I sweat like crazy!! then they offer yoga and pilates! haven't tried it yet but i'm going to next week! never done yoga or pilates before O_o heard it was a good workout though...anyone ever done it?? anyway..I just run on the treadmill and do the elliptical machine when I don't do the workout classes haha haven't worked my way around all the machines yet lolll. but yes, I love being able to feel good about myself! I feel like back then I ate way too much bad foods...like fast food, greasy foods,junk foot etc. all the time! I've also cut out sodas and i'm glad!!

...Irish car bomb anyone?

Hi lovlies!
oyyyyyyy I feel like ranting up the whazooo! but I won't...at least not too much (:

has it really been nearly a month since my last post?! im terribly sorry but i've just been so distracted with...life. mainly exams of course! I've already had about 10 exams since my last post! but good news is I did really good on all of them because I pull all nighters haha and now I pay the price by looking quite haggard LOL. Weekends are relax &/or party days haha so yah.......I hadn't had a drink since back in AUGUST! yes I know that way over 7 months! i'm not much of a drinker/party girl because it's exhausting and the mere fact that I can't STAND the taste of liquor-it makes my stomach twirl a million times! but yes, when I DO party I tend to over do it...as in I just don't know when to stop drinking haha but everyone says i'm a million times more sociable and really outgoing lol. so yah last Friday me and my bf went to his friend's house and had a mini party. (I prefer house parties/mini get togethers rather than a clubs! is that weird?! haha) anyway, we did IRISH CAR BOMBS haha it was awesome....when I drink...I don't like to hold a drink in my hand and sip on it. I prefer downing it right there. so we did one Irish car bomb and literally a minute later, I stepped outside with everyone and everything started moving and jumping and yes....I was drunk already! Crazy right?! how is that even possible to be drunk a minute later??! because I never drink lolll I was bouncing everywhere by the time we did another irish car bomb. AHHH they're amazinggg...for anyone who don't know what they are, it consists:
1/2 cup of guinness beer
1/2 a shot of Jameson whiskey
1/2 a shot of bailey's irish cream.

what you do is drop the mixed shot of jameson and baileys into the cup of beer and down because if you don't drink it right away it gets clumpy and gross.

YUMMY!lol

NYX lipstick swatches!

It took me forever and a half but as promised, here are the NYX lipstick swatches! :) all of these swatches are purely only the lipstick. I did not add any lipgloss since I wanted you all to see its true color just in case any of you may want to buy it :)

Electra:

The perfect red I have been looking for! its goes on so creamy and lasts long.

Femme:


bright peachy orange. (Femme is alot more brighter than this in person-I don't know why it doesn't show in the pictures)

louisiana:

vibrant pink

Pumpkin Pie:

a very suttle orangey-nude color. looks natural and its very wearable-one of my favorites!

Fig:

the perfect satin pink.

tea rose:

a lovely rosy pink.

B52:




snow white:

Another lovely red that is quite similar to Electra but has a slight difference.

Thalia:

A tad too dark for me.

Georgia:

This one is a bit too shimmery for my taste but it is still pretty.

Milan:


Peony:



Can't stress enough how much I love the lipsticks! I plan to make another purchase very soon! :)

*hello to all my new followers!, and thank you everyone for visiting:)

NYX lippies haul!





NYX lippy haul! YAY! this is my very first NYX purchase and I must say, I'm VERY impressed with the lipsticks :) The lipsticks are very creamy, moisturizing, long lasting, and most importantly, pigmented and not at all drying-simply amazing!

So lets start off with the basics-I ordered these off of Cherry Culture. Cherryculture.com is a website that sells a variety of more lower end brands. I'm not too familiar with the site products because i've only ordered once from there, but I hear people talking about them and they all love it. It seems they always have some sort of sale going on and one happened to be going on when I made my purchase! :) so I got 12 lipsticks and 1 lipgloss. Each lipstick was $1.75 and they are originally $3.00 and they are actually still on sale so go check it out! The lipgloss was originally $3.00 and I got it for $2.00.

I've only used a couple lipsticks so far and have truly liked all of them so far. Normally, I don't wear lipstick besides the occasional amazing nude color Darling by Gosh. But lately, i've been finding myself picking up one of these lipsticks and applying it :)

The lipsticks have a floral scent when you smell the stick but once you apply it to your lips(which to me smells quite lovely!), it really has no smell.
As for the lipgloss, it is not at all sticky but I really don't like the smell. It has a ginger type smell to it, which I was never too fond of ginger in the first place.

anywho, here are all the lippies:


(L-R): Louisiana, Femme, Georgia, Fig, Electra, Snow White, Milan Pumpkin Pie, Peony, Tea Rose, B52, Thalia


Louisiana, Femme, Georgia, Fig


Electra, Snow White, Milan Pumpkin Pie


Peony, Tea Rose, B52, Thalia


top view.


lipgloss in Apricot

If you haven't tried NYX's lipsticks then I strongly reccommend that you do because they're really great and so so cheap! I payed $24.35 for 13 lip products and thats including shipping and handling fees.

*sorry for no swatches, but I will put them up ASAP! and I will describe color and more details about the lippies once i've got them swatched.

SNOW day in TEXAS! ...and i'm back!

Hello lovlies! im back!! :) so sorry i've been gone for so so long! I can't believe its been that long since my last post! anyway, I'm back now and I have many upcoming posts so please stick around :)

first off, let me say that it SNOWED all day long yesterday! we got about a total of 8 inches of snow! isn't that AMAZING?! YES :) I loooved it so much. I felt like a little kid who had just seen snow for the first time haha. I kept running outside and playing in it. it was so lovely. it was GORGEOUS of course. and all schools closed of course, including both Universities for two whole days so I get a 4 day weekend :)I know its just snow, but here, when it does snow, its a very big deal. Its like an extra holiday to us :) It doesn't snow too often here in Texas. Actually, we're lucky if we even get one inch a year. It usually snows every few years. But for some reason this past year, it has snowed TWICE already!(: anywho, here are some pictures of the lovely day:




so cute!


in the morning, just a few hours of snow








the driveway


out in my backyard




my boot prints!


I then woke up the next morning when it stopped snowing and looked out my bedroom window and saw this:







mmm love ittt.

ok, next post will be a mini collective haul post. check back soon :) thanks for reading&following!!

♥ps.hellow to my new followers!♥
