Products... again...eeks!

10 comments

On Friday, I had one of those "me" afternoons. I was able to get off work early because it was my 2 year anniversary there. Since the husby was at work, I was able to run around and score products. WEEE! I tried to look for clothes, but nothing fancied me, BUMMER! Oh well! Anyways, I went to Sephora, ULTA, and MAC. At Sephora, I returned that whackass Clinique Take a Day Off Cleansing Milk and exchanged it for Fresh Soy Face Cleanser. Might I add, I LOOOVVEE this cleanser. It's simply amazing! I highly recommend it for dry-sensitive skin, you can try the smaller size for $15, if you'd like. I also got Clinique's brush cleaner since I ran out.

At MAC, I only planned on getting the 226 brush, but the MAC artist convinced me to grab one more thing. GAH! So he sold me on a Shadestick in Shimmersand. He was like, "Oh Honey! Do you know about our HK event?"... I told him I was attending the other MAC counter's event because my friend is the manager. Then I told him I wasn't that excited for the HK collection. I think the Blonde, Brunette, and Redhead collection is better because they have new brushes, new MSFs and stuff. The HK collection looks alright, but it doesn't get me all amped. By the way, I loooovvee the 226 brush! Oh man, it's perfect for my eyes. I don't consider myself having "asian eyes" because they're pretty round and big, but I just don't have a deep crease, so this brush is perfect for my eyes. I want another one! It's limited edition =(, I have to get another before they are long gone.

At ULTA, I wanted to use my 20% off everything coupon. So I got some NADS wax. Haha, I have no shame. I love these wax strips, they are soo gentle on my skin. My sis-in-law doesn't like it, so I'm not sure if I'd recommend it. I mean, it does the job and the more you wax, the slower the hair grows. So it's totally up to you if you want to try it. Lastly, I scored MAX Factor's 2000 Calorie Mascara (they used this a lot in the BLUSH episodes). I like it! I actually think it's better than some high end mascaras I've tried. My MUFE Smoky Lash is clumping on me =(, so I'm reaching for my MAX factor mascara more. Plus, it's not clumpy and you don't even need a brush to comb out the lashes.

I know I said my next post would be the wavy hair. But I'm too lazy to post that. I'll do it soon, promise! Well, uh, maybe... =)

Snowboarding this weekend!! WOOO! Can't wait! OoOH and it's SuperBowl weekend too, eeks, let's up I don't get fat by eating tons of fried food and chips. CRAP!

Fresh Soy Face Cleanser Review

9 comments
Oookay, so I was hoping to do my big wavy hair tutorial, but I'll just put it off till my next post. Actually, I'm still debating if I should do it! Here's a pic of my big hair, interested in achieving?

Anyways, so as I was shopping for my dear friend Kim's birthday gift (I bought her NARS Deep Throat
Blush and a VS duffle bag), I managed to snag something for myself. Just a little thing! I wanted to try Fresh's Soy Face Cleanser. I wasn't ready to fork out $38 bucks on a full size, so travel size will do for me.

"Soy Face Cleanser, Fresh's most popular cleanser for all skin types, is an extra gentle, fragrance-free, multi-tasking gel formula that instantly whisks away every day impurities, removes makeup, and is safe to use on the eye area. Safe for use on the eyes, it's face maintenance made easy. Plus, it's soap free and will never leave behind a film or residue." - from Sephora.com

The Impressives:
Soap-free. This is plus for me because soap usually leaves a film-like feeling on the face. Plus, soap-free products are good for sensitive skin!
Smell. Smells like fresh cut cucumber! I like it. The more natural smelling it is, the less I feel like I'm putting a bunch of irritants on my face.
Toner. It acts like a toner too! So, I'm able to skip the toner step. WEE!
Smooth. After rinsing, my face feels clean and smooth! Not tight, like other removers I've used.
Skip a step. I feel like I've tried every combination of skincare/makeup remover that I've had. For awhile I used Clinique Cleansing Balm, then followed with Juice Beauty Cleansing Milk. When I finished the Balm, I started using Mandom Cleansing Moist, then followed with Juice Beauty Cleansing Milk. Then, I decided to stop Mandom for awhile, and try Clinique Cleansing Milk (This is horrible stuff! I used it twice and now I'm going to return it and get a full size Fresh) then Juice Beauty Cleansing Milk. OH GAH! And this was all over a few months span. I was tired of using a full face makeup remover, then following up with a cleanser. I wanted an all in one! So, I use Fresh to cleanse the face and remove the makeup. Now, I'm using Mandom on just the eyes only, then Fresh all over. So far I'm loving it!
Travel-Friendly. It's in a tube! Woo! I always get nervous when I have pump cleanser, cause they just might spill everywhere. Plus it's hygienic.

The Wompies:
Price. GAH! $38 for a facial cleanser. I guess it isn't too bad, because I used to buy a full on makeup remover, then a facial cleanser. STILL!
Foaming. It says its a foamy cleanser, but it's more milky then foamy.

-----------------------
As for any latest hauls, hmm, not so much! I definitely took advantage of the cosmetic settlement and was able to score a bunch of Clinique Moisture Surges (I love this stuff! I had used it before, but I think it's a good summertime moisturizer than winter, but you can use it as a mask!) and one night serum thingy. No perfume, BUMMER! I really wanted the Coco Chanel Mademoiselle lotion to match my perfume, but they didn't have any! GAH! Oh yeah! I did get the Strawberry Scrub by Mario Badescu. It's only $15 bucks and it's a huge tub. I loved the sample so much, I had to get a full size. Plus, it's good to exfoliate the face two times a week. It's pink and you can actually see the strawberry seeds (hard to see cause of the webcam)

I'm halfway through "Confessions of a Shopaholic" so far soo good! I should be done by next week? Maybe. I get soo busy sometimes, I don't have time to read. BLEGH!

Hmm, what else? Oh yeah, I'm getting off work early tomorrow! WOOO! A half day for me because it's my two year anniv. at work! Haha, I'm a geek for being excited. So hmmm, what am I doing to do? Whatever the crap I want to do! I'm just going to have some "ME" time! Yes, that means going to Sephora to return that bloody Clinique Cleansing Milk because it sucks so much and a trip to MAC. I only have one thing in mind to get! And that's the 226 brush! It looks lovely....Anyone tried it?

You know what I'm bummed about? I got a Bamboo tablet as a Christmas gift, and I haven't had the time to sit down and watch the tutorials! I installed all the software on my MAC. I need to get on it... *SIGH*

AND! Another snowboarding trip on the 31st! WOOOO!

Okay, that's all.. Have a lovely day!

Rambling and MAC

17 comments
So I have a long list of movies to watch with the husby. He doesn't mind, he's quite the movie go-er himself. We watched "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" last Friday night. The movie was ammmaazzinngg! I loved it! I found out it was three hours long and I was bit worried that my mind would wander, or I might pass out in the theaters (I'm a grandma! It was a late night show), but luckily I didn't. I was fully absorbed. No worries, I won't write about any movie spoilers, but this movie made me realize a lot of things. Things that I want to add to my to-do list.

While Patrick was driving home, I told him, "I want to watch the sunrise one day! Let's wake up early one day and head somewhere with a nice view!" (Like we would ever wake up early enough!)... His response back was "Hahaha okay, why all of a sudden, you're trying to be like Benjamin Button!".. DANGIT! LOL! He caught me! Earlier that day, we were all hanging out with my brother and Kim, and I mentioned and how much I regretted not keeping a journal. It would have been nice to look back on my adolescent days to see how much I've grown, and even how naive I was. Man, I wish I kept a journal. Should I even start now? I'm approaching my mid 20s, but there's no way I could write in it everyday. Nothing exciting happens everyday in my life! I get up, I work, I go home, I cook, blegh blegh blegh....but the best part of the day is winding down with Patrick. I mean, I could write it when something exciting happens, right?

Okay, so I don't keep a journal nor a record. But! Me and Patrick had something to pull out and look back on when we got home. You know when you go through that dating phase, and you celebrate each month? LOL! Yeah, we'll call me corny or whatever, but we did that. The first month, Patrick gave me a card with a long letter inside. I told him that I loved getting cards, especially if it had a letter inside. So for every month, he continued to give me a card! I've kept them all! So we pulled out that box and I read through the 1st card. It was crazy! He called me, "Jen", which never happens now. He even mentioned that he saw us being together for a long time. Who would have though that 3 1/2 years later, he'd be my husband! Then Patrick pulled out an envelope, which had all our movie stubs and first time stuff. Matches from the restaurant we had our first date, the ski lift ticket when we went snowboarding for the first time together, first piece of jewelry given, etc. I love how we kept this stuff! Hopefully we'll have it to show to our children when they are old enough! Or even just looking back on how it all started...
Sorry, I know this was a lovey dovey mushy mushy post. LOL! BUT! I need to get back on track with this blog, I've been slacking! So this is me playing catch up...



As for MAC purchases, I took advantage of that MAC sale. MAC never has a sale! Since I just bought a blush palette in the beginning of the month, I only filled up three spots. I never really was a blush person until now, it really adds a nice glow to your face, just don't overdue it and look like a clown! So, I ended up buying three more to fill it up! Sunbasque, Plum Foolery, and Secret Blush (Beauty Powder Blush), brow set in ShowOff, and Verdigris eyeshadow. I ended up depotting these the other night, and let me warn you, depotting these blushes were a pain! I depotted Emote and Gingerly before, and it didn't seem that hard. But this time, I was struggling. I cut myself, EEKS! But it was just a small cut. BLEGH! Oh yeah, and because the formula is different for the beauty powder blush than the reg. blush, I cracked mine a little bit on the edges. DANGIT! But all in all, everything is removed and placed in the palette. The good thing, I have all my black MAC containers and I'm ready to Back 2 MAC and get some freebies for recycling! WOO!

Enough about that! The reason why I've been lacking on my posts is because I'm just plain lazy! I rather read the books that I got instead, too! That's right! I finally got some books! I'm not an avid reader like Patricia, or Janelle. I alway considered reading as a task, from college! And of course, I was traumatized with books I didn't like reading (except for Memoirs of a Geisha). But finally, I realized that I should pick up reading and read whatever I want to read. Reading is fundamental! LOL! So here are the two books I got!
















So far, I'm loving "Confessions of a Shopaholic", I wanted to read this because the movie comes out in February and I really like to see how they compare. Plus, being the junkie and shopper that I am, makes it an even better read. Plus, everyone that read the series seems to like it. Then! I got this Bobbie Brown Makeup Manual because it was 20% off! I know everyone blogged about that COSMO Beauty Book, but I like this one! There's a lot of pictures to explain application with different face shapes, eye shape, skin, etc. It also has chapters on skincare and bodycare. The good thing is that the book isn't all about Bobbi Brown cosmetics, thank goodness, cause I don't own any of her stuff (yet!). =)




OH OH! And one more thing! When I hung out with Beth on Sunday, I was able to get this at Bed, Bath, & Beyond! It's a purse hook! WOOOO! I'll never have to put my purse on a chair, on my lap, or on the floor (which I wouldn't ever do!)! Call me a weirdo, but I LOOOOVVEE IT! Perfect for restuarants, bars, etc...The first time I saw this, a lady had it at Panera, and I was in complete shock! I was impolite and I stared.. SO WHAT!

Oookay, that's it for now! I know I need to keep up with this thing. I still have to write about...
  • Bombshell Beauty contacted me and sent me free hair products. Basically, it's like that Hair Bumpit thing you see on tv. I haven't tested it out but I will, and I'll do a review soon.
  • CIBU products. I always rave about CIBU stuff. I LOOOVVEE IT! It smells sooo good and PHO FINISH is absolutely amazing. It's the best hairspray that hold your hairstyle without stiffening it up!
  • Hair. I'm getting frustrated with my hair. This is the longest I've ever had it! I'm about to cut it soon, I think? If I don't chicken out! I really like Jennifer Aniston's hair in this photo... please don't mind the buttshot. HMM! If I decide to do it, I'll head over to the lovely Bubbles at Lynnhaven! Ladies, get your hair done at a Bubbles or Salon Cielo! The stylists are amazingggg! Plus you can get CIBU products while you're there!

That's all for now! One more day till FRIDAY!! GAH! I can't wait till the weekend.


Have a lovely day!

Ringing in 2009 with a BANG!

14 comments
Our mini vacay to NoVa was simply amazing! I could go on and babble and babble about everything that went on, but I'd run you around in circles. So, I'll break this post up in topics, so I can stay focused too...

Tuesday Night. We arrived at my brother's house in NoVa that night. Thinking, that we were just unwinding with a glass of wine turned into downing a few bottles. EEEKS! The girls were drunk as a skunk and the guy sat back and laughed... Then! When we dropped our luggage in the guest room, I noticed a post it with my name on it! The fabulous Kimmy left me some PRIVE Products!! WOOOO! I was stoked! Prive smells soooo good!!!

New Year's Eve. Off to our snowboarding adventure. It's too bad my sick butt got car sick. BLEGH! What's wrong with me??? I need to start carrying Dramamine in my purse. Then finally, we packed on the gear and hit the slopes. We knew the guys had a plan to ditch the girls since they are a tad advanced (*wink), so as soon as we got to the lift, they said "Oookay, guys on this and girls on the next" DAMMMIT! We all had our hearts racing while we were on the lift. I wanted to impress the husby and make sure I didn't fall. SUCCESS! =) He was proud... After snowboarding, we were supposed to meet up with my fam, but we were all too lazy! The night ended with a good ass steak dinner, Kings, and drunken Taboo. Uhhh, we definitely got our 2nd win. Oh yeah, women are much better communicators than men, it's was proven with a game of taboo. Guys got their asses spanked!


SnowBettys!!!! WOOO!




New Year's Day. Loafed all day in sweats!! Slept till like 1pm. Laid around. Took this picture.Tickle contest (don't ask). Dinner at Coastal Flats. YUM YUM!


Friday. The girls were too sore to board again, so the guys took another trip. My tailbone was still sore so I wasn't trying to risk it either. So instead, I had some quality time with my sis-in-law, Patricia. During our trip we drooled at Chanel purses, MAC (Haul: Gilded Ash eyeshadow, Blush palette, Trace Gold Blush), Lush, Panda Express, TangySweet, Georgetown Cupcake. Don't judge us! Just because we hit up a lot of food places, doesn't mean we're fatties!! LOL! (Oh yeah! I depotted my blushes to fit in my palette! I was skurred as crap to crack/break it, but I done did it! Even EMOTE!)




Oh! And Kim was so kind to show our (me and Trish's) blogs to the project manager at CIBU. There were kind enough to give us CIBU bags from New York's Fashion Week - Christian Siriano Show. WOOOO! It has my holy grail hairspray, PHO FINISH along with some extra goodies. Keep an eye out for a review! Thank you, KIM! AND! Thank you CIBU project manager!!

Saturday. Caught up with the fam. Frozen Yogurt at IceBerry (I like IceBerry better than TangySweet, they are not stingy with toppings! BUT! I still love the local Skinny Dip!!) and back to the beach. Our mini vacay was ovvveerrr!! NooOOOO!

Okay, I'll catch up with this bloggy thing later. I'm too tired. This whole "full" work week isn't working for me. I'm exhuasted and it's only Wednesday tomorrow... GAH!

Someone please tell me the weekend is near? Hope you all started 2009 right, I know I did =)

Cheers to 2008 ....

10 comments
2008 was the most promising year by far for me personally. I've been blessed throughout 2008 and I hope that God will continue to bless me and my family with the blissful years to come. The year started out amazing, just take a look for yourself...

engaged. The husby proposed on 01.18.08! It was amazing! I seriously had no idea what he had planned up his sleeve that day. It seems like it was yesterday, dinner at the sushi restuarant where we had our first date, and then going back to his place and seeing a trail of flower petals on the ground. OH GAH! I cried my eyeballs out like a baby! Oh yeah, and my ring is simply gorgeous! PUAHAH! Had to brag! LOL!


wii. Sometime in January, z104 (local radio station) busted in my office at work and delivered my WII! I won a contest! WOOO! I was nervous as heck! HAHA! It didn't help that I had to hold the mic and say "Hi, I'm Jen and thanks to z104, I just won a WIII!!" LOL! I totally geeked out.

rekindled. As you get older, you realize that the petty drama you had years ago wasn't worth losing a friendship. Luckily, I rekindled the friendship with my high school friend and we smashed the drama. This is when you start to realize that you're not getting any younger and there are far more things to worry about than petty drama.

snowboarding. As winter season ends, it's time to hit the slopes just one more time! I took this shot of the husby!! WOOO! Look at him gooo, sooo hott! LOL!

engagement party and bridal gown shopping. My parents threw an engagement party for me and Patrick while his parents were in town from California. It was lovely! Oh and bridal gown shopping felt super fun! Haha, I won't forget the time I was shopping with my girls in NOVA and I tried this beautiful gown on. Then, I asked how much, she said "It's only $3,900.. GAH! Okay, let's take this off now! But alas, I found the dress of my dreams! Come to find out later, it was on the cover of BRIDE this year.


80s. HAHA! This pic is one of my favs! This is all of us getting ready to head out to the LegWarmers concert in NoVA! It's a strictly 80s concert and you have to dress the part. It was tons of fun! It took forever for me to crimp my hair but I done did it! My hair was straight up flammable! I was scared whenever someone lit a lighter during a song! OH GAH! That would have been bad!

miami. Oh GOODNESS! What can I say that won't get me in trouble? Hahaha, KIDDING! The husby had his bachelor party in Vegas and me and my girls headed to Miami for 4th of July weekend! Our hotel was loveeellyy! Free Happy Hour drinks! OH MAN! Our flight back home was at 6am, umm yeah not a pretty site. I was still drunk when I checked in with the flight attendant. LOL! My cousin was hungover... PUAHAH!

bridal shower. This is when wedding plans were coming down to the wire. But my mother and my good friend, Mar are sooo good to me, they threw a beautiful bridal shower for me.

wedding. I was absorbed in wedding plans for 2008! People say it takes a year to plan a wedding, well I did it in 7 months! It's possible, you'll just be stressed to your jugular! But in the end, it's all worth it. The wedding was gorgeous and my husby is soooo handsome. We exchanged vows while I cryed my eyes out AGAIN! Most of his family flew from California and my maid of honor, Morrissa flew from Florida. Everything was perfect on that day!





honeymoon. After all the stress, it was nice for me and husby to get away. While we had cruise plans to go to Cozumel, Mexico, hurricane plans changed the route. We ended up in the Bahamas. But it was still a beautiful site!

pounds. because this was the "wedding" year, I've lost 8-9 lbs!! So far, I've only gained a pound or two extra... But I'm hoping to maintain it! EEKS! My aunties have no shame when it comes to talking about weight. They have no shame to tell me "you've gained weight, eh?" OR! "look you're soo skinny now, you used to be chubby!" OH GAH!

townhome. Me and husby picked out a townhome for us to live in. It's beautiful! I had sooo much fun decorating. I looovvee interior design. So I had fun picking out furniture, window curtains, kitchen table, etc.

In 2008, it was promising for my personal life. As for 2009, I'm hoping that it will be promising for my professional/career development. Let's hope 2009 has a lot in store for me! As for posting, this is me signing off my last post for 2008. I'll check back in 2009! WOO! As for ringing in the New Year, I'll be spending time with loved ones on the slopes then partying it up wth the fam in NoVa.

I hope everyone has a bangin New Year!!!
I know I will ;).

Lovely Christmas....

10 comments
I hope you all had a lovely Christmas! As for me, it was me and the husby's first Christmas as a married couple. It was definitely a moment to cherish. We opened gifts on Christmas morning and I was so excited for him to open his gift! I was able to snag a huge box from work, so I basically wrapped his gifts within other gifts. Hehe! He had the "WTF?" look each time he opened a gift and then found another gift in it. But he loved his gifts, and that's what mattered anyways. As for me, he brought down a huge box and it was my turn. I ripped the paper and found a Coach box. Right away, "Awww, you better not have just used the box to wrap my present!" But then, when I saw the white dust bag, I immediately ran over and tackled him with hugs and kisses. Then he told me to open the dust bag, and there it was! The chocolate brown Madison Coach bag! It was like the heaven's trumpet sounded, "AWWWW!" LOL! I amazed! I told the husby it was too expensive, but he told me not to worry at all. I LOOOVVEEE IT! He also snagged a NARS lipgloss for me and the UD Velvet Rope eyeliner set. YAYEE!!!






Then afterwards, we headed over to the parentals for some good family time!
It was nice to spend time with our familia. We ate, we laugh, we drank... it was purely lovely! AH!! And more gifts... might I add, I was "nice" this year! PUAHAH! Eh, it would take forever to write who gave what, but they all know who they are. THANK YOU AGAIN for the gifts below, if you're reading, I LOOVVEEE YOU GGUUYYSS!


Here are some photos too! Of course, we had to take those "prom-like" photos! PUAHAHAH! OH GAH! Don't mind the middle picture. LOL! The fam alway tease Patrick and say he resembles Manny Pacquiao, puahah I don't see it! But then, when Patricia's man was in the photo, one auntie said "PACQUIAO vs. HATTON" (That's the next fight that should be coming!). PUAHAH! The guys are crazy!



Okay, as for post Christmas, courtesy of the gift of a Macy's gift card, I was able to snag two things. The 217 brush which I've been lemming and the MAC Penultimate liner. Has anyone tried this liner? Thoughts? Better than fluidline?? Let me know! Thanks, dear!

----------------------------------


Enough about haulage, let's talk about brush cleaning. It's very important to keep your brushes sanitary.
You don't want that bacteria and gunk building up. Sooo, I just have to say that my sis-in-law, Patricia is one smart cookie! She recommended the Loen Cornell brush cleaner, so I snagged it while I bought Christmas ornaments a few weeks ago. I finally put that bad boy to use last night. It was loovveeellly!! It cleaned my brushes soooo fast! What I did was put my Clinique brush cleaner a little above the first line, then filled it up with water to the second line. Then swivel, swivel! Then removed the brushes and run it under warm water. Thanks, Trish! I totally recommend it! You can buy this at your local craftstore, I bought mine at Michaels. It's only 5-6 bucks, I believe.

Okay, that's all for now. Have a lovely day!

Merry Christmas to ME??

20 comments
I'm treating myself, I deserve it! PUAHAH! Plus, I'm done Christmas shopping and work has been a bit crazy. Oookay, so on Friday afternoon, I received my MAC package. Can I just say how good of a deal this is? First of all, let's start with the Charming Garnet set. It includes Belightful powder, Bare Slimshine, 181 brush, travel size Zoomlash, and travel size black liner (I forgot the name). The black liner was not supposed to be in there, at least it wasn't included in the set. So a nice freebie for me, wooO! The set was only $30, and the powder is worth $21, slimshine is $14.50, and the brush is $30! So, I couldn't pass it up! The liners are okay, I mean for the price, it's not to shabby! I had MAC withdrawal, I haven't purchased MAC since the beginning of November! I was overdue! I started twitching.. no not really just kidding!

Next, you all know
I've been on the prowl for a tinted moisturizer. So I was able to drag the husby to MacArthur mall. I met the MUA for Laura Mercier and she was super nice! She color matched me, and complimented my eye makeup! I love that! PUAHHA, anyways, my color is Fawn. My first impression of this stuff is that I'm simply amazed! I applied this with my 109 and I achieved that dewy, glowy look with an even complexion. Let see how it works for the rest of the week, I've only used it twice and my face is loving it! I also snagged some goodies at Bath and Body Works. I'm not too fond on the lotion because I have such sensitive skin. But I wanted to get that C.O. Bigelow Body Buffer! I looove the lip exfoliator by C.O. Bigelow so I can only imagine how it'll feel all over the body! I'm going to try to convince the husby to use it, PUAHAHHAH! Oh yeah, I also snagged peppermint and spearmint oil! One is Stress Relief and the other is Headache Relief. I've been getting a lot of headaches, and taking meds all the time isn't good for the bod, so I decided to get my own peppermint oil to rub on my temples. My mom got me into this. She rubbed peppermint oil on my temples when I used to get headaches. Oh and those lip products, $3 bucks each! Not bad eh? When I was taking this picture, the husby tried to put those Wallflower air fresheners from Bath and Body Works in this pic! LOL! He was like, "It's part of your haul?!" ... ummm no! HAHA, love that he makes me laugh.

Last but not least! You've heard me complain about my dry skin. I love my Clinique Moisture Surge, but I feel like I need a little more. So since I'm almost out, I decided to switch over to Hope in a Jar for Dry, Sensitive Skin. Let's hope it lives to the hype that my sis-in-law raves about me. I just tried it a few minutes ago, and my face still feels a little sticky... EEKS! Did I put too much?

Oh, and a big thank you to Steph! I got my MAC Emote Blush! It looks like it'll be perfect for contouring! And, thanks for the pigment! I'm sooo excited to try this! Thanks for your lovely card too!

UPDATE: OOps! I totally forgot to mention my new threads! Geez, can I just mention that there was a buttload of sales at the mall? I got a new cream peacoat @ Nordstroms for only 40 bucks! Jeans were buy one get one free @ Pacsun! Wooo! I got me some new skinnies! Hmm.. and some sweaters here and there.

Have a lovely week! It's a short work week for me!! WoOO!!! I can't wait till Christmas!! I really can't wait to give all these gifts away! OoooH! and Snowboarding on New Year's EVE!!! WoOOO!
