***WARNING: PICTURE HEAVY***

Hey everyone! Major blog-neglect, lolol ;x But, here are some long overdue pictures from WLOVEXO's trip to sunny California! I'll try my best to go in order.

Day 1, July 16, 2010 -- Landed around 8pm. Stayed at my grandma's.

Day 2, July 17, 2010 -- Woke up and got ready to head to my cousin's house in Walnut, CA. T* and I think that Walnut is such a cute city name, ahaha. Got there and met up with my cousins and went to lunch at Yoshinoya. Then, we all went to Yogurtland for a mini treat afterwards. Then, they took T* and I shopping! We went to Brea Mall and Fashion Island. Both are beautiful. Then, at night my cousin's boyfriend treated us to all you can eat korean bbq, *drooooooool* ;x

Yoshinoya's chicken and beef combo. SOOO delish.

Yogurtland. Cute little yogurt place. I miss it :[[

Love, love, love shopping!

All you can eat korean bbq. LOOOOVE.

Day 3, July 18, 2010 -- Met up with one of my friends from CA. He took T* and I to IN-N-OUT for lunch. Then, we went to this mini cupcake shop to kill time before watching Inception. Great movie!

Day 4, July 19, 2010 -- Chill day. Stayed in and relaxed with the fam.

Day 5 & 6, July 20-21, 2010 -- Palm Springs!

Our view from our hotel room :3

THE . MOST . COMFY . BED . EVER !

Day 7, July 22, 2010 -- San Diego Zoo! Then met up with another cousin of mine and caught happy hour at this restaurant by the beach. San Diego is breath taking. Love it. Went for a short walk along the beach after we ate and then headed to downtown San Diego to Extraordinary Desserts!

Panda! So adorable.

Polar bear. Cute butt with a tiny tail, hehe.

Fish taco. So yummy!

Beautiful beach!

Extraordinary Desserts. German Chocolate Cake w/ vanilla ice cream!

Day 8, July 23, 2010 -- Went to dim sum with my cousin and a couple of her friends. Then went for shaved snow nearby. Took CUE! pictures after that (CUE! is like.. these little sticker pictures you take in a booth), and then went to this mini little arcade-ish place in YES PLAZA. For dinner, they took T* and I to Roscoe's for chicken and waffles. Honestly, it did not sound very appetizing at first but it was really good, ahaha.

Green tea shaved snow with red bean topping and mochi :D

Happy Castle at YES PLAZA. Isn't this crazy? Get the ball and win an LV bag!

1$/try. I tried 20$ worth and failed ;[ It's a lot harder than it looks.

Day 9, July 24, 2010 -- Relaxed during the day. Got lunch with my cousins. Went to Olive Garden for dinner and then went clubbing in West Hollywood afterwards at Haute!

WLOVEXO reppin' the East coast 8]

Day 10, July 25, 2010 -- Little Tokyo :] It was really cute. I didn't really stay there that long because my cousin from San Diego came and swooped T* and I up and took us to a shooting range nearby. It was our first time shooting a gun. It was so fun! I would love to go to a shooting range again sometime.

Bang bang!

Day 11, July 26, 2010 -- Ran some errands with my cousin at his school. UC Irvine is such a beautiful school. T* and I absolutely loved it. Then went to this little mexican take out place to grab a bite.

Carne Asada Fries. Yummmm~

Day 12, July 27, 2010 -- Went back to YES PLAZA with T* to have lunch at this korean restaurant. Tofu soup! Ahaha. Then just walked around the plaza and went to CUE! and Happy Castle again. Grabbed dinner with my friend at The Hat later that night.

Chili cheese fries. Sooo good!

Pastrami dip, mmmMm~

Day 13, July 28, 2010 -- Ran some errands in the morning/afternoon. Went to Guppy late at night with my friend.

Spicy popcorn chicken.

Salmon fried rice. The portion was HUUUUGE.

Day 14, July 29, 2010 -- DISNEYLAND.

Fireworks. So beautiful.

World of Color water show. Breath taking. Loved it.

Disneyland was magical. We had an AMAZING time.

The last 3 days were just chill days with the family. California treated us well. Everything/everyone there was amazing.. the weather.. the people.. the food.. EVERYTHING. Thanks to everyone who made our stay there special! I just wanted to share our fun with all you bloggers :] Hope you guys enjoy it and hope you all had an amazing summer as well!

M[CROWN]*

P.S. Sorry my marking isn't the same. I recently purchased a Macbook and I no longer have Paintshop Pro.. so I gotta figure something out :T

BONUS! Lmaooo. I just wanted to throw in this random picture that T* took of me taking a picture of myself, ahahaha. Enjoy!

East to West ♥

2010-07-06T18:45:00.003-04:00

WLOVEXO will be in Los Angeles, CA from 7/16 ~ 8/2. We'll be taking mucho pics to share ;] Summer vacay has been sooo crazy. I've been juggling work + night class + everything else, ahaha. My night classes end this Thursday night. I can't wait! I still, however, have work. This CA trip is a MUST. I'm so happy to be getting out of the East coast for a while. I hope everyone's having an amazing summer!

Entry title dedicated to one of my best ♥

Sorry for not sharing more pictures of Jay Park with you all! To be truthful, T* and I were so happy we just kept snapping random pictures and 1/2 of them are so blurry, hahaha. But, I hope you guys enjoyed T*'s post!

I know I've been a bit MIA since my birthday and I always find myself apologizing for my lack of posts. Life has seriously just been hectic and 2010 has not been the nicest to me ;[[ sigh. I'm trying my hardest to make the best of it though. Life's not gonna get any easier, right? Well.. the good news is.. my 2nd set of exams are over for now! Thank goodness. I made it out alive! Hahaha~ Right after my spring break/bday, I got bombed with exams and papers. Now I can finally relax and just get everything together again! So I hope to be more free to blog! I have been shopping A LOT. I have no posted about any of my recent purchases though, but don't worry! I will start again! I promise! I've been on this make-up craaaze! So I hope to be sharing a lot of that stuff with you guys! :D I know I received a comment asking for a tutorial hahaha. I'm honestly not good enough for that yet ;x but if I MIGHT share my "everyday look" with you guys if I get the courage to do so, lolol. It's nothing crazy.. nothing fancy. It's just with the Natural Smokes quad from Maybelline. So yeah! Stay tuned! Maaaybe I will share ;D

I'm sure you all know what a Twitter is. When I first discovered Twitter.. I was like "there is no way I will EVER join that! What's the point?!" lol. But I did hop on the bandwagon ;x and I did end up creating a twitter account. Sighhhh. Hahaha. I hope I enjoy it and love it as much as everyone else does!

Followers on Blogspot feel free to follow me on Twitter, click: HERE and request me!

My twitter account is currrently protected and I must accept you in order for you to follow me, but please feel free to request me. If I know for a fact that you're from Blogspot, I will more than gladly accept you :D I just want to try a new way to keep everyone posted on what's happening and now that there's an actual application for Twitter for my Blackberry it is so much easier for me to Tweet, lol! I enjoy sharing with you fellow bloggers because you guys share so much with me :3 Excuse the plain look on my Twitter account. I literally JUST started. I remember signing up for an account a while back just to see what it was all about but I totally didn't understand it so I gave up and left it alone all the way up til now, hahaha.

Before I leave, here's one bonus picture of Jay Park for ya ;D

BEST NIGHT OF MY LIFE! [4/3/10] ♥♥♥ (IMAGE HEAVY)

2010-04-04T13:28:00.012-04:00

AHHHHHHHHHH! So I'm sure you guys knew (?) that Jay Park and AOM were one of the performers at the Rutgers KSA:: projectKOREA III: A KSA Cinderella Story last night!

Oh boy! I was super excited! So last Sunday (around 1AM- um I guess early Monday morning LOL), I was ready to go to bed, but I decided I would just go on ALLKPOP and just see if anything was going on in the KPOP world. All of a sudden, I see "Jay Park, Art of Movement, Johnnyphlo, Decipher & more to perform at Rutgers University!" My eyes were like "O.O", and I immediately texted M*! I was like "ADAHDJASHDKHD OMGGG! JAY PARK IS GOING TO BE AT RUTGERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" As you can see, I was extremely excited and I was shaking and my heart was beating like crazy! hahahah. I was sooo happy that he was coming to the EAST COAST! This whole week.. I couldn't stop thinking about it! I even told all my co-workers that I was going to see "my husband" on Saturday =p

On a rainy Tuesday, M*, my bestest friend in the whole entire world♥, got us our tickets! [blah, blogspot deleted this paragraph and I have to type it again >:( ] So we had a pretty busy day on Saturday! First, it was our friends' BBQ at the park, and we got there around 2:30?. We stayed there till 4:15 and went to M*'s house to look pretty for JAY =p. We left around 4:45 and got to Rutgers around 5:15. Parking was terrible because the lot was completely packed. We asked the cop if there are any other places to park and he was like there's another side to the parking lot that we can possible find one. It was funny because he was like "what is going on over there?! there are so many pretty asian girls!" hahaha. So we went to the other side of the parking lot and we found ONE!!!!! Wow, we were sooo happy LOL! So we parked and thanked the cop along the way to the line. The line was really long and we were afraid we wouldn't get good seats. They started letting us in around 6:40 and it was pretty fast paced!

Thankfully, we had a pretty good view~ (I'll show a picture towards the end of this post!). I read there was like over 800 people? in the Nicholas Music Center. It didn't seem there was 800 people in there. That's crazy! hahah. But anyways, first, it was the musical (based on the popular drama called GOONG). It was really entertaining and funny! All the actors did a GREAT job and so did everyone else in the musical! Some of my favorite moments: Prince Shin screaming when he saw the Princess and his cousin leaving together, the cousin (sorry, I forgot his name :x) and the Princess doing the candy scene from IRIS, and etc!) After the musical, that is when the performers entertained us [Clara Chung, Decipher, Johnnyphlo ft. Ailee, and ART of MOVEMENT:: Jay Park, Cha Cha, Dialtone, and Junior]. I really liked how all the singers collaborated and sang "Nobody" by the Wonder Girls.

After each performance, there would do 3 raffles each and each of the winners would get a poster of all the autographs of the performers! When Jay was reading the numbers of the raffle ticket, you knew how the crazy the crowd went! =p

So anyways, of course, the last performer was ART OF MOVEMENT. Oh boy. The crowd went CRAZZZZZZZZZZZY when they came out esp. JAY! In the beginning of the program, they advised us that we couldn't use FLASH, and we couldn't record any videos... but you know that wasn't the case because we could not help ourselves!!!! hahaha. AOM was awesome! They defin. know how to work the crowd. It was really sweet how JAY acknowledge us, fans and thanked us♥

[MESSAGE]::: Jay, thanks for making my dreams come true by coming to JERSEYYY! You and AOM were great~ Please come back to the East Coast and do another performace! Stay healthy and I hope to see you sooon! Saranghaeyo♥

HAHAHA, so yeah that's the end of my fangirling rant. :x So here are some of the pictures of (my husband) JAY. I took videos but I'm not gonna post them. I'm sure you guys saw them already but if not, go ahead and check it outtt on youtube or somethinggg~ heheh.

Our view (no zoom!)

My FAVORITE pic of him♥

1 of the many tongue faces =p

"WOAAHHHHHHHHH~"

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

Jay + fitted cap= ♥♥♥♥
Sorry for the so-so quality! :x

P.S. ~ Did anyone else go?! Share your moment with us!

And okay, there's this ONE song that sounds soooo familiar but I just do not know who sings it! It was played when the two Princes were fighting for the Princess's love! Does anyone know what the song was called?!

xoxo,
tiff

BIG TWO ONE ! { EDITED }

2010-03-24T14:56:00.017-04:00

I am SOOO sorry for the delay. I've been so busy lately doing I don't know what, but I feel like I haven't had time to really sit down and breathe ever since my spring break ended. I've been trying to get back on track with everything and honestly I go to work, go to class, come home.. eat, clean, and then sleep? Hahaha. This is how my life as a 21 year old has been ever since, lol. How fun. ANYWAYS! On to the good stuff! I honestly am not even going to lie.. I don't have all the pictures I want to upload yet.. I only have a few, but I figured why not get some up? That won't hurt, right? ;x I'm so sorry for the lack of updates.. but here goes!

I don't know if I previously mentioned that I get my nails done.
I normally do NOT get it filled with gel, but for this particular design
I had to. I was inspired by Ms. Trina Mui :) I am a follower of her blog
and I came across her entry about her nails and I just fell in love with it!

My gf got me this Marc by Marc Jacobs cosmetics pouch.
I absolutely love it. I carry it with me everywhere ♥

She also got me a Dug plushie doll from the Disney Store.
Anyone who knows me knows that I absolutely adore the cartoon UP.
It is by far my favoritest cartoon EVER ♥

My other gf got me the UP dvd! I was so happy ;3
I watched it again and fell in love with it all over, hahaha.

T* tried to surprise me with this ;p
She did such a great job keeping it a secret from me this year, lolll!

She got me the Tiffany's Crown Charm and Chain
I absolutely LOVE it ♥♥♥ We originally saw this on
Little Miss Queenie's blog and I totally had to have it.
I love crowns! So, T* surprised me with this!

One of my other gfs got me a TON of makeup, omg, hahaha.
It can seriously last me a century. One of the things she got me
(which is got me last year also) is the Fiberwig mascara ♥ This
masacara is amazing. It really lengthens your lashes and you can
see how much longer your lashes are with every coat you apply.

Me & Dug ♥ at Olive Garden, lmao.
I am wearing a Forever21 dress. I totally scored BIG TIME
with this dress. I saw it online when it first came out and I
called the Forever21 in the mall closest to me to see if they'd
have it in the store (cus if they had in the store, why would I
order it online?). They told me that this item was an online only
and only California stores carry it. So! Of course I ordered it
online immediately, hahaha. It was only 25$ (rounding up) and
I got so many compliments on it the night of my birthday.
The color of the dress is lavender, in case you can't tell. I know
you can't really see it, but it's a one shouldered dress. I'll
probably be uploading a full body picture later :D

My first drink-drink; Strawberry Mango Frozen Margarita.
It was alright? Nothing too crazy.

That's like my birthday in a nutshell, hahaha. I'm hoping to get more pictures up? But yeah.. aside from all that.. I've been hardcorely addicted to buying makeup! Omg. It's ridiculous. My gf's always suggesting youtube users to me, telling me to watch it on my free time, lmao. So I've been trying out a lot of things. I don't have a picture of all the things I bought (which is a lot), but I do have a picture of my favorite product as of right now!

Maybelline Expert Wear Eyeshadow Quads.
I have four. I have the Chai Latte (top left),
Charcoal Smokes (top right), Natural Smokes (bottom left),
and the Sunlit Bronze (bottom right).

Natural Smokes. This is probably my favorite eyeshadow
right now. It's exactly what the name says it is, lolll.
To be completely honest, I normally don't even take the time
to do eyeshadow everyday. I just do a simple look with eyeliner.
But I hope to get the hang of doing a quick look with some
eyeshadow. Hopefully I can post up pictures when I get better :D

I've also tried a couple of false lashes lately. I really wasn't
a fan of falsies before because the ones I had really weighed
down my eyes. I don't know why it didn't occur to me then to
try searching for a better pair? Hahaha. Anyhow, for my birthday..
I decided to give false lashes another chance. I tried two different
brands. Modlashes and Fashion Lashes. They're both around
the same price.. 3-4$. Mmm, I'm liking the Modlashes better
as of right now, but I'm still testing them out :]

Unfortunately that's all I have for now :[ I'm sorry you guys waited so long for these dinky pictures.. I'm hoping to share more pictures with you in the near future. I have exams coming up again next week.. FML, seriously. Well, I hope you guys enjoy the pictures I put up! The weather is getting much nicer lately! Enjoy the rest of your week, everyone!

M[CROWN]*

P.S. Props to T* for making WLOVEXO's new banner! ;D

BIG TWO ONE!

2010-03-20T17:17:00.001-04:00

Stay tuned for my birthday update! ;3 It'll take some time to get the pictures organized and stuff so hang in there!

ONE . MORE . WEEK !

2010-03-08T13:14:00.014-05:00

During this weekend I finished watching a drama while waiting for CHUNO to be subbed. The drama is called Thank You. The same lead actor from CHUNO plays in Thank You. He is just perfection in every way ♥ T* watched this drama a while back and asked me to watch it. I never got around to it until now. I finished it in 3 days, I believe? Hahaha. I'm pretty quick with dramas, espcially the ones that are complete. This drama is a romantic melodrama with a hint of comedy. I would definitely recommend it :] And really.. word just can't justify how amazing Jang Hyuk is..

♥♥♥♥♥

If anyone is interested in watching Thank You
please click: HERE

So T* and I went to the city this weekend. We stopped by the Marc Jacobs Special Item store and I picked up a shirt and a ring for myself. We also stopped by Kidrobot. I love little keychains and stuff so I couldn't help but buy a couple of things from there too ;x I wanted to buy cupcakes from Magnolia Bakery, but the line went around the corner so I decided not to wait :[ We met up our gf for dinner and then visited her apartment! It was nice :D I can't wait to have my own place. While I was in the city, my package from Amazon came!

NYU Skin Cancer Tee
"Protect The Skin You're In" feat. Carla Gugino

Latin Ring
It says "Tibi In. Omne Tempus" which means "For You. Forever"

Super Mini Keychain Series 4; Pirate (left)
Gloomy Bear Zipper Pull Series (right)
Both of these are in blind boxes which means you never know
what you get until you open it :p It's so addicting.. cus I want to
collect them all! Hahaha.

I don't know why I like Gloomy Bear so much. It's a bit violent,
but cute nonetheless hahaha ;3

Panasonic Heated Eyelash Curler in Blue
Credit: Ekimura

Panasonic Pivoting Facial Groomer in Pink
I got so that my order would be shipped for free ;x lolll.

I personally would never recommend shaving your eyebrows or any facial hair (for girls). I would recommend waxing, threading, or just simply plucking. That way you really get the roots out. Shaving will only make your hair grow back faster and thicker (gross hahaha). I think it's not a bad idea to have some sort of a facial groomer just in case? If you're on the run and you need to fix a couple of hairs here and there and you don't have time to whoop out your handy dandy tweezer and mirror, I can totally understand haha. This facial groomer tool got great reviews, so I'm not upset that I purchased it :] and hopefully the heated eyelash curler works as well for me as it does for Eki! I also got my Forever21 package not too long ago.. but I'm not really liking the things I ordered so I'm probably going to do some exchanges/returns. Still waiting on my E.L.F. package!

Mmm, I am still hunting for a dress. My birthday is next Thursday and I am dress-less, haha. I hope to find one soon! I am also on the look out for cute nail designs! Recommendations are welcomed! :3 Nooow I have to get ready for class, boo.. Hope everyone had a great weekend! It's starting to get warmer outside, thank goodness!

M[CROWN]*

Freeeeeedom ;p

2010-03-04T23:24:00.001-05:00

I am officially free of exams! Until the end of March at least, hahaha. Thank goodness. That was a very stressful week. Not much has been going on. I've just been looking for a dress for my birthday! My birthday is 2 weeks from today! I'm just going to have dinner with all my friends to celebrate :]

Did anyone watch The Bachelor this season? Well, I initially never planned on it, but T* convinced me to check it out, so I did. I ended up watching the whole season, and I'll be quite honest.. I didn't expect Vienna to be the last one standing. They seem very happy together though.

Vienna & Jake

He proposed to her with a Neil Lane, princess-cut,
2.72 carat engagement ring. It's gorgeous~

This was the runner-up, Tenley.
I really like her and I really thought she was going to win :[

The Bachelor ended on Monday, March 01, 2010. Now I have nothing to watch on Monday nights after class lol. I was online shopping the other night and I came across these:

"Athena" by Betsey Johnson
I must have them. I loveloveLOVE leopard print ♥

I am exhausted. I had work from 8AM-3PM today. Then I had class from 6:10PM-7:30PM. Then I came home for dinner and I went to the gym right after. Now I'm finally at home sitting down and breathing, lol. I ordered a couple of things online last week and I'm waiting for the packages to arrive. I'm finally giving E.L.F. a try! I got a 50% off all Studio line promo code from RetailMeNot. T* and I also purchased a couple of things from Forever21, so I'm waiting on that as well. And I also ordered the Panasonic Heated Eyelash Curler that Eki uses ;] I will definitely share when I get everything :D

Here are a couple of things on my wishlist ;3
[ ] Macbook or Macbook Pro; I need a new laptop. My Sony VIAO is asdfghjkl;
[ ] Rainboots; I am in desperate need of rainboots.
[ ] Longchamp 'Le Pliage Large' Tote Bag in Billberry.
[ ] MARC BY MARC JACOBS 'Totally Turnlock' Flap Wallet in Black.
[ ] DVD player; somehow my DVD player broke? So I would like to get a new one asap lol.

There are obviously a lot more other things I want. I am hoping to have those 5 things listed by the summer time, hopefully? Hahaha. Well, I won't really be needing rainboots in the summer, but they're good to have!

That is pretty much it for now. I will definitely update when I get all the stuff I ordered! :] T* and I are hitting up the city this weekend to visit one of our gfs ;D I know we're supposed to start saving $ as of March 01, 2010 ;x We'll see how that goes, hehe. Hope everyone has a nice weekend!

2010-02-27T23:17:00.017-05:00

I. Went. Shopping. This. Weekend! ;]
I feel so content, lmao. I really haven't gone shopping-shopping for the looongest time. I've been like a hermit crab ever since the first round of exams hit. It felt so nice to just go out this weekend. Like I said.. my Friday exam got pushed back to this coming Tuesday, so I have one more to go! Can you believe tomorrow ends February? It's going to be March on Monday! I have spring break in just about 2 weeks. To be honest, I really thought this semester would drag on forever, but it's been moving along quite fast? Hahaha. Okok, enough about that. Let's get to the fun part! Hehehe. Here are the things that I bought todayyy:

Revlon ColorStay Pressed Powder in 840 Medium (sale)
NYX Blush in Dusty Rose (sale)
&Eco Tools Retractable Kabuki brush

Here's my Jelly keycap! ;]
Sooo cuuute! LOL.

Last but not least, the shoes I want to get for spring/summer. Weather, please be warm asap. Thanks.

No more snow, PLEASE!

2010-02-27T00:27:00.009-05:00

I cannot stand the snow anymore. Yes, I am happy that my Friday class got cancelled and my exam got postponed, but seriously.. it needs to stop. I don't recall the last time we got this much snow. I had to shovel my car out of a pile of snow today. That took me just about an hour. I'm totally going to have back pains tomorrow. I've been so bored lately because of exams. I've been forcing myself to stay focused. Due to the snow, my last exam got pushed back to Tuesday. So, I still have one more to go! Then I will finally be freeeee. I was supposed to go spend a day in the city with my gfs this Sunday, but that doesn't look like it'll happen because it's supposed to snow and rain some more! How lovely. I haven't gone shopping in a long, long, LONG time and I'm itching to buy something. I know T* and I made a promise to save money (starting March 01, 2010), but I can't help ittt ;[ lmao. Shopping soothes my heart, hahaha.

I stopped by the mall today with T* because she was looking for a dress to wear for my birthday. It was a really quick trip. Then we met up with another gf of ours to have dinner and catch up. During our dinner, our gf ordered a Southwest Wedge Salad, not thinking that it'd actually be a wedge of lettuce.. lmao. It was just the funniest presentation we've ever seen. She ended up asking them to take it back and getting a regular house salad instead.

Southwest Wedge Salad, lolll ;p

After dinner we all just went home. T* and I actually have work Saturday morning so our Friday night ended pretty early. Plus, it was just freeeezing outside. So, Saturday.. I have work from 9AM-1PM. Then I think I'm gonna make another trip to the mall to actually walk around a bit for myself. After that I'll probably hit the gym. Then I'll probably stay in and study some more for my exam on Tuesday. I still have to watch Public Enemies. I have to return the movies on Monday? I think. Ohhh! As you may already know.. I've started a new drama! :3 It's called CHUNO. So far so good! Only 3 episodes are free as of right now on Dramafever. Episodes 4-10 will be free as of March 04, 2010!

If anyone is interested in watching CHUNO
please click: HERE or HERE

My birthday's coming up! I don't think I'm doing anything crazy big. I just want to have a good time with good people ♥ T* is doing a pretty good job keeping my present a secret from me this year.. usually she cracks when I bother her, lmao. Hopefully I will have a lot of pictures to share :]

Current songs suck in my head:
♪ MBLAQ ft. C-LUV- If you come into my heart (thanks T* lmao~)
♪ Lady GAGA ft. Beyonce- Telephone
♪ Jason Derulo- In my head

Surprise! Surprise! heheh, another update~ Just a quick one though! It is snowing here in the East Coast.. boooo. But the only positive thing is that classes are cancelled! =)

Here's a picture of what I took last week or so? when we had a blizzard. CRAZY.

Hehe, that is all for now~ If you have snow in your area, drive safe, be warm, and drink some hot chocolate!

Oh and btw, I've been listening to MBLAQ Feat C-Luv - If You Come Into My Heart on repeat! Go listen!

xoxo,
Tiffany

Tiffany is back!

OMGGG! So sorry~ I haven't blogged since November? Shame on me.. :x LOL. But, M* is doing a great job with this blog! Thanks best friend! heheh

How's everyone?! I've been okay.. things have been eh, but I hope it will get better. Let's see. Hm, am I the only one watching the Winter Olympics?! LOL. It isn't as exciting as the 2008 Summer Olympics, but I still do enjoy watching this Olympics. I've been watching it almost everyday and I enjoy watching: figure skating, hockey, short track, speed skating, and snowboarding. Of course, there are some eye candies to look at (Apolo Anton Ohno, J.R. Celski, and that's all I can think of. Do share if you think any are cuuute)! Mhmm! ;D

For some reason, I've been having a little addiction with make-up and hair styles! HAHA. I guess this all started when my cousin, Jen took me to ULTA since she's into make-up right now. I'm not that big on make-up because the only make-up I wear everyday is eyeliner, but when I'm going out, I'll use my white shimmer stick. But, anyways, so Jen urged me to buy some stuff so here you go. I spent about $30+, which is a lot for me since like I said I only wear eyeliner. :x

OPI - Lincoln Park at Midnight, Prestige Black Eyeliner (lol, needed another one), NYX - Eyeliner in Sapphire, NYX - Jumbo Eyeshadow Pencil in Yogurt (tried it and not to crazy about it) [buy one, get one free for NYX], Two Faced Shadow Insurance (using the small one for now), and LASplash in Nude Diamonds.

M* also did my nails for Valentine's Day! Again, thanks best friend!! hahaha.

Red Tip: China Glaze ; Heart of Africa
Silver Lining: Stripe Rite ; Silver
Red Hearts/Pink Hearts: Nicole by O.P.I ; Have A Heart / Love Your Life
Extra Sparkle: Cover Girl Boundless Color ; Disco Dazzle

Even though I don't really follow girl groups (except for 2NE1) but I was watching Kara's new MV: Lupin, and I just looooove their make-up. Yeah I know.. it probably isn't hard to do, but I'm a make-up newbie so it's okay. hehe. I actually even downloaded the MV in HD to get a better look of their make-up. -__- hahah. Here's the screencap:

And, here is one of the hairstyles I saw that I thought was really niiice on Soompi's The Hairstyle Tutorial Thread. Credit goes to pillowbox at soompi.

Gossip Girl's new season is suppose to be out March 8th? I think. I guess I'll watch the new episode even though I read a spoiler..sighh* but isn't Leighton Meester just gorgeous?

That's all for now~ hehe. Don't worry.. I will update soooon, and it won't be every 3 months lmao ;p

xoxo,

Blog or Study? + Nicol &Ani's GIVEAWAY

GIVEAWAY!

I am currently studying for all my exams next week. Sooo fun! (NOT!) I decided to procrastinate like I always do and write an entry instead! Hahaha. So I finished watching Law Abiding Citizen and I enjoyed it very much. Gerard Bulter, Gerard Bulter, Gerard Butler ♥ lmao. I don't really know what it is I like about him. After I found out he played the Phantom in Phantom of the Opera I think I just fell in-like him with him THAT much more, hahaha. You know which other male celebrities I like? Ashton Kutcher and Ryan Reynolds ♥ I used to find Ashton Kutcher to be quite annoying. I never though much of him. I always thought he was just going to be another trash celebrity, but to my surprise.. he really shaped himself up and climbed to the top! He just has this charm about him, hahaha. He's handsome, cute, and funny. Ryan Reynolds? The man's just gorgeous, lmao, and also handsome, cute, and funny. It's like the perfect package. Too bad both are married ;p

I went to the gym this morning. Had a good hour workout. Then went to return the DVDs I borrowed and rented 2 other ones. I rented.. Public Enemies with Johnny Depp and Gamer with none other than.. Gerard Bulter! Hahaha. Hope those 2 will be good!

Not only do I watch dramas, I actually watch anime too! :x You can call me a nerd/loser if you like, haha. I'm not even that old, but it brings out the kid in me, lolol. I am currently watching Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood. Fullmetal Alchemist actually came out a long time ago, but apparently, to my understanding, the first one that came out did not follow the orignal manga. So, they remade it! It's currently still incomplete. A new episode usually comes out every Sunday. I am currently waiting for the newest episode to be subbed. It's about 2 brothers who try to bring their mother back to life using alchemy/equivalent trade. Little did they know, human transmutation is a forbidden practice in alchemy. Their attempt to recreate their mother failed causing the younger brother to lose his whole entire body and the older brother to lose his left leg. With the strength that he had left, the older brother then sacrifices his right arm to put his younger's soul onto a hallow piece of armor. So, the story is about their journey to retreive their bodies.

please click: HERE

I've watched a couple of different animes and this one is quite dark/sad, but I enjoy the storyline very much. It's much deeper than the other ones I've watched, not saying that the other ones were all meaningless, hahaha. And also, this one's not one of those animes that drag onto 500 episodes. I remember the first one being only 51 episodes, so I'm assuming this one will roughly be the same. Some other animes I've seen are: Naruto {complete}, Naruto Shippuden {on-going), Bleach {on-going}, Death Note {complete}, Shuffle {complete}, Paradise Kiss {complete}, Samurai Champloo {complete}, Trigun {complete}. Anime is an on/off thing for me. When I have time, I'm usually relatively caught up with the ones I watch, but when I'm busy.. I definitely fall behind. Like with Bleach.. I don't even remember where I left off because I missed so many episodes already, haha. It's well into the 200s. I'm probably 100 episodes behind. I've finished all the ones that are complete though. I enjoyed all of them :]

OK! Enough about that! ;x Sorry for boring everyone. Just thought I'd share another side of me with the readers, hahaha. I have love for many different types of things (as you can see :pp). I'm always willing to try new things! Mm, so while I was browsing through movies online.. I realized that Shutter Island came out in theaters on the 19th. Leonardo Dicaprio- another handsome man, hahaha ;] I really want to watch it. Hopefully I can get on that after my exams!

So, T* and I have made a promise to each other. We promised each other that.. as of March 1, 2010.. we will not go out to eat (birthdays are an exception, being that my own birthday is in March LOL :x) and we will not go shopping like crazy. We promised each other that we're going to save money for our future vacation together :] Hopefully, we can make that happen! Hehehh. As I mentioned, my birthday's coming up in March and I have a looong wishlist ;x Hey, I can wish, right? Wishing doesn't mean spending? :x Hahaha. Maybe I'll make a wishlist entry later to share my wants with you guys!

That's all for now! Goodbye social life, hello textbooks ;[

Iljimae vs. The Return of Iljimae. T* and I watched Iljimae first and we LOVED every second of it. It was the first historic drama we've ever watched. I don't really know how we decided on watching it, but I'm so glad we gave it a chance. It had everything; It was funny, romantic, thrilling. It was just well-rounded all in all. Because I loved Iljimae so much, I finally decided to give The Return of Iljimae a chance. At first, I thought it was supposed to be the sequel to the first Iljimae, but it's actually not hahaha. MBC just decided to remake Iljimae from SBS. T* told me that The Return of Iljimae got GREAT reviews and that people seemed to love it a lot. I guess I had pretty high expectations for it because the original Iljimae was sooo good. I watched/finished it and.. honestly, I did not like it at all. People said that they loved the storyline, but I actually did not enjoy it at all. Maybe I'm being biased about it because I love the original one so much. I don't know. It's not a drama I would recommend.

I signed up for the gym in the beginning of February and I've been going 2-3x a week. It feels great. I personally enjoy working out in the morning before I eat lunch. It wakes me up and it makes me feel pretty good for the rest of the day :] Because I've been hitting the gym, I've been cutting fast food out of my life. I've been trying my best to eat healthier. So, there's this place called Muscle Maker Grill. The name of it sounds so manly and unappealing, lmao.. but I've been hearing good things about this place since last year so I finally decided to give it a shot. Their motto is "Great Food with Your Health in Mind", hahaha. So far I've only tried 2 things from there. I've tried the Penne with Marinara with Grilled Chicken and I've tried the Arizona. The Penne with Marinara with Grilled Chicken was alright. It wasn't anything crazy. I really like the Arizona though. It's Grilled Chicken, Turkey Bacon over Brown Rice topped with Low-card Southwest Sauce. If I had their Southwest Sauce, I would totally just make this at home lol. Healthy food is always a bit pricey. That's probably the only downfall of this place.

Arizona, yummm ;9

Yesterday, my mom and I went around running errands. We went to Staples, The Asian Food Market, Walmart, Sally's Beauty Supplies and then Blockbuster. I just picked up random things here and there, haha.

I bought a cute pink glue gun along with the glue sticks. I've been meaning to get one for a while. At random times, I'll be constructing something and find myself needing one sooo I finally got around to getting one! Lol. I found this whole section in Walmart that I never knew existed, haha. Walmart truly has everything. I also bought this roll of 1 1/2" red ribbon. It's always good to have these things at home just in case you need to wrap a present or something ;D I rented Law Abiding Citizen and The Stepfather. I remember myself saying I wanted to watch The Stepfather because "Dan from Gossip Girl is in it!" lmao, but I no one wanted to pay 10$ to go see it in the theater. I forgot about it and realized that it came out on DVD already so I rented it! Hahaha. I started watching it last night but I had to go out to eat with my friends so I didn't get to finish it until this afternoon. It wasn't anything special, hahaha. I'm going to watch Law Abiding Citizen later tonight. I think Gerard Butler is very handsome :3 hehh. Hopefully that movie will be good! I picked up 2 nail polishes at Sally's:

Love Letters by China Glaze (front)
&Coral Star by China Glaze (back)

I can't wait til the weather gets warmer. I really can't stand the cold anymore. I can't wait to go tanning and go to the beach and everything! Hopefully this semester goes by fast and the summer comes soon. I have exams all of next week so I'll be MIA until that's done ;[ Totally not excited for that. Wish me luck!

Love Day

2010-02-18T14:47:00.009-05:00

Happy Valentine's Day + 4 days, hahaha. I hope everyone had an amazing day however they decided to spend it :3 My valentine got me a yellow rose. I asked why and he said because everyone has red and because I like yellow roses, lol. Then, he treated me out to lunch anddd we ended the day by watching the movie Valentine's Day. We pre-ordered tickets online because we knew the theater was going to be chaotic and we were 110% right. The line waiting for this movie was a mile long. It was nuts!

My yellow rose :D

Valentine's Day
I loved it. It was very cute =]
I had a great day.

No love for G-Dragon?! :o Hahaha. No love for the GIVEAWAY? Well, I'll definitely keep that posted up for you guys! Spread the word/love, please! I'll get the GIVEAWAY details up ASAP, and we'll see how things go!

New Year (belated), New Layout, New Beginnings, &GIVEAWAY?!!!

2010-02-13T22:52:00.030-05:00

I know it's almost mid-February, but I hope everyone is having a wonderful 2010! Sorry for going MIA. There's just been a lot of personal things going on in my life.. not to make excuses or anything. I still love blogging! :D

As you can see, WLOVEXO has changed our layout. The banner features scenes captured from the drama IRIS. I recently watched it. I finished the whole entire drama in 3 days. It was thaaat good, lmao! I would totally recommend it!

If anyone is interested in watching IRIS

please click: HERE

Ok now let's recap! DECEMBER 2009. Not only was it the holidays.. AVATAR came out in theaters December 18th! Who has not seen Avatar yet?! Omg. It was truly an amazing and beautiful movie. The plot was a bit cliche, but I still loved it! If you haven't seen it, you definitely should watch it. I went to watch it in 3D IMAX with my bf!

I know it's dark and blurry, but this was right before the movie started.
We got cool 3D goggles to wear ;p hahaha!

Aside from the must-watch-movie.. there was also.. CHRISTMAS! Christmas is definitely one of my favorite holidays! My gfs and I don't really exchange gifts anymore. Instead, we always get together to have a holiday dinner. This year, we went to Kona Grill. I believe it opened up around us in late 2008 or early 2009. I'm not too sure, but it was my first time there. It was pretty nice.

My appetizer; Spicy Tuna Roll, yummm ;9

T*'s appetizer; Potstickers.

My dinner; Pad Thai Noodles - Chicken.

T*'s dinner; Pan-Asian Noodles.

After dinner, T*, another gf of ours, and I went to a nearby Uno Chicago Grill to have dessert because we had nothing else to do. We al shared:

Chocolate Chocolate Malt Layer Cake.
This was sooo good, omggg lol~

Uno Deep Dish Sundae!
Also very yummy!

I think this picture can speak for itself, lolol.

Even though my gfs and I no longer exchange presents, T* and I still got each other a little something something ;pp

Juicy Couture Bow Stud Earrings.
T* got these for me and I love them! :3

She also got me this nail polish!
Heart of Africa by China Glaze.

I got her a Logitech webcam so she can webcam with me since she moved and she doesn't live 2 seconds away from me anymore ;[ We are now roughly 15 minutes apart, lmao. I know it's not that bad, but still! We used to live right across the street from each other! Hahaha. I got my bf an 8GB iTouch with a clear hard case cover and he got meee:

Louis Vuitton Monogram Multicolore Bandeau in Black.
I looove it. It's so pretty ;3

My bf and I also went to go eat at this cute little sushi place nearby his house in the beginning of December. The place is called Go Wassabi. It was so cute, hahaha =]

Our appetizer; Beef Negimaki.
It was really good!

My sushi; Maki A.
I also got Miso Soup and Salad.

Maki A - Tuna Roll, Salmon Roll, & California Roll.

His sushi; Maki C - Yellowtail Roll, Spicy Tuna Roll, & California Roll.
I should've gotten this one ;[ hahaha.

That's it for the food, hahaha. On to RECENT PURCHASES! I actually haven't really been shopping much.. I've been to Forever21 a couple of times but I didn't really find much. These are just 2 things I bought back in December:

I actually bought 2 of these in 2 different sizes.
I bought a size 7 and a size 8. I'm probably going to
be giving the size 8 away :]

I bought this shirt! I saw it online and I thought
it was so cute so I had to buy it, lolll!

I bought a couple of other things that I didn't get to take pictures of. I purchased a pair of gray jeans, black yoga pants, 2 pairs of black leggings, and I believe I got some earrings and some more rings, hahaha. I can't even remember ;x I'll definitely try to take more pictures of the things I purchase from this point on, hahaha.

I didn't buy this. T* actually surprised me today and
gave this to me at lunch! She bought it for me when
she went to the city yesterday! I absolutely LOVE it.
It's a leopard print scarf in case you guys can't tell, haha ;]

Now, let's talk about the GIVEAWAY! (This is NOT the actual GIVEAWAY entry!)
WLOVEXO wants to have a GIVEAWAY to thank all the people who read our blog :] It really means a lot. We know we don't have many followers, but we know that there are people out there who do read our blog. Thank you so much for reading! As you can see, we're still at the beginning stage of blogging. Hopefully we'll get the hang of things and start blogging more frequently! On behalf of WLOVEXO, I just want to make a few things clear before we post the actual GIVEAWAY entry. I'm sure many of you have entered in GIVEAWAYS before, so you must be familar with the process/rules. WLOVEXO would like to state that ONLY FOLLOWERS WILL BE ALLOWED TO ENTER THIS GIVEAWAY!

With that said.. here's a sneak peek at what we're giving away ;]] Who knows/loves G-Dragon? As you may already know, he came out with his solo album, Heartbreaker, in 2009! Many of you probably followed him on YGTV. If you did see GD on YGTV, some of you might have noticed his cute heart beanie hat (or not? ;x) T* and I saw it and couldn't get over how cute it was.

GD and his doggy Gaho! How cuuute.

So! After seeing the hat, we were inspired to recreate our own. During our free time, we went out and bought a hat along with all the fabrics and materials needed to make it. Anddd, here is the finished product:

It is very similar to GD's hat, but it doesn't have the
pompom on top ;[

Anyways. It's the first one we made and the only one we made as of right now, and we would like to give it away to a lucky reader/follower/fellow G-Dragon fan :D

Here are just some of the other things we're planning to give away.
All of these things are from Forever21.
- Pink Metallic Cosmetics Bag
- Favorite Satin Bow Headband in Red
- Leaf Shaped Earrings in Gold
- Forever21 Oil Control Film
- Forever21 Two in One Cosmetics Brush

Yepp! Those are just some of the items WLOVEXO will be giving away. We are hoping to post the actual GIVEAWAY entry by the end of February so that gives us some time to prepare and gives our readers some time to spread the word/love :] hahaha. We willd decide how we want to go about the GIVEAWAY depending on how many followers we have/how many people are interested.

If you are interested in this GIVEAWAY, we would like to ask you to just simply comment this entry just so we can get a rough idea on how many people are interested. If there are A LOT of people interested, we will give away more things. ONE COMMENT PER PERSON & AGAIN, YOU MUST BE A FOLLOWER! Thank you :] These comments will not count towards the actual GIVEAWAY.

The actual GIVEAWAY entry will have all the details and rules, but if you have any questions or concerns feel free to comment or e-mail us: wlovexo@gmail.com! We will try our best to answer all your questions!

WOW. Ok, that's a lot to take in all at once.. lol. I hope my entry actually made sense. I typed everything so fast.. I probably have a million typos ;x but yesss, that's all for now! Thanks so much for sticking around! Hopefully our GIVEAWAY will be successful and will lead to more entries and more GIVEAWAYS in the future! I hope everyone has a Happy Valentine's Day and 新年快樂! (Happy Chinese New Year! to all the Chinese people)!

New Moon, Birthdays, &Randomness

2009-11-21T22:44:00.016-05:00

As you all know.. New Moon, from the Twilight Saga, came out in theaters on Friday, November 20, 2009! Being the nerds that we are, T* and I along with another gf went to see the midnight showing of the movie! Thank goodness I pre-ordered the tickets days ahead of time. I checked to see if the tickets were still available the day after I purchased them and they were sold out!

New Moon! Ahhhhh~

T* & our gf with their printed out tickets!

Right before the movie started!
Excuse my ridiculous wardrobe. I wore my high school
sweatpants + a tanktop with a cardigan
+ my Juicy Couture jacket.
It was 12AM in the morning and it was a 2hr movie.
I aimed to be as comfortable as possible, lmao.

The theater was packed with people of all ages. It was mostly all females, but there were a couple of bfs watching with their gfs, lol. So many people had their Twilight tshirts and all. Everyone was smart and went to the theater 30mins-1hr ahead of time to get decent seats. By the time the 3 of us got there, it was pretty packed already. Luckily we found 3 decent seats towards the middle! :D

The movie was good, but like always.. the book was a million gajillion times better. Sorry for all the Edward fans out there, but.. TEAM JACOB~ How can you resist Jacob and his 8 pack? ;p Hahaha. If you haven't read or watched New Moon.. read it, watch it, and love it! Lol :]

So, my fall semester is coming to an end in about a month. Can you believe Thanksgiving is next week?! This semester just flew right by me. My spring semester won't be as easy-breezy. Unforunately, I'm stuck taking afternoon classes instead of my usual morning classes. I'm not very excited about that. Anyhow, I'm pretty excited for winter break. I get roughly a full month off. I can't wait til Christmas and New Years! :D Hehe.

Recently, I've been sick so I've been resting at home a lot. T* persuaded me to watch this korean drama (I can't believe it..)! It's called You're Beautiful. It stars Jange Geun Suk (from the movie Baby and Me), Park Shin Hye (from the dramas Stairway to Heaven, Tree of Heaven, Goong S, and more), Lee Hong Ki (from FT Island), Jung Yong-hwa (a upcoming artist), and UEE (from After School). The plot of the whole drama sounds a bit stupid, but it's actually really funny! It only has 16 episodes, so it's a pretty quick drama. T* and I are almost done with it! The last 2 episodes come out next week!

If anyone's interested in watching You're Beautiful
please click: HERE

Okok, let's recap now since it's been a while since I've last updated. In the beginning of November it was both my mother's birthday and my bf's mother's birthday! Yay. Happy (now belated) Birthday to them both! I love my mommy lots ;] I bought her this Clinique gift set with a lot of the products that she uses and I bought my bf's mom leather gloves from Nordstroms.

Happy Birthday Mom! I love you :3
The cake was from an asian market by our house.
It was a chestnut cake. It was so good!

Happy Birthday to my bf's mom! :]
The cake was from Baskin Robins.
It was an ice cream cake, yum~

Speaking of birthdays, it was also my cousin's son's birthday (I never know what to call him.. my second cousin?) in September. Anyhow, the little trouble maker turned 8 :] I called him and asked him what he wanted for his birthday and surprisingly.. he told me he wanted books! Lol. I asked him what books and he told me The Diary of the Wimpy Kid and I had absolutely no idea what he was talking about, hahaha. I called Barnes and Nobles and asked them if they had that in stock and they informed me that they had it, it was a series, and that the 5th book just came out. I told them to put all 5 books on hold for me and that I'd go pick them up in 20-30 mins. Since I order all my books online through Amazon, I never realized how expensive books were when you purchased them in the store. The books cost me around 70$+? Lol, but it was worth it. He was very happy ;D

My aunt bought him this delicious chocolate cake.
It was sooo good~ I think he ate like 2 huge pieces! Lol.

That's it for birthdays, hahaha. I was over my bf's house one weekend and he randomly showed me all the stuff he purchased for his younger brother. I have no idea what sparked this sudden act of kindness, lol. His younger brother is off dorming at college so I guess you can say my bf misses him a little tiny bit, even if he will never admit it ;p He's coming back this Thanksgiving break so I guess he's in for a little suprise, hehe.

He got him this Gucci wallet. It's pretty nice.
I got my bf a Gucci wallet for his birthday last year.
I forgot to take a picture of it ;x

He got him 2 beanie hats from ALIFE.
The eyeballs one is sooo cute! I wanted to steal it :p

He got him 2 fitteds from ALIFE as well.
He also got him a hoodie that has a similar design to
the fitted on the right, but I didn't take a good picture
of it to shared, sorry ;[

Personally, I haven't really bought anything lately. I don't know if I mentioned it before, but I finally invest in a good curling iron! It's a 1 1/2 inch curing iron from Hot Tools. I love it. It works very well~ I haven't really gone clothes shopping for a little while.. the last things I purchased was probably this jacket from Forever21:

Patent Belted Plaid Jacket

I have yet to wear that jacket. It's really cute though and I really like it :} As I mentioned earlier in my entry, Thanksgiving is next week and I am excited! I love Thanksgiving because I love family gatherings and I love food! Hehe. Speaking of food, a while ago.. I made chicken parm for T* and I. It was delicious!

Chicken parm pasta! Yummy~

Since we're on the food topic.. I had this deeeeelicious crab cake at work! Omggg, it was so good. This company scheduled a lunch meeting with my doctor to discuss working together, etcetc. And, that company paid for lunch. The catering was aaamazing. I had.. salad with balsamic vinaigrette dressing, Thai noodles, chicken wrap, crab cake, and fresh fruits and homemade brownies for dessert!

Deeelicious crab cake~

As I was eating, I decided to take a picture of it and sent it to T* to make her extremely jealous LOL. So, I did and it worked :p lmao. She texted me back and gave me the middle finger via text, but little did she know.. I, being the bestestestest friend that I am, saved her a plate of food since we had so much left over. Sighh.

That's pretty much everything that's been going on. Oh and yes, Congratulations to the New York Yankees! Woooo~

M[CROWN]*

sorry for the late update~

2009-11-18T17:58:00.016-05:00

Hey everyone! WOW, I didn't update since September! Forgive me! I've been busy and lazy :x Well, I'm just going to do a quick post of some of the important things that happened~

CONGRATS TO THE NEW YORK YANKEES WINNING THEIR 27TH WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONSHIPS!!!! Hehe, Derek Jeter and I have the same hoodie! <3

You're Beautiful: It's the Korean Drama I've been watching and obsessing about! I'm so obsessed with this drama... I even bought an AUTOGRAPH signed CD of their OST from Korea by Jung Yong Hwa as Kang Shin Woo!!!! He's sooooo freaking cute~ (Don't worry, I also like JGS+LHK<3)[Special thanks to Andrea - andie_x@ soompi!]

Randomness: I finally got a new black bag from Urban Outfitters! Super cute, and I finally got a Marc Jacobs wallet! Hmm, what else? Oh, I finished all the Twilight Books (they were all amazing), and me, M*, and our other friend are going to watch the midnight showing of NEW MOON!!!!!!!! So freaking excited!!! I can't believe the day is almost here!

Bits & Pieces

2009-10-20T20:42:00.014-04:00

I absolutely hate the cold weather. It's only October and it's already hitting the high 40's and low 50's range. That's just ridiculous! Luckily, tomorrow and Thursday are in the high 60's low 70's. I think this is probably the last 2 days that will be nice for the rest of this year :( I'm gonna miss the autumn weather.. I'm gonna miss those days when it's still light out at 8PM. Nowadays it gets dark at like.. 6PM! : That's just not my cup of tea.

This was what it looked like outside when
I was driving home from work at 6:30PM!
At least the sky was pretty, lol.

So I haven't had the time to really go shopping lately due to my loads of work, but I have managed to pick up a couple of little things here and there :}

LashBlast by CoverGirl in Very Black
& Lineur Intense Brush Tip Liquid Eyeliner
by L'Oreal in Carbon Black

I have used LashBlast before and I really liked it. The brush is a a bit big which causes minor accidents here and there, but overall.. I really like it as a mascara. It's great for extra volume in your lashes :) This is my first time trying the Brush Tip Liquid Eyeliner by L'Oreal. I have used the Lineur Intense Felt Tip Liquid Eyeliner before though, and I really liked it. So I figured I'd give the brush a chance.

I also got this Styli-Style retractable eyeliner pencil in Black.
& F21 Oil Control Film

So far so good w/ the Styli-Style eyeliner. It glides on pretty smoothly and it stays on pretty well. It does smudge a bit if you apply it on your water-line, but I think any pencil liner will smudge within time if you apply it on your water-line. Anddd, F21's Oil Control Film is just simply oil blotting sheets from Forever21, obviously lol. Forever21 seems to be expanding their products to different ranges, hahaha. I just thought the blotting sheets were cute so I picked up a couple while I was at the store a while ago. It comes in a pack of 50 sheets, it's not expensive at all, and it comes in handy from time to time :] I also got a plaid shirt a while back that I never got to share:

It's very comfy ;D

My most recent visit to Forever21 was a failure. It's so hard to find stuff at the store sometimes because it's such a mess and I never know where anything is. After walking around the store a couple of times, I picked up 2 belts:

Rustic Braided Belt in Brown

Fab Elastic Braided Belt in Black

I love them both very much ;] I'm actually waiting for an order to come in the mail ;x I ended up helping my gf (who is currently studying abroad in Ghana) buy the vest she desperately wanted:

I ordered a couple of things and T* also ordered a couple of things. So! Hopefully I receive that package soon! :D That's about all my purchases lately. Like I said, I haven't really had the time to go shopping :\ BUT! Since it's freezing cold.. that means that the holiday season is right around the corner! That's just about the only thing I like about the cold season, hehe. Speaking of holidays, Halloween is only a week and a half away! My gfs and I are being Shipmate Cuties!

I got the image from "Halloween Unlimited", BUT!
I ordered the costume from Musotica, click: HERE
Promotional Codes: halloween2009 and/or freeship
I don't know if the codes can be combined, but try it out!

Ok, the costume only looks ultra-short on the model because she's probably like 5'7" or taller. I'm 5'3" so.. it really doesn't look that revealing at all, lol. It's actually really cute =) I really like it! I ordered it online and I got a 10% discount so, this costume only came out to be 35$! I was very pleased ;] lol. Unfortunately, I think this Halloween will be really really cold.. but either way, I hope we put these costumes to use =] I'll update you on how that goes!

I'll end this blog with the donut I got at work, lol ;p it was a nice treat. I actually don't even know who bought the box for my office, but.. free donut for me!

It was yummy :9

I hope everyone enjoys their Halloween! Have fun and be safe! Bundle up because it's cold- well.. it's cold here, lol ;p

Epic Failure

2009-10-04T15:00:00.019-04:00

So, I royally failed at keeping up with posting ever since my fall classes started (SORRY!). I haven't posted for more than a month, wow! I will try my best to make up for my lack of posting ;[ Since my last post, nothing much as been going on except school + work for me. I've been pretty busy. I have an essay due every Monday of my life for the rest of this semester. I have some form of quiz every Tuesday. And! I'm getting into exams, yay (not)! I cut down my working days to only 3 days a week: Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays.

Enough about the depressing part of my life, lmao, on to the fun part! ;p I obviously haven't gone shopping as much since classes started but, I do have some pictures that I've been meaning to share :] Remember how I stated that I was attempting to grow my nails out naturally and how I started using Sally Hassen's Natural Nail Growth Activator? Well, can I say.. SUCCESS? My nails got so long and they felt so healthy. So therefore I had to invest in pretty nail polish to do my nails in, duh!

For Audrey and Spontaneous by China Glaze
It seems like For Audrey is very popular.
I recommend both! Both colors are gooorgeous!

For Audrey by China Glaze

Spontaneous by China Glaze

My nails BEFORE:
This was how short my nails usually are.
They usually chip before they get any longer.
(Heart Throb by O∙P∙I topped with Strawberry Sharbet by Color Club)

My nails NOW:
Look at how much longer my nails grew!
I was so happy ;D
(Spontaneous by China Glaze)

What a big difference! Unfortunately, shortly after the last picture my nails did start to chip because I stopped using Sally Hansen's Natural Nail Growth Activator after I started painting my nails with different colors. So, I cut them short and I'm starting over again :D It's okay. It's refreshing to have short nails again, haha. I can finally feel my keyboard! And, I have text a whole lot faster, lol.

Aside from my wonderful success with my nails, I finally gave in and purchased my first piece of jewelry from DSK (Steph)! It's gorgeous and I love it! Steph makes beauuutiful things. Check her out page and show her some love. DSK Jewelry, click: HERE

The packaging was so cute.

These are the earrings that I purchased!
(Sterling Silver Key & lil AB Star)

Last Friday I stopped by the mall to check out Forever21. My girlfriend who is studying abroad in Ghana spotted a really cute vest online and wanted me to see if it was in the store. Before I entered the store, there was a girl working there who stood right in the front modeling this obnoxiously huge bow on her head. I just had to take a picture of her so I asked her for permission. She said yes :] She was so sweet.

It seems like big obnoxious hair/head accessories are in?
Hahaha. I showed her a picture of the red bow I purchased
a while back and she loved it!

I didn't find the vest my girlfriend wanted, unfortunately :\ It's so hard to find things in that store sometimes so I always resort to online shopping when it comes to Forever21, lol. Since her vest wasn't in the store.. I sense a batch of clothing coming my way ;p I will keep you posted on that! Hahaha.

Despite my gruesome schedule during the weekdays, I still manage to always spend 1 day with my boyfriend on the weekends :] (T* is probably making the barfing motion lolll) I went to see my boyfriend yesterday and he picked up a little something from the Marc Jacobs Special Item Store:

He got us matching Watch Bracelets.
I'm sorry if the picture is dark :[

Mirror Coin purse in Gunmetal

Plane Keyring
I thought this was so cute, I don't know why lol.

Of course he never fails to pick himself up a couple things as well, haha:

Woven Frequncy Plaid Scarf in Maroon Multi

Love Coco Tee

Ride to Live Tee

I love presents ;} hehe. I can't wait til Christmas time! Ask T*, I've been bugging her about Christmas already when it's only October! Halloween's coming up soon! I'm not as crazy about Halloween, but a holiday is a holiday :) I'm curious as to see what people will dress up as! My girlfriends and I already have an idea! After Halloween is another one of my favoritest holidays, Thanksgiving. Food = LOVE, (T* rotfl). Then shortly after all these holidays will be New Years Eve + New Years! Can you believe it? It's almost 2010! Another year just flew right by me. I'll save all the New Years talk for when New Years actually comes ;p

Recently, I've picked up reading again. Since T* has officially come this book worm.. I've decided to read on my spare time as well. I started up on my Twilight series, which I finally purchased a long with my textbooks for class. It's a pretty easy read I must say. It's very fast and pretty entertaining. The 2nd movie, New Moon, comes out November 20th? I believe. I can't wait. I'm 1/2 way done with the 2nd book so I'll definitely be done before the movie comes out. Books are always better than movies, in my opinion at least. I've also finished collecting all the Harry Potter books! I ordered the last book, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, a couple of days ago and it came in the mail yesterday. I also ordered Underworld: Rise of the Lycans the book because I enjoyed the movie so I figured I should read the book.

So this will be the end of my post! I miss blogging! I will try my best to keep posting. I don't want to make any promises ;x lol. I hope this marks the start of me making up for the month that I've been MIA, lol.

Take care everyone and bundle up because it's getting a bit chilly.

we will always remember

2009-09-11T10:38:00.003-04:00

We, at WLOVEXO, will like to pay their respects for this day. Today is the 8th anniversary of September 11th. God Bless America.

2009-09-09T20:12:00.009-04:00

Yes, I'm so corny, but I decided to post a short blog entry today because today is September 9th, 2009. CRAZY, huh? I remembered when it was last year, August 8th, 2008.. when I watched the Summer Olympics at Beijing [Michael Phelps<3].

"You are my life now." Anyways, I know I'm really behind, but I just finished reading Twilight. I read the first 9 chapters back in January. I had jury duty so I just read during my time there. School started yesterday so I decided to continue reading during my free time so while I was at school, I read 3 chapters...got home and read 4 more chapters. Then, today, I finished the book. WOOT! (If you have noticed, I can be really lazy, but for some reason, I'm becoming a bookworm just recently.) In my opinion, the book was A LOT better than the movie. M* and I never knew heard of Twilight until we saw commericals, and we heard how "amazing" it was so we decided to watch it after one week of its release. Oh boy, that night I fell in love with Edward Cullen<3. I was in this "Twilight mode" after watching the movie.. I saved pictures, had a desktop pic of Edward and Bella dancing at prom, then bought the box set, and even bought the DVD. hahaha. After watching Twilight the second time, it was just okay. I mean I still do love Edward Cullen. LOL. Now, I'm on to reading "New Moon". I want to finish it before the movie comes out. I don't want to get disappointed because what if the movie doesn't reach my expectations? I also saw those trailers on youtube so I guess I have to wait till November 20th for me to decide.

"Is it not enough to have a long and happy life with me?"

Gorgeous, right?

heart ♥ breaker

2009-09-06T16:55:00.010-04:00

Sorry for your breaking hearts [mainly, M* :D] and not updating all the time. (wow sorry for the cheesiness LOL]. I get lazy, but I'll try to update as much as I can. My real intention was blogging this HUGE post with all the purchases I bought with some kpop thoughts ;D

Recent purchases within a month(?):

Boots are a must have!! I bought 2 pairs within the last 2 days. O.O"

BP. 'Lovey' Stretch Boot - [click here for better view]

I took advantage of the Labor Day Weekend sale and I ordered these AE boots online. I will post a picture when I recieve my package. Woot woot.

I got a coral red tank top from Nordstroms, Forever 21 oily sheets [hehe, thanks M*], VS makeup remover, and this plaid shirt at Forever 21. I'm sure I'm leaving stuff out, but that's all I can remember haha.

Now, I'm going to show you all my kpop collection. I've been collecting for over 2 years now. My recent purchases are 2NE1 CD, G-dragon Solo CD, and AADBSKIII + poster.

So I finished Triple a week ago, and it was alright, i guess? I mean the first 8 eps? were really good and then, the storyline just went blah. Ohoh, and i'll try to finish Partner soon? lmao. Now, I'm watching "My Fair Lady", and I just watched to ep. 4. I'll probably watch ep. 5+6 after this post. haha. So in ep. 3, Kang Hye Na (Yoon Eun Hye ) wears this really nice outfit!

M* is baaack :D

2009-08-21T22:14:00.013-04:00

I'm baaack! Not that I went anywhere fun ;\ lol. I've just been busy with work. August is obviously my last month before I start classes again so I just wanted to get in as much hours at work as possible. I start class September 1st :[ this summer went by sooo fast and I did absolutely nothing. But anywho, I'm just going to share some pictures and recap some things.

Heart Throb by O∙P∙I topped with Strawberry Sharbet by Color Club

This was the color of my nails in the beginning of August. I was really bored so I finally decided to color my nails. I'm sure everyone thinks it's not a big deal, but it is to meee! Lol. I normally always get tips done because my nails simply would chip/break at a certain point of their growth. But! I decide to give my nails another shot so I started using Sally Hansen's Natural Nail Growth Activator. I guess I can say that it works! :) I apply it every morning/afternoon and every night. My nails have been feeling more healthy and they definitely have not been chipping! :D You can most likely buy this at any drugstore and it shouldn't be too expensive. I'll say around 5-8$? It's worth it if it works! =)

August 19th was one of my gf's birthday! Unforunately she had to leave to go to Ghana to study abroad from August 15th-December 13th, so we decided to celebrate her birthday/have a goodbye dinner with her a week before she was leaving. T* and I bought her this care package to bring to Ghana. Aren't we such sweet friends? ;p

This thing had everything in it from tampons to bandaids to qtips. You name it, lol.

Not only did we get her a care package.. we also got her the Elsa Peretti Open Heart Bracelet from Tiffany & Co. It was just a cute little something we wanted to give her to symbolize our friendship ;] I got T* the Elsa Peretti Open Heart Earrings for her 21st birthday anddd my parents got me the Elsa Peretti Open Heart Ring for my birthday. So, all 3 of us have hearts! :D

Elsa Peretti Open Heart Earring

Elsa Peretti Open Ring

We had dinner with her at Joe's American Bar & Grill. T* and I preordered some cupcakes from this new bakery at Short Hills Mall called Brownie Points. The cupcakes were alright. Nothing out of the ordinary, but hey.. cupcakes are always cute!

Left: Vanilla Cupcake with Chocolate buttermilk frosting ; Right: Carrot Cake Cupcake

Happy birthday, girl! Hope you have a safe/fun trip to Ghana! Best of luck!

(Red Velvet Cupcake)

So the other day at work my manager decided to show me how to order from Domino's Pizza through the internet. It was quite interesting lol. After you click a bunch of things to indicate what you want to eat they process your order and they show you this meter. So, I sat there and stared at the meter for the longest time while my manager explained to me how the damn thing worked lmao. So apparently the meter will tell you exactly what those people are doing with your food.. for exampe, a bar of the meter will fill up and it'll state that they are "baking your pizza" and then another bar will fill up after that and it'll state that "your pizza is now being boxed", and then a third bar will fill up stating that "your pizza is now being delivered", etcetcetc lolll. It was pretty neat and supposidly by the time the bar gets filled to the end the Domino's delivery guy should be at your door shortly, and surely.. he was! My manager order the Chicken Alfredo Pasta Bowl which came with a little treat on the side which she gave me ;D

Too bad I wasn't that hungry that day. Otherwise, I would've definitely loved to
try the pasta bowl too. It looked delishhh.

The little treat that came with my manager's pasta!
The Chocolate Lava Crunch Cake. It was tiny but sooo good ;9

Aside from all my crazy spendings on clothes, accessories, and food.. I recently developed a mini little obession for fishys? Lmao. Ever since my manager and I have been remodeling our office I've been into fishys! We're getting these cute little round fish bowls for my office that you can mount on the wall. It's pretty neat:

I currently have 2 fishes of my own and my mother has 2 as well, lol. I was really bored last Sunday so I was like "why not go to Petco and get myself a fishy", sooo I did! :p I definitely wouldn't be able to keep up with cleaning a filtered tank, so I decided against getting a big tank. Instead, I got a betta fish which can survive in an unfiltered tank/bowl. That's what the Petco employee suggested me. I heard betta fish are pretty easy to mantain and pretty easy going fish all in all.

Meet my first fishy, Gucci! He's been pretty good for the week :]

Even though you can't put betta fish together (because they'll fight) I just felt like my fish was lonely, hahaha. So, I went back to Petco the following Tuesday and got another fish. I got a seperate little round bowl for it at Walmart. This time, I got a girl haha. The female betta fish are not 1/2 as pretty as the male bettas, but this one stood out to me for some reason so I couldn't resist but to bring her home.

Her name is Prada. I know my picture is small, but she has pretty stripes
that run down both sides of my body. She's gorgeous =]

I bought my mom a fish the day I bought Prada because my mom was home this whole summer and I can just imagine how boring that was.. and plus, when I got Gucci she fed him nonstop so I figured I'd just go pick up a fish for her so she can feed her own lolll. I love my mom. She's so cute.

She named her fish Chanel. It's also a female. Prada and Chanel
were the 2 prettiest female fishys at Petco so I just had to buy them :p

This is my mom's 2nd fish. We have yet to really name him, lol.

I took my mom to Petco on Thursday to see if we needed to buy anything else for our fish and instead.. we ended up buying her 2nd fish, lmaooo. He's sooo pretty when he flares out his tail. He's a double tail betta so he was a bit more expensive than the other bettas I bought, but my mom didn't care lol. Aside from buying him, I also bought a fish for my office (I promise this is the last fish for a whiiile) ;x

This is a male betta. I thought he was really unique
because he's almost transparent!
So, I bought him and put him in a little bowl on our TV stand at the office.
I can't wait til our wall mounted fish bowls come! More fishy shopping :x

OK! On to today. Can I say.. T.G.I.F.?! This has been one of the longest weeks everrr and I don't know whyyy. T* came over for dinner and we both decided to cook something. I made Kimchi Jigae and T* decided to try this new recipe she found. It wasn't anything hard but it was definitely something new? Lol. She made.. Cheez-it Chicken nuggets!

(I omitted the sour cream step. I'll try it the orignal way one day!)

It was totally the weirdest combination of food to eat, buuut they were both delicious! Try the Cheez-it Chicken! I know it sounds really odd, but it's actually pretty good! It would be a great/easy dish for a get together with a lot of friends or something :]

It was kinda odd to see T* doing anything kitchen related ;x she usually doesn't do stuff like that so I guess I can consider myself lucky that my bestfriend actually cooked something for me for once, lmao. This is kinda random/not exactly related, but I just wanted to share:

My dad made this for me when he came home from work.
It's a very simple clam/muscle soup and I looove it.
I don't have the recipe for it yet, but I defintely will learn it one day!

Wow, ok. I'll stop talking now, lmao. I guess this entry makes up for the time that I've been away. Sorry! I'll definitely try to post a bit more often. I don't know how my lifestyle will be when classes start but I will try my best! I can finally sleep in and not wake up at 7AM for work. I can't wait. My boyfriend starts school next week! So, this Sunday will be our last "Summer Sunday" together! :[ Buttt, we'll obviously still see one another over the weekend :D

A little bit of everything :]

2009-08-04T23:02:00.009-04:00

Today was a beautiful day. It finally felt like summer! It was 88º sunny :D I got to sleep in because I didn't have work today, hehe. I woke up and had to go pay my tuition for my fall semester of college. Then, I went to the mall with my parents because my dad had to adjust his watch strap. Before I get more into what I did today, let me just recap a little bit :)

Last week some time, I had to go request for a my transcript from the community college I took my summer course in. On the way back I picked up a drink from Fusion Ti because it was just way too humid that day and I was craving for a refreshment. Every time I go there I always order either the tradition milk tea with tapioca or a mango green tea without tapioca. I decided to go w/ the green tea this time.

Mango Green tea. It's my favorite. It's so good!

Then, I went to the mall with my mom to buy my dad a birthday present. We decided to get him a Citizen Eco-Drive watch. That took forever but the lady who helped us was very nice and had a lot of patience, lol. After we purchased the gift, we went home.

That following Saturday was my dad's birthday, (Happy birthday, Daddy!) My aunt, my dad's oldest sister, treated us to lunch. Then we split and my parents and I went grocery/cake shopping. We decided to buy a cake from the Asian market. After we finished food shopping, we dropped everything off at home and just shopped around the local stores. By the time we came home the second time, it was dinner time. We had dinner at my grandma's house. It's always nice to be with family<3

My dad's birthday cake. It was really good!

&!OMG, AHHH. The day before my dad's birthday.. T* and I received our PACKAGE! T* and I placed an order for 2 bow headbands in red on July 21 and it came on July 31! My mother called me while I was at work and told me that a little box arrived for "WLOVEXO"! I was beyond excited!

My bow. It's sooo cute! I love it.

CREDIT TO: QUEENIE

I bought the bow from this girl on esty.com: Astraea

(Bow color: BRIGHT RED)

Ok, done recapping. So, today at the mall.. we went straight to the get my dad's watch strap adjusted first. That took like 10 mins lol. After that my parents and I had a quick lunch at the food court.

My lunch. Philly Steak Deluxe from Charley's, yum!

After lunch I just walked around and did a little bit of shopping ;x I picked up a couple of things from Forever21 and Sephora that I've been meaning to get for a while. I also picked up a couple of nail polishes.

Forever21

I've been looking for beaters for sooo long! I finally found some!
I got 2 in white and 1 in black.
&
I got the Fab Ribbed Crochet Beret in black!

I also got the J'aime Paris Tank ;D I love it!

Sephora

Shu Uemura 24K Gold Limited Edition eyelash curler.
I must say that it's expensive for an eyelash curler, but def worth it.
It works wonders. If you want a good eyelash curler, invest in one of these.

Take The Day Off Makeup Remover from Clinique.
I didn't like the Sephora brand one that I bought before, so I'm gonna give this one a shot.
My Beauty Insiders card ranked up enough points for a sample product,
so I just got a little sample of Too Faced Shadow Insurance lol. It's so small and cute.

Strawberry Sharbet by Color Club,
What a Broad, Sephora by O∙P∙I,
Heart Throb by O∙P∙I,
Nail Strengthener by O∙P∙I,
&
Hi Maintenance by ESSIE.

That's all! ;x lol. On my way home I was listening to the radio and the radio reported that tomorrow will have severe thunderstorming. Wonderful. Just wonderful. I'm so excited, (sigh). And ontop of the tunderstorm, I have work! Yippe.. asdfghjkl;'!

2PM, 2NE1, DBSK, OH MY!

2009-08-01T16:41:00.010-04:00

So today is a beautiful day, and I'm home. AWESOME! O.Ov but anyways, I love korean music and I'm just going to talk to you about 2PM, 2NE1, and DBSK<3

2PM; I've been a fan since they first debuted, and they recently came out with their show, "Wild Bunny". I don't know why the show is called that actually, but who cares. They are seriously sooooo funny. OMG. Only 2 episodes have been out, and I'm already loving the show. HAHAH. So episode 2 shows the audience the wrap up of episode 1 when they sneaked out of their apartment without their manager knowing. So the next, idk 45mins?, showed a photoshoot and their concept was "sexy" but the staff picks the "best picture/s".

Artwork title: Toshioh's Revival
(BEWARE; THESE PICTURES ARE HILARIOUS!!!!!!!!)

(super adorable comments while showing Wooyoung's pictures)
Jay: "Aigoooo~"
Junsu: "Oh Wooyoungah, close your legs, please!" [LMAO!!!!]
Wooyoung: "It's cute, it's cute!" [OMGGG, YES YOU ARE!]

Taec, you're greatly missed in this episode!

This episode was SO funny... I was crying. THAT'S how funny it was! Even Jay thought it was funny!

I love this .gif because of 3 reasons.

1) He's wearing all white. Yummy.

2) He's wearing a Yankee's fitted. Yummy.

3) Because he's hot. Yummy<3

...and since he was like half naked in this photoshoot.. here's a cute convo with the PD yuhjah.

LMAO, really, Jay? ;]

This show is seriously enjoyable with cute sound effects plus with 7 adorable guys! I am looking forward to the next episode<3

2NE1: "LETS PLAY!"; I usually just listen to boy groups, but this year is the year of girl groups. Literally. And, 2NE1 is by far, the best. I enjoy their music and their sense of fashion. They also have a show called "2NE1 TV".. well it's all YG family, but they have their own segment. And, I really like this picture~ 2NE1 FTW!<3

DBSK: Always Keep the Faith; You guys probably know what's going on with them right now. [LMAO, M*, I'm sure you're rolling right now!] When I first heard this news, I was quite shocked so I immediately went to their main thread on Soompi. I'm okay now after reading what's going on, and I know things will be okay. DBSK FOREVER<3

Hurricane city

2009-07-27T22:14:00.011-04:00

I went to spend my normal Sunday with my boyfriend in NY. We watched The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. Can you say looooong movie?! I liked it more than I disliked it, so it's good in my book. After the movie and lunch he decided that we should spend the BEAUTIFUL DAY shopping in the city! So, we got ready and headed out. It was indeed really nice out.. probably the nicest it has been in a while. It wasn't too hot, nor was it cold or anything. It was just right. We hopped on the subway and headed to the city. The train was paaacked and it took forever! After we got off, he realized that we took the train that was further away from the store so we had to walk a bit. It was fine since it was nice out. We got to the store and there was a little line waiting outside.

The Marc Jacobs Special Items Store is literally the size of my room. It's always packed with people from all over! We had to wait for a couple of people to leave the store before we got to enter because it was just that small and that packed. Finally, it was our turn to go in. When you enter this tiny little store, you see an assortment of different colors of everything on selves or in little crates. Everything's clustered together and people are shoving around trying to get from one end of the little store to the other end of the little store, lol. I have a minor case of closter phobia so I tried to stay away from the shoving people, lol. As my boyfriend and I picked out some stuff that we wanted to purchase, I look outside the glass door and I see that the BEAUTIFUL DAY has officially turned into a monster. It was hurricaning outside, no joke. I stared at my boyfriend as my jaw dropped to the floor and the only thought that ran through my mind was.. "we are umbrella-LESS!" Thankfully, the Marc Jacobs Special Items Store sold umbrellas, which were flying off the selves at this point. It was 18$ + tax for an umbrella but who caaaares?! Do you want to get hurricaned on? I don't! So, it was the perfect opportunity for me to buy a cute umbrella ;] Too bad all the umbrellas there weren't cute. I rumaged through the endless selves of umbrellas with the same exact patterns in different colors and I finally came across ONE leopard print umbrella, ONE. And that ONE leopard print umbrella just had to be OPENED (asdfghjkl;'). I was just unsatisfied with the fact that I had to spend 18$ + tax on an umbrella that I didn't like, so my boyfriend reached up on a taller self and magically pulled out a brand new unopened leopard print umbrella. He is my hero :D I love leopard print. That umbrella was just a must have because at this point, the nasty hurricane was going to pass at any moment, but I didn't care (hehehe). Here are the things that my boyfriend and I purchased while being stuck in the miniature store during a hurricane:

Leopard Umbrella (love<3)

City Overprint Tee in Paris
I got this for my boyfriend. I kinda want one myself now, lol :x

City Overprint Tee in London
My boyfriend actually got this a while back, but I thought I'd share it lol.

London Cartoon Face Tee in Blue
I bought this for myself.

Charm Necklace in Lucky
It's so cute :D

Cotton Stripe Belt in Grey/Red and Navy/Purple
My boyfriend bought these for himself.

After the disgusting rain passed by, we went to Magnolia Bakery right on the corner. This little bakery is 1/2 the size of the Marc Jacobs Special Items Store and on a good day usually there's a line that runs around the corner of people waiting to get pastries. Since the weather was hideous, there was no line! So, it was the perfect chance to snag a cupcake or two :] I was so excited.

The box that fits 2 cupcakes!

Of course I had to take a menu :p

The 2 cupcakes my boyfriend and I picked.
Left: Red Velvet ; Right: Chocolate Buttermilk with sprinkles!

The infamous Velvet Red Cupcake.
I actually thought this cupcake was alright? But my boyfriend liked it a lot.

I am determined to go back and try every single one. One day, one day, hahaha. I ate the Chocolate Buttermilk one when I got home by myself and I actually really liked that one. It wasn't one of the "Special Cupcakes", but whatever. The Chocolate Buttermilk Cupcake is special to me, lol. The "Special Cupcakes" are 3$ each. The Red Velvet one was a special one, lol. The Buttermilk Cupcakes are 2.50$. They have a lot of other cute desserts. I will definitely be stopping by that store again.

Aside from my spontaneous spendings at the Marc Jacobs Store and at Magnolias, one of my goals that day was to get a rubber protector thingy for my new iTouch. My cousin gave me this iTouch back in April or May, but I didn't open it until a couple of days ago. I guess I was just lazy, but I thought school was starting in a month so I should get used to this thing before it's too late. That goal was a failure, hahaha. If the weather stayed nice, we would've eventually made our way from Bleeker St. to SOHO to Chinatown probably, but noooooo. That obviously didn't happen because I don't have my iTouch protector :[

It's so beautiful, lol :x
The only con about the iTouch is the back gets scratches easily.
I think I already have a light scratch on it and I just opened it.

That was my Sunday in the city. I really, really, really, really, really hope that the weather starts getting better. I say this everytime, but really.. it's just so depressing to check weather.com and see that it's going to "t-storm" every single day of forever. So much for summer, really. One more month of summer vacay. Pray for nice weather! I'll leave this entry with a pair of pumps I saw last Friday when I was on my way to dinner with T*:

GUESS 'Bukana' Pumps in Leopard
They are gorgeous and they also come in Black or Purple Velvet.
AND! They are on sale at Nordstroms for 66.90$

Rain, rain, go away.. PLEASE!

2009-07-23T18:32:00.007-04:00

Once again, it's raining! Can someone please explain to me why the weather just wants to torture us? Thank goodness I don't have work today, not that I work outside or anything but this weather just makes me not want to leave home, period. I slept in and then decided to get up and make some pasta. I actually made the same exact pasta last night because Wednesdays are officially "Pasta Night" but I ended up packing 1/2 of it up for T* and the other 1/2 for my boyfriend. Sooo, since it was really good pasta, I decided to make it again for myself ;p

Penne ala Vodka w/ chicken (yum!)

And because I felt like I was totally wasting my gas by just baking pasta, I decided to bake some cupcakes too, lol (this is what rainy weather does to you).

Pillsbury vs. Betty Crocker
Personally, I prefer Pillsbury for cupcakes?
Betty Crocker banana cake is really good though!

Pink cupcake! Isn't it cute?

Chocolate cupcake. This was from a while back.

"Vanilla" cupcake, lol. Also from a while back.

I enjoy cooking :] I'm not great at it, but I enjoy trying new things and learning. My boyfriend is my chef, hehe. He cooks for me all the time, but recently I've been cooking so he's taking a little break and enjoying my amazing cooking skills :D

So, the 90% of the time that I don't cook, I eat out lol. As of right now I work every Mon, Weds, and Fri and usually my co-workers and I order out for lunch at some place near by. When the weather's nice, I'll usually volunteer to drive down the street to the Dunkin Donuts near by to pick up a quick brunch for everyone.

Dunkin Donuts Turkey Cheddar & Bacon Flatbread
This is what I always get. It's so good!

Dunkin Donuts Hash Browns
(They're only 99 cents when you add them onto your flatbread combo!)

Dunkin Donuts Iced Tea

That's usually my pick for a quick and easy brunch when I'm at work, but since the weather has been nasty, no one wants to go out to pick anything up so we resort to any place that delivers, lol. My office manager and my boss seem to love Quiznos. Quiznos is alright. It's nothing special to me. I'm usually a chicken person, but for some reason I wanted to try this:

Quiznos Black Angus Steak Sub w/ lettuce
I'm sticking with chicken next time ;x
And personally I hate Pepsi, but I had no choice.
Coca Cola FTW!

Ok! Enough about food, lol. I was at my boyfriend's house this past weekend and I asked him if I could take a picture of all his hats and he managed to dig up a "few".

These are all the hats that just sit in his closet everyday.
It's funny how he owns more hats than I do shoes, but he
rarely wears any of them, (sigh).

Kidrobot Death From Above
This is one of my favorite hats that he has because
it's a big smile with lots of teeth :D

My boyfriend bought himself this Supreme Duffle Bag in Royal.
I like it! I've always wanted to get myself a duffle bag, but I
never found a nice one that I really wanted.

A while back, I was at Flushing with my boyfriend and he took me to Toy Qube. He pointed at this little box on the counter and told me to buy one for him. It was only like 4-5$ so why not? It was the Kidrobot Super Mini Keychains Series 4. He opened it immediately when we got outside to find out what he got because it's a blindbox. When he opened it, he revealed to me that he had gotten the plain gray one called "Slate". Unsatisfied with what my boyfriend just got, I went back in the store determined to get another one and so I did. I came back out and I opened it and I got.. THE NINJA! :o I gave it to my boyfriend and told him he had to love them all equally, LOL. A week or so afterwards, I was at the local mall with T* and I went into the store Metropark to check out a couple of things and I saw the same little box of toys on the counter so I just HAD to buy 2. I paid and I opened my first box immediately and I got.. THE MUMMY. It must've been beginners luck, hahaha. I just got the 2 rarest ones. I opened up the second one I bought and I got the robot in a bear suit. They're so cute. And for a while, I was addicted to buying them, but I stopped :[ I really wanted the astro one too.. because it's holding a little ice cream cone.

That's all for now. I'm hoping that we'll see better weather in August so that I can go to Six Flags at least once and hit up the beach maybe one more time.

Chanel on Giorgio Armani building

2009-07-21T21:13:00.010-04:00

I was looking through the internet where I came across a article about a famous artist being arrested. Zev is a french graffiti artist known for putting shadows on street poles and benches and also putting drip marks on certain logos on buildings, which is a great scenery and interesting to view. Zev was caught putting up a Chanel sign on a Giorgio Armani building in china. He was caught at 3 am and was arrested for vandalism. The Feds say he is being charged big bucks for staining the building considering he said he only used water paint which comes off easily. He has been "bombing" all over New York and Paris for sometime now and it has never been this serious. The many artist doing this know the risk of what can happen, but the thrill of putting your art up on a worldwide public view can easily make people ponder who has done it, recognizing your fame and talent.

Summer rain

2009-07-20T18:30:00.034-04:00

< This is what the majority of the summer of 2009 has looked like. Check weather.com, I'm not lying. It's great, (not)! I've gone to the beach once and visited the pool no more than 5x. Luckily I soak in the sun quick so I managed to get somewhat of a nice tan. Because I am incapable of doing any outdoor activities, I have no choice but to resort to any type of activities indoors. Now what better indoor fun is there than.. SHOPPING! YES. Because of this nasty weather, I've done nothing but flush my hard earned $ down the toilet and I will share a couple of items that I've bought! :D

Aside from my random sporadic spendings at random places, I've also gotten a few presents from my boyfriend. A month ago he stopped by the Marc Jacobs Special Items Store and he decided to pick up a little something for me (;

Small Canvas Jacobs Tote in Blue
(He got me the big Purple a while back)

Paris Je T'aime Charm Necklace

He also got T* something for her birthday.

Okk. That's the end of my spendings/earnings for now. Forever21 package coming in sometime this week for T* and I. Can't wait! Pics of that will be posted later.

Ohh! I went to see Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince this weekend when my cousin came down to visit me and I must say, the movie was just alright. I mean, it wasn't bad? But, it wasn't exactly good. Let's just say it was a bit disappointing because it was vague. Sooo, I decided to read the book! I've had this book for ages and I've just been neglecting it because of my laziness.

Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince
(I recommend people to read the book. The book is just 91376037x better!)

With a month and two weeks left, I hope everyone's enjoying their summer despite of this disgusting weather.

T-shirts for the summer ;)

2009-07-19T15:55:00.013-04:00

Summer is officially here and I would like to ask what are all the guys wearing? The shirt you are wearing is the second thing a person sees after your face, so a good shirt would mean a good impression. We all have been in the position where we stand looking at our closet wondering to ourselves "what we are going to wear today," right? Well we all know putting an outfit together is a hard and difficult progress because to dress well is to feel confident about your selves. Letting others know that you can dress means a higher ego boost for yourself and a step in the ladder of feeling good.

For me the best way to put it together is through simplicity than through contrast. In the summer times I love wearing plain, simple, solid color shirts. It's a cheap investment and very fashionable if you know how to wear it. Let's start with the overly abused plain White T-shirt. I am pretty aware that we all have worn a plain White T-shirt before and have thought nothing of it, but a White T-shirt can also be a fashion statement! I love wearing White T-shirts because it is simple, it keeps you cool from the sun, and it isvery cheap! But to spice up my outfit I always and always accessorize.

The different types of white T-shirt is endless and people might not even think of that. There is the Henley shirt which is the regular round neck. There is the ringer Tee which has a thick outer layer on the sleeves of the shirt and around the neck. Than there is the New and favorite V-neck shirt (which is my favorite!) But how long the V in the shirt gives us a lot of options. Girls! You guys are allowed to wear White T-shirts also! The tight Long V on a white T shirt is very sexy. Everyone knows that the accessory you wear makes up your whole outfit. The bland white T-shirt is the paint canvas for your outfit! Enhance your outfit with accessories (for me personally i love wearing bracelets.) A necklace, a bracelet, a bag, a pair of sunglasses, a hat and even a presentable belt is a huge factor in a outfit. Accessorizing is very important for those who want to look great under the radar. At first glance no one ever realizes the accessory but for the people who do scope you out and scan you, they will know the deal is about your plain white T- shirt. We should all enjoy the summer weather with a simple clean look and always keep in mind every little item of clothes counts.

Yay, first post (:

2009-07-18T14:01:00.015-04:00

FML. I wrote a long ass entry and it got deleted. :(

Here we go again. So this is my first post (I was threaten to post or else, M* would make another blog. DAMN YOU) So anyways, this is going to be a really random entry. Here we go. hahah.

HISTORY of WLOVE: So you may be curious why we name our blog "WLOVE".. no, it's not because "W" is our favorite letter, here's what happened. Several years ago, Prison Break was really popular and I found out the main character's name was Wentworth Miller. We both thought that the name was really funny so when we were watching "Pride and Prejudice", we would say "WENTWORTHHHHH~" in a British accent. We were dying of laughter and literally rolling on the floor because it was so funny. So we've been calling each other that ever since. So now you know ;]

Anyways, so I work at a dentist office and I was stretching since it was a long day. All of a sudden, I see my co-worker taking a picture of me with her camera phone. I'm thinking 2 things: "NOOOOOOOO~ DELETE" and "DAMN, you're so quick!". She even posted this fabulous picture of me on facebook. HOW EMBARASSING O.O" But it was all jokes and fun~

Anyways so I love watching Korean dramas, and I'm currently watching 2 called Triple and Partner. I'm also watching a Taiwanese Drama called "Romantic Princess" (WU CHUN<3).

These two screencaps are from Ep. 8. The first picture.. his real name is Song Joong Ki as Ji Poong Ho. He was looking for Lee Haru (the main girl that he likes) because he won the gold medal in Speed Skating. She wasn't at the skating rink because she injured herself and went back to her hometown in the countryside so I thought this screencap was so cute because he was so worried. And he won the gold medal just for her. AW ;]

And the second picture is JaeWon? I think. I don't know his real name, but I thought this screencap was cute because he's holding his toothbrush LOL. (Screencaps by me ;])

Saving the best for last. Last night, a bunch of my guy friends and 2 of my girlfriends went to the Yankee game. IT WAS A LOT OF FUN. Great energry and we sat at the bleacher seats. I'm a HUGE Yankee fan, and this was the second game I've been to at the new Yankee Stadium. I didn't get a chance to go to the old stadium so I guess this makes up for it ;] But anyways, we were losing 3-2 against the Detriot Tigers until Mark Teixeira hit a 3-run homerun. OMG. The crowd went WILD. This little boy in front of us was giving everyone high fives. hahaha. The only sucky thing that happened last night was it was raining like crazy. Thank god it didn't rain when me and my 2 girlfriends went to the club. We thought the club would suck but it turned out to be pretty decent. I had a banging night ;0]

Derek Jeter aka my husband ;]

WOW, long entry! (I HOPE YOU'RE HAPPY, M*) Looking forward to our Forever 21 package to come soon so we'll post that asap.
