My Greek quiz went wonderfully! I was so happy after I took the exam—I really did study hard and it paid off! Thank goodness. Learning a foreign language is difficult … but I always think how lucky I am to speak English already and not have to learn it. It’s the hardest language in the world to ever learn. Yikes.

Anyway, I got out of work early today, which is wonderful. I’m getting tired of being there every day and I’m really close to quitting. I’ll have to figure out what I’ll do and apply for jobs now if I want to transition properly with money still in my pocket.

As you can see, I completely revamped the site—made a layout—from scratch! Haha, first time I’ve ever done that for my own site and I’m quite proud. I’m still in the process of adding a few sections and fixing everything, but things should be in working order. If not, email me or use the contact form and let me know what’s up!

This is an old picture of me and my favorite cousin, John Dylan! His birthday is coming up and I wanted to dedicate a post to him. He’s turning eleven … or ten. I forgot. Haha, he grows up fast. But, anyhoo, he’ll be getting dates and girlfriends and giving wedgies (do kids still do that?) in no time.

Haven’t gotten a chance to wear my new, gorgeous Ugg boots yet. Got them in Classic Tall - color is Sand. Hopefully, the weather gets a bit cooler. I don’t want to wear Uggs and have my feet sweating uncontrollably (imagine walking around with soggy toes? ugh!).

Planning on getting some MAC pigment samples sometime this week. I’ll see which distributor has the best shades and prices. There a lot of creeps out there selling fake samples! It’s weird. Fake samples? WHY?!

Anyway, will add more brushes and so later on … I’m too lazy now. Blegh.

No class tomorrow! HOORAH!

EDIT EDIT EDIT !!!

I had to add this in. I get frequent emails from Sephora about new make-up and usually, I don’t get too excited about most of them, but AAHH! I have been waiting for this for forever! It’s utter brilliance and I will buy it! NOW!

The gorgeousness that is above is BAKED make-up. Snatched the description from the website—it’s below:

What it does:
Balance-N-Brighten is a color-corrective powder foundation—a blendable swirl of warm neutral tans and creams for buildable coverage and a finish that is sheer, smooth, and delicate. Bronze-N-Brighten is a versatile product, adapting from bronzer to blush, eye shadow to eyeliner, and even eyebrow color. Its rich tones of bronze and rose, swirled together, create a radiant glow. Blush-N-Brighten in Berry contains sheer, natural swirls of pink, berry, cream, and gold, which imparts the glow of good health.

What else you need to know:
Starting out as swirls of liquid, color-corrective pigments, these pressed powders are then poured onto terra cotta pans and baked for 24 hours. Each one has the capacity to self-adjust to your skin tone, bringing just the right amount of complexion-brightening pigment to bronze, brighten, or blush. All are made in Italy, and are ideal for any skin type. Set includes three 0.06 baked powders and a compact kabuki brush with case.
