Makeup Haul

2009-08-29T15:38:00.011-04:00

Needed some new concealer since I ran out. I heard good things about BeneFITs Boiing so I went to Shoppers to pick it up. Somehow I ended up spending almost $80 on some makeup. All of the No7 cosmetics were 50% off so I couldn't resist.
Here's what I got as well as my review:

No 7 Maximum Volume mascara in Black - Liked this mascara, I really liked the brush and the stayability (Is that a word? oh well it is now) didn't smudge. Got this 50% off ($6.65)

No 7 Stay Perfect Shadow Palette in Cappuccino - really like this eyeshadow, smooth and easy to blend and from what I saw didn't crease. Very neutral so it will be good for day time. I added some black shadow for a more dramatic look for night. Purchased for 50% off.

BeneFIT Boi-ing Concealer #1 - really love this. Very smooth and full of moisture. Covers really well

Revlon ColourStay eyeliner in Black - LOVE THIS, finally an eyeliner that will stay put and wont smudge. Stayed on my waterline too. Comes with a little sharpener on the end. I haven't used it yet but that's really convenient

Maybelline ColourSensational Lipstick in Born with It -(pic is a different kind but its the same colour) LOVE THIS, Ive been scared to wear lipstick all these years because of such a harsh look they used to give. This formula is moisturizing and just opaque enough to mask my lip colour and give a nude look. Great with smokey eyes

CG Tru Blend Microminerals Blush in Shimmering Sands - Very sheer and natural looking. Wouldn't be good if you like your blush to really show up. I just like something natural and pretty so this is perfect for me.

As you can read I'm very happy with my finds. I'm excited to play around with the makeup a bit more.

Okay a Real Post

New apt layout

and a new layout. I just used a template cause Im lazy haha. I don't really know what the banner is all about, but oh well. Maybe Ill make my own one day... probably not.

So my life is EXTREMELY busy right now. We're moving to a bigger better apartment April 1st because the ppl upstairs are so loud and the walls here are thin because Its an older building. The new apartment is on the 7th floor, has a balcony, a pool and way better security. Im excited!! so anyway, Ive been packing and painting plus homework/studying. Next week I have no tests at all (which is rare). That takes some stress off cause I can focus on packing/studying etc. After this week tho school is going to be HELL. Sooo many tests/assignments/practicals and then when thats over I have my comprehensive exams the last week of school (120 multiple choice exams for each subject on everything we have learned in 2 years) for example Monday - histo, Tues- chem, Wed - hema, Thurs - trans, Friday - micro. No days in between. Ugh!

I never really understood why people liked twitter so much, but I completely understand now. I can't really put it in to words, but its sooo much fun. Its alot easier then writing a big blog post. If you really wanna know whats happening with me read my twitter because I update it 100000x more then I do this.

I still don't know where Im going to be living in approx 6 months because all the people that wanted to do their placement here are screwed because they "randomly" decided to redo their budget? Like wouldnt they of known that before the day that we had to choose? So now all 13 of us are up in the air. I started having panic attacks again (I had some last year during exams but kinda ignored it) This time I was having them in class so I decided to go to the doctor and get another perscription for Klonopin. So far its worked well. Hopefully I wont have to leave class early again because I feel like im going to die. lol.

Ive let myself go weight wise. It sucks. I can really tell in recent pics, especially in my face. I wanna look good for my 25th bday haha. I wanna be able to look back when im 40 and fat and wrinkly and be like yea, I looked good when I was 25 haha. so Im on a weight loss mission. 15-20 lbs by March 7th. I think thats a reasonable healthy goal. Hopefully I can do it.... wish me luck!

I got my OSAP money today which means shopping time! Haha. well I needed some new jeans for sure since I only had one pair that Id wear.. so I ended up getting 2 pairs of jeans, 2 hoodies and 2 tank tops for around $100 at Bluenotes. Pretty good I think.

Ive been sticking to my meal plans and have been trying out a lot of recipies. I just made the easiest, cheapest, fastest recipie ever. All you do is add 1 can of kidney beans, half a can of tomato sauce, 1 cup of salsa, 2/3 cup uncooked pasta, 3/4 cup water, 2 tsp chili powder to a pan and let it simmer for 15 mins and its done. Then you put cheddar cheese on top. Brad loved it. Ill probably be making it again. It will probably taste even better tmr for lunch :D

Wiiiiii

2009-01-07T16:51:00.002-05:00

School actually seems a bit easier this semester.. I ll probably take that back in a week or so. The class didn't get too much smaller. I think 10 people failed and one girl went crazy from the stress and dropped out. Well thats the rumour anyways. Her boyfriend is in our program too and I guess they broke up because when my friend asked him what happend to her and if shes ok all he said is "I don't know, shes fucked up". lol. Interesting.

I've been playing on my Wii Fit a little bit each day. Supposedly from last Friday Ive lost 5lbs. I know thats proabably just due to weighing myself at different times in the day but its still nice to see the line going down on the weight chart. When I started my wii fit age was 37! ew. Now its down to 28. That's pretty good in once week. Im almost at my actual age.

I'm going to go try and find out where my boyfriend is cause hes missing. lol.

2009

Holiday Originally uploaded by Drea Christina

I have a few new years resolutions for 2009
The first one is to lose the 10-15lbs I apparently gained (good thing I got wii fit for xmas) and just generally eat healthier
The second one is to exercise at least 30mins/3days a week and hopefully work up to 5 days a wk
The third is to study EVERY DAY after school/on breaks on what I learned that day so I don't fall behind
and the last one is to stick to our budget and pay down Brads debt, this includes not eating out for almost every single meal anymore so I decided to start making weekly meal plans. The budget for food is $50/wk.

Meal plan for Jan 5th - Jan 11th
for lunches each day we can just have leftovers from the day before, or sandwiches etc.

Monday: Easy slow cooker chicken (I decided on this recipe because I have absolutely no time to make dinner after class before Brad has to go to work on Mondays, plus I dont think Ill feel like cooking after being in school from 830am-530pm with only an hour break)

Tuesday: Easy spaghetti and meat balls (another long day, this is fast and easy, I just use pre cooked frozen PC lean meatballs, any jarred pasta sauce, half a green pepper and pre sliced mushrooms, oh and pasta of course)

Wednesday: Hurried goulash with noodles and peas - I buy extra beef and marinate and freeze half of it for Fridays stirfry

Thursday - Scalloped potato stuff - my mom thought of this really easy one pot recipe, you buy betty crockers creamy scalloped potato mix, chicken and some frozen veggies

Friday - Teriyaki beef stir fry - very easy and fast using defrosted beef from wednesday

Saturday - eating out night or if theres not enough money in the budget then spaghetti or kraft dinner.. something easy

Sunday - Chicken chickpea rice/noodle bowls

Its Beginning to feel alot Like Christmas

2008-12-16T12:06:00.004-05:00

Look what happens when Im on holidays. I update almost everyday. Yay for boredom.

Yesterday was all about christmas shopping. Brad and I got almost every present we needed. I'm still waiting for some stuff in the mail from amazon.ca and we need to buy a gift set from the LCBO for chinese christmas, but thats it then we're done.

We also learned that Brad starts his holidays earlier than we thought so that means going home earlier which is great.

Brad bought a huge new skratching post for the cats for an early xmas gift. They love it. They can stretch really high and they like to attack it and play with it too. The other one we had was from when we first got Jade which was a year and a half ago. It was really short so theyd have to lay down to skratch it. Anyways enough about skratching posts .. haha. wow my life is boring.

10 Reasons you should Date a Scientist

2008-12-15T09:49:00.002-05:00

10 - The world revolves around Scientists, we know how everything works!

9 - We are over-exposed to latex and have become very tolerable

8 - We are "Oh so smart" you'll never be mentally bored with us... So you wanna know why your poo is brown? (I so know why haha)

7 - All this thinking we do is terribly draining, so we like to be physically challenged & EXPERIMENT too!

6 - There's no need to see a doctor when you're with us, we've seen & tested just about every bacterial disease there is!

5 - We're physiologically knowledgeable, if you're unhappy about a physical feature, we can Genetically Modify YOU

4 - We can hook you up with all the essential party goods... dry ice, Eppie bombs and a shit load of combustible materials. What more could you want?

3 - We look extremely cute in our white lab coats, especially when we wear nothing underneath

2 - You will sound just as smart as us if you say you're dating a Scientist!

1 - Because if you leave us, we'll willingly use you as a lab rat & inject a virus in you

2008-12-13T07:53:00.004-05:00

Well I did it, I actually passed 3rd semester. The last two weeks I litteraly had no free time. I could barely even eat. This week was the worst. I was in bed at midnight and up at 4am studying. Id go home to eat dinner and then come back to the library at school and study until 11 and do it all over again the next day. I felt like I was high and walking in a cloud or something. It was weird, and the stress was so bad that I felt sick all the time and I started having chest pains, not to mention nightmares about failing every night. Im glad its over....anyways, my final marks were pretty good, I didn't get any in the 60s which was my goal. We have a lab portion and a lecture portion for every subject and we have to get at least a 64% in EACH one or we fail the whole program. Then at the end they combine the two marks to give you the final mark. Heres what I ended up with

Hematology 80%
Transfusion Science 80%
Clinical Chemistry 75%
Histotechnology 80%
Microbiology 75%

Im kinda interested to see how many people come back next semester. I know for a fact that 10 people failed and im sure theres people in class that don't discuss that they're failing. Theres only 48 (we started with 60 last year) of us so even 10 is a significant amount. Now I have to think of placement. We have to give our 1st, 2nd, and 3rd choices by Jan 19th. Ahhh. I dont even wanna think about going to placement it scares me lol.

10 more days until I get to go home for the holidays! Im so excited. Its going to be a boring week here until then though. Brad and I are leaving the night of the 23rd and staying until Jan 2nd. Should be fun. I need to start xmas shopping soon ahhh.

Edit. I almost forgot to say, I got my stuff on spalook even cheaper since they took so long shipping. They said it was the holiday season but I asked what they could do for me to make me a happy customer so they took an extra 15% off my bill so I saved almost $35 in the end. woo!!

4 Years Together and Shopping!

2008-11-23T13:02:00.005-05:00

This has been a great weekend. Brad took Friday and Saturday off for our 4 year anniversary. (he uusually works almost every night and weekend, and we both have school so we don't ever get full days off together unless he books them off) On friday he suprised me with a couples massage and a nice dinner. We've never had massages before so we felt really weird at first. They feel so good though. The room was dark with music playing, candles and a fireplace. We both had our own masseuse. It was 60mins long. Then after we went to Frankie Pestos for dinner. It was sooo yummy. The night cost him alot but we don't get to do that type of stuff very often.

Yesterday we spent all day together. He attempted to teach me how to drive standard. Then we went and watched the night time Ktown santa clause parade. At first he didn't want to but then he acted like a little kid when he saw all the old cars and stuff. I wish it wasn't so cold, we only lasted an hour and then had to go back home. I wanted to see Santa!!! haha. Then I made dinner and we rented Indiana Jones. Such a nice night to end off our weekend together. :D

Now back to reality :( Cleaning and homework. LOL. but before I do that I had to do some shopping, online of course.

I spent $80 on beauty products, but I actually need the stuff because im running out of everything all at once. I ran out of my mineral makeup a while ago and have been breaking out a bit with the foundation I have, now Im running out of concealer and Im almost out of facial cleanser too. I ordered my stuff from SpaLook.Com (a really good website for beauty, shipping to Canada is only $5 and they have alot of promotions. Like this morning I bought $100 worth of stuff for $80. ($20 off) . At first I just bought the three things I needed and it came to $93 so I bought this facial water mist for $7 to get the $20 off, Im going to use it to set my make up. Anyways this is the stuff I ended up getting:
Avene Thermal Spring Water, Fusion Beauty Micro Technology Bio Active Brightening Minerals, Murad Pomegranate Cleanser and Too Faced Herbal eye base and concealer

New Layout

Im totally procrastinating right now. I should be studying. Oh well, I decided to change my layout to a Christmas theme since I love Christmas!! haha.

I never feel like posting after I change a layout cause I'm usually sick of dealing with my site by the end of it.

How school is going

2008-10-26T10:56:00.003-04:00

Hey all!
Wow, so my life has been very busy..basically all of October, and its not going to stop. School is killing me. The stress is crazy, lets just say two weeks ago I saw two people faint and at least 5 cry in class. Not to mention I had a nasty sinus infection last week. And yes I still had to go to school with a high fever and feeling like I can barely stand. In my program its better to just go to the labs and tests like that because the stress of having to make them up is worse. I got through the week only missing 1 lab and 1 test so I'm pretty proud of myself. And even though I was either high on medication or high because of my fever I managed to get a 68% on a chem test (which more than half the class failed) and a 77% on my transfusion science test. (these tests are worth like 25% of your final marks by the way) So anyway just this past week I had more tests and lab reports so I have been spending my life at school/and or the library. Tues, wed and thurs I literally had 7 hrs of class and only 1 hr of break during the whole day.. then had to go the library right after to study.. so I was at school 830am every morning - 930 or 10pm at night. CRAZY! but its all worth it to me.

When the stress was crazy, at the beginning of October I was seriously thinking about quitting cause it was just so stressful and so much work and I was getting worn down, but then we got to go on a tour of the hospital here, the 3rd year currently at clinical placement (what ill be doing next year) gave the tours. We got to see the chemistry, hematology, transfusion, histology and microbiology labs. It brought back my motivation because it was so interesting to me. When we were touring the histo lab, one of the pathologists were cutting up and preparing a breast biopsy.. I thought I would be grossed out but I suprised myself because I was just facinated by it. We also saw eyeball shavings (they have to incubate them on a plate before donating them to see if they contain any bacteria) and the 3rd year told us that all the doctors and pathologists are really good about just sitting down with u and explaining every thing theyre doing...and why. and that its a really good learning experience. She also said they give you the option of seeing an autopsy being done. She said she was really nervous, and when she got in the room she turned white and had to sit down for 30mins..but after she was right in there, and they let her hold the organs and stuff. How many people have that opportunity?? I dont know if Im going to take it or not but its cool that I have the option. Anyways, I think it would be a very fufilling career, good pay, helping people. I just have to get through this last year of school. I think I can do it!

I know a lot of people don't think like this, but I just can't wait to get married and have a baby. I've had the baby bug for a while now (like 2 years) and with one of my good friends and alot of people online having babies its making it harder. But having my education and being comfortable in life before marriage and a family is important to me and Brad, so it probably wont be for another 2-3 years from now... I cant wait though!

xoxo

2008-09-22T08:40:00.004-04:00

I hate allergies!! Itchy eyes, sneezing like 10 times in a row. I finally found my allergy medicine so hopefully it works.
I have the next like 6 weekends planned and its nice. I like having things to look forward too.
This weekend is Homecoming, which is basically drinking a lot and having fun. Next weekend Im going to go and see my friends new place. Shes having a baby so she and her boyfriend had to move to a bigger place so they are moving to a townhouse about 10mins away this Friday. She also finds out the sex of the baby on Friday.. so excited!
The second weekend of Oct is, of course, Thanksgiving, so Brad and I are going home on the Sunday and Monday. It will be the first Thanksgiving in the new house. The weekend after that Im going back home because Im going to a wedding as my moms date. I can't wait to dress up. I have a feeling the wedding is going to be very nice. Theyre having the reception and the steam whistle brewery downtown Toronto. Its my sisters childhood friend who is getting married so my sister will be there too! I also might see my sisters new downtown condo. Its so effing nice from pictures Ive seen. EXCITED!!

Pics of the Brewery:

Ok so the next weekend after that I think my sister might be coming here to visit me and finally the last weekend is Halloween. Brad and I will be going home once again to a Halloween party friday night and then a stag and doe on Sat night. Phew! that was a lot. Squeeze a bunch of studying for tests in there and yea.. Ill prolly wanna sleep for a year when November comes haha.
HELP ME CHOOSE! Here are some dresses that I liked to wear to the wedding. Which one do you like best??

Depressing Post

2008-09-13T12:42:00.007-04:00

I have good days and bad days here in ktown
Weekends are usually the worst. Im sitting here alone all day because Brad works every weekend and I have no car. I start to really miss home on these types of days. I know its selfish but my only really good friend I had is now pregnant and can't go out and drink or do anything really. And she never calls me because she always feels sick. Am I not fun to hang out with?? I dont know, I just find that no one here really calls ME.
Im near tears right now and I feel so stupid for it, the reason is stupid. I asked another friend yesterday if she was doing anything (drinking, going out) at night and she said she probably not, and then today I txted her and asked her if she wanted to do something tonight, assuming she had a boring night last night, she didnt txt me back but when I went on facebook her status said she was still drunk and that last night was so fun. It made a stabbing feeling in my stomach. It s not even her fault, who knows she was probably just to drunk to think of calling me or txting me.. but times like that makes me feel so alone. My friends at home would never do that too me. They call and txt me asking where I am if im like 30mins late anywhere and to hurry up and get there. lol.
I thought I was finally at a good place last week when school started. It was so great.. to bad it only lasted like 4 days... now im back to where I was in the Summer.

EDIT
I need to stop wasting my time being depressed and feeling sorry for myself. I tend to do that too much =\ So I had my little moment and now I have to get on with my life, lol. Starting with a to do list. ...random comment but it sounds like a bird outside is either dying or having some kind of crazy bird sex....end random thought.
Stuff I want to get done:
- clean up and vacumn living room
- do the dishes in kitchen
- throw out old stuff in fridge
- change bedding/clean up bedroom
- clean office/guest room
- write out notes for all classes

Canada.Forever21.com

2008-09-09T13:32:00.006-04:00

I love Forever21! The Canadian website has no shipping plus 20% off everything. I got all this stuff plus some more tank tops n stuff for $133!! Its good quality stuff too.. I ordered some stuff in Summer. Its so much better than shopping in stores where I buy li.ke 2 or 3 things and its over $100. Oh yea, they deliver really quickly, last time my stuff ~~arrived like 2 days after I ordered.~~ nevermind, its already on the truck and out for delivery today!

Barf

2008-09-05T17:39:00.003-04:00

My life has been so hectic ever since school started. I haven't really had a chance to sit down. Im either in class, sleeping, napping, eating on the go, hmwk or going out. Speaking of going out, last night I went to a bar with some girls from class and their friends. The bar had no cover and $2 drinks. Needless to say, Im still hungover. Did I mention the 3 beer and 6 jello shots I had before even going out. Lets just say the 830am class I had this morning wasn't very fun.

Tonight Im going to some house party, and then another one tmr night. Im going to be a piece of shit by Monday.

p.s. Nikki Payne is HIL-AR-I-OUS

Beauty Tip

2008-09-02T16:17:00.004-04:00

I just thought of a really good beauty tip. Well I thought of it last night but I was pretty scared that it wouldn't work and id end up with weird hair blotches and colours going on. Anyways I just tried it and it actually worked!

I have really dark hair naturally. Almost black, so my roots show really easily. I don't have the money to get them touched up every 3 weeks, nor the patience to do them myself. Then I was thinking, the only roots that really bother me is around the hairline at the front when I wear my hair up, and when I have my hair down, its the roots that show along my part. Ive used JOLENE bleach on my eyebrows before to lighten them to a lighter brown in the past and its worked, so I thought why not try on my roots that show. Light brown is better than dark brown, that way I can go to get my roots done every 6 weeks at the salon like I had planned. So I applied the bleach to the roots surrounding my face and on my part.. left it on for literaly like 5 mins if that. And it worked.. it made the roots a light brown which blends in a lot better than the almost black I had.
Heres some before and after pics. I can see that I missed a bit at the back but it was my first time, therefore missed some parts. When I buy new bleach Ill do that area.

Im so excited, my roots were depressing me.

Goodbye Summer

EDIT Bought a domain name. SweetLittleLies.NET /EDIT

My twitter thing wont update on here and its really bugging me. Oh well hopefully its just being slow.
So this is the last weekend of summer. Where did the summer go?!?! I know where, in a cold government office with no windows also known as my summer job. I have to keep reminding myself that I don't have to go to work anymore.

Brad was off fri, sat, sun and today with me so we've been trying to make the most of the weekend before school starts. On Friday after work (4pm) we went to help my mom unpack in her new home. Her house is so cute. Ill post some pics later. We only stayed there until Saturday night so we couldn't really do much. Yesterday we went downtown and walked around, I went tanning..etc. Yesterday evening we played mini putt with some friends at the drive in. The craziest thing happened, my friend and her boyfriend tied with 61 and Brad and I tied with 64. What are the odds of that happening?
After mini putt, our friends went home because my friend is 4 months pregnant. (so excited by the way) and obviously can't drink. Brad and I went back downtown and went to a bar that was having $2.50 drinks and no cover. So dangerous! Needless to say I got really drunk.
Anyways, tonight Brad and I are going to a punk show somewhere around here. I ve never heard of the bands but oh well, hopefully its not shitty.

Why did bestbuy have to send me my credit card?? I applied for a card about 4 months ago when I got my laptop and they finally sent me the card yesterday and of course I had to buy something with it. I swear credit cards make you spend on them... so anyways I went out and bought a new digital camera, a case for it, memory card and a laptop sleeve that I've wanted since I got my laptop.
Anyways, I got an Olympus FE-330 8.0MP Digital Camera in Pink (of course). It was regular $179.99, but I got it on sale for $149.99.
I'm in love. I cant wait to take pictures with it on our Montreal weekend tomorrow!!

Tonight Brad and I are going to a German restaurant downtown with friends. My friend found out she was pregnant a while ago and I'm so excited for her. It sucks because she has to miss out on her second year of college, but oh well, stuff happens. She got her ultrasound picture of the baby and I can't wait to see it!! She was supposed to find out the sex but the babies legs were crossed. As soon as she finds out we're going baby clothes shopping, I can't wait!

Curtains!

I took a picture of my new curtains that Brad and I got at IKEA on the weekend. It only took a year to get them haha.

The window is almost 10ft long so its pretty much the whole wall.

Well I attempted to make my own layout... I chose a background anyways. haha. Im too tired to add all the info at the side which got deleted. (boo) Ill have to do that another day.

I can't wait for my boyfriend Brad to get home. He's been gone since Tuesday morning to do car stuff and visit his parents. Hes coming home tonight around 11 or 12. I miss him :(

Just a short post today, I need to clean up before he comes home.

I'm surprised to find out that a lot of people still have personal websites. Hmmm.. very interesting. Anyways, my boyfriend is getting mad at me for being on the computer. I'm a nerd, I can't help it. haha. But, that means this isn't going to be a very long post.

This weekend I got very bored because I have no friends where we live right now (we live here for school and everyone goes home in the summer) so I decided it might be fun to make my own personal-ish website again. Vox just isn't the same, and no one ever updates anymore. My old site "Blu5h.org" got closed down so Ill have to use this free crap for now. I can't bring myself to pay for a site, let alone deal with all the html shit. This is so much easier.. I just point and click. I have no creativity anymore.. its sad..

So Ive been going blonde since march and my hair is just starting to resemeble blond in the last couple of weeks, mostly because I'm to impatient and just bleached it myself. My hair used to be black.. dyed black.. so it took a lot of highlights to get to this point. Next week im bleaching it again and I think that should be good. Ive never gone blonde before so this is kind of exciting to me.

I spent most of the day cleaning. Here are some pictures of the spare room and the bedroom. I wish it looked like that all the time!
