going to ATLANTA!
well, technically, it's to a tiny town right outside of Atlanta for m family reunion & hopefully some sight-seeing. haven't been since 2006 & this is my first time ever with my mommy, it's gonna be so weird! we loved it down there so much & that was always our summer getaway. we get t-shirts every year with everyone's name on it, & i've they've passed away, there's a little star next to their name. this year there'll be one by my mom's name =[ booooo for death. but she's with me always.
i plan on taking some of her ashes down there & scattering them, because she LOVED it down there & she always felt so at home & so at peace there.
i'm so glad to get away, i need a vacation like mad.
anyway, this'll probably be my last post for a few days. i'm leaving Thursday morning & i'm busy all day tomorrow so i don't think i'll have time to blog.
don't miss me too much!
check back around tuesday-ish to read about my trip & see pics.
and i really wanna go to the Aquarium again, i went in 2006 & it was breathtaking.
see ya soon, babes.

what the hell ever happened to Sisqo?
i'm watching vh1 & there's some shiity movie & he's in it. this movie is from like 2002 probably. He like, dropped off the face of the earth.
i miss his perverted music & silver hair.
damnit, Victoria's Secret!
so, i went there today, i just needed some gloss (LOVE their Beauty Rush glosses, btw, i may review 2 of them tomorrow)
But, on my way to the cash register where they keep the glosses, my friend & i look around a little bit and i notice there's no Blossoming Romance. that was my FAVORITE scent there! what the hell dude?!?! ugh, i hate when they discontinue scents!
i'm so bummed =[

my first LUSH product!
yay, i got a FREE bath bomb! i was so excited.
me & my bff were walking through Macy's & we were in the cosmetics section & we passed the Lush counter and they were doing some weird giveaway. you had to draw a bear (yeah, i know) & you won a free bath bomb! so i drew a VERY crude one. it was terrible. it had flowers & trees & a smiling sun & shiz around it. i was a true ar-teest. yes ma'ams!
anyway, the bathbomb i got is called "white wedding". they don't have it up on the site, i guess because it was limited edition, but the packaging says it's "filled with indulgent, soothing & smoothing oils such as Ylang Ylang, Jasmine, Rose & Bergamot".
it smells pretty good!
haven't used it yet, but i will soon, i'm pretty excited!
6.27.2009

lovely words
If you enter this world knowing you are loved and you leave this world knowing the same, then everything that happens in between can be dealt with--Michael Jackson.
Michael Jackson.
omgosh, am i the only one in shock? i'm not saying i knew the man, but this is like, devastating!
we all grew up listening to him & we've all seen "Thriller" a million times. and well know his songs. think about it; he's literally probably the most famous person in the WORLD. wow.
he is an absolute LEGEND & will always remain so.
pray for his family, friends & all his fans.
hearing about people dying usually saddens me somewhat, but this is just... unreal.
wow, just wow...
btw, the reports are still conflicting and i don't think we'll truly know until later what's REALLY going on. if he's still alive, HANG ON, if not. RIP.

high school.
recently, i've been thinking & reminiscing and i can't believe how much i miss high school!
now, i didn't go to a "normal" high school, well, i guess the word "normal" is relative. anywho, i went to an all-girls catholic school. sounds like hell to some people, but i LOVED it. i made some of the best friends ever & when you're around all girls, you really get to see who you REALLY are because the pressure of looking cute for boys & worrying what they say/think wasn't an issue. now, we did have an all boy's school directly next door but we never really saw much of each other except before & after school and once when we had a joint assembly for a chastity talk. haha.
i don't know what really made me write this. i'm bored & i felt like blogging SOMETHING & this has been on my mind a lot. life was so much easier for the most part. didn't have to worry about a damn thing. well,i was having a lot of issues during that time about my dad not being around because i went to a school where i'd guess 85% or more of the students' parents are still MARRIED. i think you'd only see a statistic like that at a Catholic school, lol. aside from that, it was pretty good.
ohhh boy do i miss my plaid skirt, polo shirt & vest. also i loved wearing tube socks as knee socks (HA!) and last but not least, the SADDLE SHOES! yes, they were mandatory! that was even out school mascot.
boy oh boy what i'd do to go back for 4 more years. life was so much simpler. but, life goes on...
here's me & my best friend ever. this was on "sophomore day". it's when the sophomore class picks their class colors, mascot, flower, quote, etc. if i'm doing the math right, this was february 2003. wow. ha.

Hooking Up [read, think, COMMENT ladies!]
so, i've been wondering lately...
1. what does hooking up mean to you? just a kiss or ALL the way?
2. good idea or bad idea?
3. how long before meeting someone should you start getting somewhat physical?
4. when does it become romance & not just a physical act with some dude?
answer, i'd love to hear what you think!

guys, i am so excited for this movie!
if you guys haven't heard of it, it's the same guy that was in "Borat", his name is Sasha Baren Cohen & he's super hot, btw.
In this movie he plays a gay Austrian. the premise is basically like a prank reality show. it's all real & he pranks real people & companies.
It comes out July 10 (which would've been my mom's 55th b-day & she thought he was SO funny, maybe it's just a coincidence, but she must be telling me I need to go see it. thanks mommy =])
check it out y'all!

Happy Father's Day!

"it's too big, it's too wide, it's too strong, it won't fit..."
by now, we've all heard that song. it's called "Ego" by the very talented Beyonce.
and i can't help but think that it's secretly about a pee pee!
idk, maybe it's just me, but i don't think i have a dirty mind.
i mean, i really like the song, it's different, but it just seems to be filled with innuendoes.
eh...
anywho, here's the vid. she's looking beautiful & fabulous as always.
they disabled the embedding. i hate that!

Jon & Kate Plus 8
I love this show. I wasn't a fan at first, I found it a bit boring, but I started watching it while I was away at school & I was hooked. The kids are sooo cute & they say the funniest things. But, as well all have seen & heard, the parents' marriage has gotten out of control. They've been on the covers of tabloids non-stop with all these accusations & we'll probably never know what's really going on, but it's not our business really, even though they are reality tv stars.
For the sake of their kids, they absolutely have got to quit the show. It makes me sad because i really think they're gonna get a divorce & i know first hand how hard it is to be a kid when your parents are divorcing, but i'm sure it's even harder for them because they're in the public eye.
They're supposed to be making some announcement on Monday and I imagine it's either that the show is ending, or that they're getting divorced.
Either way, I hope everything works out. They seemed like such a good family at first, even though Kate seems to be a little bossy, lol.

Update on the E.L.F. Flat poweder brush!
omgosh ladies.
i was using my new stuff this morning & i used my flat brush to put powder under my eyes and it seemed to do a good job.
later on, i noticed all these black hairs on my clothes & i was like, "where in the hell is this coming from?" and just now, i'm getting ready to go out, and i use my brush again, and there's brush hairs all over my face! that's where it was coming from! the stupid brush is not only shedding, it's coming out in CLUMPS. do not get this brush ladies!

Megan Fox...
... good grief.
i'm totally straight, but i'd go gay for her. no joke.
she is BEAUTIFUL. her blues & her dark hair make her look so exotic & her pouty lips. i sound like a total creeper right now, but i don't care, lol.
i also love how honest she is. she talks openly about how she smokes pot (not condoning cuz it's ILLEGAL), how much she loves sex, her political views & i like how she admits that she's insecure sometimes, just like everyone else.
her hair & makeup are always flawless too. she doesn't look too overdone. & seriously, her hair is like, freakishly shiny. and her makeup always looks fresh & dewy and young.
here's some eye candy. enjoy.
can i be her in my next life?
E.L.F. haul!
woohoo! my stuff finally got here! i got 10 things.
check it out, bbs.
here's all of it:
#1]
flat powder brush...
i think i'm gonna try & use this to apply foundation. i've seen people online doing it, but i feel like this brush may be a bit too soft. we shall see.
#2] angled foundation brush
i already have a foundation brush. a sonia kushak one (from target), but i figured i'd try this angled one & it's a bit wider too.
#3] navy blue nail polish
i saw some Chanel nail polish online a while ago, but i REFUSE to pay more than $3 or $4 for a bottle of nail polish & for some reason i couldn't find a dupe. i looked everytime i stepped into a beauty supply store. but i finally found some! the pic doesn't do it justice, it's so pretty up close! it's nice & shimmery. can't wait to rock this =]
#4]bubble gum pink nail polish.
i have a million different pink nail polishes, but i really like this one! not too light & not too bright. i think i'm gonna polish my nails this color tonight.
#5] eye shadow blending brush.
eh, i just wanted one, lol.
#6] an eyelash curler.
i had one, but who the hell knows where it is now... and this one has a place to put your fingers which is nice.
#7] eyeliner brush.
good for when you want to use an eyeshadow as an eyeliner. also, you could try smudging/smoking your eyeliner with this.
#8] concealer brush.
this brush is super tiny & it'll be good to get all this icky little things you want to cover up. zits, acne scars, dark spots, whatever. i will DEFINITELY be using this all the time. ha.
#9] oil absorbing sheets.
ladies, we all know what these are for. when you get oily during the day! ugh. now, i like looking dewy, but sometimes i get flat out oily. kinda sick, right? this came with 50 in a pack. i can't wait to see how well they work! these are coming with me EVERYWHERE.
and last but not least...
#10] black eyeliner pen.
i think this is my favorite thing i got. it's liquid, but it has a felt tip so it's firm, but not too firm. and it goes on nice & dark.
i wrote on my wrist to show how precise it is, lol. boy my signature looks ugly.
and here's an example of how thin or thick you can get the line

For those of you unfamiliar with E.L.F., it stands for Eyes Lips Face. it's a great brand where most things are $1. yes, that's right, just one dollar! and they are GREAT quality for the price! we're in a recession, but we can still be fab! they have EVERYTHING-foundation, concealer, eyeshadow/liner, blush, highlighters, brushes, lashes, lip stick & gloss, lotion & they even have mineral products now!
for those who don't know the website. here it is ----->
unbeWEAVEable. for real.
who did this & who told her this ish was cute?
i'm also concerned about that tan line... why were her bikini cups so narrow?
smh...
The Duggars
you guys may not all know her by name, but she's the mom of that family that has 18 kids. yep, 18 kids. the oldest one is only 21, so she's been pregnant damn near non-stop.
they have a show called "18 kids & counting" and i've been watching it recently because i was curious to see how these people live. they always kind of seemed like some weird people from one of those bizarre religious sects, but they seem so normal. it's kind of sweet actually how the older kids take care of the little ones & how close everyone is. it makes me smile to see happily married for so long.
Anyway, i can't be the only who wonders this... but can you imagine what her stomach looks like! idk, maybe it's just me. but after being pregnant, what, 16 times? (she has 2 sets of twins i believe)it must hang over like a plastic bag filled with pudding. and her vag... man. those babies must slip out so damn easily. kinda of like throwing a pencil down the grand canyon? well, maybe not.

America's Next Top Model's WORST makeovers.
1. Brittany from cycle 8.
bright red sew in weave.
this picture doesn't even do it justice. it was matted & stiff as a damn board.
2. Tiffany from cycle 5 (i think?)
Her weave looked like that crap you get in the random aisles if the beauty supply store. you know, the $5.99 for 14 inches crap.
i can't find any good pics of it, but y'all remember.
3. Jenah from cycle 9
just one of many where they went TOO blond & put in some crappy, stringy extensions. and toward the end, it got all dry & icky looking & they never touched up the poor girl's roots!
4. Cassandra from cycle 4 (i think, sorry i'm so bad with the cycles, there's so many!)
in this picture it looks ok, but i hated it. they claimed they weren't cutting her hair "just because", but i don't believe that. it didn't flatter her face at all! and they wanted to cut it some more! it was too much & not a good look.
5. Michelle from cycle 4.
Oh holy hell. it was a mess. it was WAY TOO BLONDE! no dimension, just one, flat color. & as time went on, it turned yellow as hell & it looked dryer than hay that took a trip through hell. and on top of that, it was poofy as hell. it was a hot ass mess.
and again, i can't find a good picture, lol. sorry dolls, but i'm sure you guys remember.
However, i must say, the absolute WORST one was Saleisha, who i blogged about earlier.
ciao bellas.

fug hair.
so, i'm watching reruns of ANTM & today, cycle 9 (i think?) is on, the one with Saleisha Stowers. I remember watching it & she was so cute with her curly hair when she started the competition, but then makeover day came, and they gave her this hot mess:
it was SO DISTRACTING. is this not literally, the ugliest weave you've ever seen? they go to these top salons & this is the best they do? Lord, they should've taken her to a salon in the 'hood & gotten her hooked up for like, 90% cheaper and a million times better. She looks like Ringo Starr in the '70's!
am i lying? NOPE.
smh Antm, smh...

wet seal mini haul [yesss]
so, i bought a dress from them online & it was too much of a hassle to return it via mail, so i just returned it in store. and they don't give cash refunds, so i just exchanged it for some jewelry. here's what i got:
this cute owl necklace...
i've been seeing these all around, idk what it is with owls, but it seems to be hot for this summer.
some white chandelier-ish earrings
i've been needing some white earrings...
and i also got these silver dangly ones
they look better NOT laying down on a flat surface, lol.
i love this necklace
i don't wear a lot of gold, but i thought all the charms on it were super cute.
and this is BY FAR my favorite thing that i got that day:
i've been wanting one of these HUGE rings for the longest, i'm so happy i found it. but when i got home, i showed my aunt & she took it off my hand to get a better look at it, dropped it & it broke in two pieces! omggg, i was distraught, but she told me she'd replace it. so, i'm gonna get a new one monday. i hope they have 1 left in my size or i'm gonna be a sad, sad girl =[

(319): yeah, i liked him til i heard he had a sac that could apparently smother my face.
i pray that someday, someone will text me something similar to this so i can submit it to textsfromlastnight.com.

Lady Gaga [closet raid #3]
okay, seriously. who else but her could pull off this...
yes, she has on a pink rubber pencil skirt & a black pvc bra. and on top of that, this picture was taken in January in London. doesn't her body look sick in it? ah, i love it.
Then there was this bubble dress. now usually a bubble dress is one of those dresses where it's like, poofy on the bottom because the lower part of the dress is folded under. idk how to explain it [lol], but you ladies know what i meant. but this is lady gaga's interpretation of a bubble dress:
it's LITERALLY covered in bubbles.
and when i saw this, i realized how BAMF she is.
it's literally a HAIR BOW. haha. i love it, i love it, I LOVE IT!
i wish i could actually pull this off, but alas...
oh, to live in Hollywood land. you can wear anything. boooo for boring old Detroit/the corporate world.
Anyway, i'm gonna go ahead and call it while the game is still early:
Lady Gaga IS THE style icon of 2009
just sayin'...
Aside from her delicious style, what about that music of hers?
I love it! it's bordering on the edge of techno without being annoying as hell. I wouldn't go so far as to say she has the greatest voice ever, like I can't imagine her singing a ballad, but something about her voice is great. It goes so well with the beats in her songs. She seems like a TRUE artist & there aren't many of those now. I also love her blatant honesty. In magazine interviews, she claims all she wanted for Valentine's Day was "carbs & sex", and while I don't agree with this, she admits to "starving" herself to stay skinny. Boooo. I hope teenage girls don't follow that, but I hope they pay attention to her individuality & that she's not a total cookie cutter.
I hope she keeps up the good work && has many, MANY more hits. I love to dance in my room to her songs, ha. she gets me so pumped for like, everything.
p.s., has anyone ever noticed that she looks just like Amy Winehouse, minus the crackheaded-ness?
