-I just finished watching America's next top model finale. What a waste of a season. The models were...OK. And for you who haven't watched the episode already, I wanted the other girl to win. ANTM has started becoming more and more gimmicky, and not in a good way. I'm getting sick of all the skits and rehearsed lines Tyra comes up with. My friend Jen fast forwarded through the episode, and it's fair enough. Also, have you noticed Tyra saying 'Wa Waa' a lot?
-I can't wait til exams are over. I want to sleep, wake up and be in London. I'm looking forward for my summer in London so much. And Fi, Jen and some other friends are coming to visit! YAY!
-I'd love an iced caramel mocchiato. Why is it so hard for the Starbucks on campus to have ice cubes? Stupid Starbucks not serving iced drinks.
-I took today off-studying wise. But must get back into action for my forensic medicine exam on Monday. Is watching CSI considered to be studying?
-I am in LOVE LOVE LOVE with H&M's fall/winter 09 lookbook. The volume, the leather, the gloves/cuffs, the studs and the knits..gasma. I've picked out the items I NEED already.. yes, NEED!
-Speaking of H&M, Matthew Williamson's 2nd collecting for H&M was yesterday. Since there is no H&M in Cork (SHOCKING, isn't it?), my mom texted me asking if I wanted her to get me anything. Isn't that so nice? She had VIP access from 9-10am before the shop opened. She couldn't make it early, went at 11...Everything was gone. Well, there were only a few pieces left in either tiny or massive sizes. It's a bit unfair for everyone else who didn't have VIP access. But oh well..life goes on.
-For those in Ireland and UK, have you seen the 3 euro jelly shoes in Pennys (Primark)? They are Marc Jacobs knockoffs! 3 euro....that's cheaper than Starbucks coffee.
-You must try the raspberry white chocolate cupcakes from Marks & Spencers.
-I'm bored of my hair again. Dilemma.. To let it grow since it's in a damaged blah state? because I want my long hair back. Or to trim, dye it black with hints of navy? Or maybe back to my vibrant red?
-As if I have nothing better to do ie studying, I decided to get dressed, try orange and pink makeup a la S/S 09, and dance to 'Sing it back' by Moloko..and take some photos of course. A fact that you may not know about me, I'm obsessed with eye make up. And I'm also obsessed with MAC lipsticks.. I have a collection of them here.
Hello spring!
dress (A shop in Camden lock), lace leggings (Topshop), socks (Emilio Cavallini), shoes, necklace worn as bracelet (Topshop), gloves (A boutique in Berlin), cuff (A stall in Malaysia)
Make up used: Lipstick (Chill by MAC), Eye shadoes (Road stripe and Kiss from Urban Decay and an old limited edition Chanel palette), Blush (Grand duo mineralize blush by MAC)
-I recommend the grand duo blushers, if they haven't sold out already where you live, try them out! They have just the right amount of glow and shimmer, but not glitter. And MAC's lipsticks are the best, especially the matt ones. They do stay on for a very long time. My favorite lipstick shades would have to be Russian Red, Dubonet, Dark Side, Rebel, Girl About Town, Retro, etc etc etc etc.
-MAC is not paying me, I swear.

-Alright. I think it's time for some more shows..or serious work. More shows wins.

Love your make-up and your dress!
I love MAC too. I went through a phase when I couldn't stay away from their counters...
Oh I love the H&M autumn collection too. I wasn't that excited about Matthew Williamsons collection...had a quick look but nothing really stood out for me!
Sure CSI will be more helpful than books lol, now I also want starbucks but there is none here so....
Good luck with the exams and don't worry, they'll be over before you can notice!!

The makeup is done so well!!!
Exams killed everyone I know :( not really, haha. Anyway I haven't watch ANTM is ages and I really don't intend to watch it. I tried watching a back season but it killed my brain. It's sad I used to love it so much. On another note you look great and the make up is lovely.
Kisses, China L.

LJ you look hot-mazing in the bright florals. Also: loving the gloves! Also: I am right there with you re: hair. I am wanting a hot bob, because my hair is less than ideal length.... But I'm waiting it out until the last dramatic moment. Also: H&M winter: hotness.
You look seriously fierce!!
Which season of ANTM are you watching at the moment? Here, in Africa (hah), we're on the season with JADE etc oh my god, what politics. I must aggree with you on the gimmickiness of it all, like the silly stunts with the cockroach brooches and what not. Its so way overboard. Still love the show tho :)
I got some lovely shoes for my birthday which I think you will appreciate; http://nccreed.blogspot.com/2009/05/birthday-buys.html
