Merry Christmas!

Wow! Christmas of 2013 will make great memories.  A lot of decorations, food,  presents, and traditional Christmas songs!  So let's start with the tree.  Our Christmas tree fun and playful, with colorful lights and ornaments of all kinds.  This year, my family placed an angel on top.  Below the tree, with all the presents, we always like to have cute decorations, like snowmen on a sled. Enough talk, here's a picture.


This year, I received a lot of gifts from my family and friends.  This is everything I got this year.



Starting in no particular order, just look at how much nail polish I got!  Those were mostly from my sister and mom because they know about my obsession with colorful nails.  I got a whole package of food from one my friends.  Another gave me that mug with all that Ghirardelli chocolates, the lotion, and Eos.  The chalkboard mug is a brilliant idea; I have always wanted a chalkboard anything.  Plus the lotion and Eos smelled absolutely wonderful.  I'm also loving that stand-up picture frame, which I can't wait to use and decorate my room with.  The little makeup package in the center with silver eye shadow and purple lip gloss will be a great addition to my makeup collection.  As you may guess, the blaring red socks were from my parents, and I love colorful or patterned socks.  Finally, last but not least, the jewlery--an Express bracelet from my friend.  Gold and purple with a bow! I'll probably be wearing that every day.  And a necklace with a broken heart charm to be shared with my beloved sister.

Holiday Manicure

It's almost Christmas, so I decided to paint my nails with a festive color.  I was trying to come up with a design that would stay in style for all of winter and not just the holidays and thought a sparkly blue would fit the requirements perfectly.  I combined 3 colors and the result was this gorgeous shade.  

It's just so sparkly!

Darkish blue with teal holographic micro-glitters and teal and silver mini-hexes.


Here are some ideas on naming it:  Sea Crushed
                                                              Dreamy
                                                              Alice
                                                              Blujeweled
What would you name it?

Hanging Out At the Mall

So it's finally Winter break, and this is the perfect time to go hang out with my friends.  My friend and I decided to go to the mall, and we aimlessly walked around for two hours.  Malls are great for bonding time. I forgot to eat lunch before, so we went to the food court and both ordered cheap yet delicious Chinese food.  We didn't go to any stores except for the Sephoras.  Yes, my friend and I went to both Sephoras. I'm not sure if this is available everywhere, but there was this amusing center especially for us children where we could test try all the nail polishes on plastic sheets with nail outlines.  We spent a lot of time there, and spritzing too much perfume on testers.  Instead of smelling aromatic, I reeked of perfume.  Well at the end of the day, I had bundles of fun; plus I did share of exercise for the day.

Today honestly did not feel like a Friday because I didn't have cohort. In other exciting news, it was the last day of my Global Asia re...
