DAY 15: A stranger and why you choose them

hmm i hv not idea how to answer to this post, so instead of strangers I will choose " friends". I'm new to blogger & new to the whole award thing. However I do like it a lot, it's fun. So I decided that my " friends" are my current followers ( as of today) !!

All of you deserve this award =) hope you pass it along to someone else and make their day too <3

Day 14: Something you craved today

The other day I went to the mall & as I walked pass by Clarins, the sales lady start speaking loudly to me when I didn’t even look at her. So I turned and she basically grabbed me & keeps telling me how great their whitening products are. She was pretty persuasive and I have to say I almost bought them. However, I know to never buy a product without doing research so I hold the thought!  Today, I'm craving whitening products, actually buying them has been on my mind for a while, I used Dior couple years ago  but I didn’t use a line, I only use the essence bottle because I felt buying the whole line is too expensive & unnecessary. The bad thing with me is consistency, so brightening process was not so successful because of the discontinue usage. This year I think I’m finally growing up and becoming more consistent at not just one but many things. So I thought I should give whitening another try.

Right now I am still kind of leaning toward Dior, Sekkisei or Shiseido. The Dior Snow line seems to be pretty popular, Shiseido and Sekkisei are popular/ made for Asians so it seems that they should work.

 Dior Snow : White Reveal Essence: concentration of T.E.C.™ to target existing dark spots and help prevent the new ones. Moisturizes, illuminates and firms to fully reveal the vibrant translucency of a fresh, luminous complexion. 1.7 oz. $115



Sekkisei





White Lucent Intensive Spot Targeting Serum: An intensive treatment for skin with dark spots or acne marks. Hydrates & include 4MSK, m-Tranexamic Acid, and Multi-Target Vitamin C target spots at every process of melanin formation for clear, even-toned skin. Natural Yomogi Extract catalyzes the elimination of pigmentation.  $125

 



I will probably do some research and update this blog later & post which brand I finally decide to purchase. What whitening products do you buy if you use, if you don’t, have you consider it?

Day 13 : the Town/City You reside

Day 13 : the Town/City You reside

I currently live in CA. It’s a big place I know, I don’t know if I’m really in love with the place. The only thing I love is the food, which I cannot live without. The prices are ok, some pretty cheap, which only happens when you have tons of places competing, =  I have a lot of choices to choose from <3 Some of my favorite food are...

Taiwanese shaved Ice

Beard Papa..YUM! O & i tried this once in China is no good! But here in US is GOOD !



I ate a lot of korean BBQ lately. Though quickly into the meal I would often think I'm eating too much meat & then realized i'm grading the food solely based on the side dishes! haha

Other then food, I know I do appreciate the friends that I made here. When I was away at college, I did also made friends but when school was over everyone was scattered back to their home town or next destination. Thanks for the internet; I am still able to KIT with them. However, as we all know, nothing is better than the times we have together with each other in person..<3

So what ( would) make you decide to stay where to live?

day 6/7/8

Day 6/7/8

Day 6: A representation of your day- what do you do?

Well, I go to work.So average about 8 hours on the computer screen.. it’s not very good to my eyes but time goes by so fast, I never know when to take a rest.

I am a lazy little girl so I never had the habit of going to the gym until about this year, which I think it’s quite an accomplishment since I go to the gym by myself now, totally motivated by ME! A lot of times I would go to gym during lunch time, so I can go home right after work. Other times I go after work because I like going to gym classes.

Day 7 something you ate today-

O I wish I took a picture before I ate it.. I usually don’t eat breakfast, but today I was handed a subway breakfast sandwich.. YUM. =)

For lunch, I always try to bring food to save $. However lately I been eating a whole lot of McDonalds because of my little hope of winning something with the monopoly.. haha. But I have to say the more I eat the more disappointed I am. It’s kind of obvious that they do not let out certain pieces so NO ONE can win. I mean, I don’t know if anyone actually wins, but I saw this dude with a little MOUNTAIN of monopoly pieces ( no joke) & well.. when I left it seems that he hasn’t win anything yet.

Day 8 Something You Dislike.

If we’re talking about some THING I dislike, nothing really comes to my mine other than food… but if we’re talking about some ONE, then I would say cheaters, liars & ppl who think they know everything.

 

It’s obvious why we hate cheater & liars. As for people who think they know everything..you know what, they don’t. They’re arrogant and think highly of themselves. All the educated people that I respect are humble. They know that no matter what, there will be people out there who are smarter/ more knowledageable & I think that’s true; Geniuses can’t be a genius in EVERYTHING, right?

 

 

alright that's all for now. I think I might do another blog soon that's not relate to the 31 days o blogging.~~~ =) jiya ne.

Day 3/4/5 something i bought, inside my bag n more.

Alright, I think it’s time that I make up some of the entries that I missed ^^

Day 3: Something you bought today.

Well, over the weekend I bought a pair of slippers. It’s not too exciting because I only bought it when my feet were dying from my heels. I seriously think my college days had “untrained” all my hard work of heel days in High School. Funny, right? You would think it should be the other way around. I wore mostly only slippers in college.. at first I thought it was ugly, later I found it to be so comfortable..

Although I am on a mission to train myself to wear heels again. Heels really make a huge difference. For example, you can’t really slouch in heels (unless it’s super low heels). Which means it helps with our posture and looking confident when walking!

Let me show you what I wanted to buy though.

It’s pretty nice, especially since the heels really fit me perfectly. I think it’s the same height as my highest heels. It was at Nordstrom rack, so it was half price then the original, but still cost $150. So I had to think about it. Plus I really need to find out how to organize my shoes.I haven’t bought shoes for a while but I kind of have a small place...I was going to organize my place yesterday to clean up a new home for my shoes.. But ended up didn’t.. There’s just not enough time in a day!

btw i bought more mcdonalds today... hoping that I would win.. usually I don't play this stuff.. let's hope I'm lucky ^^

Day 4: what’s in your bag?

My bag.. OoO.. I am ashamed to say it.. but it’s a little bit busy.. I throw everything in it, so I have to clean it out once in a while.

The only thing I really have problem with is notes, which is what really makes my bag messy. I like to take notes, but it’s hard for me to keep a notebook. I either forget to bring it or I feel like it’s too heavy to bring it everywhere.I also don’t really like to buy calendar books that have a huge space for every single day. Since I might not have that much to write in everyday, it feels like a waste. However, some days I would have a lot to write for, especially on shopping days. So yeah, I have a little problem here.

Day 5: Your humble abode

I don’t think I would show my home picture here in the web, besides, I don’t think I am rich enough for people to be curious about my house. I feel like usually the “popular” people on the web are somewhat rich. For example, all those makeup artist weblogs, I like them, they make good tutorials, however, how many of us can spend $18-25 dollars on a single lip gloss or eye shadow palette for “tutorial” purpose? Not to say they don't deserve the fame for what they do, ( if they r good, they deserve the fame!) I just don't think I fall into the category

Back to the point, I think internet, blog, TV, whatever, we are all looking for something that we have not seem before or have not seem often enough. So here is something you probably don’t see every day, a picture of a homeless man with a working laptop… wow. I think he probably have a better laptop than I do.. since my laptop’s battery life is super short ( need a new one asap..i'm thinking mac..) Haha.

O look & he have a dog too which I personally don’t have one.. ha..

Well, that's all for now. jiya ne <3

Day 2: Someone you adore – 5 reasons why

I think this topic is very difficult. I think most people will post their friends here. & well the obvious reasons why because they're friends, they support me, they're sweet.. etc. & I guess that's what I am SUPPOSE to post here, cuz these topics are suppose to let the audience know more about ME. But I decided not to do that, because we all have friends and I think it's impossible to understand why we personally adore our friends unless we know the history.. & well, that would be a long ass blog! ( plus, I would have to post too many ppl here... I can't just pick one)

Well, if I post someone who is not my personal friend, it is still difficult.. but let me try.

In the Music world.. I adore...

1) Chopin

Obviously, I adore him for his music. He lived in the Romantic Era, with the piano available as it is today. You can use a lot of pedal with his music, & I love using pedals because it's much less likely to hear a broken phrase. I won't elaborate too much since we all know who he is.

2) Sergei Rachmaninoff (English: Rachmaninov)

He is a Russian Pianist, live in between Late Romantic and 20th century Era of music. I think the blend is great, because a lot of 20th century music include too much dissonance sounds (unpleasant sounds). It is still music but difficult to listen and understand it unless you did the research. For Rachmaninoff, I think he had just enough dissonance but not too much, thus, it is still pretty easy for me to listen. His music is very powerful with lots of strong characters.

3) Christina Aguilera

I know, she's completely different then the two persons above. I am kind of scared that I put them in the same category. I adore Christina, I love her voice. If I have a genie, I would wish to have her voice!

In the Modeling World .. I adore..

Heidi Klum

There are too many beautiful people out there, it would be impossible to say who is the most beautiful. For me, I think a beautiful body definitely needs some curves, so I crossed out all the skinny people! I think Heidi is so beautiful, especially baby after baby, I hope I will be able to do that too!

In the movie world... I adore..

Johnny Depp.

NO I DON"T THINK he's hot. & actually I don't understand why girls would think that way, unless it's because they are truly overpower by his talents. Ok, I don't know anything about acting, but I do feel like he's one of the only actor who truly transforms in to the character that he is playing. Most of the time I don't even recongize that it's Johnny Depp in the movie unless I was told so.

oh... So I guess instead of someONE I adore with Five reasons why, I ended up with Five persons I adore. haha. Well, close enough!.
