love making up new recipes, you can make so many different flavors! But anyways, I took home some of that smoothie and made it into popsicles. It was so yummy this morning as a treat!

I have one item for my giveaway prize pack! I'm excited for when I reach 5k views. I bet it would help a bit if I posted more...

I am now even more in love with Korean pop group miss A! They just recently released the video for their newest single Good-bye Baby and I love it so much!
 
I ordered their CD on ebay and it comes with a poster on the girls with their outfits from the music video.

I suppose that's all for now. I'm gonna go take my Netflixs disc down to the mailbox and then run for a bit. ;-; Sucks Netflix prices are going up, but they are forced to do it to deal with the movie companies raising their prices to stream and such.

100!

I have been putting off this post for so long just because I wanted it to be special, but I realized 100 is just a number I have to pass. So here's my post:

I just want to watch my few followers! You are wonderful and I am glad you enjoy my blog enough to follow it. And thanks to everyone who just stops by. It makes me smile reading my stats and seeing people stop by.

I am hoping to still do a giveaway at 5000 pageviews. I need to think of something nice to giveaway. Maybe a Coastal Scents palette? Or an Aldo/Jamba Juice giftcard? If you have any suggestions, let me know.

As for my life, I'm just hoping to have an amazing summer. I've been really amping up my diet by drinking water and eating lots of fruit and veggies. Work is always fun too. I've been in a super creative mood lately so I've been making up new smoothie recipes too. :P

This may be horrible of me to say, but I really want to get a ton of followers so I can get free things from wholesale-dress.net. Hahaha, it says if your blog gets 500 followers it will consider sponsoring you. I have been making a lot of outfits lately but I can't take pictures during the summer of all things because of my Dad being home and he is so nosy. Oh well! I actually did a photoshoot a few days ago with one outfit, I hope the pictures come out soon. :)

Here's to the rest of our lives!

romwe.com ripping off Kate Nash?

I was browsing the site when I came upon this:

 


I can spot Kate's logo when I see it.



I dropped off the link on Kate blog, My Ignorant Youth, and we'll see what happens from here.
Makes you wonder what else they've taken for shirt prints.


EDIT*

While messing around on polyvore, I found this pair of designer platforms.




And I immediately remembered these:



I know it's not the first time this has happened in the fashion industry, but I think it's funny how I found two copies without even looking for them.

When I reach 5000 pageviews, I will do a giveaway.

I really want to do a giveaway, I don't care if I barely have any followers.

we have to go back



Today I did some island themed makeup. I fell in love with a minty teal shade on my coastal scents palette that someone at work complimented on, saying it was like mermaid makeup. So I went with the ocean them and made it island/Caribbean like. I hope you like it!



Products used:
Urban Decay Primer Potion
Coastal Scents 88 Original Palette (Think of it like battleship, horizontal as letters A-K, and vertical numbers 1-8)
- A1(White), E1(Minty Teal), D5(Dark Green Blue), E8(Deep Blue), B2(Yellow), K5(Bronze), C5 (Green)
Maybelline Colossal Volum Express in Classic Black
Wet N Wild Lipstick in 511B
e.l.f. Mineral Blush in Peachy
Flirt! Pressed Powder in China Doll Warm
Benefit You Rebel SPF 15 Tinted Moisturizer


Used a foundation brush to apply the tinted moisturizer then a wet sponge applicator for the powder. After putting on the primer, I used an angled brush to pat B2 in the inner corners of my eyes, then swiped it beneath my brow bone as well. A bit of A1 was added at the brow to tone down the yellow. I blended E1 with that and spread it all across my lid and a bit up over my crease.Then I used a precision brush and added D5 to my crease and then curved it in a sideways v shape to my upper lash line. I blended C5 over that to get a greenish tint. Then I wet my precision brush and added K5 under neath my lower lash line. I then took my angled brush and stuck on E8 at the outer corners of my eyes. I added on the mascara to my lower and top lashes, then used a lip brush to apply the lipstick. Just a very tiny bit of blush and voila!




Here's more pictures:

fuck you google

gdi why did this get brought up to the top. :|

Almost lost my whole blog because of fucking google making everything need to be attached to a google account. I already lost my youtube account because I can't get into it. I'm just sick and fucking miserable and he's happy and he doesn't care at all. I hate it I'm either bawling or empty or brazenly stupid and egotistical and just stupid stupid stupid. My parents are deciding to be actual parents now and make me make my bed and keep everything off the floor and its fucking hilarious. All I want to do is off myself be to fucking rid of them. I fucking want boyfriends all the time so I have a reason not to kill myself. That's really it. Because without someone like that I'm just a waste. Money space air time. They make life more bearable and I finally found one guy who treated me wonderfully but he had to go and just stop liking me. How do you stop liking someone that fast. I could tell for weeks though so I guess it wasn't fast. But it was just pathetic/ridiculous how much he wanted me in the beginning so my ego has just been crushed to bits. I like how I'm more heartbroken over a guy I dated for a month than for two years. Just thinking back on all the little things. I should've went over to clean up his uncles house. I should've let him buy me the fucking Diana camera. I shouldn't have got drunk and told him I loved him then kept going with it til I did. I shouldn't have been myself basically cause that's when he stopped liking me. It'd be a lot better to be someone else anyways, I'm not that great. I don't even know who the fuck I am, such a deceiving little miserable fuck. I really just want him back. What the fuck did you mean by those songs? Do you want me back or not? Are you sad or not? I can't even trust you cause you made all these stupid little white lies over dumb ass shit. Fuck you, fuck third eye blind, fuck me. Just please fuck me I'm fucked fucked fucked.

you're a salty water ocean wave

 

I've had this song on repeat for a while. Gwen Stefani has been one of my idols since Tragic Kingdom. I adore her.

I went to audition for a film today! It's a short comedy, and I am very excited for learning whether or not I got the part. The character I auditioned for is named Lydia. After my audition I spent a little bit of time in Berkeley. It is so hot out, so I came home in the hopes of getting my friend to go to the beach with me, but she hasn't even returned my text yet.  :C

Coming close to my 100th post! I wish I had more watchers. I want to do a giveaway when I reach about 50 or 100.

DJearworm is a hero

Each mix gets better. This guy has amazing talent at mixing.
I want to dance to him live SO BAD.

He just released his new summer concert mix, Party On The Floor today. It makes me want to dance like mad. Enjoy!




My favorite mixes from DJEarworm:

Free At Night


Nelly's voice just hypnotizes me, and I love the feel of the mix.

Like, OMG Baby


His other summer concert mix. From Ke$ha's commanding voice in the beginning, it just freaking RULES AGH.

No More Gas


One of his earliest mixes. I can't even talk about these things anymore, you just have to listen for yourself.

Beautiful Mashup


Here's to Sean's speedy recovery from his crash last month. <3

Pink Friday



First makeup post eee.
So I based this off of Keiko Lynns portrayal of a makeup look Adele featured in a magazine. But I wanted to go a bit more feminine and use the pink colors from my new Coastal Scents palette.

Products used:
Urban Decay Primer Potion
Coastal Scents 88 Original Palette (Think of it like battleship, horizontal as letters A-K, and vertical numbers 1-8)
- A1(white), A4(soft beige), G2(princess pink), G7(fuschia), H6(rusty brown), K5(bronze)
Hot Topic Eyeliner in White
Maybelline Colossal Volum Express in Classic Black
Sally Girl Lipstick, 388363


So I patted on the primer first, then dusted the A4 color all over my lid and brow bone. I took G2 and formed the trapezoid shape from about the middle of my eye to a little over the outer edge of my eye. I blended on a tiny bit of G7 from my lashes to about where my crease is to intensify the pink, since the color was too soft on its own.
I further added depth to the color by patting on the H6 in the very outer corner of my eye. Then a little A1 in the inner corners of my eyes and on my brow bones. I lined my waterline with the white liner and then put on the mascara to see if I needed liner or not. I decided to just warm up the pink by adding K5 to the inner side of my lids.
Then I curled my lashes and put on the lipstick. I didn't want a nude color, but just something to enhance my own lip color. I love the Sally's lipsticks. They are really cheap but they feel so nice on your lips.





Sorry for the shitty quality pictures, my camera was just not picking up any color or the pics were blurry. :I
I'll try and fix it later.
I hope you like the look!

Cosplay Agenda

Now that Fanime is over it's time to think of new costumes for next year. lol

So far I have ordered a cosplay for Sawako from Kimi Ni Todoke, which should be coming soon in the mail.

I am also hoping to do Utena finally, since this year was a bust. And I also want to do Juri from Yu Yu Hakusho. I remember an old friend (who I happened to see at Fanime, didn't talk to her though as I was at a gathering) and I used to be really into this show, and we wanted to cosplay the two Demon Tournament announcers. I would like to do either girl, but Juri's costume is so much more fun.


Also another character I would like to do is Kanae from 5 Centimeters Per Second. I have never seen the movie but our hair is similar and it would be a fun photoshoot for the fountains at Fanime.
I just watched the movie last night. ;__________;



Okay enough nerdiness.
