PMS is a fakeng betch

I can't remember the last time I felt like this. My hormones are acting up SO badly that it cannot be compared to any other bad days I've ever had. 


Every morning.......





This and Coffee. My every morning!

Divergent and Mondays

1.) I loved the movie and I'm glad that I haven't read the book because then I might be just like my friend, Faith, who read the book and got disappointed with the movie. The book will always just be better than the movie and so I learned my lesson to not read the book first and I'm glad I didn't. In that case, there are no expectations so there will be no disappointments. Don't we all know that disappointments come from expectations. (CHAR)

I really loved the movie and I have kind of high standards (char again) when it comes to liking movies. I don't just like all movies. I find a lot of movies boring and disappointing but this one is good. I rate it 9 stars out of 10. 9 because I didn't have someone to cuddle with during the movie (3rd char). HA HA HA. Honestly, I don't mind watching movies alone but I'm glad I went with my friends this time. I now get why my nephew Andre can't stop obsessing about the movie!!!!!! He wants to watch it again and I think I want to watch it again too. Just like Catching Fire. I was so impressed with the movie I had to watch it twice in the cinema. Heehee. Fangirl here.

2.) Today is Monday and I'm so happy because there are a lot of things to be happy about. :D I can't believe how great law of attraction works for me every.single.time. I was just thinking about how much I wanted to get something that I thought was not going to happen anytime soon but just as I started thinking about it and how much I wanted/needed it, it sure came! I didn't have to look for it. It came knocking at my door. So that's one! I mean the wonder of law of attraction not what I attracted. LOL. It's pretty shallow so no need to talk about it so much!

3.) My legs are so sore which is good because that only means that I had a good workout yesterday. I'm happy because I'm finally doing something about my forever rant and this time, I think I will succeed. :D

4.) I had a weird craving this morning. I'm craving for cold cold beer. I've been wanting to drink since last Saturday night but then I got lazy so nothing happened. Also, I'm trying to cut down my alcohol intake since I'm trying to lose weight. Last night, we all had one bottle of beer each to "celebrate" the start of our first day of "training" together. It was a lot of fun though now that I think of it. hehe I have delayed reaction. Took me almost 24 hours to realize how much fun I had. Anywaaaaay, was craving for beer this morning. Really craving. LIKE I-WANT-TO-DRINK-BEER-SO-BAD kind of craving. I think it's my PMS but it's just so weird that I crave for beer like my liver just couldn't wait for it's reunion with alcohol.

5.) My dinner is served but I'm still full and is procrastinating not to eat it yet but I need to hurry cos I need to leave home in 15mins. I wonder how I'll be able to fit eat, shower, get ready all in 15 mins. Maybe it'll help if I stop blogging. So yeah, I guess this is bye!!

6.) PS. I'm still addicted to Find You by Zedd because it's one of Divergent's soundtrack and just because!!

In a hurry,

Annie

LSS of the day


I'll run away with your foot steps
I'll build a city that dreams for two
and if you lose yourself, I will find you

new best friend: Concealer and Pond's BB Cream review

I didn't understand it when beauty enthusiasts always choose concealer as their favorite beauty product among any other beauty product. I mean how can you choose concealer when (I thought) it wasn't important? I wasn't really a concealer person until my recent trip to the beach and now my whole beauty regimen has changed.

Every girl should find what beauty products and regimen works for them. What works for me might not work for you and vice versa. Anyway, I'm happy with my new found beauty regimen. It's much simpler than my old one! Will post both regimen for comparison.

I stopped using pressed powder/foundation ever since I found out about Benefit's Porefessional and Pond's BB cream. They instantly became my holy grail and I couldn't go one day without my BB cream. Couldn't stop hyping about it that I received 6 tubes of it for Christmas. It's insane! 

Anyway, since I used Pond's BB Cream, I stopped using pressed powder because the bb cream alone was enough to make my face stay matte the whole day with only a little oiliness at the end of the day. Its formula makes you sweat less and makes you less oily making your face look fresh the whole day! It also gives your face glowing the whole day. It's my secret to staying fresh ;) KIDDING! 

The light was too light for me though and the beige was waaaaay too dark for my skin tone which made me realize that it's easier to blend a lighter bb cream to your face than to blend a darker shade. I'm not satisfied with the light shade now and way unhappier with the beige shade. Thinking of mixing both shades which makes it such a hassle!! As if my makeup kit is not big enough to carry around now I'm thinking of carrying 2 tubes of bb cream! 

Anyway, I mastered the art of applying makeup while driving. That's my everyday routine. 
  • Wake up
  • Drink Calamansi juice 
  • Drink coffee
  • Eat breakfast
  • Procrastinate a little
  • Take a bath
(I know that there's something wrong with this routine that's taking me so much time to get ready for work. Somewhere between wake up and take a bath there are a lot of things going on. Shall do something about this! It should be wake up, take a bath and drink coffee. maybe i should eat my breakfast in my office. Will try it next week when I come back from Manila.)
  • Drive to work
  • Apply make up while driving
  • Get to work at 10AM (WTF) 
  • Be awesome. (wink)
I'm not happy with this even though I still go to my sister's office every morning to do stuff, I still want to make it to a point that I get to my office early. My target is to get to work before 8am but so far I was only able to go to work before 8am once. SO NOT PROUD ABOUT THIS. 

It should be my main target this March. I cant believe 2 months have passed and I've been slacking off like a crazy woman with my wake up early resolution. In fact, I find my self waking up later each day. I just don't understand because I have not been going out at night anymore! 

Random note: My body's craving alcohol. I want to drink beer below zero now! UGH.

The thing is, I really want to set myself as an example to my colleagues. I just cannot stomach going to work late every single day anymore!! God, please help me with this!!

Queen of disorganized thoughts. DRIFTED AGAIN.

Back to my makeup routine:

OLD Makeup routine:

  • Ponds BB Cream
  • Concealer (optional) only on days I feel like putting it on because I feel that the BB cream was able to cover everything I want to hide *ehemeyebagsehem*
  • Shu Eumura eyebrow pencil
and anything I feel like adding on after. 
  • contour cheeks
  • add blush on or cheek tints
  • lipstick or lip balm depending on my mood
  • sometimes when Im feeling a little brow OC I use 3 to 4 products in it. You'll know I took time with my brows if it looks extra nice. If it was being uneven, I just penciled it while driving. LOL

New makeup routine


  • primer (optional)
  • concealer
  • eyebrow pencil
  • Shu Eumura Princess lip and cheek tint!!!!!!!!!!!! (HYPE OVERLOAD)
  • contour cheeks (gotta give the illusion of thinner face heehee :>)
I love my new makeup routine because I wear less makeup now. I never really liked wearing too much makeup or foundation on my face because it feels fake. I want to look naturally good and I think it's every woman's goal. Women spend so much time applying their makeup to look like they didn't put on any. It still depends on my mood which makeup routine I prefer and depends on where I'm going. Lately, I've been loving my zero makeup on just moisturizer face. I no longer feel not presentable.

If you read this, make sure that you get the Shu Uemura Princess lip and cheek tint NOW!!!!!! because 1.) It's limited edition and I don't think they still have a lot of it in the market. :( Good news though, I asked my friend from Japan to hoard 6 tubes of this 3 tubes from me (:p) and 3 tubes will be for sale! GO GET IT NOW!
2.) IT'S SUPER AWESOME I CANNOT...................................................
3.) Ever since this makeup product, I've been obsessed with cream makeup! Blush, lip products and is currently looking for a cream bronzer because of it's convenience. I don't need to carry around a brush anymore. Just my hands. LOL

MAKEUP WISHLIST:

Nars Matte Bronzing Sticks (The Multiple)

Makeup crazy,

Annie
