I’m back! Kinda…
We have internet! Actually we’ve had it for a while, I’ve just been very very busy. I’m so behind! I’ve got a lot of things to post and share and stuff. I have so much going on in general. I don’t even know where to start. I suppose news and such would be a good place to start. well as good as any, anyway.
What’s new with me… We’re going through a bit of a hard time here, myself and my family. There’s family drama but the biggest problem is finances, or lack of. However we’ll get by we always do. I (finally) started college!! Okay so it’s a lame community college but it’s a start. I am currently taking basic classes to get them out of the way before transferring to a more expensive school. However I’m not 100% sure where I’m going to transfer or what I’m going to major in once I get there. I’ll figure it out eventually. I’m only going part time so it’s gonna take twice as long as if i went full time. I don’t think I could handle it and a job though. I’m having a hard time keeping up with the homework as it is in fact. I wonder if they can teach me to manage my time better. I have learned one thing though, the more homework I have, the more I like coffee.
Right now I have a lot going on but I also have a lot of stuff I’d like to post here. So here’s a short-ish list of what to look forward to:
- Video Game reviews/ games I’m loving right now
- Halloween stuff (maybe)
- product reviews
- recopies I’m loving
- much more
Right now though I’m going to leave you with this cute nail tutorial from IHaveACupcake. It’s a K-pop inspired nail design using black, white, and gray nail polish. It was inspired by the k-pop group Super Junior. For more info on the tutorial it’s self see the video’s description on youtube.
Here’s my take:
It’s a little blurry sorry. I don’t know if you can tell but I didn’t follow the tutorial exactly though pretty close. The exact products for this tutorial aren’t listed and I probably wouldn’t have used any of them anyway. I tend to keep my nails done on the cheap. No $8 bottles of nail polish here. If you do it you too of course can use any products you like but if you want here’s what I used:
- Grey- Pure Ice – 541CP Kiss Me Here ($ 2)
- White – Sally Hansen Insta-Dri – 02 Whirlwind White ($3.50)
- Black – Wet-n-Wild Fastdry – 229C Ebony Hates Chris ($1.60)
- Base- Sally Hansen Continuous Treatment – Growth (got this on clearance for $3! Normally it is $6-8!)
- Top Coat – Sally Hansen Hard as nails – Strengthening top coat ($2.50)
The rhinestones and brushes I used both came off ebay. I know you can find comparable items at walmart, kmart, etc or your local craft store. They don’t have to be for your nails most rhinestones will work as well as most synthetic paintbrushes. Experiment and see what works for you. If you have any questions feel free to ask. I am by no means an expert nor do I claim to be but I will be happy to help in anyway I can.
*disclaimer*
All products were bought and paid for by me with my own money. I am by no means sponsored by any of these companies. All prices are estimates based on what I paid for them.
Anyway that’s all for now,

Music Monday!
So Jess, my best friend who also posts here…sometimes…<.< She got a new mp3 player today so we’ve been going through music. I listened to songs today I haven’t heard in a long time because I have so much music. I really like music in case you couldn’t tell. I like a lot of different types of music and even music in different languages. For example, I have music in English, French, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, and Swedish just to name a few. I have a 16 GB ZuneHD and it is almost full with mostly music.
Also we got some new nail art stamping plates from bundle monster. We got both sets the first one of 21 plates and the newer one of 25. So far I really like them. I will try to do a review on them later. I have so many product reviews to do!
I’ll get to them eventually though. I could really use a break from work anyway lol. My to-do list is about as long as my arm. I am hoping to get a decent dent in it before I start classes in August. I also got a whole bunch of rhinestones and some other nail art stamping plates but I’m still waiting for those to arrive. I wish I had interesting stuff to share right now but I really don’t. So I shall leave you with a music video. A korean song that i can’t stop listening to. I’ll post the English lyrics below.

Not much to say…
I’m going to keep it short for today because, well, I don’t really have much to say. Nothing informational or anything mostly just typing I guess. I worked a fairly long shift at work and I’m kind of tired but don’t yet feel much like sleeping. I was looking forward to coming home and talking to my boyfriend but it seems he fell asleep so it’s kinda too quiet. I think I’m off to bed soon. Getting paid tomorrow so gotta get up early enough to pick up my check. Maybe my sweetie will wake me up? I don’t know lol. Anyway I’m going to share a song that has been on my mind. It’s by Pink who is an amazing artist. It’s perfect. No that’s the song title “Perfect”. Don’t worry it’s the clean version.

DIY Facial
I am subscribed to this girl because she is awesome but I came across this facial and it looks good so I thought that maybe we should try it. Maybe even do it at an H. party?
