Mundane Sunday

I don’t normally post some of my “work” up here on my public website. But I thought I’d show you  a little something I did last night. Yea, on a Saturday night. How fun are we?  (While BF was napping, for a longgg time hehe). Though it’s not really work. Just wasting time around in Photoshop, for an estimated five minutes, tops. My white shirt in the edited photo looks like I’m wearing some satin/silky top. Fail. Eventually we watched a movie I’ve never heard of Lucky number SLeven. We rented a blue ray last night courtesy of Rogers Video … BF got a free movie rental for being such a “great rogers customer” or some crap like that. Anyway, regardless of Rotten Tomatoes giving it a mere 51%, it actually wasn’t a bad movie. Unlike other movies, when we watch it on BF’s projector and amazing comfy couch, I usually fall asleep within fifteen minutes tops. I assume it’s because it’s a lot more cozier than sitting in the seats at the theater. I didn’t even nap yesterday! Weekends are for napping. Shame on me.

Hmm.

Soccer is canceled tonight, we found this out on Thursday (even though it’s written on our schedule, I guess nobody really reviews the schedule until last minute then realizes we don’t have a game, so we all send out a mass e–mail telling our players lol). I’m assuming it’s because of the gotdang Superbowl, that nobody up here really even cares about. But, do what ya gotta do I suppose. Hopefully we’ll be able to make up for it after all of our other games have been played. Signing up for outdoor this week. It’ll be a huge change as I’m use to now playing twice a week, where as in outdoor it’s only 1 game per week, and rarely I go to practice because I feel like we don’t do much there whatsoever. I’m going to get an ass whooping for sure (as is everyone I assume) getting out on the grass for the first time in April/May (whenever the season starts). The length of the field will be soooo huge, and the nets… oh gosh, the goals we’ll all think we’ll get, because of the size of the net! haha!

I feel like going to the mall today to spend my $50 generic gift certificate for the whole entire mall. I have no idea what I want to buy, but I want to spend it wisely and get as much as I can, out of the fifty bucks. Oh what fun. I need socks.

All in all, this weekend was pretty restfull for me, considering… (let’s not get into details, shall we). So? What did you all do this weekend?

Must see movies, you haven’t seen?

Before going to the theater, boyfriend and I always check out Rotten Tomatoes before going to see a flick. It has to get over 65% in order for us to put our money into it.

So, I’d like to know what are some of the movies you all just recently watched (and enjoyed)? Doesn’t have to be new releases at all. But this past weekend I saw Gran Torino, (77%) and Slumdog Millionaire (received a whopping 94%). I haven’t watched many Clint Eastwood movies, even though Eastwood is my boyfriends favorite actor—such as Dirty Harry movies. I just didn’t feel like I was into his films to be honest. Not really a Western fan. I wasn’t that interested in seeing Gran Torino even! But, I’ve gotta say I loved Eastwood’s acting in that film. I loved his grunting anger directed at basically everyone but his own dog. I laughed really loud and hard at some points, (and got poked for laughing too hard hehe) mainly because I  have never did see Clint act in that way (Apparently he acts quite similar in Million Dollar Baby—Haven’t seen that movie either. Whoops.) however boyfriend felt that the acting on the other parts, lacked a bit. I agree.

Slumdog Millionaire? We went because it got rave reviews, and everyone was totally raving about how great it was. Well, I did enjoy it. Just not as much as I thought I would have, mainly because I think it was too hyped up? Not my type of film? I’m not one to watch a movie over and over again, and this for sure will not be on my list to re-watch. Just … eh. I don’t know what to think of it. I don’t really want to go into detail, in case you haven’t watched it yet. The story was ok, just not my type of movie you know? That’s okay too.

I really want to go on a renting–movie–rampage. I haven’t seen a lot of so–called awesome films. The Fight Club, Million Dollar Baby, The Godfather.  I know there’s other must–see movies, that have yet to be seen with my eyessssss. Rawwr, I feel so left out! haha.

I want to see Taken. I think that’s what it’s called? Where Neeson (or whatever is name is) has this  college age daughter who was abducted by some crazies while on vacation with her cousin/friend. I love thrillers like that.

Any recommendations?

BMF (Big MAC fan)

Ever since Connie posted her MAC cosmetics ‘haul’ and favorite youtube makeup guru videos, I’ve been addicted to watching them. I’ve found my already favorite MAC person. I’m not really into makeup that much as I don’t have patience for learning how to apply eyeshadow into a nice smokey look and in reality, I don’t have ‘enough’ colors to make a look, look great. Sooooooooo I guess I just watch and get jealous of their abilities. So my new favorite is this girl named Cheri, she’s super funny and a bit bubbly with a hint of vainity, and I just like her personality more so than anyone else I’ve watched thus far. So which is why I’m posting videos of her, on my very own website. Hoorah!

So here’s one video where she’s explaining how to apply liquid foundation flawlessly (of course, by MAC), and again another funny one where she’s talking about her favorite brushes. Yay. So la de dah, this whole post is all about Cheri and her abilities to look flawless. Isn’t she lucky. Getting a plug from someone who just spent 45 minutes looking at a few of her (long) videos. Keepin’ me entertained!

Her channel on youtube is MakeupByCheri. Subscribe if you so desire. I usually just bookmark…
