Coach Outlet day!!

This weekend sucked... too much emotional drama, relationship drama, family drama, school work etc etc etc that everything went by in a sleepy-psychotic blur. Sadly I got nothing done... (3 essays to do!!!) so shit, life sucks. So let's flashback to last weekend, which was diviiiine :D....



Naturally, every pic spam must start with an outfit pic!! lol This is my new LipService top I bought from Mitsu @ http://www.universal-doll.com I am in looooove!!! (though it kinda gives me pregger belly mrrrr.




Ahhh it's so close you can see all my flawsss D: Heather zoomed too muchhhh


There it is!!! :D


That's me and Heather!! In the bathroom...very glamorous, yes?





An outfit I tried on in Papaya. Kinda regret not buying it... at least the shorts are on the website BUT THE SHIRT ISN'T AHHHH. :[ I'm too lazy to drive back out there, lol.





My purchases!!



This was what was collectively bought. My stuff is top right; pink wallet and strawberry change purse thingie (not really quite sure what it is, lol! it was just cute!) I've wanted that wallet since it first came out...around valentine's day (of course) buuutt I already have a Coach wallet and i was hesitant to lay down $200 for another one.... so I waited. It was gone from the retail store but still on the website. Still...couldn't buy it. At the outlet...IT WAS JUUST MEANT TO BE!!!! There it was!!! for cheaper AND i got a 30% discount from store people... :D of course I caved and bought it. $91 instead of almost $200. yayyy.

april showers

It's one of those muggy, humid, thuderstorming-on-and-off spring days. Makes my internet slow :[ I hope that it doesn't go out while I'm trying to update here and print out readings for school D:

This weekend my girlfriend was here visiting :] She lives in PA, so we usually only get to see each other once a month because a) gas is expensive and b) she works the weekends and c) we're both busy with schoolwork during the school year. But she's on her last week of school for the semester, lucky her! I have three more weeks.

Anyway, we spent the weekend not doing much lol. We shopped at two different malls (involving a trip to the new Coach outlet around here!!), watched Burlesque, Beetlejuice, Adam, uhh...Sukiyaki Western Django (again, lol) and ate lots of candy!!! You can see what our two major past times are: spending money and watching movies xD I'll include pics from this weekend in another post.

I need to catch up a little first...



I finally found an OPI Shatter!! yayayaya. I got the Essie on sale...buy one get TWO free (my girlfriend got the third one), and when in Ulta I accidentally stumbled upon the Urban Decay Naked Palette!!! YAYAYAYAYA. I went in to buy nailpolish, found that, ditched my planned buys and bought that lololol. soooo worth it though. I'm happy to finally have it :D





Sooo...story behind this... I pulled an allnighter...Tuesday going into Wednesday, writng an essay about a fucking Melville book (I do not like Melville) and uh, I actually finished around 3am, but I had to get up for work at 5:30am, so I figured I'd prolly feel like worse shit if I tried to sleep and had to wake up again so fast... so instead I dressed up for school which I'd have that evening. Lesson learned: dont ever pull allnighters. all day I felt like I was on drugs and couldn't focus and almost fell asleep driving (I couldnt remember getting to school!!!) It was bad...and I'd never drank so much coffee in one day, sheesh. Buy yeah... curled my hair in the morning and as you can see it was gone by 3pm when I changed for school. rawrrrr. so mad. but I needed the practice cos i can't curl hair lol.

better go focus on some reading and hw, since I just spent myself broke this weekend lol.

starting to feel like spring

It's 85 degrees F outside today!! My bedroom window's open and it feels wonderful :] Hard to believe it was 40 and rainy and windy a few days ago.

Two of my classes are canceled Tues and one on Thurs. It's nice to be able to sleep in and have more time to work when so much is due ;3;

Home life is really hectic and surreal right now. I can't believe these things happen and I wish people would get their shit together because selfishly, I refuse to change my life. ugh.

My blog entries are pretty unexciting. Same work and school, lol. I have no life!!! it's sad :[ I spent all weekend at the library doing homework, but at least I dressed up for it, hahaha.









ps: yes, I need to cut my bangs. Yes, my eyebrows are furry monsters that need to be tamed. I'm workin' on it lol

fighting spirit!!

Yesterday I shopped when I shouldn’t have, but I guess that’s the story of every girl’s life, right? As I said yesterday I had planned on going to the mall after getting school work done…. I ate a yummy lunch at panera, picked up some makeup for my mom and was disappointed the MAC store was out of the Quite Cute lipstick I wanted :[ But I did accidentally find the cutest swimsuit ever while on my way to the bathroom:



I shouldn’t have spent the money, but I knew I’d regret it, really, really regret it. Plus now I finally have a swim suit! I can check if off of my summer gets list. Then meandering through Icing I found this super cute beret!



I’ve been so in love with hats as the days go by and keep telling myself I need more… This was only two dollars on sale so naturally I’d be a fool to say no. Weeks ago I saw something like this in Papaya, but passed it up. In the end, it kinda found its way back to me? XD

I’ll end this with outfits from the last few days.

back in gyaru form!

I think I got that gyaru spark back in me, at least for the last week and even continuing today :) Even though it's raining and the weather sucks. Figures, right? speaking of gyaru, I ordered a one-piece from yumetenbo! My first 'actual' gal brand (if you can call it a brand, lol) I bought the black. :) I saw it online and wasn't sure, but I kept thinking of coordinate ideas in my head. I knew if I didnt get it I might regret it. Plus, in some weird train of thought, 'I'm helping Japan's economy'? XD any excuse to shop, ya? I have to head out to school, so I don't really have time to update about much. So here are my recent 'gal renewal' outfits :]

where is my warm weather

I can't even begin to describe the boringness that is my life. All I do is school work, seriously. It's work, school, work, school, work, school, school. It's been really stressful, my first semester at a four year university. It's harder than what I've been used to, and it's reflecting in my grades. I'm only been getting Bs and it's killing me. I need to figure this stuff out so I can have a good gpa. However, there is the other side of me that is struggling to not kill myself so much over my grades. What will good grades get me once I'm out of school? I read once in a magazine that good grades won't matter in the real world, only the hardwork, presistance, and who you suck up to. Which, I can totally understand that. But right now good grades are for getting money for school. Why is it so expensive? Why is it so difficult to get money? Why can't I be less lazy? So many questions, so little answers.




I get less time to dress up for school. I can count the number of times I've worn heels to school on my fingers! Shocking, I was so into gyaru and dressing up last semester, but all this hard work has made it difficult for me to enjoy that aspect of my life. Then when I do dress up, I realize how much I've missed being able to go crazy with makeup, with clothes, with having fun in what I wear.

I can't wait for summer. Time to reorganize my life, think about what I want to go. To be able to take time off to relax, make more money. I'm thinking about taking on another part time job this summer for experience and cash. Where I work currently won't be able to give me full time status, and I want to try something new. I've always wanted to work in a clothing store or bookstore, and summer is the best time to do it. Since everyone always talks about retail sucking, if the second job sucks I'm quitting at the end of summer anyway. We will see, I haven't had the chance to job hunt yet. Anyway, here are some outfits. Maybe more tomorrow.

undead

I have this habit of disappearing and reappearing. D:

Since school started up I haven't dedicated much time to anything else but school. I'm taking fifteen credits versus the usual twelve credits i've taken a semester. Plus they're all upper level credits too so it's more work. (& I'm trying for exceptional grades!!) Being at a new school is still very scary. I'm getting better, but there's still a lot I don't know.

One day when i arrived at school my gas light went off. I was so thankful I had my gps with me or idk WHAT would've happened because idk the sketch area around the school D:

I haven't been dressing gal anymore either. I just don't feel motivateeddddd. I've been going simpler with makeup and clothes, concerning myself with more important things (school, money, etc lol)


there really was no point to this post, so I'll leave you with an outfit;

snow day

snooooooooow day!!! Though I was crazy and went into work :p It was a chill, fool around, not busy at all day, so it was alright. My first day of classes for the spring semester were supposed to be today but the snow made that impossible.

I bring outfits...

About this outfit: Worn for my college orientation. I wanted something cute but casual. Therefore, I forwent heels and settled for flat boots. This was the day I previously spoke about in which I had an eyelash malfuntion and had to take my lashes out BEFORE MY ID PICTURE RAWRGGGG.

About this outfit: For going to the mall to meet a friend for lunch. First time wearing that cardigan I bought over winter break at h&m. I have trouble with this skirt because its a bit big and won't sit where I want it to, so I attempted to make it work by utilizing a waistbelt. I also had a malfunction that day... my contact wouldn't stop bothering me and I thought I could make it through lunch but on the way to the mall I had to stop, turn around, go home, take my contacts out and wear glasses THUS ruining my makeup. BAWWW

also note my new hair :] btw dying hair dark red = WASHES OUT SO MUCH. every wash the color runs :[

About this outfit: worn to meet up with my creative writing group. I wanted to wear red and somehow made it work. It was also 40 degrees F that day...pretty warm compared to the usual weather so I figured it'd be okay not to wear socks. I dont like wearing much makeup on my bottom lash because it causes so much trouble with my contacts.... so I smeared some brown eyeshadow and masacara on and hopefully it worked :]

outfit update from dec-jan

about this outfit: those cute glasses were 2 bucks at Claires *_* I loove them. Having been a glasses wearer for most of my life and thus hating them...its a suprise lol. The cute cardigan with ruffles was purchases at Charlotte Russe for 5 bucks (day before I shopped after xmas sales *_*) Fake uggs were new, and THERES MY NEW COACH BAG <333 since i cannot afford Chanel at this point, I made the best of my obssession with that black x white Coach bag, lol.






about this outfit: ahhh blurry first photo. first time i got to wear that shirt. I bought it at h&m and looove it. I have a thing for oversized tops (esp sweaters). as always, switching up my makeup style. I dont have bottom lashes atm and gotta figure something out lol. also, i fail at wearing an usamimi.






about this outfit: the sweater was a christmas gift. I wish I had black leggings/jeggings for this, but had to make due with blue denim. actually, that day I went and bought black jeggings for the future :]

rising from the dead

Finally I kicked my ass to update!! ahhh I'm so bad at stuff like this. It's exactly how my livejournal died >_>

I have lots of outfit shots to update with from christmas/birthday/new years week. (ages ago, huh?) my life since then has been stressful and uneventful. stressful because I'm starting a new college at the end of January and I've been running around like a chicken with its head cut off to get everything submitted.

here's a bad story relating to college: orientation day (mandatory) I dress all nice, did my makeup...then EYELASH MALFUNCTION AHHHH. i was so upset :[ this happened even before I got my ID pic. so I had to take my eyelashes off and tough it out. thankfully people are too polite to make any comments about why my eyeliner is missing in places....

that aside, I'm both excited and nervous to start at a new school. It's big, very big, and further away than my community college I attended is. I'm still working out my schedule because tranfers are like freshmen, in that we get last pick of classes. UGHHH.

outside of school stress, I've spent my days working and working. on winter break there really isn't much to do besides work and be lazy. It's terribly cold outside, so I'm not tempted to go out. I purchased Fallout 3 and have been playing that.

basically I have not been very gal this month, but when there's nothing to really do I don't have reason to put on makeup and hot clothes. But I will leave you all with a coordinate back from December that I wore to a work party.

huu. i wish i knew a better way to reside my picturess. i fail at blogging baby >[ I hadn't worn that shirt in a while and I think that's how the outfit was built. I tried to combine sexy and cute with the black and the pink and white. Then I attempted to curl my hair to which I discovered that it definitly takes me longer than 45 mins to do (note to self) and realized I was running late. It's worse that I fail at curling hair. I started with using a straightener, gave up, then used a curling iron. Since i was late and hadn't finish, I put the unfinished half in a very 80s pony tail style, curled that super fast and voila.

It's funny that the side I rush on looks a million times better than the other side (the shit, deflated, fail side). as you can see in that first face shot. I think the pony tail made the one side look better. my hair is very thin and there's not a lot, so perhaps my problem is that I don't have thick enough hair/not enough hair to give me the volume I desire.

I've been wanting extensions, but since I dyed my hair recently I'm gonna have to hold out.

night out

I wish I knew a way to resize my images so they kept the same sharp quality to them as in the original size. ahhh, such a blogging newbie help!!!

I don't really like those lashes for gal...but I don't just wanna toss'em out. So I gotta us'em up. I didn't wear bottom lashes either and just put mascara on my bottom lashes. I really want new bottom lashes. Recommendations???

Went out to a pub/restaurant with my friends from my creative writing class this past semester. It was fun! I usually don't make friends in a class, but I got super lucky! Especially 'cos I love writing :] We proposed to have our own writing "group" and meet each week and make "assignments" to complete. This is me being a nerd but SO MUCH FUUUUN.

I feel there is a biased againest fashionable/pretty/self-coucious girls/boys/people when it comes to their intellect. It's like the dumb blonde stereotype. For example, on the hotmail news feed there was an update about Pamela Anderson being on Playboy cover and how she penned some poetry in whatever article she had. Most people (or everyone) will be thinkng "HAHAHA. there's no WAY she could write poetry!!!" I can't speak for Pamela, but who really knows right??? Never underestimate a person's intelligence. Never assume!!! (you know that saying???)

I love writing. I write creatively everyday or every other day. I'm constantly reading a book. Currently, I'm rereading American Gods by Neil Gaiman, btw. READ THAT BOOK. or in fact, READ ANYTHING BY NEIL GAIMAN. I could probably dedicate a whole blog to books, lol. I may like fashion and dressing up, but I could live without it. because, I don't always dress up. But I CAN'T live without words...books...writing...any of that!!

I really digressed from outfit to rant/writing, but when I say I write creatively (and pretty well, I think) I wonder if people blow that off because on the surface I'm so self-councious and paticular about my appearence.

lost in a daydream

(I don't wear sneakers enough and these are sooooooooooo cute!!!!)

I think maybe I should be doing homework stuff, ahhhhhh. I have one last project for one last class but uughhhh the laziness. Worst yet because its a group project with people who don't know wtf they're doing and we also have to present to the class. ahhhhhhhhhhh. It will definitly be a day that I wish I could press the fast forward button on life.

It's gotten very cold, very fast! As soon as December hit--BAM--winter time! It's 20-30 degrees F typically now... It's been even flurrying every other day too. Granted, I imagine this cold may not compare to the cold of northern European countries (cos I know a lot of gals are from those areas...) but for here it's frigid, lol. Normally real cold doesn't come to Maryland until late January. Last winter we got blizzards all on the east coast of the US. SO MUCH SNOW!!! I was snowed in for so long I was getting cabin fever, man lol. And I missed a lot of work which sucks for my bank account :[ I hope that much snow never happens here again.

neverending outfit catch up

This never works because I just keep wearing new outfits, lol.



DO YOU SEE MY NEW CAMERA!?!?!? Hopefully I will make a post about it :] It's an Olympus PEN e-PL1 etc etc. I'd seen a lot of gal with it and loved the quality and subsequently saved up for it!

Also, those lovely shoes I'm wearing broke that day ;_; At least it occured when I was leaving campus for the day.




Ahhhh scary face D:


I am basically done for the semester. I have a project due next Monday, but it's nothing to cry about. Hopefully I will blog more. Hopefully, I will read that stack of books I have. Hopefully, I will watch all the shows I need to. Hopefully I will do a lot of things, lol. I'm rereading American Gods (By Neil Gaiman) now. I can't get over how amazing that book us. jdaskloooove

In other news my laptop got infected with that system file malware D: I have a friend who's going to look at it tomorrow so hopefully she'll know how to fix it. Now I'm using my dad's laptop.... first he yelled and lectured me, then he storms into my room and sits his laptop on my bed and walks out. WTF. regardless, I WANT MY STUFFFF. Thankfully I have an external harddrive to save all my writing on. PHEW
