Eventful Week.


I know it's been all reviews, movie news and fashion recently, but nonetheless, this is still my blog.
Like the title says, this week has been an eventful week. I've made a couple of new friends, got the modules I wanted (and timeslots for most)...

Some special things to note would be..

1. Me conquering FALSIES.



Fine. Laugh at the idiot. I never knew how to put falsies until now. Initially, I was thinking if I should do up a post called 'Falsies for Idiots', but I think that day wasn't a good day. Besides, I used glitter on my tearduct/bottom lid and clearly I don't pull the bottom glitter look well. I'm the dark eyeliner kind of girl! HA!

2. Thank You Notes
Of course, with my reviews, it's great when a band replies back to tell me that they loved the review! Makes me feel good as someone who reviews music and also feel that my efforts are recognized! Below are some of the bands who have given me credits and thanked me for the reviews:

I can't be more thankful that they appreciated the reviews even though I'm just starting out as a blogger. It's always good to be recognized and encouraged. I can tell everyone that.

3. JOHN VESELY FROM SECONDHAND SERENADE IS FOLLOWING ME!!

To be fair, nature did not take this course. I actually did what every fangirl would do and asked him to follow me multiple times on Twitter. HEY! Don't judge. It worked. And it was the happiest day of my life. Best thing bout that morning's that John followed me, Could it be that this was meant to happen now? (hehehe. try singing the previous sentence and tweet me its title...) I don't need it to be night to fall for him over again. I'm doing it every minute of my life. I LOVEEE Secondhand Serenade and I LOVEEE John Vesely. (Maybe I'll do a post on Secondhand Serenade...)

3. VERIFIED BANDS ON TWITTER FOLLOWING ME



As per my usual, I'm going to do reviews on them even though they're verified. I love these bands (since I've listened to them, so do wait for their posts! Or check them out yourselves if you have the time!) I'm not talking much about them for now, but I will be in their music reviews soon so you'll hear everything I have to say then. Till then, wait.

4. A CONCERT THEATRE IS FOLLOWING ME!!!

 It doesn't get cooler than this. I have The Roxy Theatre on my followers list! Since I don't really live in Hollywood, I first heard of The Roxy on The Voice when Adam Levine mentioned how he didn't like The Roxy. But since Adam Levine doesn't read this blog and doesn't even know of its existence, and beggars can't be choosers, I love the fact that they're following me!

So you see, this week has been crazy eventful. Where I got happy most of the days, reaffirmed some things about myself, made a few new friends, and reacquainted myself with some others I haven't seen since the holidays.



Please ignore my bad complexion.

Till next time my readers!

Lashes FALSIFIED.

If there's one thing I absolutely CAN'T do when it comes to makeup, it's putting falsies. It's not that I don't want to, but I just never got the hang of it. So, I'd stay on with the good ol' mascara to give me the long lashes I want.

Me, bare faced, makeup free.

I don't have short lashes, but without makeup, my face is nothing spectacular. Small iris, bad skin... You name it.

Then recently, I kept hearing people talking about Maybelline's Falsies mascara and it's magical powers to give girls the long lashes that falsies can. For someone who can't put falsies, I was hooked. It was under my list of 'TO TRY' beauty products. Hey, which girl doesn't want pretty lashes!

From the moment I tried it, I loved it. Utterly adored it! I could see the distinct curl of my lashes without putting the camera right up to my face! If you want a close up...
See the extent of the curl?!


So here's a tip to you girls out there. If you want nice, long, pretty lashes, don't hesitate to buy a bottle of Maybelline's The Falsies mascara! I wore it out the entire day and it still stayed in its original curl! Absolutely amazing!

(Shock face! :O)

Tip: Don't layer too much mascara on, like every other mascara, it smudges a bit as the day wears on! (but it's not too bad so it's getting my stamp of approval!)

I give this mascara a score of:
It's a 3.5, and it only got a lower score because it smudged a bit and I hate smudging at my eyes. So until I find a mascara that doesn't flake, smudge and gives my lashes all the length and volume they need, I won't give them a rating of 5. HEHE.

Hope this helped if you're deciding on purchasing a mascara!
Do stay on to read my blog for more fashion, music, movies and other tips and tidbits of my (sometimes not so) colorful life!
