Job and reviews

I haven't blogged in awhile because I've been busy since I recently got a job~! I've been trying to get one for a long time now. The economy has been bad though so it has been really hard for a lot of people to find a job. I'm a cashier, whoo.

So far it's been tough because I work 8 hour days for the most part, 4 days a week. Today I only work four later on. It's not just standing and cashiering all day long though, it's also lifting heavy objects for customers. I end up feeling so tired at the end of the day.  In any case, it's great to finally have a job~! I work on my birthday though (3/20).

Which reminds me...my birthday! I can't believe that I will be 22 in less than 2 weeks. People are always shocked enough to hear that I'm 21, they always think I'm so much younger.  笑 I have no idea what I'm going to do for my birthday...probably just hang out with my close group of friends~

Anyway, I bought a few things recently, I guess I'll review them~!


First up, Vaseline's Moisturizing Bath Beads enriched in Silk Protein. I got the "Soft Petal" fragrance. 
From the back of the box:

"Step into a luxuriously fragrant bath experience that softens your skin. Emerge with a relaxed body and renewed spirit. The romantic soft petal scent combines hints of rose, tuberose, and gardenia. Vaseline Intensive Care Moisturizing Bath Beads soften and condition your skin through a Silk Protein enriched formula that also contains a special Skin Softening Complex."

I liked that these bath beads are very affordable. I can't remember exactly how much they were when I got them a few weeks ago, but something like 2-3 dollars. The scent is lovely too! I even poured a small amount into a small cup as a potpourri-type of thing for my room. It smells so good. It definitely has a nice floral smell with hints of rose. It definitely leaves your skin feeling nice and soft! It didn't change the water color though. You can get this at many places such as Walmart.

I also bought Pond's new bio-hydratante dual cleansing lotion. According to the bottle it is dermatologist-tested, won't clog pores, and is hypoallergenic. I use it to remove makeup and moisturize my face. I have acne-prone skin and this hasn't seemed to give me any breakouts. At first when you apply it, it feels pretty oily, but then after a few minutes it drys and your skin feels soft and smooth without any oily feeling! It removes makeup wonderfully. It is also very cool to look at in the bottle, because the upper clear liquid must be some sort of oil, and the lower part is a water-based liquid. I will get this again!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Hello all~ Happy Valentine's Day!

First off, I appologize for not posting recently. My laptop's ac adaptor/power cord went berserk and stopped working. It started shooting sparks out of it and it wouldn't charge  I haven't had access to a regular computer much, I can only occasionally use the family (mainly my brother's) PC. It's in the basement and it's really cold down there... so yeah  Otherwise, I'm stuck using my Wii for internet, LOL. I'm still waiting on getting a responce from my laptop's company since I'm on warranty. I figure they should send me a cord for free, after all, it's a fire hazard.

Let's see, recently I did get my haircut. Here are the results~




As you can see, I'm wearing my bunny jacket/hoodie that I got recently! It's so soft and fluffy, though it's a bit small on me. I love it though!

Me and my dad went shopping at ROSS's the other day, since it just recently opened in our city. I've never been inside one before, but I knew they offered brand name clothing/shoes/furniture/etc. at a discounted price.  I found these adorable Dolce Vita booties there, and I had to have them. Unfortunately I didn't have my money on me, but my dad offered to get them as part of my gift for my upcoming birthday. The deal was amazing! The DV booties were apparently $118 list price, but we got them at a whopping discount for $17

Here they are in a company stock photo:

I love them, they're adorable and I think I'll switch to wearing them in the spring when it's less snowy out. For now I'll stick to my heavier fluffy boots~

On another note, me and my aunt might be starting a floral business together! It would be so awesome if it took off. Here is some of our work so far:







  Wish us luck!

Camera

Hurray! I'll be getting a new camera soon. My old digital camera that I got for Christmas in 2006 finally bit the dust a few months back, and my phone's microSD card can be quite erratic (need to get a new one! ), and well...it's a phone camera so it's not the best. That leaves me with my webcam which has uber crappy quality!

Anyway, here's a picture:

The camera is a new Kodak 5350 in salmon. It was on sale BIG time! It was only $54 down from about $140. It's got super good ratings online and everything, so I'm quite happy. It's a 16mp camera and it comes with a case, charger, battery, and a 4gb sd card~ I would've preferred a slightly more pinkish color, but I'm fine with salmon. It looks almost like a nice, dusty rose color! I haven't decided on whether or not I'll deck this camera out all decoden like, lol. We'll see. In any case, it should be here by the 31st. I'll finally be able to take good pics of my new haircut (I got it cut, yay!), outfits, etc~
