I have these moments (one too many of them I say) where I’m absolutely bored and don’t feel like doing anything. It’s not like I have nothing to do. Oh no, I have readings for class, homework, exams to study for, update my blog, all sorts of good things, but I just get into one of those moments where I don’t feel like doing anything except laugh at (mostly stupid) jokes and things.
F*** My Life (FML)
This is one of my favorite new sites to visit. Most of the things written are pretty funny (if you’re the mean type like me who like to laugh at other people’s miseries), but I also read them to remind myself that there are worse things happening to other people, that I’m not alone. Shit happens. Seriously.
Today, I saw my ex-girlfriend across the street. I was walking with a girl whom I’d been hooking up with and wanted to make my ex-girlfriend jealous. I kissed her and she immediately smacked me. I got a “ha-ha” text message from my ex. FML
Today, I was passing a building and saw a fat, ugly person inside. I started to laugh and noticed it was my reflection. FML
FAIL Blog
Just a collection of humorous pictures, from the same blog network as LOL cats (I can has cheezburger?). I guess looking at photos and videos of other people/things/places failing makes me feel better. Wow, I never realized how pessimistic I was. I need to find some new hobbies and hang around more chirpy people.
My Mom is a Fob
I don’t think you’ll understand this fully unless you have fobby Asian parents. But even if you don’t, I suppose the stuff they say (or rather, capable of messing up on) is unbelievable. Visit My Dad is a Fob for even more fobby humor.
Just after my parents got married and my mom had only been in the states about 2 years, they went to dinner with my dad’s co-worker and his wife. The check came and there was talk of who would pay the bill. My mom had just recently learned a new term and proudly announced, “LET’S ALL DOUCHE!!!”
I had been single for quite sometime so my mom confronted me about my credit card statement.
Mom: I saw your credit card statement and one entry had “Fall Out Boy” for $80.
Me: Yeah, so?
Mom: Are you calling gay sex hotline?
Me: What is wrong with you?!!! They are tickets for a concert!

I first fell in love with Stila Cosmetics when I saw the gorgeous packaging in a catalog at the age of 9. However, it wasn’t until 11 years later when I purchased my first products from them, and ever since then, I’ve tried the following products, and the ones in bold are my HG makeup items:
- smudge pots in black
- lip glaze in guava
- brush #4 (eyeliner)
- jade blossom hair refreshner
- all over shimmer powder in cream (flakes too easily)
I took advantage of BeautyCrunch‘s super Stila sale + free shipping, and I just got my package today. I purchased:
- it gloss in inviting
- it gloss in sweet
- all over glow in peachy keen
- eyes and shine smudge pot trio
- get fabulous for fall set in chocolate (3 shadows, 1 blush, a necklace, lip glaze in grapefruit, and major lash mascara)
- golden glow set (sheer tinted moisturizer spf 15 in bronze, sun spf 15 bronzing powder, eye shadow trio in golden glow, convertible eye color dual shadow and liner in port, lip glaze in spiced rum, and fiber optics mascara)
All the above for just $51.75. Apparently that’s over than $120-something in discounts! Unfortunately, the stupid UPS guys had to be all rough, and the luminizing powder for my all over glow in peachy keen cracked, and being too lazy to return it, I fixed it myself. To repair your cracked eyeshadow, blush, or pressed powder, all you need to do is add a couple drops of alcohol until the powder turns to paste. Then simply spread the paste back into the compact and let the alcohol evaporate. The result might look a little ugly, but it sure beats having to throw your favorite makeup away.
I’m not sure what I’ll do with all the makeup, but I’m definitely keeping the first 4 for myself. As for the 2 sets, I might give them away or um, be stingy and hoard it even though I already have way too much makeup.
I don’t know if you’ve ever had to misfortune to come across people who write like this:
Blah blah blah!!!!!!!! Blah blah : DDDDDDD BLAH!!!!!!! blah blah blah blah : ]]]]]] Blah!!!!
I’ve seen this (along with some awfully butchered Japanese) in an anime forum I used to own, but I get that, because it was a message board filled with tween anime fangirls/Japanese wannabes. Now after several years, I’m starting to see the return of the stuck shift+ 1 key and the smiley faces with too many chins. Not from teeny-bopper-anime-fangirls-who-think-they’re-Japanese-but-actually-aren’t, but from college kids. College girls in particular. Someone I know recently had his facebook wall spammed with such posts:
OMGOMGOMG!!!! BEACH!!!!!!! I long to see some real sun!!!!
anywayys haha XXXX take me skiiing too : ]]]]
AHHHHHH!!!! Ice Cream = I Scream!!!!
!!!!!!horseback riding!!!!! : DDDD
Seriously though, I understand you’re excited, which is why you’d use an “!” instead of “.”. Heck, you might even use 2 “!” or even 3. But anymore than that and having it occur more than once in a sentence is totally moronic and unacceptable, unless your keys really did get stuck.
Second, what is up with : DDDDD or : ]]]]]] or any smiley face with way too many smiles? Do you have any idea how retarded it looks? I’ll tell you what I think: I think you’re smiley face is FAT and has too many chins and needs to call Jenny Craig ASAP. For crying aloud, you are in college, not middle school anymore. Doing this does not make you look cute or pretty or anything positive for that matter. It just makes you look like you need to spend some grammar time with Momo-chan. Maybe then you’ll learn how to use punctuations properly.
After 2 ranting and bitching posts, I’m starting to feel like an old lady, not to mention I’m probably boring you guys. So to redeem my youth (ha!), I’m going to share with you some of my favorite skin care products:
St. Ives Apricot Scrub (Renew and Firm)
My friend recommended the scrub to me a while ago, but when I got to the school shop, I realized there were several variations of this popular apricot scrub. In the end, I chose the Renew and Firm, not because I’m old, but because it contained alpha hydroxy, which helps with cellular renewal. I used it that night, and I couldn’t believe how soft my skin felt. Amazing, but be sure to use gentle/mild lotion after use because it can make your skin sensitive. But OMG, my skin is so soft now! I can’t stop touching it 
Clean & Clear Advantage Acne Cleanser
I use this face wash every night, and it keeps my face pimple free. Sometimes I use a different cleanser or I get lazy at night, and a pimple might pop up to say hello. I use this again, and it makes the pimple go away. Yay.
Clean & Clear Advantage Acne Spot Treatment
My pimple blaster! I use this twice a day after washing my face on the tough little zit, and it usually goes away in 24 hours without leaving any scars or marks. It stings a bit because I tend to play my pimples (ok, so I’m weird), but I’d like to think that the pain means the product is working 
Shiseido Anessa Perfect Sparkle Sunscreen
Unfortunately, I don’t think you can buy this in North American departments stores or Sephora. I like this because it works as a primer and contains tiny pearly molecules that give my skin a dewy glow. Even though it’s SPF 50/PA+++, it doesn’t make my face oily like the American sunscreens do, and it actually keeps my face from getting tanned.
Paper/Sheet Masks
This is one of those Asian things. Basically, the mask comes in individual packages instead of a tube or jar, and inside each package is a paper mask soaked in serum/lotion. If anything, these are my no.1 HG skin products. In desperate times, when my skin is dry, dull, and rough, I use these babies every night after I wash and tone my face, for a week, non-stop. After a week, my face is glowing, soft, and hydrated. Seriously. But because they’re so awesome, these don’t come cheap. You can buy them at SASA at about $1 per sheet. I got mine from Taiwan for about $0.25/sheet, and I brought back 400 sheets when I went back last summer. Nyahaha 
Seriously though, this stuff is amazing.
If you’re hoping for more, well, this is the part where you’re going to be disappointed. Unfortunately, I still haven’t found my HG lotion or toner yet. At best the products I use now are “meh”, but they’re not something I’d buy again.
What are your HG products, and why?
I really wish I didn’t have to post another angry ranting post, but I’m starting to think I’m some sort of idiot or asshole magnet, because that’s the type of people I tend to attract into my vicinity. D: The people in the following post make my former group of party buddies look like saints.
These three girls come to my friend’s apartment, all loud and obnoxious, at 1am Tuesday night, because another friend had to be an idiot and invite them. But even then, you’d think they’d have the courtesy to at least quiet down because the other girls living in the apartment were there as well, but no. These dumb bitches continue being loud, and after we tell them to quiet it down as to not piss off my friend’s housemates, they complained that my friend should have bonded better with the other girls, and that it wasn’t really their problem.
So they continue being loud, obnoxious, and ugly, pissing off my already tired and angry friend even more. She just wanted people out of her place so she could rest, but she felt bad about telling everyone because asides from those bimbos, she didn’t mind the rest of the people. So I told one of them to get the people out in 5 minutes, or else I’m going to tell them to STFU and get the fuck out. Then those same bitches start complaining again, saying that if we had something to say, we should say it to their faces. I heard at least 2 of them go “What is their problem? Gosh!”
Until finally, my friend’s housemates got annoyed and asked us if she could boot them out. We cried for joy as if we had seen the face of Jesus himself, and begged her to please do so. So she did, and forget thank you’s and goodbyes, those bitches just complained “Gosh, why did we even come here, geez, they don’t even want us. We should’ve gone to my place, none of this would happened! Gosh!”.
I do believe I lost about 10lb, 5 years of my life, and grew 3 white hair last night no thanks to these twats.
