While I was up writing a a final paper, and a mini response paper to Nietzsche, I logged in to WordPress for a second…to see this pop up. I wrote more about this HERE. But if you don’t check it out, and you see this, I want to thank you too :)

The earlier part of the week wasn’t all that lovely. Gloomy really. But one day while on the MiWay bus back to Etobicoke, I looked up and craved cotton candy. Yum.

I received one of my 3 issues from SampleSource. It is for Canadian Living, which I had a subscription to a few years back. I actually really enjoyed it then because it wasn’t overflowing with ads. Plus they always have these recipes that I love. And this months was no exception. I LOVE Butter Tarts. When I go to Mandarin, I always eat a bunch (totally regret all the fat I am eating…but can’t help it). However I love Butter Tarts WITHOUT raisins. I will go out of my way usually, especially if they are rather large, to spit them out. Luckily this recipe allows me to omit them as I wish :)

Recently, I have been a tad worried I might be diabetic. I shouldn’t be worried, but I mean with all the sweets I do eat…I should. So I have made an attempt to do exercise regularly (not just when I am pissed off), and to add more vegetables in to my day. One way for me to do that is to dump things in to a smoothie and gulp the thing down. I have Rasberry, Blueberry, Spinach, Tofu, and then decided to add some Black Sesame. Omg the black sesame was a huge mistake. It was the reason why I ended up gulping it down without breathing. It was too -___-

Apparently it is a Mclaren. We were all trying to figure out what it was, then this grade 12 student stands up, and goes, “It’s a Mclaren Model blah blah blah..” I miss the days I used to know what model cars were…haha or not. I had a highschool friend who was OBSESSED with cars. While driving down the road he would always point out the models and year… -_____- He used to beg me to go to auto shows with him as well.

I participated in Loreal’s Color Genius giveaway that they hosted on Twitter. Unfortunately the giveaway is done, and I was the last pool to win the new line. However they are available in stores now, so you can find them :)

On Sunday, I headed to Dlish Queen St to pick up movie passes that I had won through Twitter, and also received a gift of two of their cupcakes. The day I posted this…I only had half the red velvet left. And that was me showing restraint. Otherwise I would have devoured them on the way home that Sunday lol

About a month back, I had the opportunity to check out the Montagne Jeunesse event hosted by Farley Co (which I mentioned HERE). I figured that my skin had been acting out a bit, so I slapped on a masque that I received in my swag bag. I figured that if I’d take a picture for Instagram, I should at the very least make my lips pretty lol

A new Holo polish that I have added to my collection. It is the Nabi 3D Rainbow Effect in Ocean Blue. You can see more pictures HERE.

Made a detour at Ardene at the Mississauga (Dundas and Dixie Location), for socks. I had worn ankle socks that day, but they kept sliding down my heel. I ended up picking up a BUNCH of tights and knee high socks for $10, as they had a 10/$10 promo for some items (tights, socks, some accessories). There was also 5/$10 (flipflops), 3/$10 (like bags, shoes), and 70% off clothing. If you are near the Orfus road location, the clothes would be cheaper there, as they are running a 80% off the whole store promo. If you want accessories, then the Mississauga one is best, but there isn’t much in terms of rings or other accessories.

I met up with Watercoloursky and Babybubblz for food and chat time. Tried out Crepe it Up for the first time. Not too bad at all~ Plus it satisfied my cravings to have crepe :) As a side note, if you DL the Yelp.ca App to your phone, you get 15% off when you check in~

Was at Kitchen Stuff Plus, and saw these guys. They made me laugh as they are so…ridiculous? Yet handy for a lot of people.

One of my students celebrated a birthday today. The student had to come in for exam prep on their birthday. Hard times! To cheer up the day, the student brought in cupcakes for the tutors :) So sweet xD

I went to Coxwell to meet up with a friend after her work, so we could have dinner together. I walked by this and thought it looked lovely. I believe it was an installation from last year? Anyway looked cool, right? :)

I went to the Lahore Tikka House, which is basically our place to go after grabbing Pani Puri from one of the other stores on the street. I probably go almost once a month. One thing I usually love about going here are the male workers. They are extremely nice, and this day was no exception. As the weather is warmer, the outdoor seating area was finally open. My friend and I decided to sit there. From that side, you can see in to the Tandoor clay ovens, and see the Naan being made. Basically it is a spherical hollow in this oven. The Naan dough is flattened, and than placed on the rounded pad. A little water it patted on to the dough, and then slapped on to the clay of the oven. From there, the Naan puffs up, as the dough gets cooked from the bottom up. The Naan is extracted using long metal rods, so that the individual is not burnt by the fire. Basically a super cool thing to watch! One of the workers, Mohamed, saw me watching him, and invited me over to watch him make the Naan. Was quite the experience really! I was curious for awhile now, and this was the first time I had seen it happen.

Just a very short clip I took of it. You can see that the Naan is peeling away on the left side. They apply a little more water and press it back.

Walking up the stairs at TTC Islington Station

A little while back, TheBalm released new Instain Blushes. Argyle, Swiss Dot, Toile, Lace, Houndstooth, and Pinstripe. They are $22US/$28CAN. A tad expensive, but they are really pretty. You can see more pictures on Google Images.

I finally got to try out soak of gel’s on my friend J. I used Sensational gel’s that I got on clearance. I seem to be having troubles curing them, but think I got it down now (it is very important that you cure properly, so that you don’t have a reaction to it).

Last week on Instagram…

Good Morning Everyone~
I hope that you all had a lovely weekend, and ready to tackle the last few days of May!

Well I don’t have much to share today for this post…but here are my Instagram pictures. I blame the fact that I ate my nearly all my data by 3 weeks…

I had a midterm, so I went to Starbucks to study. I may have been prompted by the fact that they have this weird drink dash thing going on right now. Get 10 stars and get $5 back lol Anyway I wore a bright pink that day, and it got all over the cup…

I was waiting at the TTC Passenger Pickup for my mother to finish her workout. Seeing as she was very late, I had some fun checking out the interesting clouds, and thought this would be a nice shot. Processed with Photowonder

I had some time to kill between my tutoring, so I wondered to SDM. I like going just for the clearance section…and lo and behold…BAM! Got these babies for $2 each. There wasn’t much left actually, just a few more of the Smudge Paint. I know I am not supposed to buy, so I got one for myself, and two for my friend.

I’ll finish off with a soon to be released blush from Annabelle. It is LE and will show up in stores in June. Just looking at Fresh Pink makes me want it NOW! I mean I love gradients, and just the look of it…love the mix of colours~ Can’t wait to swatch it in store (hope there are testers *fingers crossed*)

“A little tan? A lot of tan? You don’t have to decide and let our five-tone bronzer work its magic.

Multi-Blush Palette in Fresh Pink
