MAC Liquidlast Liner

So after using MAC lilquidlast liner in point black a couple of times, here is what I think of it

Product: MAC lilquidlast liner - Point Black
Cost: $16.50
Picture:


What I do like:
- i love the finish
- lasts a very long time!
- doesn't smear as long as you let it dry all the way


What I don't like:
- takes long time to dry
- the brush is too long and lines my lashes as well! (So my outer cornerlashes are naturally curled, so when I use this and try to line the outercorner, the tip of the brush is on my lid but it also its swipes across my lashes, i have a very hard time at applying it because the brush is long)
- takes longer to apply then gel liners
- tough to take off


I guess I can use this for situations where I need it to stay all day and not smear, like a going to a water park or something.

I'll give it a 2.5/5

Best-O-Burger

I am just posting random places because my co-worker suggested it and I want to remember to try it out. so Best-o-burger cheap but good sliders with fries and curly fries!! sounds kinda good. i brought my lunch today so maybe I will try it 2m or when i forget lunch.
I am trying to be good with my eating habits and only be bad once or twice a week. yesterday I had a salad for lunch and some green beans and snap peas as a "snack" lol. salad again today, but this time, with some tri tip, i do love me some beef!! and i am trying to cut down on my starbucks addiction..lol

New Hobby?

If you don't know, I LOOOVE TO EAT!!! and i think that should be my newfound glory. I am sure I will have to work out 2xs as much as I am now, which is 0, lol but my god, i've been drooling all day looking at food places. SF is having this Dine About Town thing that ends at the end of January, where "3-course lunch for $21.95 or dinner for $34.95" are available at super fancy resturants! I haven't got a chance to go yet, but I think I will be spending my final days in some of those resturants! or at least I want to. Mostly for dinner, since I have work until 5:30pm

I also want to go to "The Stinking Rose" i do love me some garlic!! haha. will add to list when i find more gooodies!! haha

Happy Lunar New Years!




Hey, just wanted to stop by and wish every one a Happy Lunar New years!! I wish I could have taken the day off, but I guess work isn't too bad! I had tons of fun at home yesterday though. We cooked, we ate and gambled! lost all my damnn quarters tooo!! I found this picture online, its a verry common game in vietnamese culture! So there is 3 dice, each with the picture of a rooster, bau, deer, fish, crap, and shrimp. so you would place ur bet on one of the picture and the dealer will shake the dice on a plate under a bowl, and once everyone's bet is down the dealer will lift the bowl and reveal the 3 dice. if the picture of your bet shows up, you will win either your original bet if 1 of the dice is the same pic, you win twice if 2 of the dice are the same and 3 times if all 3 dice are the same. fun! haha
okay have a safe and prosperous new years everyone =)
