Bright eyed and bushy tailed

Surprise! Guess where I AM!!!! I’m in Newfoundland.

Well, I guess you got theat from the previous post because I actually have been blogging from home for a couple of days now. Unfortunately tomorrow is my last day home and I get back on the airplane way too early on Tuesday morning, work that day AND have a dentist appointment to replace a filling after I get off work. I think I need a couple of shots of Capresso to get me through that busy filled day. Eugh, even talking about it is making me dread it.

So haiiii. I was up bright and early this morning to watch the local “Tele 10” road race where all my relatives, neighbours and even boyfriend raced then long 10 mile journey around town. I’m so proud! He placed 20th overall in a race with 2,300 people. NUTS!

That’s all for now…

J.Crew adore

I really need this dress. In that exact color. I may need an augmentation to fill that out like the model does, unfortuch.

I haven’t shopped at J.Crew online before. That, and the fact our Canadian dollar isn’t that great right now. I know you sometimes make purchases at J.Crew, do you get whomped with duty fees? I really really love this dress. I wouldn’t know what size to pick out since I’ve never ever tried anything on at this store before. Fail :(

I showed my boyfriend this dress and he mentioned that I wore something similar to his engineering graduation back in 2005 (okay not really). However, the dress that I wore back then was borrowed from my best friend’s sister, and I actually loved it but for obvious reasons couldn’t keep it lol. A trip to the states in the near future is a must folks, a must.

I’m actually saving up for another year gym membership from blogging. When I get half way I’m going to meet that amount of money that is sitting in my PayPal and “match it” so to speak. I usually end up purchasing a gym membership once a year and only go for 5 months and then QUIT. This time — I WILL NOT!

I wrote it here, so I wouldn’t forget, and hopefully you all will hold me to it! :)

Put your face on

meOh man. I had totally forgot that I had this post sitting in my drafts folder. I NEVER go there in my wordpress. Well.. here it is, a few months late!

So, I picked up a new eye shadow from MAC cosmetics online in the color Graphology and immediately loved it. I’ve been oggling over purple looks for a while and decided that last week sometime was the perfect night to try it out since I had nothing else to do. A bit late on posting the photos, but I love them and I think they turned out well.

Of course, it turns out good when you have nowhere to go. But when you try to make it look good when you’re going out somewhere, it never turns out right. Why is that!? So annoying. Some of the images are click-able, but some are not (like the first four below) because I really needed to get my eyebrows waxed at the time. They’re all nice and done now though! I also realize I look very different in most of these photos. Whatevv..

Then another snap of me, right before I washed it off. Like my XXXL over sized Google “baseball” shirt? I received it as swag when I used to work for an internet marketing company! Fit for a pyjama shirt, I say.
