Return of the Missing Blogger!

Hey People!

Yes I'm such a slacker. No, i'm not going to apologize - "it's too late to apologize, it's too late!" - because I just know it'll happen again. I really do like blogging, it's just that life takes over.

I was working and now I'm not but that's a long story in itself that I really don't want to talk about, so I'll just get to other stuff!

Recent purchases are black clothes, the new NARS face primer and NARS blush in "orgasm" .... yes I caved. Hush.


I actually did try out a few ideas that I may end up doing a video on this one because I'm so proud!










I didn't think of this myself. I was inspired by it obviously.
One of my favourite YouTube gurus has another channel for vlogs. She had very similar makeup on in this video. I am linking her here and hope she sees it :]

The video I saw:

I don't really talk about the YouTubers I watch much, but there is a select few I never miss.
I'll put their YouTube names here [vlog channel if i can]:
vintageortacky/Ghettoccino
KandeeJohnson/thekandeejohnsonshow
Sokolum79/SokolumsVlog
Nymphette415
Myeyeshadowisodd
ShadowNukks

I do watch other people's often, but those are ones i ALWAYSALWAYSALWAYS watch!



So what's new with me?

My boyfriend and I are looking at moving as soon as finances are good.


Layout of apartment.


Building itself.


Yes I did some editting so then any specific things are out of the photo. Just in case creepers are on here or there's people I really don't want to know where I live.

I can tell you one thing, I'm getting out of where I live now. Small town area. Not far out, but far enough.


Speaking of small town ...
Last year's rumours. Yes, those.
Well there was a rumour going around that I cheated on my ex. I refuse to confirm nor deny any truth to that for the main fact that he started that rumour. Now he's hearing it from other people. I think it's hilarious.
Another rumour is that my ex is leaving - actually, he told my dad. He speaks to my parents but not me. Rude much? I'm not sure where, or when but whatever. If it's true, it's true. If not .... well then.



Canada Day is on Friday. Not sure what's going on but a bunch of us talked about hanging out. I know Saturday my boyfriend and I are going to his aunt nd uncle's place for a post-Canada Day party. It's always interesting meeting your significant other's extended family.




Oh well!
Video hopefully this week and more blog another day!

The Good, The Bad nd The Voice?

Hey everyone!

Sorry I don't update this as much as I would seriously love to but I don't think I could figure out something interesting to say all the time. HA HA!

Well at least right now - even though I'm not really doing videos for awhile nd I'll explain that after - I've been really into lists. Which is what I'm doing here!

The Good
[aka things i'm loving right now]

• Morning commutes
[Is this really cheesy? I like my morning commutes to work because I ride the bus with my boyfriend...]

• Iced Coffee
[specifically from Tim Horton's ...]

• Over Sized Hoodies
[My boyfriend's hoodie specifically. He's note-ably larger than me so his sweater is quite comfortable.]

• Make-Up Artist Fashions
[Because of where I work I get to see lots of different styles of clothes and I really feel this has helped me with my own fashion choices.]

• Make-Up in General
[My love for it has not wavered.]

• Nail Art
[I got the Konad kit about a year ago nd still have no mastered it. Photos below of today's nail art!]

Of course there's bad things going on, like money, stress, etc but I'm in far too good of a mood to even post that!

Haha, sorry.


Has anyone caught episodes of "The Voice" ? I swear, it's like American Idol BUT WAY BETTER!!

The beginning audition, the judges [Christina Aguilera, Cee-Lo Green, Blake Shelton nd Adam Levine] are faced backwards so they only hear the person's voice.

Unlike American Idol, these people are not judged on their looks. I'm sorry [sort of] to those who are Idol fans but they are known to judge on looks. We're a vain generation I suppose.

Anyways, so if the judges like the voice they swivel their chairs. If more than one judge swivels, the contestant gets to choose who's team they're on.

It's a great show and eventually there will be just one person. Aka "The Voice"!



So what's new? I've actually be experimenting with various things. I'm trying to learn how to do "cut crease" but so far it's not working. I may not have the right brush to do it - which would explain a lot ... - however, once things are paid off I'm planning on buying a brush roll from Sigma.


Okay so my Konad nail art didn't work so well. I'm not sure why, but I'm going to look it up to figure this out!





Anyways, probably doing a video soon!
