Little things I got after getting my first paycheck

It was payday last Thursday and it was my day off yesterday, so I got the chance to shop for stuff I want. *winks* I feel good seeing my paycheck 'coz I know it's money I worked so hard for. At least I won't have to give my hubs a headache everytime I want to buy something. Since it's my first paycheck, I bought stuff that aren't really expensive. I don't have a car yet, so I didn't have the chance to go the mall and pick out some stuff. I wanted to buy shoes and a cute purse, but that has to wait. We have bills to pay, so I can't just use all my paycheck on things I just want. But getting these simple things yesterday made me feel happy inside. 'Coz I was able to buy it with my own hard earned money.

I'm not allergic to Maybelline, so I got these stuff I need


Here are the rest of the stuff I got: Sponge applicators for my foundation, facial wash, eyeliner, concealer, mascara, lip balm, lipstick, face powder, nail polish, and blush

I know that most women would prefer MAC and all the other high end stuff, but I have to be realistic and practical, so those expensive stuff will have to wait. I can settle for these drugstore brands, 'coz they work for me and it's not heavy on the pocket.

I gotta start saving for a car.

Oks lang naman kahit drug store brand, and importante ay hindi ka allergic. They wouldn't know if it's MAC or Walgreens pag nasa mukha na diba? :-)

Crafts for less

I don't really know what it is with the holiday season, but my "craftiness" usually kicks in whenever Christmas is fast approaching. It all started about a year ago when I decided to make personalized cards and gifts for my friends, family members, and colleagues. My Mom is really crafty, but I wasn't really interested in making projects when I was a lot younger, 'coz I'm just too lazy to even think about a concept. Our house in the Philippines will always be festive by October 'coz my Mom will decorate the entire place with so much attention to every detail, so that her holiday theme will flow all throughout our house. Meanwhile, I will just sit on the couch and watch TV and lounge like there's no tomorrow. I showed no interest at all, as everything was just too much for my brain cells to handle.

2012

I'm on a standstill. I feel so lost - I have lost myself into oblivion and I don't know if I can find myself again. All I see is darkness - I feel weak and hopeless. When will this agony end?  I want to be thankful for the blessings I have received, but the pain and challenges over shadows all the good things that are happening to me.  I feel like there's a dark cloud above me that just won't go away. It just sits there and I think it waits for me to feel really down and rain will just pour and wash way everything that I have left - my strength, hope, determination... everything. This feeling is killing me. When will the sun shine again? I want to quit. I can't quit. I wish I was a kid again, so I won't have to worry about grown up stuff. Growing up is hard, no one told me it is going to be easy in the first place. Who was I kidding?  I have to get out of this rut and be my strong, sure self again. This feeling is tiring.  I need that little glimmer o...

My first CVS make-up haul

One of my favorite fashion/beauty bloggers, April made me want to run out of our house at 10pm and go to CVS to check out their 75% off deal. She got a lot of make-up for less than $50! You can find her haul here:  http://aprilathena7.blogspot.com/2011/01/cvs-75-drugstore-cosmetic-sale.html . I love make-up, but I don't go for the expensive stuff. I still can't convince myself to splurge on make-up, especially that I don't really wear tons of it everyday. Since I was jealous about April's haul, I went ahead and dropped by the nearest CVS after work last Sunday, January 9th. I only got a few items 'coz the store near my place didn't really have a lot of stuff on sale. I think the 75% deal depends on which store you go to. On my first visit, I saved a total of $19.62! Then, I had to visit another store near my workplace 'coz I figured they have a wider range of choices there and I was happy that I wasn't disappointed with what I have found on the sale ...
