Four Lovely Blog Awards

Hello everyone!

Miss Lita of her lovely blog (which can be found here) was kind enough to give me not just one but four lovely blog awards. The first one that she gave me was this one:

Award link: Here.

Here are the other ones that she gave me later on:




Award link: Here.

Since the rules are almost the same for each of them, I decided to include all the awards in one post and post it as just that, one post. 

Rules:
- Link back to the person who gave you the award. 
- Complete the form below.
- Tell seven random things about yourself.
- Nominate fifteen bloggers.
---------------------------------

Questions Form:

1. Name your favourite colour. 
Purple (and pink, if applicable). 

2. Name your favourite song. 
As of now, I Hate You by 2NE1.

3. Name your favourite dessert. 
Cake of course.

4. What pisses you off?
Certain know-it-alls. People who swear every two sentences (hate hearing swear words in general, especially the "f word"). Cheaters. Fakes. :/

5. When your upset you...
I'll probably go on a little rampage and then go to my room and try to cool down (this usually involves a little silent treatment). Will definitely forget about it within a few days.

6. Your favourite pet?
Rabbits. They are just so fluffy and cute. :3 Though fish are a close second. 

7. Black or white? 
Both, since I can't decide. Need both to have a healthy balance anyway. 

8. Your biggest fear?
Horror movies. 

9. Your best feature?
Hair. 

10. Everyday attitude?
Nice and content. 

11. What is perfection? 
Being perfect? O-o 

12. Guilty pleasure?
As of now, listening to this song (no thanks to my sister, who got me hooked onto it -_-). Surprisingly enough, it's catchy. 
---------------------------------

Seven random things about myself:

1. I get guilt tripped easily. In fact, too easily. This also usually happens every time I turn someone's offer down. 

2. I love dinosaurs. Mention a theme park, museum, or even a zoo and I'm there (well not literally, but you get the point). Yes I am serious about the zoo, even though they are not alive... On second thought, maybe it's best that they are just animatronics...   

3. I love playing video games in general, but my most favourite are role playing games. So addicting... 

4. I have an obsession with mirrors. Full length mirrors, hand mirrors, desk mirrors, decorative mirrors. You name it, I probably got it. xD Don't know why or how this obsession got developed, but you got to admit that they are pretty...

5. I have a tendency to continuously buy craft supplies, even when I don't need it right now or might not need it in the future. It might also be why I tend to favour bulk orders... Anyway, I tend to call this an "emergency preparation". :)  I mean you may never know right?

6. Whenever I get brand new stuff in the mail or from the local mall, I tend to keep them in their original packaging for a few days. I mainly do this for blogging purposes, but other reasons is just plain habit. I try to keep them as brand new as possible for some odd reason. ._.; 

7. I love movies, especially those of the action/adventure genre such as any superhero movies. 
---------------------------------

Now for the fifteen fabulous bloggers:

- Sasha of Bears and Bows 
- Rose of Hime Lolita Life 
- Caylee of Like Candy Floss 
- Kristen of Princessly Living

A Three in One Haul Post - Guess, Ecotools, and Claires Oh My!

Hello everyone!


As you can tell by the title, this is going to be one very long or at least very extensive haul post. Now I know that I said in the last haul post that I will be working more on deco/craft projects and less on hauls themselves, but I had just finished my full length mirror and haven't really started on anything else as of today. Speaking of hauls, I have to put all the stuff that I had bought away so it doesn't result in any clutter (which is already happening in my room D:). Anyway, the order that the hauls go in actually correspond with the title, which is pretty neat huh?

Deco Post - Full Length Mirror

Hello everyone!

For a while now I had been working on a project that unexpectedly took me a while to finish. Fortunately I am now finished with the project and it's now ready to be presented. :) The funny thing is, the reason that this project took me several days to finish is because of the lack of creativity and inspiration (say what now?). Yes, even after browsing through tons of hime decorating videos on youtube, such as this or even this.

Anyway, enough about my blabbering. Onward with the pictures, starting with the before picture!

A Beauty Haul

Hello everyone!

Today I went shopping (again)! xD I know I know! You must think that I'm crazy, but I can't help myself! It can get so addicting sometimes all the time. I don't know how Violet does it browsing through all that stuff without buying anything, but what I do know is that she has a lot of self control (Which I think I need to work on. Time to go back to my "hermit" shell...). On a serious note, I actually went to the mall to pick up some items that I will definitely need in the future if I ever wanted to improve and perfect the himegyaru look. I mean I'm pretty sure that I don't want to go on relying on the "Bump-its" stage forever...

Before I show you the haul however, I have some good news to share. Remember a few posts back that I had been going on and on about hating the blurred macro focus quality pictures for a while now and how I wanted to buy a new camera so badly? Well it turns out that my dad has a Canon Powershot A1100 IS, which long story short is definitely better than my current camera, having 12.1 megapixels instead of 6. :) So now I don't have to worry about the picture quality anymore, though feel free to let me know about the quality.

Stylize Velcro Rollers






Location: Shoppers Drug Mart
Price: $16.99 CDN
Thoughts: Yup! I got rollers! I didn't actually have rollers before so I got them. When I went to Shoppers Drug Mart (actually it's at every drug store), they have individual packs in just only one size at around $4-5. Now I wanted just the big ones, but they only have 4 rollers in a pack, which I'm pretty sure that in order to get the hairstyle right, I might need more than that. So I got this bulky set instead. Sure it might seem expensive at first ($16.99), but it's worth it when you consider that there are 31 pieces in here. That's a lot of pieces. I can't wait to give them a try. ^^

Aussie Aussome Volume Hair Spray

      
Location: Shoppers Drug Mart
Price: $3.29 CDN, was originally around $5.00 CDN 
Thoughts: While I was in the hair aisle deciding on which hair spray to get, I happen to find the Aussie sprays on sale at the time and decided to get the Aussome Volume one. Along with the rollers, I didn't buy both the rollers and the hairspray immediately at the time, since I wanted to compared the prices of similar items found at Walmart. Unfortunately, Walmart doesn't have the huge pack of velcro rollers (they however do have those foam rollers) and the Aussie spray was a little more expensive than the one at Shoppers. What I found interesting was that while I was at Walmart, they have these Fructis Style Crystal Resist Volume Hairsprays (at least that's what I think it was called) on sale for a limited time. I think it might be a new hairspray, since I couldn't find anything like it at the shelves and I couldn't find any reviews for it either. What do you think? 

That's all for now. For the next posts, I will be focusing more on craft projects and less on hauls, since I'm pretty sure that you are all tired from it by now. I'm pretty much all set when it comes to hair stuff, so here's to practicing on doing the hime puff hairstyle. ^_^
