Growing up or am just no longer me anymore? || 14 Nov 2008

current listening: Dreams [The Cranberries]
current mood: it's something

Lately, school has been going pretty slow and I've been very busy from the beginning of last weekend to maybe a bit to now. Actually, I have a lot to do over this coming weekend, but nothing that has to be done soon so I guess I'm gonna take a break, but I can hear the sound of mommy wanting me to come home, but I don't feel like going home, so I signed up for work over the weekend. I've been skipping work a lot so I need to catch up with the hours. I got my first two paychecks and I'm not familiar with being paid yet, so nyuu will give it time to sink in.

What else is going on with the life of nyuu? Nothing really, been traveling alone a lot lately in her mind, drifting all over the places, and perhaps, hurting. Nyuu doesn't feel (or have she ever really?) like talking to anyone about it and instead, of going home, I wanna be more distance from people. I think its pretty something that people see how happy I am, full of energy and playing with a ball of yarn, when I'm actually pretty dead inside...I can't tell the difference if I am changing, growing up, or ran into the wrong light.. am I turning into a butterfly or am I stuck inside my cocoon?

On a brighter note
, a few days ago it was my first time cooking with potatoes, I know..it took me this long
to learn how to cook something else rather than eggs and microwaveables.

I call it my specialty: popota:


popota

And then...last week I've received a package of M.A.C and NYX makeup
 
aren't they pretty? Nyuu haven't even tried them out yet..I just like looking at them X3


MAC & NYX

NYX:
(White) auto pencil eye
(White) Long Pencil eye
(Black) Doll Eye Long Lash Mascara
Glitter mania jumbo Pencil (crystal)
Sweet heart lipgloss
Powder Blush (Mauve)
Felt Tip pencil eye liner (jet black)
triple eyeshadow (white/grey/black)
M.A.C:
Tinted lip conditioner spf 15 (petting pink)
Studio Finish spf 35 Concealer (NC20)


Well, that's all nyuu wanted to blog about...if nyuu ever feels like playing with makeup, I'll show you the result, but I've never really used eyeshadows before, and never have tried eyeliner before...
nor do nyuu have those eye primer thingy so.. we'll see.
baainiii~

Forgot to bring her Camera || 26 Oct 2008

current listening: Rosemary's Baby [Fantomas]
current mood: not so sure

nyuu is baack. sorry, (again) for being gone for so long and not having time to visit all my blog buddies, but I'll be sure to do that right after posting this entry up. Nyuu never thought I would be this busy to keep me away from even blogging! School and work is consuming me *cries* School is really stressing me out, nyuu is so weak...wants someone to tell me everything will be fine. But, not just anyone..
Oh, and nyuu is finally done with midterms..and the next patch of midterms is coming up very...soon. lol nyuu is really scare of getting her midterm results back... considering I know that I didn't do so well on any of them. I just hope this is the side-effects from working..
and when nyuu gets use to it..I'll do better?

Nyuu forgot her camera at her apt. and is blogging from home. So I cant take pictures of what I bought yesterday lol
I bought a new messenger bag (i know, i'm obsessive over buying bags), and a new knee-long socks.
Its pink with white polka dots XD

Tomorrow I have a skit to perform so... yea, I didn't start rehearsing yet.. so nyuu is pretty freaked out right now hehe..
but its okie... get to eat cake in front of people, that shouldn't be too hard. lol

*knees on floor* kyAAA!! Nyuu need to find time to update this blog
 and switch over to wp and finish her new layout

oh, and new blog buddies, go visit them under the link section!

School+Working+Sick= wth? *pout* || 12 Oct 2008

current listening: Goodnight Moon [Shivaree]
current mood: stress for the sicken

Sorry, for the long absence. As nyuu mentioned previously, nyuu got hired and is now working at nights while trying to joggle that with school. Some asked what I do for my job, lol Give me your numbers and I'll tell you. *evil side laughter* okie, well, what I do is basically stare at the computer screen all day (surfing the internet, doing homework) while on the phone calling alumnis and parents to give gifts to the school. The way we were trained.. we bite hard and will not let go until you donate XD LOL. It's pretty funny, but it's really hard because... nyuu doesn't like to ask people for things, even if I was in a bloodbath of pain, yea, I still won't call for help. Nyuu wants to talk to the manager and ask them if somehow they can just make something new like make me go see people in person and steal their money to donate for the school XD because I'm better at persuing people when face to face. ..stop picturing me biting people in real life! XD

This is nyuu's first time working so I have not yet learnt how to manage my time to handle school at the same time. Because you see, I have classes all day and like 1-2 hour break before work starts. And work ends at 9pm...and I have to wait for the bus. By the time I get back to the apt, it is around 9:45pm-10:00pm. by this time I am too tired to do my homework. I was planning to get a lot of things catch up this weekend and study for my midterms, but I got sick. So instead, I spent the whole Saturday in bed drowning in my sniffle nose. Ahhh, my nose is still sniffly now! I got a cold from having the window wide open and not enough blankey when I was sleeping.
  Why didn't anyone put an extra blankey and roll me up into a sushi roll for me?

ohh, besides being sick and having to work and having so much work load of studying to do... internet at the apt. is being mean! Seriously, I am tired of comcast, and I am gonna go attack comcast one of these days lol. oh yea, I was wondering how I got the image of self in bloodbath.. XD Because I was actually in a bloodbath this morning. I was bleeding like crazy and the sink was full of blood. eeeeh, I'm okie though. I just need to take care of myself better.
okie, internet just got disconnected and I had to powercycle the modem again. meeh.. so I'll just keep this blog entry short. I'll visit my blog buddies soon!

oh..since I'm busy, Wordpress will just have to wait. Since I have put the new layout on hold.

Something New Coming? || 22 Sep 2008

[edit:] nyuu went to a job interview and was hired on the spot!!  money money $$  [/end edit]

current listening
: Your Piano [Meiko]
current mood:
current obsession: Penelope

Sorry for taking so long to post a new entry. But I was working on a new layout and it takes awhile since I'm actually putting a bit more effort into it. On another note, thank you for everyone who commented on my previous entry, and the great suggestions on how to transfer cutenews entries over to wordpress. I might just have to end up doing what Momo had suggested, which is doing it by hand and copying all the old post to WP, which shouldn't be too hard because this site is still pretty new so not a lot of posts to copy over. 

So nyuu's one week of vacation is about to end with fall quarter about to start. Instructions starts on Thursday and I'm planning to head over back to my apt. on Tuesday so I can hang out with my roommates, friends, and buy textbooks. oh the joy of expensive books.. But yesterday nyuu FINALLY got to go shopping at the mall. It's been so long since I've been to the mall so everything seems different. Afterall, I was in another country for awhile and when I came back nyuu locked herself in summer school. I'll share what I have bought (oh yes, school deposited money into my bank so nyuu was a happy shopper)

nyuu bought a new bag (nyuu has an attraction to plaids...)
plaid bag

a new coat, brand: Dollhouse (i never heard of this brand, but the name made me more willingly to buy it even though it wasn't on sale) The picture didn't capture the bottom well, but its like frills (nyuu has like over 4 coats that are plaids..)
dollhouse plaid coat

and bought my first belt, it cost $7.50
bow belt

then here is my first pair of *super* skinny jeans, size 0/short..
I had to ask the person who worked there to find my size..and so he
went to the back and got it for me
super skinny jeans

of course, nyuu stop by at Sanrio and bought two pencils--kuromi and the new hello kitty theme..
amazingly reminded me of my current layout theme, cupcakes.
Also, I went to Wal-mart and bought a pair of tights
sanrio n socks

also, bought a top..it was the last one, I think.. and it fitted me perfectly
vest

Besides shopping at the mall and walmart, nyuu also shopped online as well..

nyuu bought new brushes from everyday minerals and of course, while I'm at it, why not get free samples? hehe and I grouped some eyeshadows that I have bought long time ago from edm in the picture, which I have never even opened before Nyuu wuv edm brushes. Will recommend it to anyone.
everyday minerals

nyuu also purchased a few item from NYX, I've never tried this brand before, but so many people kept saying how great it is and its so affordable..so nyuu went and tried it.
I have no idea why I bought the Twin Cake foundation..it must have been the word "cake" that made me blindly buying it
(darn people tricking food-addicted people into buying their products)
And I picked out a blush from NYX in PB05 Pinky color. I tried the blush, it is
very pigmented, which is a good sign. The color was nice, good quality and it lasted the whole day. nyuu will try more colors from their blush collections in the future.
NYX

I'm not sure if anyone have noticed, but these pictures were taken by my new camera hehe I have finally picked out a camera, a few people had suggested Canon Powershots, so nyuu bought that model, SD790is. nyuu wuv her new camera.


Also, new link exchange with: Emma and Xin-yi

nyuu didn't reply to any comments in last post because nyuu was very occupied, but nonetheless I did read all of
 them and it makes me happy that people offer help and support. <3 Thank youuu
Oh, and my final grades came out for the two classes I took for summer school,
Nutrition
: A
Macro Econ: B

Nyuu needed an A for Macro Econ.

Summer School II is over... || 12 Sep 2008

{Edit} nyuu decided to play around with wordpress, the last time she tried wordpress was long-long time ago XD but,  the new wordpress is so much easier to use =D But not sure if I should switch over from cutenews to wordpress..i still like cutenews very much. Does anyone know if you can move cutenews posts over to wp?   {/ End Edit}


current listening:
Still Doll [Kanon Wakeshima]
current mood still breathing

Well, since Wednesday night I am finally done with summer school (6 weeks). I did awful on my macro econ final...so there's no hope of scoring an A in the class. My vacation is ruined because of it *sigh* but ah well, I guess I tried. It would have been nice if the professor or the TA would have warned us that the final will consist of totally different materials from the practice exams he gave us. All in all, its over now and nyuu just have to wait for final grades to be posted up.

So what is nyuu's plan for the short vacation before fall quarter starts? nyuu has absouletly no idea. hehe But I do hope to get to go to the Sanrio store. I am so sanrio-deprived that I keep going online to look at hello kitty stuff. eee..nyuu not obsessed! lala.. ooh and nyuu cut her own hair It's not much a difference, but I'm trying to grow out my damaged hair and chop it all off. *nyuu likes short hair better* hehe I can't wait to have short hair again.

peek a boo

Nyuu has not have black hair for basically 5-6 years now. And I've attempted before to have her hair black again, but somehow..my blond hair comes creeping back. Weird isn't it? But, finally I've achieved black hair and so far its been lasting the longest, but now..some blondness is creeping out XD I remember when I was on campus with black hair and people didn't recognize me =_=; pu. Oh, my natural hair color is dark-dark brown, don't ask me why blonde comes back... 'casue nyuu really doesn't understand herself. My logic was because I'm a natural dumb blonde eeh.. its not fun being dumb. Nyuu always have to struggle in school because I'm so slow! *deep sigh*
 
Besides that, nyuu keeps thinking about her trip over the first half of the summer to China/HK and the stories that she has never revealed to anyone. I've shown people the nice and fun part of china in my post before, but never the ugly side. I was ready to explode while I was in Hong Kong I got extremely sick while I was there too. I was coughing my heart out. But that wasn't even the bad part. If nyuu was borned in a very very poor environment and family was starving, I really think he would have sold me into prostitution. I know he would still consider it if there was that oppurtunity for him to recieve money. Is it really awful to think that about one's own father? And then have a mother who said nothing, but instead gets angry at me. Even the Taxi Driver felt sorry and worried.

Summer school is over, there is no reason for me to head
off to the library early in the morning and coming back to
her apt in the late night anymore...

~ruri-iro~ cleaning beauty || 06 Sep 2008

current listening: seventh heaven [L'Arc~en~Ciel]
current mood: sleepy

nyuu is very tired today, usually on Fridays I am often found napping nyuu likes naps. Reason being that I am tired on fridays is because I usually travel back home during the weekends from my apt. It's a lot of hassle because I have to wake up early on fridays and clean up the apt, I have this habit of cleaning the place before I leave because nyuu just likes going back to a nice, cleaned apt. Even though it is a new apt, with new roommates, we have not discuss how we are gonna take turns cleaning or any rules yet, so hopefully, I am not doing all the work again like my last experience. After cleaning I am pretty much tired and ready for her nap, but that is when my parents come pick me up. Yes, I know... nyuu doesn't own a car neither do I know how to drive yet. I think owning a car is a nuisance because it is so expensive to own one and worst of all you cant bring your lovely inside the house...can't stare at it when you're on your bed ready to fall asleep XD The garage is not my favorite place to put my precious belongings in too. And of course, I am saving the world by not driving (i.e. global warming, not causing a huge accident) If you've seen me drive virtually on a video game..you'll understand. I'm either very destructive or very clumsy..wait, I think being clumsy is what provoke such destructive activity...hmm.

REN apricot jam

Speaking of activiy, one of my post mentioned that I had purchased an expensive product online from Sephora. It is a skin care product, a mask to be more exact. I was in need of a weekly mask treatment so I was searching around and
found this. REN: Glycolatic Skin Renewal Peel Mask
. Taken from Sephora's site:

 
This gentle but potent peel mask is formulated to dramatically
remove dead cells, smooth lines, and help prevent the appearance of
spots and blackheads.


I've tried it for a week and a half and so far I really like it especially the smell. XD It smells like apricot jam. (yes, it is true, anything that smells fruity, nyuu approves) Other than the smell, I can see that my pores appear smaller *yay* and I had a few blackheads on my nose that appears to be gone too, but for $55 I think there are cheaper products out there that can deliver the same results. So I have to try it out a couple more weeks and see if it was worth the price. Also, REN does not contain harsh chemicals which was the main reason why it lured me into clicking on the purchase button. XD
