Here's the Chanel polish in peridot :) I didn't know how expensive this was! So thankful T^T This polish is soooo awesome. It dried quickly and the color is awesome! Depending on lighting, it can be green or gold! It's really fun and kooky! Definitely my new favorite polish.
I will be doing reviews on the products seen above :)

Sailor and the sea
Hello! It's been a while. I've been busy with college, so sorry for the hiatus :( Being a music major is such a crazy job! I'm currently taking a break from studying to post a new look that I have neglected to show! :(
I'm wearing high waist shorts from OASAP, the sailor shirt with suspenders also from OASAP, Glasses from giantvintage.com, and the hat was also from OASAP!
I absolutely adore that shirt. The material is super soft and comfortable. It has little loops for the suspenders to go through on your shoulders. This outfit is perfect for a summer day! Or a day out on the beach :]
The shorts were super cute. I'm short so I'm sort of uncomfortable with how I look in it, but I still wear it ;) It's a size small, but it's pretty big on me...
The hat...Ohhh the hat. I've been dying for this hat. It's a straw flippin hat!! with a cute black bow! Enough said!!!!
Those glasses are absolutely amazing. They're transition lenses!!!! :D They're super cute and I'm in love with that site!!
Please go check out those stores! tell 'em who sent ya! ;)

to nom, or not to nom?
Now, I'm no health advisor or anything, but I really wanted to make a post about dieting and a healthy lifestyle. THIS IS ALL MY FAMILY'S OWN EXPERIENCES THAT WORKED FOR US. For the past two or three years I've been changing my lifestyle because I felt that I was very unhealthy. My weight was about 120 lbs. or so. It was a difficult beginning, but now I really feel so much better and healthier! And the secret is in the foods! Yes, exercise helps, but guys- what you eat truly matters. Changing your diet will help tremendously. Maybe even more than exercising. It's not easy, but it's not a difficult challenge.
My Journey: I started my journey by doing a detox. My family does this certain detox every summer. It's an all vegan detox for 21 days. As a carnivore, I definitely did not want to do it. The first week was all veggies with no flavor. I basically threw a fit :P But then I got used to it, and started enjoying veggies. As we did this detox, we drank shiitake tea, seaweed tea, and carrot with daikon tea. And yes, they tasted like poop. I lost a lot of weight after 21 days. I believe I lost 20 lbs. During this time, I did marching band so I had some sort of exercise. My body got so used to eating vegan or vegetarian, that my taste for burgers or any type of fast food started disappearing. To this day, I am not a fan of food that I or my family didn't make. If I eat anything from a fast food joint, I start having stomachaches. And for the ladies, make sure you keep your bodies healthy. Before I changed my diet, I used to get bad cramps during my time of the month. Afterwards, it all went away!
Drinks: In our family, we don't drink soda or milk (unless it's almond, soy, or skim). We make our own tea, smoothies, but we do have our occasional coffee or jamba juice. Though, my stomach hates me afterwards! Water is a key part to losing weight. You might have heard the whole drink a whole glass before and after eating. Which is very true. Another thing you can drink, BUT ONLY DURING BREAKFAST AND/OR LUNCH, is skim milk. I've been following a one week diet and it consisted of drinking a whole lot of skim milk. Another drink that helps lose weight is green tea! Green tea is super helpful. We drink it before we eat dinner, during, and after dinner. HOT green tea helps burn the fat! I also drink hot tea after I work out, and make sure that it is GREEN TEA! Another one that helps is a concoction of hot water, cinnamon, and honey. Cinnamon helps you lose weight!
Portion Control: Learning how to create a proportioned meal is a big deal. Using a smaller plate or bowl than your usual dinnerware will help. Or if you don't want to do that, just learn to adjust the amount of food you consume every meal! And make sure you are eating at least 3 meals a day! Do not starve yourself! Noooo. Your body will hate you for that!! It will start to think you're starving yourself, therefore it will store even more fat in order to sustain health! Eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner; but also snack! During my high school days, I ate a light breakfast because I tend to get sick in the morning, so I usually eat maybe toast and a fruit. Then I'd snack some almonds until lunchtime.
Organic Foods: Organic foods are healthy right?! all teas are healthy right?! Noooope! Just because it says organic DOES NOT MEAN IT IS!!! Check your ingredients guys!!! Don't be fooled! I always check ingredients before I buy food. High fructose and corn syrup does not sound healthy. Now, I'm a sucker for Tazo Tea, but make sure not to drink those every day! Despite it's deliciousness, it's still high on sugar. Make your own tea and have a Tazo or Arizona every once in a while! My parents and I make our own smoothies just like jamba juice does and we also make our own tea. My current favorite tea is the Jamaica/Gumamela tea that my mom makes. It's literally a bunch of dried flowers, boiled, and we mix honey or sugar and it tastes amazing! Anyway, truly organic food shouldn't last thaaat long on the shelf right? what in the hooting hooty did they use to preserve the product? hmmm... think about it.
What to eat: Eat a lot of greens. Eating a variety of vegetables will increase your health! And it's a good source of fiber! That means you're probably going to poop a lot, but hey... that means it's working. Pooping everyday is healthy. Pooping once a week or less is just not good... For snacks, eat a fruit. Put that potato chip down!!! Eat some almonds! For breakfast, instead of making scrambled eggs, try boiling an egg and eat a whole wheat bread! In our house, we make our own bread and it tastes way better than the store bought ones. I highly suggest investing for a bread machine! For dinner, try baking a skinless chicken or maybe a skinless fish with some steamed veggies!!! maybe have some rice! Start paying attention to what you buy, but of course you can also have your indulgences once in a while!
The key to losing weight is just changing your diet. I am currently 97 lbs and I feel so much healthier. Start researching for books and methods on how to live a healthier lifestyle! The only thing that's stopping you is yourself.

College rant
Trying to figure out which college to transfer to is so difficult! I want to go to a really good school like Long Beach or UC Berkeley... But I hate how the california college system is so crapped up. Not allowing lower division transfers suck so bad!!! I think I've narrowed it down to where I do want to stay at a cal state for my undergrad years. Whether I end up in Long Beach or East Bay, who knows. I really love both of the places. Maybe even Sonoma. Wherever the tide takes me. I'm just really nervous and anxious about the whole thing. I know for a fact that I am not going to graduate as a CSUB Runner. Where I'll be graduating, I'm not sure yet. I've been researching all summer where to go for college. The more I research, the more I get confused with where I want to go... So I'm going to just wait it out and apply to wherever and see where it takes me.
I've also applied at UC Merced a month ago. Still waiting for their reply... I'm not sure if I want to transfer there since their music program doesn't exist. I was planning on doing an intercampus transfer, but college is so dang expensive. If I do end up attending Merced, then I'll probably just finish my gen ed and transfer to Berkeley if I get lucky.
I have so much plans for college and just life in general. I'm just going to wait it out and see where the universe takes me. Wherever I end up, I know I'll be happy. Right now, I'm happy about CSUB but I know it's not THE school. Berkley was, and still is, my favorite college. But I also want to explore. I haven't even seen half the colleges here... I'm even interested with University of Michigan! My high school marching band had a coach last year that graduated form U of M. She was also a band director. She and my director (or I guess ex director) are my role models, so Michigan might be a nice place.
If I could go to an out of state it would either be any Michigan colleges, Ithaca, Oberlin, or Oregon colleges. Oberlin and Ithaca are so expensive. Looking at their tuition and housing prices made me want to gouge my eyes out. Michigan wasn't too bad. Oregon was pretty expensive too, since I'd be an out of state transfer.
I really hope the universe has something good for me in the future. All I want is to go to the best school for me, fall in love with it, and have the time of my life.
Here's another look! All of the items I'm wearing are from forever 21 :)
The dress is from Forever 21 for $20. I absolutely looove this dress. I prefer dresses with the collar and the material is so soft! The belt was from a different dress, but also from forever 21. I actually wore this outfit for graduation!
The shoes are also forever 21 shoes. $20! My favorite flats! I need new flats though... But those are so cute and comfy!

working
So I'm not sure if I told you guys about this, but I work at my alma mater (well volunteer really...) as a visual tech for the marching band. We just finished our band camp, and it ended very very well! We started with one week of basics in the morning then music in the evening. The second week was pure drill. The freshmen adapted well. I'm very pleased with them :) The only problems were the talking and the not knowing how to jazz run. The last day, thursday, the color guard coach (A MEMBER OF THE BLUE DEVIL A CORPS. FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO DON'T KNOW, THEY WON THE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP FINALS AT INDIANAPOLIS) and I taught them how to jazz run better. They eventually understood and did it better. We finished a whopping 17 sets (not including subsets)! So proud of my kids.
We also got a foreign exchange student from Indonesia. He's an amazing piano player and joined the pit. So excited to see him perform. He's a great kid and I'm glad he gets to experience the wonders of marching band! Oh, and our pit instructor is also a blue devils member :)

Elf Cosmetics review
Here’s today’s make up haul!!!
So i’m a big penny pincher… Especially with make up. I don’t like to waste money on a product that I’ll end up hating, but i also hate buying a cheap product and hating it. I was at target today looking for a maybelline eyeliner but instead i stumbled upon E.L.F. products. They are soooo cheap, and they’re actually GOOD products!! I bought:
- Elf hypershine gloss in i believe rose… $1
- Elf blush (no brush included) in tickle pink $3
- Elf matte lip color in rose $3
- Elf eye liner cream in black $3
- Elf all over color stick in persimmon $1
At first I thought it was just a price mistake. NYC doesn’t even price their products that low… But halleloo! They were cheap and i love them!! The All over stick is my favorite. it makes your eyes look great and if you use it as a blush, make syou look fresh. I spreaded it a little but under my eyes and it definitely makes you look more awake. It has a citrus smell, which i absolutely loooove!
I’m a big eye liner fan. I’ve tried the average pencil with the smudger and the pen. The pen I bought prior the elf eye cream dried up so quickly, so i wanted to try the cream liners. I was surprised that these are easier to apply and lighter on the lid. I absolutely love it! I do wish the brush had a longer handle, but Elf also sells a brush collection.
The matte lip color is awesome! light on the lips and i looove the color. I thought it would be too light but it’s just perfect for my skin color. I like how it’s shaped like a pencil too. The lip gloss is also good. It did leak a bit, but that’s ok :P It has minty feel to it as well! Both the lip products have good tastes compared to covergirl’s lipsticks. They evens smell nice :)
I usually use a blush stick for blush or some kind of tint stuff. sometimes i use lipstick. I wanted to try an actual blush so I tried this one and I love it. It’s not too much on my skin. I’m dark so anything too dark or too bright looks stupid. These products are light but subtle. I highly suggest trying the elf products :)

dorms
Hello! I am so sorry again for being absent, but I'm officially moving this september so I'm now getting ready for the big day :] There's not much to update besides that XD I went to the theater with my mates and we watched The Dark Knight Rises. AND LET ME TELL YOU THIS: I CRAPPED MY PANTS IT WAS SO GOOD. WOW. GREAT MOVIE. EVERYONE NEEDS TO SEE IT. IT SHOULD BE LAW.
Back to reality, I'm moving to my university's dorm :) I'm really nervous and excited, and I hope to have a good time there. I'm upset about being away from my parents and not eating healthy food though... That's a big issue with me. My stomach is very sensitive with fried things, meat, or anything not homemade. -_- At least I get to go home every weekend. It's going to be weird being away from my family. I'm scared that I'll start bawling, but oh well. I have to try living away >_> Wish me luck ya'll!

updates
So I haven't had the time to blog because I recently had a show :) My first time singing in public too, so that was super cool. We were headlining! ANNND I have a test on thursday.. ICK. AAAANNND now, I might have to live on campus for college so I've been researching costs and will start packing my belongings. I can't believe it :/ I'm really sad about it because I'm very close to my parents. I love them and not being able to see them everyday sounds awful. I'll cope, but I'm sure I'll end up bawling my eyes out. Well, there you go. I'm going to study more and I hope I'll find time soon. Ta ta for now!

Chops
This documentary is so amazing. It is very relatable and inspiring as a musician and student. The way these kids talk about music, play their instruments, react, feel, breathe, and live music is so breathtaking and inspiring. This documentary is why I want to be a band director. Kids like them are so inspiring and rewarding. When I was a drum major, I absolutely loved hearing inspired kids. I could talk about music and the program all day with them. I still get a lot of kids talking to me about stuff like that and it feels so good when they get inspired. I feel enlightened and happy :] I highly suggest watching this documentary especially if you are a musician. I'm currently on a musical slump if that makes sense... and watching this movie was exactly what I needed. I miss jazz band so much. I mean, I love marching band and orchestral music, but man... Jazz is the type of music that can bring out a lot of different type of people I think. There's so many different styles to it. Just absolutely amazing. Also, if you're a musician, you might just tear up or bawl watching this movie. I sure did....

This outfit is worn by my friend Megan. She's wearing a pencil skirt I bought from target, a forever 21 tank, my necklace from Romwe, and sandals from forever 21. Not sure where she bought her glasses, but they're simple aviators. This is a perfect outfit for a day out with friends. It's simple and chic :)

This outfit is something I wear usually on a nice warm day. Spring or summer, it don't matta! :) The fabric of the hawaiian shirt is really light and cool to wear during a hot day. I love to wear comfortable and simple outfits, but I also like to be unique. I think the hawaiian shirt completes the unique part ;P

I got this cute necklace from the giveaway romwe was doing last month. It's so cute! I've been eyeing necklaces like these, but I never had the money to actually purchase one, and due to my school activities, I rarely wore any accessories. Not because I can't, it's just a hassle... So anyway, It has a vintage look to it, very light, not too long, and super adorable!
college
I have two, maybe one, months left until i start college. I'm just so dang excited!! :] It's torture just waiting for the time to pass... Lately I've caught myself logging on my account and checking my classes to see how many people are in there. I have a serious case of excitement and anxiousness...

romwe sweater
So I got my purchases from romwe!! :) I'm in love with this sweater. it's so soft and not itchy! :D Such a cute design too. I'll post about the other freebies as soon as they're out of the wash! XD
a little about me
For those of you who don't know, I'm a music education major at Cal State Bakersfield. I'm a freshman :) I'm hoping to become a band director one day :) I play in a ska band. I actually replaced the alto sax player that they had because he moved for college </3 He was a good friend of mine and such an amazing sax player... I sound like a sack of potatoes compared to him. I'll be better than him one day ;)
Here's my band at Rockin' Roots 2012! This was my second show too, so huzzah for me! :) Hmm well that's all I can think of right now!! Sooo tune in?!
romwe purchases
So I recently participated in Romwe's video collection and received a few gifts. I had the opportunity to purchase whatever I wanted, receive a pair of leggings, a shirt, and an accessory.On the side is what I've purchased :) I really love this website!! Hope to purchase more stuff from them in the future. My order is coming in a few days! X)
eyeliner review
My favorite liquid liner right now. It’s really easy to use, lasts very long, and doesn’t smudge. Application is smooth! I’m really big on organic and hypoallergenic stuff. Before I buy make up, I research on them. Might be weird, but I like to make sure it’s a good product. Physician’s Formula products are usually expensive, but this is about $7 bucks at your local drugstore. It’s hypoallergenic and fragrance free.
So I just bought this amazing new bag from Oasap.com!!! I'm really loving this site! I'll be posting photos once I receive it! :)
why hello there
So I'll try this blogger thingy thing :) I'm not quite used to blogger. I'm more of a tumblr user... But we'll see how this goes. I'll be posting reviews on make up, clothes, etc. tune in for more posts in the future ;)
