The goodies

Jovie Jubilee Luxury Body Lotion

Virga Botanicals (back)
[Smells like my grandma's breath right after she ate dried plums.
I will not call this youthful.
Probably better for aromatherapy than using it as a perfume]

Don't know why this photo is vertical. Oh wells. This is the extra bag, they sent me.
Only this time it has Tan Towels and another card. 
Overall, not a very good bag. :(  
It feels like this bag aims at people in their 30s and older. 
Probably subscribe for another month or two.
I hear May's bag will be nice.

Sindulge April Box

Take a look at my first Sindulge box! 
Sindulge is another one of those monthly beauty box subscription services.
What is unique about this service is that it includes a free consultation every month. 
This box is $12. 
I bought this box during their one penny promotion. The code is JKFF (not sure if expired yet).
It comes in a regular box. Besides the card, all the items in the Sindulge purse box (?).  

The items are neatly wrapped in red tissue paper inside the purse box.

Pixi Flawless & Poreless Primer
Pixi Eye Bright Prime

Indie Lee Lemongrass Lotion
[This lotion smells really fresh and natural and it is not oily at all (which I love!)]
Pencil Me In Eyeliner Pencil: Brownie
[I did not like this eyeliner. Putting on this eyeliner hurts my eye because it is hard and the color is light so you have to go over it a couple of times. It also smear very easily. My opinion.]


The rose scent is strong, but not overwhelming. I really like the scent!
Unfortunately, I cancelled the membership a week ago. It is not because I don't like it, I just felt I don't need it and I want to try other subscription services. I still haven't try Birchbox!

Wetseal Haul!!!

I went to Panda Express yesterday for free Shanghai Angus Steak. It was a small portion, but being in line a couple times throughout the day, it's a meal. The Panda Express I went to was in a mall and I was in the mall from 2pm to 9pm. That's 7 hours! From 2-4pm I did my shopping. Then I waited for my friend to get out of class for like 1 hour. After that, my friend came, I bought her sushi because she was complaining. We talked for a while and she went and did her shopping. It's a small mall, and being there for 7 hours is ridiculous. 

I love shopping at Wetseal and at least 1/3 of the clothes in my closet is from Wetseal. I even bought the fashion insider thing for 10% off every purchase. That's $20 for a year? I don't remember. 

Here's the outcome of the day!

Online clearance price: $12.99 
Store sale price: $10

11 pieces
Total: about $30 (including tax and 10% discount ) :)

My perfect size is a medium, but I can fit smalls.
Large and extra large is definitely too big for me, but with those tops, I can always layer a cami under it.

YongSeo's Banmal song, now my ringtone!!!



This song has been on repeat for the past few days and is now my ringtone!!! kekeke..
Well, the piano version of this song. At first I wanted a more digital version of the tone, but couldn't find it so I settled for the piano version.

I've been watching the korean show, "We Got Married" YongSeo cut, of course, for the past week. They are so entertaining. It's like a live manga...lol. I started watching it because Seohyun is my favorite member of SNSD!!! I'm not really a fan of SNSD, I only know Seohyun and after watching this, I like her even more!!! She is such a good role model and she's just one year older than me! I wished I was more like her! boo. I also enjoy C.N. Blue's music even before all this, but as I started college I forgot about them. :( Another song, I like from them is Love Revolution, the English version. I find their accent really entertaining. They are such a cute couple, it's like they just came from a manga/manhwa!!

Stop being distracted by others, start focusing on myself

It's July, we're half through 2011 already. Looking back, it feels like I've been helping others more than helping myself. Failing myself to help others succeed. That's one sad way to look at it, but what's done is done. I just don't need to be involved in other people's life as I wanted to. I shouldn't put other's responsibilities as my own. I have stuff to do for myself and hardly can handle that. I need Me time, badly. I don't put myself in the spotlight, but that does not mean I don't deserve it. What I do and wanted to do is far greater than anyone else's anyway. I've been overlooked and overshadowed enough, don't make me feel worthless, when I know I'll be more expensive then you ever will be. Seriously, compare to everyone I'm a saint! Okay...time to hold back my ego. This half of the year just seems like I've been pushed around here and there everywhere like an idiot. I like handling my own situation rather than sharing it with everyone else and have them figure it out for me, which also led me to situations where people enter into my comfort zone and I just burst. I like having on my happy and optimistic personality and act like there's not a care in the world, but that's not always possible. There are times when I feel I just want to fall apartI need to get myself together and just concentrate on myself.

Summer Rain

Rainy Summer Day in San Francisco

It's summer and I'm putting my umbrella and rain boots to good use! The weather here and in LA sure is different. It's so unpredictable. It's such a bad day to walk to class, so I took the bus instead. I've been trying to avoid the 29 bus, because not only does it take FOREVER, it's crowded, two dollars and the bus lady was so horrible! Luckily today it's a different bus driver which made my day a bit better.
