The Challenge is OVER & I Relasped.........

Hi, Y'all!!! So my stint in rehab is over aka the NO HAULING CHALLENGE..... I learned a lot! I really was able to focus on the products and the colors that I already have, not only colors but different shades of the same colors.
Since the challenge is over I don't plan to "haul" like a damn fool anymore. I'm going to really focus on something before I buy it and ask myself questions like "do I have this color", "do I have this color in different shades/hues? I'm just not going to run to MAC every time a collection comes out just because its a new collection. I did slip up and I made a HUGE Cherry Culture order a few nights ago, but everything isn't for me, some of it is for gifts, contest prizes, random surprise packs, etc...
I did order two little things from MAC, I'm a sucker for free shipping promo codes. When I went to the MAC counter at MACY'S they were out of the Paint Pot that I wanted BLACKGROUND. I also ordered a Red Velvet Shadestick.


I'm trying to focus more on clothes and outfits. Hopefully Melissa of Fabulously Thrifty will be able to aid me in my "Evolution To Style". Style is all in my head! In my head I'm a freaking fashionista but when it comes to shopping I get frustrated, lazy & FAIL! >_<
I guess that's it for now, I hope everyone is having a good week. Did y'all remember to snag your Pretty Pink Box's?? I did! Set my alarm for 9:55am waited till 10:00am, placed my order then took my lazy behind back into my bed.........

I Found Something New...... Well New to me!

Hi Y'all! I hope all y'all had a Happy Valentines Day! Mine was so-so. The bf gave me a cute card with stickers in it! It was a kid card but he knows I ♥ stickers so he chose that card. He FORGOT to write my NAME on the card... I was like is this for me? Because I'm not sure it doesn't have my NAME on it. He also got me chocolates, I'm not a big chocolate fan, but he knows I love V-Day Chocolate! I bite them see & taste what's inside then put them back in the box, lol. He thinks thats gross, but whatev it's MY chocolate. So we decieded to go to Mohegan Sun. Were both piggies and we were looking froward to the buffet, classy right. We loved it the last time that we went but this time the food & the selection SUCKED!! The best part was the ice cream! Sad! So the bf brought $200 to play with and my unemployed broke ass brought $20 for gambling.... The machines were not "hot" I was doing good on penny & nickel slots but I ended up losing my $20. The bf lost $100. He wasn't even going to mess with the other $100 he brought. You can tell that the economy sucks because the penny, nickel & quarter slots were packed. So we hit up the stores!!! Oriental Fine Arts & Crafts was my favorite. They had rare Hello Kitty finds, and all kinds of kawaii stuff, but it's not the place to bring the bf he's not my favorite shopping buddy. So I told him to go play with the Maneki Neko (Lucky Cat) because it had a mehcanial paw so that I could focus and get some Hello Kitty swag. I ended up with nothing b/c he doesn't "get" my love of Hello Kitty and cute Asian trinkets. I'll go back though by myself so I can focus without the bf. I also had my tiny purse with me and I didn't want to have to be responsible for carrying stuff around the casino. We browsed Tiffany & Co. (the bf kept saying it was hot in there. I think expensive stuff makes him sweat. There was a COACH Store & a LUSH but I have those near my regular mall so I didn't make him go. Here's a list of all the stores at Mohegan Sun.

Ok one with the good stuff! I really am getting into Paint Pots Vanessa started this new crackish addiction. So far I only own two, Fresco Rose and Groundwork, but I want more.....
(no flash)

I also have a little thing for GLITTER LINERS, I thought that they would be too "teen-ish" but they are very subtle. I got two both from the MAC Hello Kitty Collection (they don't have any Hello Kitty on them, but you put it near the Hello Kitty stuff and I suddenly want to try them. I picked up two Her Glitz & Girl Grove. Girl Grove is slightly clear and you can make it your own color by appying it over a colored liner. Her Glitz is kinda gold-ish but looks amazing over my signiture black liner.


Ok, I'm out! I have some MAJOR HAULAGE coming over the next few days. The Mailman, UPS, & FexEd dudes are going to be very annoyed with me for the next few days! I hit up NYX, Katie B., Coastal Scents! I'm going to a delivery truck & mailman STALKER, peering through the blinds waiting for my precious items to arrive!

Ohh, I hope that Kimberly Tia & Xppinkx had wonderful b-days!!!! <3 I'm sure that you lovely ladies did!

Mini MAC Attack!

Hi y'all! I've been a bad, bad girl......... Ok not really. I went to M.A.C. the other day to start getting my Hello Kitty loot, and what do I see with my brown eyes? DAME EDNA, WTF!!! Well since it's a M.A.C Counter at MACY*S they wont have anything till the 12th, that's like THURSDAY! So instead of leaving I start talking to my friend Lucia and decide to buy stuff anyways. It's very bad to have friends at the M.A.C. Counter. Anywho, here's the loot!

That was my "date night" look. I went to the movies w/ my 3 BFF's Me, Myself & I!!! When you take yourself on a date you have to look good, right! We saw "He's Not That Into You". It was a good movie I give it 4/5 ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥. Everything they said in the movie is totally true! I had a few "AMEN" moments and a few light bulbs went off in my head. It's not a chick flick either, I think guys would enjoy it also.

Well I'm out for now, I'm watching the Grammy's, researching math stuff, Twittering, and getting ribbons for my Poupee Girl! Are y'all proud of me she's wearing pants now!
Oh, I found a really cute website from (I can't remember whose blog I saw it on, sorry). But it's really cute, I mean kawaii!!! You can get all kinds of knick-knacks and straps/charms for your cell and camera! Strapya World. Since I wont be going to NY as much (I used to go to visit Mommy Cat, my Grandmother) as I used to I can finally import fun cute stuff to my front door. There was a Beauty Supply Store right near her apartment that sold cell charms, camera straps, Hello Kitty stuff, makeup, wigs & weaves! All in one store, ahhh I miss NY! (I don't mess with Beauty Supply Store weave hair no more after I "jumped the broom to remy hair)"!

iWant!!!

It's a chopstick training toy!!! I'm really bad w/ chopsticks and I get embarrassed b/c my friends are always showing off when we go to a Japanese or Chinese restarant. I had something similar when I was little that my Mom got for my in Chinatown in NYC. It also includes a booklet with proper ettiqute.
They also have a ton of Hello Kitty stuff and candies!!!

I'm thinking about getting a Happy Meal for dinner, so I can get another Hello Kitty Watch! :)
