brushies.

my coastal scents brushes came today! that was some quick shipping! i mean, i made my order on sunday, paid for the cheapest shipping, and it got here today!

the fiber optic brush, it's softer and not as stiff as i assumed. i don't know how hell it will hold up to stippling. it's really soft though! i think it might stand better with buffing. i had washed it earlier so it's drying right now. let's see how foundation application works with it.

boo boo. i'll probably have to spring 40 bucks on the mac 187 brush for my stippling needs it seems.

the 2 eyeshadow brushes feel promising, nice and soft. i'm going to see how those work out tomorrow too.

cherry culture lags. my order is still processing! ughhh. i made the order on sunday, it's wednesday now and they still haven't sent it out of the warehouse! boooooooooo! i'm really looking foward to the nude lipstick shades i got!!

anyways, wooooot! tomorrow is my last day of classes and then my first week of fall semester is over with. holla holla! too bad tomorrow is going to be a long dayyyyyy. sigh.

for $8.82 at your local wal*mart, you can be the proud of owner of the cd, michael jackson number ones. it's a compilation of some of his number one hits. as i write this blog i am currently rocking out to billie jean.

okay okay, sooooo! i figure i should make this particular blog worth while. it's the first week of school so my schedule is still kind of easy peasy to work with. i've still free time! i'm sure first thing next week that will soon change. hah! so i gotta take advantage of the time i currently have.....and i'm blogging while jamming to MJ......NOW THAT'S A PARTY!

achilles had a haircut today. the kid despises haircuts so the whole time daddy was buzzing away, i was playing clips of yo gabba gabba on youtube for him with my laptop. it was the lolz.

beat it....no one wants to beat it....

there's this group of white girls, 3 of them, in my math class. they're sisters and during class they bicker like sisters. it's a little weird because they start bickering about issues that really shouldn't be talked about in a math class, but at home....behind closed doors...then again, most families are definitely more open than mine is.

AND OH MAN, my skin is freaking out again! it was just clearing up during the vacation! what's up with that?? i haven't even started stressing yet! uncool epiderm, uncool.

i let busko borrow my pencil. i hope he doesn't use the eraser. that would absolutely peeve me out.

hmmm. i think i might change my default picture. it's old. well, not that old, but still. it's nice to stay updated....nahwuttamean?

...thriller......

schoolio.

well, it's that time again.

and it sucks. that is all. it sucks.

too bad I can't just snap my fingers and have a masters. if only....

yawn. I'm tired.

hauling.

i felt like web shopping.

so far i have bought 3 makeup brushes from coastal scents and 3 NYX round lipsticks from cherry culture.

i'm really excited about the brushes, 2 of which are supposed to be great MAC eyeshadow brush dupes. the other is a fiber optic brush. i'm wanting to stipple my foundation and achieve that airbrushed effect.

as for the lippies, i found a really pretty nude color. i've been really digging the smokey eye with nude lip look. the other 2 are pretty pale pinks.

last saturday before fall semester. ughhh.

elemenopeee.

it's late and i can't shake off this bout of insomnia.

it's the summer that induces it, always. it's the long lazy days and the memories that have embedded themselves in the inner most portions of my brain. memories of days slept in and nights for fun. memories of pregnancy and pregnancy related insomnia. memories, just memories.

sigh. i feel stretched thin. there's just so much to do and so much to worry about. i hate having to-do lists, or worse, worrying about somebody else completing tasks they need to do. busko, for instance, is infamous for holding things off until the last minute or it's too late. i have taken it upon myself to put together exactly what he needs to do and rate their importance. i've wrote all tasks on paper, underlined things to be done ASAP, and tacked it to the wall. he realizes i mean business and has been good with checking things off his list. he did ask me why i didn't make one for myself and i really didn't have an answer. i still don't.

achilles seems to have little man syndrome. it's safe to say....he's not a baby anymore. how depressing, yet remarkable. i have been a mother for 2 years now and i hope the fact that i gave him life will be thanks enough for making me one. <3

...i've all of a sudden grew a liking for cardigans. there's something about clean cut button down cardigans over funky shirts that i'm really feeling. in the past week i've accumulated three. they're cute and i'm excited to don them in the fall.

oh, i can feel fatigue. writing always helps.

it was a little secret.

i didn't tell many people that i went to san jose this past week.

why?

well usually when i do peeps want to make plans, but i end up flaking on all of them because the family is always wanting to do something, bombarding my vacation with plans. i think next time i go i should make plans with the peeps AND THEN go.

anyways, i'm back now. i am also officially mobile! my aunt and her hubby gave me their old truck, a 1995 toyota t100. it's beautiful, it's blue book value being close to $7000. i'm free to sell it and keep the money to invest in a more gas friendly car, but i don't like the idea of selling a gift. it was nice the way they gave it to me and busko. they were treating us out to dinner at our favorite vietnamese resteraunt, when they kind of offered it. i'm pretty sure it was just an on the spot kind of deal. i'm very grateful though, like very.

ummm. so i passed math with a 95% and aced my sociology class. yee yee. i'm on a rolll baby, yeahhhh. fall semester starts on the 25th, another 3 months. here we go. i've got a 24 pack case of rockstars. i should be good. HAH.

it's late. i need to figure out how exactly my schedule is going to work for the fall. yeah, i forgot. i need to get my stupid bag ready too. i think i'm ready to retire the harajuku lovers bag already. i'm really wanting a backpack, but i hate putting it on and taking it off. i just can't have it hang off of one shoulder, it needs to be by both straps. with a messenger or tote, i just swing it over my shoulder. sure it starts to hurt in a few hours, but they're just more aesthetically pleasing, no?

i bought the cutest suit vest at charlotte russe while in sj. i call it my mr. roger's vest, and finally, finally! i've added a pair of black skinny jeans to my massive collection of denim. hail charlotte russe.

i'm still in need of a cell phone. i disconnected my tmobile plan. i couldn't justify the $80 a month anymore for that crap of a phone sidekick. i'm looking into a basic phone with a basic plan with at&t. i will still acquire unlimited texting though. that is a necessary since i scarcely talk on the phone in the first place.

this blog is kind of getting long. eh, that's fine. my blog has been lacking these last few posts. here's something more substantial, blog. i had you in mind. i'm so damn thoughtful.

last day of my summer term!

after my sociology final today i'm off for 2 weeks before the fall semester starts!

wooooot.

i will be leaving to san jose tomorrow or thursday for a week. you know me, always needing a vacation back home here and there.

OH, i got an A- on my term paper for my sociology class. HOW AWESOME IS THAT?? especially since i knew i didn't put my all into that paper. oh how lucky i am..lucky lucky.

and did i mention i was excused from my math final? all because i managed to keep my cumulative percentage at 96%. tehehehehe.

anywho, i should probably be asleep, but i can't find sleep at the moment. i'm feeling too accomplished. i managed to take 2 classes during the fast paced summer term. go meeeee!

i'm going to browse yahoo answers now. night night, ya'll.

my son is almost 2.

he will officially be 2-years-old as of sunday, the third.

i've got me a big boy in my hands!

we're throwing him a cowboy themed barbecue this saturday. it'll be a lot more fun to throw him birthday parties when he can actually be excited for them. so far i don't think he has the slightest clue. haha.

it's going to be so cute. i've cowboy hats and bandannas for the children and all these cute cowboy decorations. we even managed to custom design the goody bags!

some of my family is coming down today to celebrate with us. i'm pretty excited to show them what living in the desert land is all about. hahaha.

i've still quite the to do list to be honest. ohhh, and i have finals next week!

OH, but good news! i was excused from my math final! woot woot. if you were able to maintain at least a 90% cumulative grade, our teacher excused you from the final. i had a 96%. tehehehe. gooo me.

too bad sociology didn't work that way, but that's fine. i've my study guide all nicely put together and ready to go. i'm a little frazzled by our term paper due next week as well. ohh yess, and our professor was kind enough to let us do the essay portion of the final at home. ehhh, that just leaves more writing to stress out about. boooo.

anyways, wish me luck! after next wednesday i'm off the enjoy what remains of my summer break, 2 weeks! one of those weeks will defintely be spent in san jose. count on it!
