I have seriously given up on wearing makeup. I am at the point where I am ready to sell it and start all over. haha. And I really think my MSFs (Natural in Med Dark, Warmed and Light Flush) are breaking me out. GRRR. That means I have $75 collecting dust. Blah. I should sell it.
Since the latter half of July, I have been learning and reading about nail care on the MUA Nailboard. I am still not a fan of they way the MUA boards work, but I sucked it up and used it. I have learned so much about how to care for my nails, what products to use and what tools are necessary. I do not have a lot of products (yet), but I have found a few things that I really like.
First, I love Creative Nail Design Solar Oil. It's a cuticle oil that you place on your nails and rub it in. It smells like almonds and it's easy to use. However, this little guy is expensive! I've seen a 1/4 oz bottle sell between $7-$10. When I am feeling cheap, I will use my jojoba oil since it is listed as one of the ingredients.
Second, I love my glass nail file from Sephora. Ever since I purchased it, I haven't used a nail clipper. I use it to shape my nails and to maintain its length.
That's what I love right now. I am pretty sure I'll find something else to add, but that is all for now.

Lagging
So I have been laggin on posts lately. I never realized how much effort it takes to blog! haha. Well I know it's one thing to write, but it's another to place pictures in it too. hehe. So much props to everyone that blogs.
I also have been thinking about my makeup obsession. After playing soo much tennis this weekend, I decided to stop purchasing makeup. I've taken soooo many trips to the MAC store and the counters and many times I have come out with nothing. I also need to start using up my makeup. I've accumulated stuff over the past 2 years, and it's just too much makeup to have. So I think I am gonna quit on the makeup purchases. I also want to focus more on tennis and haha tennis ain't that cheap. Must buy balls and overgrips and most importantly... a spare racket!

Shortness
I found this on Pursebuzz.
http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sfc/tlg/563125425.html
I'm an inch short! grrr. I should have listened to my mom and drank my milk. That could have at least given me an inch or two more.
Since I am on the topic of short.... I need to vent about what I found in my tennis forum. I think the thread was called "The Short Persons Club." I thought, "Cool! A Thread for short people!" I clicked on the link, and the OP says that anyone under 6'0" can join. SIX FEET!!! What the FUCK are they complaining about being short. Six feet is tall. Heck my prom date in high school was 6'1 and I had to stand on a box, with three in heels so we could take pictures. I know there are others who are shorter, but c'mon if you're gonna say short at least gimme 5'5". I know thats short for tennis, but everyone on there was averaging 5'7". ARG.
As much as it sucks to have to use a stool or some type of assistance, I do not mind being 5'1. It does have its perks. I love how I can sit crosslegged on the airplane. More legroom for me! hehe. Also, at Pacific, the biology lecture hall had these tiny, desks and cramped chairs but I could sit comfortably in them. My tall gangly 6'0 friend, however, sat hunched over. I don't fall as hard compared to someone taller. lol. So hey, its not that bad being short.

5 Random Facts
Long overdue, but better late than never, right?
1) I don't use regular hair ties. Hate them. I use those Japanese ones that you cut up to the length you want and tie them. I get them from Longs in Hawaii. I need to get more because my supply is running low.
2) I am flatfooted and because of that I use arch supports. Don't laugh because I am a strong believer in the kinetic chain.
3) I've never played in the snow. I've seen it on the hilltops in Fremont, but to actually touch it and play in it? Never.
4) I mysteriously broke my right 4th metacarpal (bone below ring finger) during a basketball game in high school. All I remember was going up for a rebound one minute (I got the rebound), passed it out, looked at my hand, and ran down the court thinking, "why is my finger waggling around like this", getting the ball, air balling the open shot, grabbing my hand in pain, getting subbed out, saw the trainer and got the news. Fun, huh?
5) I own a Playboy magazine. It's the one of Hugh Hefner's gf's with the white background. I only bought it because The Girls Next Door is one of my favorite shows!

Wallet Damage
Oye. I did some damage this weekend. I bought a couple of new makeup items. First was my new Clinique Superbalm in Raspberry. It was $14 at Sephora. I really like Clinique lip products. Ok I only have two items, but they are very moisturizing.
Its very moisturizing and gives my lips a nice red tinge. I don't really like how it won't come out of the tube if its cold. grr. But other than that, its pretty good. I was going to buy a Juicy Tube in a Berry Bold because I loved the color, but I thought spending $18 on lipgloss was ridiculous! I have a feeling that I might return my backup Full On Lust l/g from MAC. eek. Not good. I honestly thought I would use it more, but I barely touch my current one.
The second item I bought was MAC Sumptuous Olive eyeshadow. I have been eying this for awhile and I finally bought it. Its sooo pretty! This is my first jump into greens. The color reminds me of woodwinked, but less gold and more green. Its sooo pretty! It's still in the package. I want to play with it, but I the next goody is what I have been playing with all weekend.
And here is the wallet breaker....
Stupid racket! I swear if its not makeup that makes me spend money, it has to be tennis. Oh well. I think of it as an investment in my health. hehe. I have to constantly remind myself that. But this is my new racket! I want to name it Tommy after the old Pacific mascot, but I haven't made it official yet. Tommy reminds me of Tom Brady. ewww. I haven't gone out to hit with the racket yet. Stupid rain! Playing with the bf's racket convinced me to get it. hehe. So now we have identical rackets, except I have the oversize version.

Oh the bf hates how we have basically the same racket. oops! not really. I loved the way his played and so I got myself one! yay! I took the rubberband dampener off and replaced it with my gamma shockbuster. He also wants me to get a different overgrip, but I don't want to! I like the white yonex super grap. I was also the one who introduced him to it. hrmph. However, I do want to try the light blue super grap. I want my racket to look pretty. hehe.

So who watched Superbowl? Right now I am on a high. I am sooooo happy that the Giants won. I did think they were gonna lose 21-27. But OMG that was an AMAZING game! Defense wins championships! I honestly did not want to see the Patriots go 19-0.
Congratulations New York Giants!
