Quote of the Day Jan 24th 2011


I’m selfish, impatient, and a little insecure.
I make mistakes, I’m out of control and at times
Hard to handle. But if you can’t handle me at my
Worst then you sure as hell don’t deserve me at my best.
- Marilyn Monroe

Quote of the Day Jan 23rd 2011


Do not go where the path my lead,
Go instead where there is no path
And leave a trail. =]

Quote of the Day Jan 22nd 2011


Believe in yourself and all that you are.
Know that there is something inside you
That is greater than any obstacle.

Wake up with a smile =]


Hey everyone,

I have another quote for you guys but this one is much more powerful I think so I decided not to put it as a quote of the day. I found this quote a few weeks ago and from then on, every morning when I wake up I look at it and keep these thoughts in my mind for the rest of the day. Since doing that I have definitely felt a lot better about life and really appreciate everyday of life I’m given. I hope it helps all of you as well and makes your day’s beautiful. =] So here it is….



Today I am fortunate to have woken up, I am alive, I have precious human life, I am not going to waste it. I am going to use all my energies to develop myself, to expand my heart out to others, to achieve enlightenment for the benefit of all beings, I am going to have kind thoughts towards other, I am not going to get angry or think badly about others, I am going to benefit others as much as I can.
- Dalai Lama

Quote of the Day Jan 20th 2011


Today I choose to live with gratitude for the LOVE
that fills m heart, the PEACE rests within my spirit
and the voice of HOPE that says all things are possible.

Quick Fix: Queen Helen Mint Julep Masque




Hey guys!!

I just wanted to let you guys know about an amazing product. I'm sure many of you have already heard of this, especially if you watch the beauty guru videos on Youtube, but it is such a great product that I had to sure it for those who haven't tried it.

The Queen Helen Mint Julep Masque is a typical green mask, the kind you see in the movies. It has a minty smeel and feel and is tingly when you put it on (in a good way lol). It is very inexpensive, only a couple dollars, and can be found at most drugstores. You can either use it as a full facial mask, which I do once a week, or as a spot treatment, just put a lil bit on any blemish to dry it up quickly. I personaly LOVE LOVE LOVE this product and would definitly recommend it. =]]



My Mac Eyeshadow Collection


Hey everyone!!

As you can tell by the title this is my Mac eyeshadow collection. I know it's not very big and to be honest the pictures aren't that great but I decided to share it with you all anyways. I put the name of the color above each picture and in the parentheses I put what finish the shadow is. Hope you guys like this and have a wonderful and happy day =]





White Frost (Frost)



Shroom (Satin)



All That Glitters (Veluxe Pearl)



Trax (Velvet)



Parfait Amour (Frost)



Jewel Blue (Veluxe)



Newly Minted (Matte)



Sassy Grass (Matte) - Limited Edition



Club (Satin)



Beauty Marked (Velvet)
Tip: I really like this color in the packaging but if you apply it to your eye and try to blend it out it turns into a basic black color.



Swatches of all the colors in the order that they appear on here. (Sorry about the bad quality lol)

Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius,

absolutely boring.

Be a Firework



Want a little inspiration???

Katy Perry’s new hit song “Firework” will give you more than a little. The lyrics alone really changed my life. The first time I heard it I was in awe and listened to it about 3 more times just trying to soak it all in. Then when I went on you tube to find the video for it I came across “Making of Firework”. Watching that video makes the song so much more inspirational and the people’s stories are amazing. If you haven’t heard the song I included the lyrics below as well as the music video and the Making of Firework video. If you are like me and always striving to improve yourself and be the best person you can be this song will provide plenty of inspiration.

I hope you all have an amazing day and let the Firework in you shine bright =]

Making of Firework






Katy Perry’s
Firework Lyrics

Do you ever feel like a plastic bag
Drifting through the wind
Wanting to start again

Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin
Like a house of cards
One blow from caving in

Do you ever feel already buried deep
Six feet under scream
But no one seems to hear a thing

Do you know that there's still a chance for you
Cause there's a spark in you

You’ve just gotta ignite the light
And let it shine
Just own the night
Like the Fourth of July

Cause baby you're a firework
Come on show 'em what your worth
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y

Baby you're a firework
Come on let your colors burst
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
You're gunna leave 'em fallin' down-own-own

You don't have to feel like a waste of space
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow

Maybe you're reason why all the doors are closed
So you can open one that leads you to the perfect road
Like a lightening bolt
Like a lightning bolt, your heart will blow
And when it's time, you'll know

You just gotta ignite the light
And let it shine
Just own the night
Like the Fourth of July

Cause baby you're a firework
Come on show 'em what your worth
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y

Baby you're a firework
Come on slet your colors burst
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
You're gunna leave 'em fallin' down-own-own

Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
It's always been inside of you, you, you
And now it's time to let it through

Cause baby you're a firework
Come on show 'em what your worth
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y

Baby you're a firework
Come on let your colors burst
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
You're gunna leave 'em goin "Oh, oh, oh!"

Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon

Top 10 Online Shopping Sites


This is my top picks for online sites that I think are really good for shopping. Some are make-up and some are clothes. Also some have actual stores as well but they may not be available any where near you so I think this list is really helpful. I love online shopping and love finding new sites that I haven’t heard of so that's what gave me the inspiration to make this. If you know any others that aren't on my list please let me know in the comments.





Clothing, Shoes, and Accesories Sites

1. Gojane.com
2. Forever21.com
3. Wetseal.com
4. Delias.com
5. Alloy.com
6. Greatglam.com
7. Girlprops.com
8. Evanity.com
9. Etsy.com .
10. Urbanoutfitters.com


Cosmetics, Hair, and Skin Product Sites
1. Cherryculture.com

This is just an added one and its great for both but may seem a little odd but its Ebay.com. I haven't really tried it for clothes but for make up and like make up cases and stuff its great.

Doll Make Up

This is another look I did awhile ago but really liked.










Then I added "fake lashes" at the top too to make the look even more doll like.

Quote of the Day Jan 18th 2011

Lucky Stars




The other day I came across a crafting site called http://www.craftster.org/. While on that I found a craft-a-long called Lucky Stars. It is basically the same thing as making 1000 cranes to bring good luck but it's much simpler and takes less paper and I would think less time. I started 2 days ago and have almost 50 done so far so if you want to craft-a-long here is a website with the instructions on how to do it. Its verrrry easy it just takes some patience.

Leave comments on your progress if you decide to do it with me or some pictures.. =]]

Quote of the Day Jan 17th 2011


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