Goodbye Summer 2010

Please forgive me for neglecting you, blog! I'm such a terrible blogger...fail.

Recap of my summer:
-Visited Cornell with my cousin
- OC with the family
- NYC and NJ with the family

Yup, that's basically the road trips I've taken this summer. I can't believe summer has finally come to an end. It was enjoyable and relaxing while it lasted! School starts in about two weeks... >.<

Of course since summer is coming to an end, I did some back to school shopping! I didn't really buy much, but it's enough to have some nice outfits for the beginning of school hehe. In Maryland, there's a tax free event going on where clothes and shoes are tax free for an entire week! YAY FOR NO TAX <3 Sadly, it's specifically on clothes and shoes, but who cares. tax free. :B

Without further ado, there are some items that I've picked up from F21, VS, Zara, Urban Outfitters, & Hollister!



Two necklaces on the left are from F21 & bow necklace is from Urban Outfitters!! <3

Keep calm & Carry on,

Current Obsession: Polka Dots!

Which Phone to Choose!!

I want a new smartphone but can't decide!

It's either:

Iphone 4G -- although i've already heard complaints about it!

T-mobile HTC HD2 --- this one's really nice!

Verizon Droid Incredible--- this one's very similar to the t-mobile HTC.


WHAT TO CHOOSE, WHAT TO CHOOSE!

i still got some time though hehe. So no need to rush! But knowing me, I can't wait for too long :b


luvs,

I Think About You in the Summertime!

I remember, I think it was two summers ago when that song was so popular. Wow, it's already been two years! It was a song by New Kids on the Block and it was such a popular song during the summertime, hence it being called "I Think About You in the Summertime"! haha :D

Anyway, my boyfriend and I started taking classes on tuesday and we've already skipped two classes! Yikes! :(
It's all him, I promise! haha I guess I'm a little to blame hehe. We're taking psychology and economics. I'm not looking forward to economics at all because I HATE anything that deals with economy and politics. ugh. But it's a new experience for us because we've never been in a class setting before! we've never taken classes together so it's actually fun. Only reason why I look forward to the classes.

Our typical daily schedule:
Class at 10:15-12:15
Eat the lunch that I packed for us (we're trying to save money, haha) either outside or back at his place
Nap time (result of food coma -.-)
Chill, do some homework before we go to our second class
Class at 6:30-9:15

That's about it. It sounds pretty boring, but it's actually fun 'cause I spend the entire day with someone I love :)

June is pretty busy for me. On days I don't have classes, I work and vice versa. Gotta make a lot of money this summer so I can save up (I have problems saving money...always want to spend it >.<)
I can't wait for July though! No more classes, just work! I can finally just be a bum again :D yayyyyy!

Oh, and I got a new hairstyle the other day! Wave perm :)



Waves are always a good look for the summertime!


Enjoy!
Michee :)

I'm back! Stronger than ever! hehe.

It's been such a long time since I last updated! oh gosh.
But it's all good 'cause I'm back :)

I'm in a good mood. Wanna know why? BECAUSE TODAY WAS MY LAST DAY OF SCHOOL!! I'm finally finished with Freshmen year of college! And let me tell you... it ZOOOOOMED right by. No joke. I can't believe I'm a sophomore now... it's insane!
So I had my last exam today- it's was an 8 a.m. exam and we had to write two in class essays... fml. My hand was cramping by the end of the first essay! But I finished on time so everything's good :)

TIME FOR SUMMERRRRR! :D<3

And to start off my summer:
My boyfriend and I are going to AC today! I'm so excited! :DD
He's on his way to pick me up as I'm typing this hehe. Everything's good in the hood!

Anyway, I wanted to talk about something that's been in my mind lately.

So May 14th was No Make Up Day- or something of that sort. I was really inspired by all the women who either broadcasted themselves in front of the entire country or youtubed themselves with no make up on! It was so nice to see women expose themselves like that. I know it would take me a lot of guts to do that. And as I was watching this, I was telling my boyfriend about it and he brought up something that kind of took me off guard. When I told him that these women are so brave to do this in public, he replied by saying, "That just tells you how sad our world is... women have to be BRAVE to show their real selves?" I'm not gonna lie.. he made a good point there. It made me realize that it shouldn't be bravery that provokes us to show our real selves... it should just happen without thinking. We're so masked by our make up that we're so used to it, which makes our true faces become foreign or private. It kind of reminds me up Fiona from Shrek; how Fiona's beautiful body during the day is a mask that hides her hideousness at night. Now, I'm not saying that we're that extreme but the same rule applies. Shrek was only able to see her real self because she let him in and showed him her vulnerability side. No one else in the world would've known that she would drastically change from day to night. So in that sense, we have become little Fiona's where we mask our real appearance from the world during the day and then only at night do we take off our masks.
To be honest, the only reason why I put make up on is to cover my blemishes and redness. I rarely put eye make up on with the exception of mascara and eye liner. But it doesn't matter. I'm hiding my blemishes away from the world, which I should not be embarrassed of...but it's just so hard! When make up is improving every year, it's impossible to not be pressured to try all the bright sparkly colors! BUT, it should not let it become us. It should not become a mask to cover our true appearances. This is something that I have to work on myself and I do realize that things might be better once my acne goes away but I'm not gonna lie, it's gonna take a lot of time. Slowly but surely! One day you'll be seeing me walking around the streets with no foundation on! :)

Let's eliminate all the Fiona's out there in the world! Because we all know that there is not happy ending (unfortunately.. :( ) And by Fiona I mean women who mask themselves with make up that it takes bravery to leave the house without out. We shouldn't depend on make up so much... you're know you've crossed the line when someone asks you "If you were stranded on an island and could only bring ONE thing with you, what would it be?" and you answer "MAKE UP" hahahaha. you get my drift ;)

Anywho, that's all I got to say! Just me blabbing once again hehe.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOMMY!

I LOVE YOU <3

Jealousy.

Jealousy.

I feel this emotion one too many times. When I see other girls walking around with luxurious Louis Vuitton handbags and Tiffany's jewelry. Or when I see girls engulfing pounds of food down their throat and don't gain a SINGLE pound. Or when I see girls with flawless impeccable skin without ever having to wash their face. That makes me jealous the most.

But it's not the type of angry-jealous. It makes me reevaluate my life and my possessions. It may be true that I may not have huge designer bags that cost my college tuition and perfect, smooth, clear skin...but it makes me realize that I should always be grateful for what I have. Funny how being jealous makes me realize this.

True, there are times when I feel jealous and hate these girls before even meeting them. And also true that I wish my parents were as rich as them so I too could splurge all my money to designer clothes and jewelry. But that's just me being selfish. And selfish is not good. No, not at all.

I just have to remind myself that life is unfair. Whoever said life was fair in the first place?! We need to stop believing that life is supposed to be fair... it's not.
