Beauty Hall!

 Today, I went to a local jewelry sale, Kmart, and a Gabes. A few days ago I went to Sephora! Here we go


 Sockks! I love going into Kmart because I can always find some awesome deals! The socks to the left and bottom were 29 cents! The JB to the right were buy one get one, and the TOP were 3 pairs of knee socks for 3.99 at Gabes. Who doesn't love the fun colors!

 Also, I picked up a new conditioner, and decided to share. 
Smashbox holiday Lip Gloss Set. Only 30 dollars 
for 6 lipglosses! (One is missing in the photo, I had wore
it today.) Great quality and pigmentatioin. 
Review soooon! (I had a 5$ off coupon so I only paid
around 25 for it)



 At the Jewelry sale, I only got two things.
1. A Chinese Hair clip for longer Hair.
2. An awesome accessory watch! The pattern
would brighten up any white or black top!
(Each were six dollars)
 Also at Sephora, I got the NYX Eyebrow Kit w/stencil. (5$ off coupon)
 I also bought a Revlon nail polish in Sweet Tart. I have it
on my nails now, and its so fun! A very nice way to 
liven-up a dark winter day.

 And lastly, I got Maybeline Lash Stiletto Mascara. I will let
you know how I liked it. ( 40% off in Kmart)



 Here are some photos I randomly snapped walking inside or outside my house. Do you like the quality? I do(:

Supernatural- Long Distance Call (2008)

I never watched Supernatural before today, and I saw a re-run from 2008 call long distance call. Of course, I was confused to what was going on, but I still enjoyed the show. I will start with the negative points.

  • "monsters" Look completely fake and animated. I know its  from a couple years ago and animation is better now, but it still looked to fake.
  • Darkness. A lot of the show was a little to dark to make out. I love it when shows dim the scene to make it look more ominous, but it got to the point where you couldn't make out who a character was.
Now, for what I DID like:

  • The acting was phenomenal!
  • The 30 minutes I saw made me want to watch more!
  • Action packed!





I have not watch enough to know my opinion yet, but have you ever watched the show? What do you think?

Perfect Chemistry

My head is still filled with thoughts of this book. I finished it last night, and this morning I woke up thinking about the characters. I bought this book a while ago, and then put off reading it. I think the cover just turned me off. BUT, I wish I would have read it sooner. From chapter one I was pulled in and couldn't get out. Simone Elkeles has a great way of writing, making scenes come alive right off the pages. The book was not at all what I expected, but it had its own "Perfect Chemistry". (Corny, I know) Also, I know enough Spanish to know what they were saying when the occasional line of Spanish was spoken. I cant really say much more without giving something away, but I will say to not think anything is guaranteed while reading this book. 5/5 stars.

Don't you hate it when...

You wear a new  shirt, and the dye wears off on your skin?
Okay, the shirt was only about $15 at a Dots, but this should not have happened. Today, I went to Walmart, Best Buy and my friend`s party. I got home about 30 minutes ago, but when I went to put pajamas on, I realized something happened. My shirt turned me purple!!! It was a new black shirt, but the dye mixed into my skin turning it purple where it rubbed off. I had a white tank top on underneath that has also been dyed. SO after 20 minutes of vigorous scrubbing, I have been de-purple-ified. Has this ever happened to you?

Bare Minerals- All over review.

I've tried various products from Bare Minerals, so I decided to do a collective review. 
Brushes- Face. Their face brushes are okay, not the best not the worst. They seem to be more bristly? Harder and more course then I would prefer, but they blend makeup well. 
Concealer- I love their concealer brush! It is the perfect size to fit in the creases of your nose, or a smooth surface such as your T-zone. It is soft, but not fluffy, so you can build up makeup using it. It is also one of those brushes that could be used for multiple purposes. 
Mascara- I LOVE their mascara! It doesn't flake, it makes my eyes pop, and stays on until you wash it off! Wonderful! But, it gives your lashes length, if you want volume, I would use something along the lines of Lash Blast.
Foundation- Really good quality, but not coverage. If you want just a light sheer covering its great. I used this in the summer because it was all that was needed. However, if you need something to cover blemishes, then I would use Maybelline Dream Liquid Mouse. (If you want light coverage but not mineral, use Mac`s tinted moisturizer.)
 
All in all, their products are great quality, but if your going to buy them, consider what they will be used for. (I.E     light/heavy coverage, all day/temporarily, ect.)
Hope I helped- Jordan!

Book Review: Brave New World.

Let me start by saying that these are my opinions and you may not feel the same way. However, I would advise you to NEVER read this book. I had to read it for a school project, but I am not sure why. The book is impossible to relate to and has no real purpose. The author had to be extremely careful setting up the plot though, so for that I give him props. I don't want to bash any book, but this is insane. To fully understand, read the book yourself, and you'll see.
Parts I could enjoy:
The difference between the two societies. (I dont want to give anything else away)
John`s mother
The pressure to fit in.
This is not the copy I read, but the same book. (google picture)
If you have read this book what do you think?

Outfit of the day+ fashion show!




 I'm going to do an outfit of the day today. Only because the outfit holds meaning. It is a floral, loose top which I added a belt to, and YMI jeans. I'm wearing regular brown pumps with this. Okay, so yesterday I went into Fashion Bug with a friend of mine, while we were waiting to go to lunch. (We went to panara if your wondering) So I got the jeans and the top, but while checking out the cashier asked me if I wanted to be in there annual fashion show! Of course  I said yes. So I will participate in the Fall fashion show with them! I was so flattered by the offer! She asked after my friend wondered off to look at a necklace, which I thought was nice, since the offer was not extended. It was very unexpected, a I am looking forward to it. Also, In the pictures above, ignore the mess behind me.

IM ALIVE!

Unacceptable! Its been 10 DAYS and I have not posted. I'm sorry, but I have to tell y`all whats been going on.
First, I sang at a local fair one night. It was a really fun night, but the mic system blew in the middle of my song and they had to fix it really quick. Everything ended up okay, but at one point the mic cut out and it made it sound like I cracked, but overall it was fun just being up on stage again(:
Next, I had an audition for a play, Return of the Glass Slipper. To audition, you had to sing a song from a Disney themed Broadway musical, and I sang Part of Your World from The Little Mermaid. They added a part in the play for me, so I don't have an official "Title". It will include singing, dancing, talking, and narrating. (Acting of course, also.) I will update as it progresses.
Then, I got to go audition to be an extra in a movie. How cool is that? I'm excited ha ha. I will also update that when I get contacted.
Next weekend I have to go to get filmed for possible commercial and acting parts.
 Now, I also got really sick. I got the flu for 2 days and now I have strep really bad. BUT, I'm back, and once I get better I will do a video of me singing for you all! Posts will picking up again(:
