Sorry!

Hey, Everyone! I got back this weekend, and am doing fine. I know I have been MIA! I don't know what is up with me but I have been feeling sooo tired and sluggish. I haven't been able to fall asleep at night, and it has thrown me off. That is the reason I haven't even given you guys an update. I just unpacked my suitcase and cleaned up my room today. This whole week I have been just really off, but I will resume posting like I was doing before! I have decided to to just push myself and do all the things that I want to do even though I have no energy and feel lazy. :) I have tons of great ideas for future posts so don't worry!

What did I do this week you ask? Monday I was feeling fine, and was really productive. I was busy the whole day and didn't have a chance to blog. All of a sudden Tuesday I was just sooo tired and didn't do anything. I took the day to watch some tv. (I have been watching the second season of Heroes. :) I can't help it I am addicted.) Yesterday I went with my sister on a little road trip. She had to stop by some places and do some errands, but after that we went out to lunch and visited cool little shops. I picked up a couple of things that I will talk about more in a later post. Today I got myself up and got my room cleaned and now I am blogging. By the way I am sooooo hungry right now.

Some future blog posts?

• My first experience with fake nails. (There was a reason that I haven't done them before.) 
• Outfit of the day/ what I bought at this little shop
• Makeup/ nail polish that I bought before my vacation

Those are just some of the immediate ones that I will be writing. Since I have nothing to do right now, I will be a blogging machine and write posts that I will publish in the future!

Everyone is soooo great and I appreciate all the comments I receive. :)

Important Update and Eclipse

WARNING: TWILIGHT/ ECLIPSE TALK. PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK. :) Haha

Update (Please read, I promise nothing about Twilight :D)

I just wanted to let you guys know that I am leaving this weekend to go on a vacation. I should be back next weekend though. I am thinking of just taking a little blogging break for that week and resume posting when I get back. I will try to write up a post or two, so I can just publish them during the vacation... I haven't really decided so I will keep you guys updated on whether or not I will be doing that. Honestly my little vacation isn't going to be that exciting because I am just staying with a relative of mine. I will probably take some pictures to share with you guys, but I don't really have any plans for that week.

Twilight Talk

On another note I went to see Eclipse today with my sister. We went to the earliest showing hoping to beat any crowds, and we were correct. The theater wasn't that full and everyone stayed quiet during the whole movie. I was dreading having to watch it with people screaming about Edward/ Jacob the whole time. I really enoyed the movie and I have to say it is the best of the Twilight movies that are out so far. I am super excited about Breaking Dawn and am really hoping they split it into two parts like the rumors say. All the actors have been reported saying that they are on board with it being two parts and hope that Summit officially does make it 2 parts. You girls/guys should definitely go see it if you have seen the other two movies.

Am I Team Jacob or Edward you ask? Well that's a tough question... When I read the series I absolutely hated Jacob, and was total team Edward. After reading the series again and watching the movie, I have really sympathized with Jacob. I have learned to really love him. It also doesn't help that Taylor Lautner is cuter than Rob Pattinson. (In my humble opinion) So I have to say for the books: Team Edward, for the movie: Team Jacob. By the way in Eclipse, Jacob is shirtless multiple times.

Was the movie exactly the same as the books? No. They kept the plot mainly intact, and took creative license on it. If you want the EXACT SAME details and plot as the book, than you should probably go read the book. Just saying. The creative licenses that they took were alright with me and helped keep the movie going and not make it last 20 hours.

So that is my opinion on all things Twilight as of right now. Have you read Twilight? Do you love Twilight? Are you planning on seeing Eclipse? Leave me a comment letting me know.

I really love and appreciate everyone who reads this blog whether or not you comment and follow me. If you are reading this leave me a quick comment just to let me know you are there. Please? I'll give you a cookie. ;)

XOXO,

Cathy

P.S. The poll is still going on, so please vote. I want to get feedback to know how to best improve. I can't improve though if I don't know how much you like this blog. THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!

NOTD

So this post is basically going to be a ramble. I am just going to warn you now. :) The color I am wearing on both my hands and toes is Turning Heads Red by Essie. I talk about this color in a previous post. I am assuming that this color is being discontinued because the polish was so discounted. Now I have no idea what is going on with my camera, but all the pictures it takes are blurry to semi- blurry. So sorry this picture looks so off. I promise the color is not at all an orange red, although that's how my crazy camera photographed it. I tried my new Essie Crystal Nail File, and so far I really like it. I heard it is supposed to be less damaging, and I have heard it from a reader that it has helped her nails not peel as much. I suggest this to everyone, but I would like to have a little warning that it feels different than a regular file. If you are have sensitive nails, you may not like it. (I have no idea if I am saying so it makes sense... I have re-written that sentence multiple times. Oh well)

So I have been hooked on the show Heroes. I have been flying through the first season. I watch an episode basically whenever I have the chance. Today I mainly stayed away from that and got some more productive things done today. I am always working to make my blog better so I decided to get a new picture up top and now you can listen to music while you are on my blog. I picked 25 songs that I personally like for you to listen to you. Do you like this new feature or is it annoying? I plan to change up the songs and get new ones every once in awhile. Speaking of tv and such Pretty Little Liars comes on tonight. I have been really into that show because of all the mystery... I have so many questions about what is going on. Some of the characters seem a little predictable, but I can't help but watch it. I just finished re-reading Eclipse because the movie is coming out on June 30. :DDDDDD I am super excited about that. I am not going to the midnight showing though :(. Ok I better stop rambling! I only meant for this to be a quick update post... :} Thanks so much for reading!

XOXO,

Cathy

P.S. I have a poll going on. Please answer... It's anonymous. :) Thanks!

A Better You

I have decided that I need to become healthier. I'm not really going on a diet... it's more like a lifestyle change. I want to start running and working out, eating healthier, taking vitamins, etc. You only have one life to live so why not be healthy. Starting Friday I will be running in the mornings, and really beginning my healthier lifestyle. This change doesn't mean that I will never eat unhealthy again, but hopefully less. I'm really tired of having extra little fat that I think I can easily get rid of. I am not going to really keep track of weight or anything.... more just how I feel and look overall. Hopefully by the end of summer I will reap some rewards of my hard work. I will do random updates on my progress and share secrets, tips, and what not with you guys!

On another note, I want to get into self tanners (sunless tan). I want to be tanner, but not because of the sun. Tanning from the sun (that also includes tanning beds!! They are just as bad and possibly even worse!!!!!!!) can be very unhealthy and have serious consequences... I'm just saying. Right now I am starting of with Jergens Natural Glow in medium. I will see if it really works or not and let you know. Next week is finals!!! And then the school year is over. I have been so busy, hence the no posts and all. Oh well I promise to keep you guys updated! I am going to go shopping later on today... so haul later?? Ehh anyone?? Haha I will probably do one if you guys want.

XOXO,

Cathy

Did you all like the quotes in the last post? Do you want more? Leave me a comment!

End of the Year

So this school year is ending quickly, and I have so much I need to do. I have 100000 projects and finals are rapidly approaching. Not to mention I have work. I have been wanting to spend more time on my blog, but I really haven't had the time. I am so sorry. I would love to post really frequently, but it's difficult. Anyways enough of my sad woes. I came on here to ask suggestions for what I should post. Do you like nail of the days, rambles, fashion?? Leave me a comment and let me know. Also if you could share the love and tell others about my blog, it would be totally appreciated. (Not that I am saying you have to.) I am also wondering about makeup tutorials also in blog posts... I am a little iffy on posting pictures to random people though... This blog post is ending up to be pretty pointless. Haha I just felt the need to post something.

I was thinking of doing a favorites of the month, but I think it is too late into the month. Let me know if you would be interested in one next month.

Have a lovely week everyone. Happiness is a state of mind, so let's all focus on positive thoughts.

If you want to be happy, be. - Leo Tolstoy

You never know what life is like, until you have lived it. -Marilyn Monroe

Peace. it does not mean to be in a place where there is no trouble, noise, or hard work. it means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart. - Lady Gaga

XOXO,

Sephora and More

As many of you know, Sephora is having a 15% off sale! You get 15% percent off your whole purchase online or in stores. The only catch is that you are a beauty insider (which is free). Go to www.sephora.com to check it out. I suggest becoming a beauty insider because it is free and you get to know about new product, promotions, deals, and many other things going on at Sephora. Tomorrow I plan to make a quick stop at my Sephora in JCPenney. I would love to go to an actual store but the closest one to me is about 40 minutes. Even though I'll be getting 15% off, I don't know if I can justify going out of my way for that. I really wanted to get the NARS So Famous Set, but the Sephora in JCPenney doesn't sell any NARS. :( That's a bummer. The sale is April 12-19. I know it is about to end, but I thought I would let anyone reading this know about this sale. A couple of things are out of stock online because of this sale, so hurry up and take a look. On another note, I hope to get some clothes to freshen up my wardrobe for spring. The weather is getting so nice and I feel like I have barely anything springy. I just love the trends going around for spring, so I am excited to see what is out in stores. Would anyone like a clothing/ makeup haul to see what I got?? Anyone? Haha I know I will be lucky to even have 1 comment on this post, but I still think it is fun to write. I know in the previous post I promised some pictures and such but they got deleted accidently. It's not like anyone really reads this.... I am thinking about doing more nail of the days which I will probably include in posts about other things or make a post all by itself with that. I have been lusting after several nail polishes specifically, and Ulta is having a buy 2 get one free deal... So we will see how that goes. Plus I have a free polish for Ulta rewards. That may mean that stop into Ulta for a quick look tomorrow also. I am really excited about Urban Decay's new tinted moisturizer. I am just worried that there lightest shade may be too dark for me, so I am waiting for it to come out in stores to check it out in person. I heard the formula is really nice but the pump on it is a pain in the butt and the packaging is a bit cheesy. Normally I really like Urban Decay's packaging, but I think I agree with the blogger's reviews. I think it would be the greatest thing to be sent products to review and try out. I don't really think that will ever happen, but hey who nows. I have to get better at blogging more often. If you are reading this leave a comment please. :) I don't even care if it is anonymous!

XOXO,
Cathy
