  [Work/School]

Even though my job right now is stable, I've been applying to jobs just to see what else is out there. I'm kind of in a phase in my life where I'm trying to figure out what God's plan for me is. I'm kind of confused as to what direction I need to go in. That's why I've been applying to random positions. I've also gone through the process of applying back to UW to take a class or two to keep myself educationally updated. Holy cow. I forgot has annoying UW policies are. Filling out an application to take a classes is time consuming, financial straining, and mentally exhausting. I just hope I am able to take a class during Spring Quarter.

Other than that, life's good. I'm trying to enjoy it the best I can.

  [Shopping]

My FedEx package finally arrived! It was filled of makeup brushes. yaaaay. A little bit ago I bought some of those Wet n' Wild eye shadows because Rite Aid was having a good deal going on. I basically bought all of the trio eye shadow palettes. I lacked eye shadow brushes, so I bought some online at E.L.F. I'm sure they aren't the best quality of brushes but they work fine for me. With shipping I paid $25 for all the brushes in the picture plus a little eyebrow palette thing with color & wax.

[Old Pictures]

I was playing around with my dad's DSLR and took some shots of a couple baby photos. This is me. I'm pretty sure this was taken at the playground at Coulon Park, in Renton.

This picture was taken outside of our old house in Tukwila. My haircut confused people. They didn't know if I was a girl or boy. What the heck, RIGHT?! I remember in pre-school how my teacher had to clarify that I was a girl when introducing me to other students. O_o

 [Food]

This is probably why I can't lose weight. UGH. I ate I big scoop for breakfast. I don't even use a bowl. I just find a big serving spoon, take a decent amount of the frozen confection, and eat it in the same manner as I would an ice cream cone. I can't be the only person in the world who does this. It's sooo good!

 [Nails]

I'm going to call this a bacteria mani. It's so gross. It looks like colonies of growing bacteria. It's nasty. Reminds me of the times I spent in microbiology lab. This mani didn't last long on my nails. I put it on last night and took it off this morning. I couldn't look at it any longer.

My current mani. 3 of 31 days of a nail art challenge. Galaxy nails! OOoOoh. ahhhh!

You should see the other girls nails art. They are great!

OPI Holographic My Private Jet

I found the holopgraphic version of OPI's MPJ at a nail salon. It was used and maybe 80% full. I bought it for $8. I looked it up on ebay and there's an auction listing for a brand new bottle and there is a little less than 4 days left. There is 12 bids on it and it's already selling for $31!! What. The. Heck.

I've worn it twice already and I don't like it that much. I don't know. I like the way it looks in the bottle but on my nail it's a different story. It's cool, I guess, but it doesn't amaze me. Maybe it's because I haven't tried it on a sunny day. Do I need to experience the holographic goodness in proper lighting? Ha ha.

I'll try it on again. If third times a charm then great, I'll keep it. If not, I guess I'll just blogsale it.

La dee daaaah.

In other news, it's snowing. Ugh.

My resolution turned into an obsession.

I was just messing around with nail designs. Would I put these on my real nails? From Left to Right: Yes, yes, hell no, sure, maybe if it were in different colors, maybe, yes, yes, & already have.

My nail polish/nail art obsession didn't really start until a few months ago. Here's how my story goes...

Other than a mini obsession w/ nail polish in elementary school I didn't really care for manicures until my sophomore year in college. I blame my "obsession" on the lack of parking available in the University District.

Here's how it started...

1) I lived next to a pay lot where parking happen to be validated if you go to certain shops.
2) Sometimes I would park in that pay lot without paying b/c you could get away with it from time to time.
3) If I got a ticket I could pay the fine of $11 or get a manicure for $10 w/ free validation for parking.

So, of course, I would get a manicure.. which lead to getting many manicures.

Life went on. blah blah blah.

Then for my 2010 New Years' resolution I told myself I would stop going to the nail salon. It's the only resolution I've ever kept.

I turned to Youtube to learn the basics of painting nails. Then I just kept watching more and more videos. Then I started doing nail art... started stamping.. started reading nail blogs.. sometimes I paint on nail wheels because I don't want to redo my nails.. basically, nails are always on my mind...

That's my nail polish story. The end.

One last thing, I kind of want this. Flats in a wristlet. Perfect for future Vegas trips =D

  I wish there was sometime more exciting to blog about. What a boring week so far.
