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 =)

Digital Camera?

So my first real paycheck comes next week, and all my coworkers been asking what I am going to buy with it! One said an LV purse, or something big and expensive. I havent figured it out yet, until now...I think I am going to get a Digital Camera! The one I have been using is kinda like the family camera and my webcam from my laptop, but I want me own personal camera. I, of course, have to do some research for a good one, but thats why I am blogging here =) i want to ask you're opinion on what a good digi-cam would be!

Painterly Paint Pot & CPA

So, if you didnt know, i've been wanting painterly paint pot for the longest! i finally got it in a swap on makeupalley. =) am i satisfied? i guess im okay about it! lol i like it as a base, but it creases on me =( i also got all my hauls from mac...i am loving nocturnelle!! will swatch/pics later.

i feel sad that i have to be studying the CPA soon. I just finished school and more studying to doo!! at least the info from school will be pretty fresh in my mind!

Reasons why I am taking CPA:
-I will be hirely desirable as an employee...lol
-Make more bank...
-Further my education
-Because it sounds cool on my business card to be Nancy, Certified Public Accountant
-work is boring at the moment and it will keep me busy
- i got 2 free review courses

reasons why i dont?
-ITS HARD!!
-overall passing rate is a lil less then 50%
-its 14 hours of fantastic fun! 4 parts ranging from 2.5-4.5 hrs, you dont have to take 4 parts all at once.
-its on the computer...

playing with make up all day is soooo much easier! haha

Forever21 Hauling

So I thought I would do a bit of a clothing haul since I landed a new job, i need clothes for work duh! lol Some are for work and some are just for fun =D
Silhouette Satin Lace Corset - $17.80 (for fun days) H81 Pinstriped Minidress - $24.90 (for work days)
Naomi Slouched Boots - $34.80 (work & fun)
Faux Fur Line Boot - $32.80 (My bearpaws broke/soles got worn out and I cant find uggs in kid size 4, all backordered until February, hopefully they will keep my toes-ies warm and dry)
H81 Silk Floral Top - $24.90 (work & fun)
Layne Faux Leather Tote - $34.80 (my love big purses! and since i don't really have a brown one, i thought i would give this a try!)

This would hold me down for a bit, while I find more things I need/want!

I also got some more gel lines from Coastalscents, in Peach Belini, True Black (since I didnt get it the first time around, not sure if i will be quick to use it since i still have like 1/2 of my blacktrack fluidline left), and Grape Vine.
I swapped my MAC Invisible Set Powder in Invisible & my MAC 181se on Make-up Alley for MAC Blush in Hipness from the FAFI Collection and MAC Blush in Sincere & eyeshadow in Scene, and I looked around to see what else would be a good setting powder or whatever, i found a good alternative would be Silica powder, which I can buy from Coastalscents as well, its $4 for 1oz, and they have reviews/comments on there about how its the same as MUFE HD Powder. Plus if it doesn't work out I had a MAC Pro store not too far from me.
and my god, i just spent like $175 at Victoria Secret for their Semi-annual sale, since i've been passing them up, i got 4 bras & 7 panties. I havent got bras from them for such a long time and the ones I have are kinda worn out...

Okay, sleeping early, work tomorrow, gotta make $$ to pay these off, I should just cut up my credit cards!! lol
