there’s something that is stressing me out…
and it stresses me out because in some sense it is beyond my control

end of an era

i went to a warehouse sale yesterday, the aritizia warehouse sale….! i hate warehouse sales because my god, what is going on? and i can never find anything good EVER! im not super patient and you really have to be there for like half the day.
i went with my friend who left for T.O. yesterday, sad sad.

i got one dress, one pair of jeans, one hat, and one top, dress and shirt you’ll see sometime later..probably haha

i scored these Acne jeans for $40!!!!! i dont have anything that’s a perfect light blue wash, so i was very excited. It’s kinda awkward because the zipper is at the back but i think i’ll get used to it…

and this super cute hat :D

my webcam is super low quality, probably shoots in like VGA or something..but anyways…

the dress is SO PRETTY TOO! the whole point of having a nice dress is the element of surprise when you wear it. sadly i dont have anywhere to wear it to…

anyways, i’m leaving next week..

i’m technically on vacation from monday from my job, that’s what i told them..well today probably will be my last shift FOREVER. I don’t care what i’m doing in the future but i cannot work for them any longer. i cannot believe that i’ve been at this crappy job for five years. the job just kept on getting worse!

i didn’t even want to go to today’s shift but you know what, i’m some what responsible and i don’t want to be someone like that so i will go to my shift.

well i guess what really describes my state is this song by Bishop Allen called Middle Management

the end is near! the end better be near…

MIDDLE MANAGEMENT IS THE VIRUS, IT’S THE CANCER THAT EATS AWAY EVERYBODY’S SANITY.

Levis 501 Shorts!

im so glad i finally got a pair :D and i’m also glad that i waited because i didn’t see this wash last year, i only saw the light wash which i wasn’t a huge fan of. but these are amazing :D

can’t wait for the weather to get warmer so i can wear it, why won’t it be sunny and warm? why????

button fly too! AND IT WAS ON SALE! (i didn’t think it’d ever go on sale, it wasn’t a huge discount but stillll amazing to get this on sale)

new converse!

this is perhaps the most pointless blog post ever but i also don’t care….

i’ve been thinking that i need a pair of classic chucks, the most classic. I was really caught between black vs white high tops. Black has its obvious advantages like not getting dirty as fast but white is just..so..awesome.

so i got white.

this is also the first pair of high chucks that i own. i have one other pair but it has a different..feel to it i guess.

im proud of myself because i thought hard and a lot about which pair would be better, the whole not buying so much crap thing. i also think i should throw away some of my really old chucks but i dont think i can do without them.

this is honestly my last pair for a long while. i am trying to get all the ‘classics’ of one’s wardrobe together and figure out the rest later. if you look at my credit card bill it’s all food now! :D so it’s a very small bill, i am really good at not buying things recently. i got some black and white v necks recently but it’s only because i can’t live without plain tshirts…

alrighty..

AMAZON.COM!

i love amazon.com ;___;
i’m for certain that i’ll buy a kindle if i move away from an english speaking country!

anyways, amazon is great because they sell really neat stuff that you wouldn’t expect…

I FINALLY! got the gold casio digital watch~~~ i tried to find it locally but had no luck, it looks great! I love it :D

the lady that cuts/perms my hair uses this on me, i love the smell, very intoxicating (probably full of toxins lol) but i really liked it the few times that she used it on me. I finally decided to get a bottle for myself too.

and of course, i had to buy some books. I am happy to be finally owning these two, kind of disappointed that the paper quality in Norwegian wood is much thinner than in south of the border, west of the sun. i’m kind of weird about paper, as to why i never ever purchase trade paper backs because i hate newspaper print…

except for a copy of oryx and crake i bought for school (mandatory)

i haven’t been doing much, i was saying that i’m gonna do spring cleaning, donating clothes, i really want to get a jump on life or something like that, but it’s too hard ;__;

( i just took a nap, maybe that’s why i’m using words like – take a jump on life -)

anyways…!

Metallic Clarks

i’ve worn them a few times so it’s dirty now but these are the ones that I got in Seattle, they are metallic, i don’t know why but when i first tried them on the first thought that popped into my head was, Kanye would approve..

hmm..

shiny and pretty and plastic

i buy make up, maybe once or twice a year….but being a girl it’s very easy to get sucked into beautiful world.


MY FIRST REAL LIPSTICK, i know, how could i have never bought a lipstick before? Uhhhhh, I like lip balm? I’ve used dior’s lip gloss before, it was meh but my friend highly recommended their lipstick so I decided to try it, i really like the color. I’m using #864 . I also got this Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage something, I read it on this beauty blog, Karlie Kloss highly recommends it! Apparently it’s great for hiding dark shadows and just small blemishes, I think it’s pretty good because it lets you blend the colors pretty well

And a stila blush, I already have a blush, the clinique one, but this one’s so pretty…a lot more brighter than my other one.. …

i’m trying to be more careful about my appearance, not my clothes, but my face, but it’s hard when you care as little as i do. hahahaa =_=

i’m an awkward writer when i talk about make up.. !

i want to learn how to do those super natural looking make-up ..techniques, nothing fancy, and not too many colors, i think that’s all i’ll need :D

The colors don’t look good

i always get jealous when people are able to do amazing presentations on their hard wood floor, my hard wood floor is too red and the lighting in here is too weak, but i love the lighting in my room, it makes me feel like i’m in a studio. i have three lamps on but no lights.

but i digress… I haven’t been doing much lately so I haven’t had much to blog about, other than hanging out at home and reading, really not much is done. BUT I realized that I gained two new subscribers so I was all like, I need to blog…

Just showing you some new stuff I bought recently that I love. I bought some other things too, this over sized sweater that I’m unsure about and some other items. But these look the best on film.

So I finally bought the fragrance, I love it, but I’m still trying to get used to it, just like how I am trying to get used to my hair, still not used to it, really not. And the nike tshirt is my working tshirt, when I / work / I wear it, not at my job obviously, but work. Whatever that work may be.

right now I want to write here lots but I have nothing to share, so I guess I’ll keep sharing music. Hope that’s okay with you :)

P.S. I’m doing 52 books in 52 weeks over on my other blog, so yeah, umm, check it out :D

edit: winniey edited it for me, thank youuuuu

RELACE low




i got these for 50% off :D :D still a bit much to pay for canvas sneakers in my opinion since i get everything for like $12 lol… (my converse, SOME of my converse, others i paid much more, much much more =_=) I saw these online a long time ago and the girl that had these had them in navy with white laces. When I unexpectedly went to adidas the past weekend, I was really REALLY surprised to find these…

as apparently they were sold out everywhere in hong kong..

there was red and adidas blue leather ones but none in my size so i picked these up instead. i dont think i’ll be using the white laces because it’s not a good symbol, and life is all about symbols.. (reading too much milan kundera lately)

these pants are pajamas from Old navy that I got for like $8, but I tie a knot because they are too wide and too long, they look like drop pants by Comme des garcons! (poor girl’s avant garde..)

HAHAHAHAHA
