LASH EXTENSIONS

 

I don't know, I've always wanted to try them but never felt like dropping $140 on them because I was too busy dropping that much or more at the hair salon.

A SPONSOR

For my much desired nose job from Dr. Rollin K Daniel. Yeaaah that's gonna set me back a bit,

I hate to sound ungracious, but I just have to put it out there--there's nothing more disappointing that getting a lotion/body wash/etc. as gift.  And whoever you are reading this--I KNOW FOR A FACT YOU AGREE WITH ME.  The only times its okay is when its from someone who's not exactly a friend and was just being nice.  But when its from a friend...boo..

Oh yeah--and a new roommate.  I really need to take some time to write out everything that's occurred between "the beast," as I like to refer to her, and I but alas there has been no time.  In short--it was like I had to go Bad Girl's Club on her.  Totally Natalie Nunn style (minus any actual hitting...I've no doubt she's try to sue me or something she is *that* ridiculous*).  This isstill in the process of being solved.  But yeah, it sucks.  :(

Finals Suck

A lot.  EFF COLLEGE.

The Nutcracker

Last night I totally won tickets to see the Nutcracker at the New York City Ballet!  The thing is, I feel SO lucky because I didn't really win the tickets--I was waitlisted, so I had to cross my fingers and hope some one who did win did not go so I could.  We were supposed to meet at 5, but I got there at like 4:15 because I wanted to make sure I was the first one there because I wanted them SO badly!  There was this other girl who was waitlisted and came around the same time I did (I'm not sure if it was before or after because we were meeting in the Lobby of this huge building, so it wasn't obvious who was waiting for what or why etc.).  At first I asked if she was the organizer--but she wasn't, she was waitlisted too.  My little competitive edge wanted to be--not a bitch--but I was wary of becoming friendly with her because when it came down to it I wanted those tickets and there would be none of that, "Ohhhhh well, you can go." nonsense.

Anyway, long story short--there were two spots so we both got to go!  It was beautiful!  I'm taking ballet (ahem...ballet 1 mind you) so I could really appreciate all the technique and skill it took to do what they were doing.  There were so many moments where I was literally in awe of how beautiful and graceful the ballerinas were able to move.  They work practically their whole lives to be able to do what they do so its really inspiring.

I wanted to snap some pictures during the show but I didn't want to be THAT person (just like how there was THAT person who wouldn't stop coughing behind me--UGH!).  Here's a couple of the theater though...

 Omg!

OMG!

I was totally cheesing the entire time.  I didn't like the little girl who played Marie though.  I didn't ~believe~ her.  There are no lines, just dancing, so every little movement counts and she did not put enough effort and feeling in every movement.

Anyway, best part hands down was the duet between....the girl and the guy in green.  I don't know their names...it wasn't the Sugarplum fairy though.

I know, I know, where are the pictures of myself...I forgot to take one.  Well, really I just didn't have time to be vain since I was meeting people and stuff.  Afterward we got to go and have dessert at this cute little Frenchie restaurant.  I got a nutella crepe.  It was heaven.

Anyway, this show totally stole my heart.  I'd love to see Sleeping Beauty next year.  The music, and Disney Movie, are some of my faves.

Magical... :*)
