Pretty n Pink

SOOOOO as a treat/to make up for not posting yesterday (and almost today) I did a makeup "tutorial" for you guys. Well that was the plan anyway. You see what had happened was... Long story short unbeknownst to me my camera shut off halfway thru the look. SMH. I was so mad. Anyway I still managed to put a lil something together. Enjoy. (If you can't watch the video I added pictures at the bottom so you can see the completed look. Thanks for watching!

SN: I'm using some of the new brushed I ordered last week.

Eye Do Too

It's nights like these that I wish I made YouTube videos (makeup tutorials). BUT since I don't I'll just watch a couple (...hundred, literally).

I really want to try BLUE lipstick...or some other random/"crazy" color. But I'm the proverbial "all dressed up and no where to do go" girl. So that probably won't happen anytime soon.

In the mean time check out these lovely ladies and their looks.

Enjoy.

This is like a rambling rant...but in my OOTD post I said that i wasn't gonna wear my leather jacket cuz of the cold/snow...turns out ALL of it melted!

Can you believe that, this place is so...I don't even know. If I hadn't seen snow on some cars I wouldn't have believed people that said it had snowed. Lets not forget the fact that it's the MIDDLE OF APRIL. I guess global warming isn't taking a back seat this year.

grains of sand

So for some reason high school went by extra slow, but now that I'm in college I feel as though it's passed me. I went to sleep a freshman and some how woke up a junior. School started the 8th and already two weeks from now I have an Organic Chemistry test (the room is spinning! like I feel ultra dizzy, I'll try and ignore it.). Anyway where has all this time gone? I don't know.

Not that any of that is any excuse to not keep up with blogging. I'll do better. Weekends are definitely more open, dispite my constant attempts to study O Chem (the BANE of my existence)!!
Any who I'll be taking pictures of my room (I just got a poster...it's HUGE, so I'm motivated) and posting them.

I've been good otherwise and settling in. There's an Alpha (Black Frat) party tonight that two of my close friends and I are going to, as well as a party tomorrow that we'll all be attending. It should be fun. I'm excited, anything to take my mind off of sulfides/thioethers and the acid catalyzed ring opening of epoxides. Just typing that gave me a headache (bright side the room is no longer spinning).

Anyway I'm gonna continue to study before my ASA board meeting (African Student Association).

Catch ya on the flip side.

[i’ve decided to sign my more “personal” blogs with my “name” instead of my alias]

Depression, Anxiety, && Cravings!!!

Ok, so I might be overreacting just a little, but what do you expect I'm a -AHOLIC! So, story of my life, my father "blocked" YouTube! AHHH, or something to that effect all I know is is that I can get to the site, BUT it's all screwed up and I can't do anything! UGH!!!! FOR REAL, this man holds my sanity in his hands! I LIVE for YouTube, I watch TV on there, I watch videos, listen to music, talk to friends, learn hairstyle! OMG!! I'm suffering from serious withdrawal symptoms! SOMEBODY SAVE ME!

I have a video to upload! I want to make another video! OMG! I can't breath, I can't eat, I can't sleep! I NEED it!

Ok, in all seriousness I can do all of those things. And luckily I still have this blog, Twitter, & Facebook to settle my social networking fix. BUT still my life is still somehow NOT COMPLETE!

On the upside I move into my apartment in 8 days [meaning I FINALLY get free reign on my Internet usage, no more blocked sites, no more time limits, no more BS]!!!

Top 5 AHOLICs [3]

Internet Edition

5) Skype
4) Blogger
3) Youtube [F3MB0T's channel]
2) Facebook
1) Twitter [F3MB0T's profile]

These are pretty self explanatory. If you have an account or have just been on the sites you'll know, ESPECIALLY while in the depths of boredom.

Skype is like MSN Messenger or AOL messenger but with video call. or just phone calling. You can make phone calls to land lines or cell phone (at an extra cost) but all in all it's a GREAT way to stay in touch with loved ones across the country and the world.

I've known about Twitter for a LONG time, but my father being the person that he is (a computer nut) BLOCKED the site. So I couldn't get on the website at all :(. BUT while we were down in Hawaii it worked and I checked it out, and then when we got back home to the mailland I noticed that I had access to the website. I was ECSTATIC!! So I created an account. At first I wasn't that into it (as my Facebook status eventually proclaimed) and I almost deleted it. HOWEVER I stuck around for a little bit long and got HOOKED. The best part of Twitter (compared to Facebook)...I CAN UPDATE VIA MY CELL PHONE...YES [air pump]. [This was pre-smartphone]
Anyway I'm getting the hang of the tweets, tweeting and all the new lingo (# and @'s) but there is one I don't understand yet (RT) but give me time. I LOVE it.
Follow me and I'll Follow you. I'm looking for REAL people on Twitter, celebs are ok, BUT I'd prefer regular people to spammers and stars.

What Internet addictions are you enjoying? There's plenty to choose from, so take a dive.

P.S. Hawaii was FABULOUS! It definitely gets the AHOLIC stamp of ADDICTION!

Oh My GOSH a SALE!!!

Ok, so I have a shopping HABIT. ESPECIALLY online shopping! The easy accessibility of the store from one location (my bed) it's just too convenient. I can be online for HOURS just looking through the items, building up my shopping cart, and never actually order anything.

The worst part is that I fall in love with some of the items, but I know deep down that I don't need it (I already have a TON of clothes and shoes). But I just can't help myself (breaks into "Baby Got Back"). Sometimes I save the page on my browser with the intent of placing the order, I'm only deluding myself. With nearly $200 worth of stuff in the basket/cart I can't actually afford it, well not on my own, and I HATE asking my dad for that much money at one time, esp for something I don't really need.

Anyway I was out today, for nearly 3 hours, and I bought NOTHING. I was so proud of myself. Although it was not really that great of an accomplishment. I didn't go to my favorite store so it's more of an empty victory. Had I gone there (Target) I would've surely spent money. I live in relatively small town (20,000 people) in comparison to Minneapolis or St. Paul where i go to school. So for me Target is as good as it gets without having to driving an hour to get to a "REAL" mall.

So to add to my bad habit, sometimes I feel that I NEED to buy something just because it's on sale. Anyone ever get that feeling? (What about the enjoyment from shopping online?) I don't know, but I'm sure I'm not alone.

Favorite online shops/sites

• Forever21
• AmiClubWear
• DJ Premium/Dr Jays

Birthed from Boredom

So I'm not normally on the Internet as often as I have been this past summer, certainly not during the school year. However this summer (with no job) I've found that I have endless time on my hands, both a BURDEN and a BLESSING.

I've been able to sleep till whenever and stay up late. No homework etc. It's been FANTASTIC. But I've also been without mental stimulation (unless I'm reading) and my closest friends. In the depths of my boredom I spent my days on Facebook, which was ok, however no one else was really online, so I remained bored. I stumbled onto YouTube, which had previously been a source for music. I found that it also held an unending supply of entertainment, and information. I've learned so much, from hair and makeup tips to new yoga positions and how to naturally whiten my teeth. I was inspired by this wealth of knowledge to make my own videos.

I find that I learn/discover the most when I least expect it, and often via random occurrences/situations (i.e. being on YouTube or Google).

The bottom line is, out of my boredom and passion for journaling and reflection cam "Ramblings From a Self-Professed -AHOLIC". "AHOLIC" in terms of an obsession, or over use of (not necessarily alcohol consumption).

a budding OBSESSION

OK so I've been journaling all my life. Kept a diary for FOREVER, even did a shared diary with a friend early in high school (I'm not sure why we stopped, but it was probably for the best).

But anyway, in 2004 I started an online journal/diary on Opendiary.com. I ended up losing the password and created a new account (unfortunate I know). I'm not sure what's going on with them right now, but I missed it. Soon after I joined Livejournal.com but i didn't keep up with it after the lose of my previous online diaries. After awhile, I think when the online journaling caught on, MSN created one, and of course I joined it, and a few other sites subsequently.

So essentially I'm not a newbie when it comes to online journaling/blogging.

I am an AVID Facebook ADDICT and have yet to join Twitter (it's inevitable that I will) also I started a "semi" (for lack of a better word) Vblog on YouTube (another ADDICTION). However things have come to a halt since my camera is out of commission for now :(.

I've been meaning to set up a sister blog with my Vblog (link above) on YouTube for a while and with the onset of pure boredom this summer NOW has become the perfect time for such an endeavor.

I love LOVE LOVE sharing my life/thoughts/emotions, whether through images or words (I make no claims at being a wordsmith, a photog, or director/actor...merely an AHOLIC).

I look forward to blogging....
