Los Angeles road trip

I'm finally putting up my LA/IMATS post. We left San Jose around 5:30AM since the youngins were so excited to leave. Arrived at Pico Rivera around noon and chilled until we had to get ready to pick Alvin up from LAX and go to Rage.

Gee taking a pic while I'm getting my hair straightened by Lorraine.

About to get my hair teased like crazy by Gee.

I wish my hair was like hers =T. Jessica (Gee) and I. She's Lorraine's younger sister.

Gee looking super cute!

Mel (their cousin), me, Lorraine and Jessica

Bestie & me. She is, hands down, a jack of all trades. She does hair, makeup and nails. Love her!

Damnit, everyone is still taller than me. Even in my stillettos =(

I'm not gonna lie. Mel gave me a piece of a cookie and before we left for LAX, I was GOOOOOOONNNEEEEE!

I thought I was one of Charlie's Angels with my outfit. I don't know. Don't judge me lol.

Shot time! SoCo & fruit punch CapriSun hahaha

RAGE Restaurant and Bar. This club was freakin packed to the max! Gay boys were sweating up a storm and I felt a couple of them on mah back. Eh.

Alvin's in the mix!

Besties <3 I guess the oldies wore black lol

Mel & I were happy haha

Super happy

Where the heel am I looking at?!

I don't remember taking this picture...

OMG you can tell I'm gone lol. I tried so hard not to look stuck, but it didn't work. No more cookies!

Lorraine said he thought she was taking a picture hahaha. Who is this foo?

They were giving them out. So I figured I'd get one. This foo smelled like cannibus straight up.

The next day, we had Subway for brunch. OMG Lorraine and I were so excited to go to IMATS. We've been waiting for three months and the day finally arrived.

What you see when you walk in

Maxi from Blush

I should've bought more brushes

IYAH! I finally got to meet her! I'm sad that I missed everyone else. She's so pretty. And taller than me. Damnit lol.

After IMATS, we decided to hit up Hollywood Boulevard for shopping and sightseeing. I bought a couple of things from American Apparel, H&M, and the Disney store.

No, I don't look like a tourist.

Imma light you up!

So that's my trip to SoCal. I had pictures, but when I visited Washington last week, they accidentally got deleted somehow. Stupid memory card. So I'm starting from scratch with my pictures lol. At least there was more than one camera on both trips. I'll do my WA post in a bit. Thanks for reading!

Blogger Effing FAIL

IT'S FREAKIN' JUNE ALREADY!?

I apologize (for the umteenth time) for neglecting you. I said I'd put up pics in my last post, but that post was in May. Geez I'm horrible.

I'm getting around to taking pictures of my previous beauty hauls. But in the meantime, I hope this makes up for it.

Sorry, but this post is Twilight-related. >_<

So, Steph aka DSK recently got hooked onto the saga. When I found out she was doing an LE Twilight collection through Nu's blog, I jumped on it. And I must say, the jewelry is absolutely gorge!

My package!!!

Look at the goodies ^_^

More candy <3 Her business card is cuuuuute

*GASP* B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L!!!

The card that was included =D (stupid camera...)

THANK YOU A MILLION TIMES TO STEPHANIE! Go support her! You know you wanna teheehee ^_~

Pictures will come...

Happy May, everybody!

I'm currently at work right now, waiting to get off my shift.

I've been bad. I've been spending lol. Pictures will be up of all the things I've bought in the past month. And I've been eating out a lot with my bf and family. That really has to calm down since I'm trying to save up for the numerous trips I'm going on this year. But I can't help it! I'm impulsive haha. Please don't hate me.

I'll do my best to post everything up on Monday since I'll be in the office tomorrow and Mother's Day is on Sunday.

Till then, peace out y'all!

OVERDUE

Hello, everyone!

I know you're probably thinking, "OMG, SHE'S FINALLY UPDATING!"

I apologize (once again) for being M.I.A. and neglecting my blog. It's been a month (wow) since I've posted and I feel horrible about it. It's only because I don't really have anything makeup-related to update on. And at the time, I didn't have a job to produce makeup-related posts. But never fear, that has changed lol. It's alllll baaaaaaaad.

I'm on Twitter though, so you can always follow me on there.

Someone totally jinxed me last month when he said that I would be sick for a whole month. It came true! I got sick during the week of my birthday, stayed that way for three weeks, got better, and now I'm sick again! It's worse than last time too. That's awesome.

Well, I hope you ladies have been good. I'm slowly updating on reading everyone's blog. Again, I'll try to update as much as I can.

Love you all =)

You down with OPP?

My cousin decided to have an "Old People Party" for her 22nd birthday, which was a pretty kick ass theme btw. I knew my cousin does it big when it comes to dressing up for themed parties since she's done theater her whole life. So I figured I'd dress up like my lola a little bit, with the duster and errthang.

Baby powder helped my hair look gray. Oh wow it looks like I'm balding lol.

The duster. Lorraine tied a sash around it since the duster was actually pretty big on me.

Blue eyeshadow, red lips, and hella blush! Lorraine helped with my hair.

Bday girl getting her geriatric groove on =)

"Daddy & Mommy" lol

RuPaul's Drag Race/MAC VIVA GLAM Challenge

Aside from Blush being one of my favorite makeup competition shows (on Bravo, I think...), I recently found another one:

RUPAUL'S DRAG RACE
click link above to watch episodes online

It's basically a competition to find America's next Drag Queen Superstar by having the contestants participate in weekly challenges.

This week's challenge was the MAC/VIVA GLAM CHALLENGE where contestants needed to film a commercial promoting MAC/VIVA GLAM and the purpose of it. We all know that 100% of the proceeds from MAC/VIVA GLAM go towards the MAC AIDS Fund and AIDS/HIV Awareness. I actually didn't know RuPaul was the first spokesmodel for MAC VIVA GLAM. With that said, the winner of the challenge was Ryan Ong Palao aka Ongina.

Ongina with MAC AIDS Fund Executive Director Nancy Mahon

Ongina's commercial was about celebrating life and the judges found that very true. After hearing the announcement, Ongina broke into tears with the judges wondering why she was crying. She confessed she was living with aids for the past two years. She was afraid to say anything, especially on national tv, but since she won, Ongina decided the world needed to know. She also confessed that her parents were also in the dark with her disease.

RuPaul called Ongina an inspiration for her courage. She is exactly that.

This episode touched my heart. Two of my best friends are gay and if either one suddenly contracted something somehow and was scared to say anything due to peoples' judgements, I would want him to come to me for the love and support he needs.

And that also goes out to anyone I know. I'm always here if you need an ear, a shoulder, anything.

My bf is smart

We just got back from Fry's Electronics and I told him that I couldn't find my cord for my camera. So he went ahead and bought a universal card reader so I can upload my shit. I wasn't even thinking about that lol. At least it can read 16 other memory cards so woohoo! I can take anyone's pictures from their camera, no matter what memory card it is. Mufasahaha!

Anycrap, I just wanted to share with you what I did for Valentine's day weekend. My bf was working on Friday the 13th, so luckily, FUZ landed on that day. We met up at my other bff's house to pre-fade and I said that I'd drive to the event.

My FOTD

What Lorraine and I do best: chillin & sippin on Sangriiiiaaaaa!
She gave all the girls V-Day gifts! Red thong from GAPbody & Always Infiniti <333

That's it for today, y'all. Hope you enjoyed reading and whatnot. Sorry if my posts aren't interesting or anything. But yeah, enjoy the rest of what's left of the weekend ^_^.
