Special Birthday Surprise

My birthday fell on a Saturday this year, which is awesome because chances are I'll have a final exam when it falls on a weekday. U__U So this time I got to sleep in and bum it out all morning! As it got late, I started getting ready because Take-chan told me we were going to have dinner at a nice restaurant. ♥ Then lo and behold, I walked in and realized that it wasn't going to be just the two of us. All of my family and friends were there! It was such a lovely surprise. ^__^


Tried a different combo of lashes that night. Inspired by the make-up in Happie Nuts! ♥


Went to Lazy Dog with Take-chan and some of my co-workers afterwards.
On a side note, I'm leaving for Japan in exactly a week! I'm really excited because I'll get to experience New Year's with Take-chan and his family. I'll also be there in time for the big sales at Shibuya 109! Hopefully I can snag a few fukubukuro. ^__^

Free!!!

Finally done with this crazy semester! T__T I don't think I've ever studied so hard and so consistently ever in my life, and it's not going to get any easier. Once this winter break is over, I won't have anymore breaks until I finish the MLT program. I'll be doing clinicals and taking a class or two over the summer, and I'll probably be doing my last clinical during winter break of next year. U__U

So anyways... This past Thanksgiving, I went with my family up to San Francisco to spend it with our relatives. While we were there, I got to do a photoshoot! Here are some of my favorite shots:








It might not look like it, but I was freezing my butt off! And it just so happened to be reeeally windy that day. My eyes were even tearing up at one point because I was trying to keep them open for each shot. U__U Anywho, thank you so much to my uncle for taking the photos! :D
