Awesome, right? I love Kerestase, since it's the only product that seems to tame my wild frizzy hair, so I'm crossing my fingers. :D

This is my entry for BabyJap and Herroyalbleakness' Adopt a BB Cream Contest. :D

The reason I would like to adopt the BB cream is because I don't have any at all; I'm a total noob when it comes to makeup (just starting my collection). I would like to stop being a doofus about these things, and get educated in the ways of BB creams and makeup in general; I think adopting the Missha BB cream would be a great way to get me started. :)

1. Bright-colored cardigans (but no neons, please! XD)
2. Preppy, Blair Waldorfy accessories (pretty things with pearls/bows/lace?)
3. Tigbts in royal blue, magenta, gray, brown, argyle, or black with patterns.
4. "Murder in the Dark," Margaret Atwood (I don't mind secondhand books!)
5. "Paper Towns," John Green
6. A good mascara (not liquid or cream, please! I don't know how to use them. ._. )
7. A cute, businessy/casual vest
8. Honey and shea body wash/lotion from Burt's Bees
9. Bright-colored tank tops (though gray/royal blue would be greatly appreciated as well! XD)


Of course, I'd just as readily accept love/hugs/fics/art/mixes. :D This is only for formalities/friends who're asking.

My first wallpaper, and it's not even all me. orz It's really just one of the promo pictures that I just fiddled around with on GIMP due to my inability to do much else. XD

Series is The Big Bang Theory, and needs more love all around. 

( It's hot in here, must be Summer! )

Yesterday, I got my first pair of prescription glasses, and put them on in the supermarket.

For a long time, my eyes were giving me problems with reading and concentration; headaches were common, too. Naturally, I stubbornly refused to see an ophthalmologist, thinking that my eyes couldn't possibly be, well, broken. Though upon ryvaeus' insistence, I went to see his eye doctor. TL;DR: curious eye condition, wearing glasses necessary. Lasik in the future...?

Wearing glasses in the supermarket--already colorful to begin with--surprised me. I forgot how sharp and vibrant the world was. Having a pair of new eyes was so refreshing, it was like having a constant rainbow in my face. Or a DSLR/printer commercial. Or a team of graphic designers 'shopping every background, every image, every detail. It was fucking Candyland.

I was initially apprehensive about wearing specs. Mostly because the glasses-wearing people in my family kept reminding me how inconvenient they were. Now... I don't mind so much. My glasses are awesome, and JP thinks they're moe full of geeky pink love. ♥

Uh. Yeah. Maybe Chuck Syjuco will never, never, never come across this. But if he did and didn't sue my pants off, maybe it would make for a good story. Just maybe.

I *really* want to read Ilustrado now.

First one, discovered. Second had too much baggage. Time to start afresh.
