Yay! 10th post ^_^ I bought two Hard Candy lip glosses the other day. I'll post them up tomorrow and do a review with pictures.

@_@ OMGosh. So I'm just really obsessed with getting rid of my acne ): I'm so desperate right now that I'm planning to do a homemade mask almost every night. I made a chart to sum it all up. =)


Credits to: foodsubs.com, Disney, celebrations.com, tuxpaint.org, curlycutie.com, celebritiesforhealth.com and St. Ives for the pictures.

Eep! The quality sucks T_T;; but I hope it isn't that bad. Yeah, I gotta stay dedicated for this to work ><

I'll post up the recipes that I used for each mask and I'll do a mini-journal thingy with pictures. I'll just use the pictures I took for the Bio-Oil and do a massive update talking about what worked and what didn't then. Which should be in two weeks. Or maybe y'know what, I'll just take pictures now and update seperately =)


In other news, the playoff teams that I've been following for the past week and a half (numbers correspond with the placing of the team name) :

LA Lakers vs Utah Jazz: 1-0
Vancouver Canucks vs St. Louis Blues: 3-0
New Orleans Hornets vs Denver Nuggets: 0-1

I'm rooting for LA (pretty obvious. Kobe-time and Trevor Ariza!), Vancouver (I'm a Vancouverite :3) and New Orleans (CP3 baby!!).

I was logged on this MMORPG that I play and I sent a message on guild chat. This guy that I really-really-really-absolutely-so-much-unbelievably-huge-amount-really like was on but he didn't reply the first time I said something so I thought he wasn't there. Thinking that he was asleep, I started typing out a snippet of my feelings:

"ne...
i could have booked my ticket on the 24th of june
but i kept it at the 3rd of july cause
i wanted some time to chill with you after school ends"

(or something like that)

and he said

"you don't have to postpone your trip for me
i didn't ask you to do that"

Funny thing is that some hours before that...around 5 or something before I took a nap, I was thinking that he would say that. Then I started having imaginary conversations that go like so:

"hey look, i gotta go. i have tutor"
"tutor? for what?"
"chem and bio 12"
"oh. why dont you just ask me?"
"well, i'm somewhat of a visual learner so i need someone to show me how things work and stuff"
"i could show you. why didn't you just ask me?"
"it's too far for both of us"
"does your tutor go to your place or do you go to his or do you meet somewhere?"
"oh, we meet somewhere"
"... where?"
"vancouver"
"then how is it any different from asking me?"
"i dont know. anyway, i gotta head out. i'm going to be late"
"fine. whatever"

Then he'd get mad and then we'd fight then I'd end up telling him that I think that he doesn't want to see me. Then all this drama and whatnot. Nonetheless, it's not like it will happen. Anyway, I made myself promise myself to never ask him to hang out anymore.

Moving on, after he told me that, I started crying and crying and it just really hurt. Then later on, he called me and I told him how when I go back to the Philippines, I wanted to get a nose job and reduce some fat in some areas. After 5 minutes or so of allowing him to think about it, he said that it was fine. I'm not sure if he said that because he actually thinks that it's okay or because he doesn't want to stop me from doing something that I want to do. Either way, I felt offended because now I think that he thinks I'm ugly. BAHHHH.

I guess I understand where he's coming from since my mind changes alot. I used to think that my nose was okay but then I'm starting to think that maybe it isn't to my liking. Now I'm having second thoughts yet again. AHHHHHHH.

EDIT: After much careful consideration and thought, I decided that my nose is what makes me Filipino and that I wouldn't do anything to change it. You can hold me to that :D

Oh and the answer came to me. I'm sticking to Guy A since the probability of seeing Guy B isn't very high and he said that he was going through a phase where he wants a Vietnamese girl for a girlfriend so...yeah.

Listening to acoustic sad songs doesn't help either. It just increases the paaaaaaaaain.

It's been more than a week of having opened these babies and it's time to review them officially! I posted the picture below on soompi as a mini-review so here's my more in-depth review of GEO CK-107.



Comfort - 7/10
My EOS Gold-Blacks are definitely more comfortable than my CK-107s. These lenses are more drying and irritating to my eyes and that frustrates me because I REALLY like how they look. I haven't used any eye drops since I don't have any but maybe if I buy some, the comfort level would go up at least one level. Also, maybe I need some time getting used to these lenses since they are pretty big. x)

Enlargement - 9/10
They're biiiiiiig and I love the big-ness! I'm at 90% to getting used to seeing myself with bigger eyes. Not completely there yet but I know I'm almost there. They're so big and dolly and I just love it! My next target would be the DM-23s after maybe 8 months into these lenses.

Design - 8/10
Without flash and extreme flash, they look almost the same as the EOS Gold-Blacks but the CK-107s are darker. Waaaay darker. I really like it x) I just wish that the little flame like gradient design thing going on is more visible cause if it were, it'd look sooo cool n_n But they're black lens and we buy them for the dolly effect, not the design haha.

Overall - 8/10
I just wish that they were more comfy T_T Then they'd be better lenses for me D: Must. Get. Used. To. Them. !! Cause I just love the effect o:

So I hope that I helped someone decide whether or not they want to get these lenses or not. They're pretty good so you should anyway :D

I haven't done a formal review of my current favourite pair, EOS Gold-Black, yet so that will be my next post! Stay tuned! ^^

P.S. Sorry for the ugly skin. <_<;; I'm currently working on that :D
P.P.S. Just curled lashes and mascara for make-up @@ That's why it looks so plain ):

Okay it's been two days since my alleged "tomorrow" and here it is! I decided to omit the facetrading cause it doesn't seem all that interesting anyway. @@;

It's a white blouse with a really long collar thingy that ties into a bow! It's really really cute x) I bought it for 23$CAD online. The bad thing about it is that it's tight around the chest and shoulder area. As in..REALLY tight. I have small boobs but frick. This blouse makes it seem like I have double D's. @_@ My aunt had to move the buttons over and even then it's still too tight. The sleeves are abit short but I don't mind. I could always fold them up anyway. So here are the pictures:

I have a whole body picture to model how long it was on me. Not that long actually, just a bit past my waist. (I'm 5".5' btw. REALLY short, I know.) Don't mind the pudgy legs and the kilt. I wore it to school today and that's the standard uniform.


And then a close-up.


And just cause I'm a cam-whore, another close-up with flash!



Beauty Regimen:

Every Tuesday, I MUST do the Aspirin Mask and clean out my pores using that pore cleaner thing =) Every Thursday, I MUST do the Egg White Mask to close up my pores even more. =) Everyday, I MUST wash my face twice, tone it twice, use Bio-Oil twice, moisturize twice and use sunscreen once. Every other day, I MUST use Extra Virgin Olive Oil on my eyelashes to make them longer and thicker.

I noticed that the smoother your skin becomes, the less Bio-Oil you will need to apply. At the beginning of my Bio-Oil adventure, I used three drops and it just about covered my whole face and part of my neck. Now, three drops is too much O_O Well, smoother = less surface area compared to a bumpy and uneven complexion. Awesomeness! It's working x)


Moving on to other things; I've been looking through another online store and they're having a 50% OFF EVERYTHING SALE and I'm immediately sucked into it. They sell wigs, clothes, accessories and decorated nails! Very cute =) As much as I'm interested in the nails, I don't think I'd be allowed to wear them to my school ): I'm not finding anything that I fancy for the clothes and the accessories either. Now, as you can see, I have a short mullet going on but I'd like to have longer hair too! So I checked out their wigs catalogue and set myself on three wigs.

http://www.hime.ecrater.com/product.php?pid=3196509
Do I really need this much hair though? It seems alot but then it'd be fun to try and do fish braids on it. x) Kind of wary of the bangs though @@; I like the volume but at the same time, it looks a bit too much.
Price after deduction: 22.50$CAD

http://www.hime.ecrater.com/product.php?pid=3196185
Looks very cute and natural. I like it cause of it's length. Wary of the bangs as well ><; The volume and the way it's styled makes it look more put together than the first wig. Price after deduction: 27.50$CAD

http://www.hime.ecrater.com/product.php?pid=3196108
Looks really cute and natural as well. It's shorter though but it looks more innocent. I'm digging the side bangs but then it's straight and I've always had straight hair and since it's synthetic, I can't really curl it @@;
Price after deduction: 24.00$CAD

I could always just buy two o_o; But then if I'm going to grow my hair out, it'd be kind of a waste. Wahhh D: But I really want long hair naooo T.T Can someone help me decide? Anybody there reading my blog? ._.

"Every second you spend angry or upset is a second of happiness you can never get back." So keep smiling and be optimistic!

That is the core meaning of which I try to get across to people who are acting all sad and depressed. I wish they understand that quote and it's meaning and realize wholeheartedly that they're missing out on life; that they are not moving forward with their life by staying in the emotional state they are in. I know it's easier said than done but keep trying. Hopefully, you can learn to see the brighter side of things; and mushed together with your past experiences, you will know the border between being naive and being reasonable.


Hmm...I went pluck-happy today. I plucked my arm pits and my eyebrows x) I guess that's abit too much information for you guys, but who's reading anyway -o-; Nonetheless, tomorrow I will have to bleach my eyebrows again cause they're looking too dark. Maybe shorten the hairs abit cause I noticed with some ullzangs and J-rockers that they aren't long nor are they short as stubble. The eyebrow hairs are trimmed and mid-length. =)

Bio-Oil is doing okay. I got some pimples here and there @@ I need to use the Aspirin Mask again soon and try and dry my pimples out x) I REALLY want clear skin T_T It feels smooth and clear but the complexion is just dead ugly! D: Whhhhhhy!! Oh man, I will definitely go to Vicky Belo for treatments when I go back to the Philippines. Freaking hell, I don't care about the risks. I just want my clear skin T_T


I'll post about my facetrading adventures at Richmond today and a picture of what I bought from someone tomorrow =) But for now, I think that I should go wash my face since I'm about to go to sleep. That and I think that the pores on my eyebrows should be closed by now x)

So I finally decided to join the bandwagon and try out Bio-Oil. I'll be updating my journal weekly starting tomorrow to keep track of my progress/epic phailing.

"Bio-Oil® is a specialist skincare product that helps improve the appearance of scars, stretch marks and uneven skin tone. Its advanced formulation, which contains the breakthrough ingredient PurCellin Oil™, also makes it highly effective for numerous other skin concerns, including aging skin and dehydrated skin. " (http://www.bio-oil.com/en/uses.html)

My current skin care routine right now is as follows:

Clinique 3-step system. Lol. I forgot the exact products but I'll upload pictures tomorrow. I've been using it for 6 months now and I must say that my skin has significantly improved over-all! I get break-outs when I begin to get my period but they go away afterwards. I really like my Clinique and I hope that with the addition of Bio-Oil, my skin will become better.

I also exfoliate my face with St. Ives Apricot Scrub twice each week and use the Aspirin Mask at least once a week (or I try to). If i were more consistent with my mask, maybe results will be sped up haha.


I wore my GEO CK-107s today. My E-GCs were more comfy lulz. I just need some time getting used to them and well, I wore them for 10-12 hours so yeah =_= I guess that's why. Also, I still can't get used to the fact that my eyes look so much bigger @_@ It's crazyyyyy. But yeah, with persistent use, I will definitely get used to them! Then maybe I'll move on to Dueba DM-23 Browns and have HUUUGE eyes x)

So I gots me two guys. Both who really really like me and I really like both of them as well. It's really complicated. There's A and there's B.

A - known for almost 7 years, lives faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar, close to me, irregular chats here and there, I've liked him ALOT when I met him but then some drama happened and we never had our own time together
B - almost 3 years, lives near, close to me, talked alot the past 3 years, I really really like him but he has some temper issues and is kinda anti-social so it's hard to drag him out and see me

They don't know each other but A knows about B and some stuff that we do. I told B that A and I have been talking lots and late into the night last week and he seemed jealous. @_@

Bah! All I need is patience to see where things will go and hopefully the decision will be made for me by then.


Turns out that Guy A was NOT who I thought he was but he still seemed pretty hardcore rocker with the spiked up hair and unnatural colour highlights (very few though). My brother was nice enough to take me to the nearest Skytrain Station to my house ^_^ I just bussed and walked home =]

I got my two new pairs of circle lenses yesterday. EOS Gold-Black and GEO CK-107. I opened my EOS Gold-Black and soaked them overnight and wore them today. They look pretty good. I'm still not used to having bigger looking eyes though @_@ I need to wear my circle lenses more often.

I'll probably open the GEO CK-107 in a month or so after I get used to my EOS Gold-Blacks. =)

Here's some pictures with me wearing them and here's the link for the review that I did on this pair: http://www.soompi.com/forums/index.php?s=&showtopic=122581&view=findpost&p=12946704
