Leo's Crib

#FriendshipFridays pt. 2
My friend Leo hosted a get together because his basement was finally finished. He had it renovated or something. Yes, we had some drinks. Yes, we were careful. Drink smart friends! This was on June 21!


Peck's Birthday

#FriendshipFridays
The last week of May it was one of my friend, John's, birthday. My friend hosted his birthday party at her house. It was accompanied by great people, great drinks and great vibes. The best of parties. Here are some of the photos I have from that wild night. (Finally you guys get to see them eh?)



Hope you enjoyed this John.

What's the haps?

Just a little update on what's been happening with me since I have gone MIA'ing for quite a long time. I can't promise you that this won't be happening frequently because I am still in school, I'm volunteering and working. Why did I think I can juggle all of that on top of friends and family? Who knows why. Although I am getting by and I'm pushing myself everyday to become better. I'm pushing myself to actually do my homework and study.
I started working out again. Going to the gym. I do cardio and weights because when you mix those two together you have an even faster rate of burning fat. So far I've been good with it. I never miss a workout unless its a rest day, all the muscles in my body are so sore, but it's the type of good sore if you know what I mean. What motivates me to work out is kind of really weird, I do it for the burn and feeling sore the next day, I don't know why.
Lately I have been trying to get back into shows. This all happened when I finished X-Men: Days of Future Past(great movie, kinda preferred X-Men: First Class though). The show that I'm currently watching and controlling myself not to binge watch is... GAME OF THRONES! I finally caved in at the appropriate time because season 4? I believe is next and each episode is literally about shy of an hour. The only sad thing about this is I haven't read the books and I know I should read the books. I'll probably get the books after I'm done catching up because apparently the book is more vivid(that's a shocker *sarcasm). There are a lot of new shows/old shows and movies I want to catch up on this summer!
I'll probably be MIA'ing until July? Only because the last week of June is going to be a killer for me since I have a final and a paper due during that week, but after that I'm hoping to become more active AGAIN!
Yeah. Anyways I'll catch you lovelies around~
(P.S I wanna hear what you guys have been up to!!)

Papa's Day

I feel like I don't give enough credit to the most hard working man I know, my daddy. Although I barely get to see him because he's working two jobs just to support us. He's freaking amazing even though we fight the most about the outrageous stupidest thing ever. I know he'll probably never read this but that's okay. I'll probably show this to him one day.
I love you dad, thank you God for sending me this amazing man<3

Collective Haul

#Pam
HELLO LOVELIES,
Long time no blog eh? I know I apologize! Work, School and Volunteer had me swamped! Even if I wanted to blog I couldn't because I was lacking the energy! I was pretty much out every day of the week either working, going to school, at the gym/working out, or hanging out with my friends
I now have time so I decided to change up my hauls and film them!
PS THIS VIDEO IS POORLY EDITED! And yes I am using my iPad camera.

This video is really long. I think it was because I kept going off topic and saying irrelevant stuff.
By the way this haul video was supposed to be posted a long time ago, but it's here now!

Make Up Powder Fix!

Over the weekend while I was getting ready I had the greatest luck ever... because this happened.
As I was getting ready I grabbed my bronzer and it slipped from my hands and fell to the ground. It shattered and I was so devastated. At first I was thinking of leaving it like this but then I remember there is a method to fix broken powder and I just want to share with all of you lovelies who don't know this wonderful method. I found this method through a friend who saw the video from Michelle Phan! Here is the link
You will need... 
-Your broken powder
-Spoon
-Knife(I'm using a plastic palette knife)
-Piece of napkin
-Rubbing Alcohol
-Plastic wrap.

You wanna use the plastic wrap to wrap around the powder's case.
This will prevent any loose powders from spilling and will save you the hassle of cleaning up.

I decided to film for the rest of the steps!
Song: Growing Up - Fracture Design
After you have wrapped your powder around plastic get your spoon and start breaking your powder even more.
After you think you've done enough mashing, unravel the plastic.
Pour enough alcohol to the mashed up powder. Make sure you put enough.
Mix it gently with your knife(I'm using a plastic palette knife).
When you get the nice thick consistency start smoothing it out.
When you're finished cover it with a napkin.
Place in the fridge to help it harden.

Nails of the Week
Revlon 909 - Sheer Petal
china glaze - I'm Not Lion (ring fingers)

Hope you all enjoyed this post =)!
I'll post the finished results tomorrow!

~April Favourites~

Wow I totally forgot it was May already. That being said here is a late April Favourite post! I know I said I would try a few things and I did but most of them ended up on my "Miss List". (I still have to do a post on that!). For this month there were a few things that I really adored!
(side note: I'm planning to buy a new charger for my good camera therefore pictures like these won't show up in future post. Hopefully. For now please excuse the quality).


Black Tank Crop Top - $6 H&M
This top has been my go-to top whenever I go out.
It's just so comfortable and airy.
It goes with anything and it's super cute. 

Bought this in the middle of April with my brother's girlfriend.
It was a buy one get 50% off sale.
I've always been wanting to own a baseball cap and now I got one!
Since the weather is getting hotter and toques/beanies are out of the weather this hat
seemed like the best alternative!
I pretty much wear it when I can!

I have to say this was a good impulsive purchase.
It has a nice light colour to it.
It blends well and it feels really light.
I did a review on this, you can check it out here.

I did a close up pictures for the remaining last three favourites!

Anti-Fatigue Eye Roller, Fresh Essentials - Aveeno
I don't know the price, my mother just asked me if I wanted it.
She said she bought this just because.
(I wonder where I got my impulsive purchase habits from?)
This product is awesome because it really does brighten up the dark circles under my eyes.
I have a similar product by Aveeno that does the same thing however, it burns like a witch!
BUT this product doesn't do that!
It's very gentle and soothing. Not to mention cooling.

Eyebrow Wiz in Ebony - $27 Anastasia
I bought this in January and I never really paid attention to how awesome this product is until April.
Unfortunately I ran out of it so I couldn't swatch it on my hand or anything.
The colour is a nice deep brown. Almost close to black but not as harsh.
I used to use black eyebrow pencil but then my cousin persuaded me to use dark brown pencil.
Therefore I chose this because a lot of YouTube gurus rave/use this eyebrow pencil.
I really like the brush at the end since it evens out the intensity you just filled in. 
It is quite pricey and I don't see myself buying another one soon.
Although I really like the colour of it since it matches my hair.
I started to use this a lot in the month of April, especially when I didn't really need to wear it.
I just loved using it!

Black Ankle Strap Wedges - $26 H&M
I absolutely adore these wedges.
Whenever I get a chance to wear them, I'll strap these lovelies on my feet.
They're so comfortable and much more stable than my Zara heels.
My ankle doesn't give way whenever I'm running in them or fiddling my feet around.
They pretty much go with any outfits I wear.

That's all for my April Favourites!
Hopefully I'll have more during May!
Let me know which items you thought were interesting :)!

Crimson Water

A really short free write. When I mean free write I mean lots of grammatical errors and head tilts because of "WTF" moments(I think, who knows what goes on in my head). Here goes nothing. Oh and enjoy.

I looked at the slender tall male. His hair was a perfect mess and his green eyes were stunning as always. His lips wore a nice pink colour and his dimples were definitely the icing on the cake. This always happens. Whenever he is nearby I immediately stop everything that I'm doing just so I can take in his remarkable looks. Every detail I memorized. You can ask me anything about him and I'll be able to answer it without hesitation. An example was when my friend asked me how many times does he blink when he gets nervous, I immediately answered at least five times. My friend didn't believe me so we tested it. He blinked five times. What did we do to make him nervous? That's a secret. I saw his right hand twisting open a bottle of water. The way his fingers moved as he opened his bottle looked as if it was a potter making the final touches on his clay. He was very gentle towards the water bottle which I found was incredibly peculiar and amazing. I don't think I remember when I got this infatuated with him. Maybe it was when I saw him first ran his fingers through his hair that one time in Math class or was it when he turned around to pass me the class hand outs in English? I really can't remember but in both of those times he was smiling. A smile that I've never seen somebody wore. It was as if it was Christmas morning for him. No maybe not, maybe it is like he finally got what he wished for? Yeah, I think that's it.
I saw the same blonde haired boy as usual. This guy is not really interesting. The only reason why I pay attention to him is because whenever I manage to see the green eyed male the blonde boy is around seventy-five percent of the time. The remaining twenty-five percent is my favourite. The green eyed male was always alone and it made me very happy to know that I can stare at him without anyone distracting him. I guess it's kind of weird that I'm always referring him to the green eyed male. I only say that to calm myself down because his name is too special. I feel like if I call him by his name I will tarnish it. Everything about him is special. However it'll be confusing if I don't at least say his name once. His name is ...

OKAY LOL. I don't know where any of that came from. Maybe it was because I have been watching anime recently. Lately I've been looking for shoujo anime(rom-coms) and I guess this is where it comes from? I don't know I think my free write was creepy and 100% stalkerish.
THIS WAS ALL MADE UP BTW LOL. I wanted to give them blue and green hair but I wanted to keep it a bit realistic so. ANYWAYS YA HOPE YOU GUYS LIKED THIS OR UH THOUGHT THIS WAS NICE, I DON'T REALLY KNOW. THANKS :$.
