Busy Little Bee!

Alright it's me again haha go figure!  Sorry the posts didn't go up for some reason the schedule posts wants to work with my blog when it feels like it.  I'm sure having an internet card from Cricket Wireless for my computer doesn't help because the speed also depends on it's mood.  Maybe it's because my poor laptop died on it so my trooper of a desktop is the one running the show now.  Going to save up for a MacBook Pro as soon as other bills and recovering from moving costs and what not settle down as well.

I will be testing out scheduled posting with my Windows Live Writer and see if that's more cooperative especially since I can go to town writing posts offline and just hop online long enough so it'll sync up all the scheduled posts.  Crossing fingers on that.  Especially since over the next two weeks when i'm actually moving and starting my new job *^_^ I probably won't be on much, not that i'm regular as is, again truly sorry on that!  Trust me once things settle not only will I be holding my contest, i'll post on a daily basis, and there's lots of reviews I have to share from hauls and wins yay!

I'm uber stoked that a ton of my favorite tv shows are back on for a new season or will be very shortly such a dork I know but hey it's entertainment.  I was watching the Rachel Zoe Project earlier tonight and man I wish I had her job or worked with her.  Granted I know it's like no life, consistent stress, and mayhem but oh do I live for Fashion and all the aspects it incorporates!  DVF, Chanel, D&G, Marchesa, and so much more are amazing designers that I wish we could all afford to rock more often in our lifetime than most of us can dream of.  There was a dress from Marchesa that Miley Cyrus wore to the 2009 Golden Globes that I just adore:

There's one young celeb who's taste and style I just love both on and off screen, Hilary Duff.  The adorable flower like red dress in "The Perfect Man" and who can forget the insanely beautiful white corset prom dress in "A Cinderella Story" great stuff!

I think that's definitely one thing I would just love about being in the public eye getting dolled up and being able to wear some amazing clothes from incredible designers.  I mean would any of you ladies or gents turn down a day, night, or life of being dolled up, especially while doing something you love?

A show I actually miss seeing is Blow Out, Jonathan Antin's reality show about his business and life.  His sister Robin Antin is the owner and founder of The Pussycat Dolls empire, she's got a crazy awesome energy and such a sweetheart in person.  The dolls are a handful of ladies that make strutting around in crazy stilettos like it ain't no thing but a chicken wing, makes me really consider slipping on a pair of 4 1/2 inch or more heels and doing one of those work out in your pumps/stilettos.  Perhaps later :D

Speaking of shoooooes I came across the Shades of Gray article at In Style's blog and saw these adorable MICHAEL Kincade Slouch Gray Boot from Michael Kors:

I have got to say I am just excited for Fall and Winter not just because of the cooler temps but so I can bust out the cute layers and boots!  Well it's almost 3am now and I need to do some more packing and cleaning before I hit the sack and get a head start on tomorrow's tasks ahhh!  Have a great one!

Checking In...

Sorry haven't blogged much lately on top of trying to pack, prep for moving, and getting ready to start a new job next month things have been kind of crazy never the less.  To make things more difficult or should I say insane haha my poor laptop died and I temporarily had already put my Cox service on vacation/hold to not only help save some money but I find that it's easier to move when you do so.  At least for me I find that they connect it faster that way to a new place.  So for the time being I had just reactivated my wireless usb modem from my cell carrier for internet access.  Which isn't the fastest in the world and almost nearly impossible for me to watch YouTube videos and all but hey it's something right?

But the good thing is i'm nearly done packing just have to wait for the papers to be finalized and the checks to be deposited after and i'll have the keys to the new place yay!!  So over the next several days i'll go ahead and blog as much as I can and schedule the posts so that during the day when i'm getting things done and sometimes at night when the modem decides to be faster i'll have posts up for you guys.  New beginnings i'm so excited can't wait!

Oh and first case of business i've not only decided to start a pan project but i'm going to do some smart shopping and budgeting with maybe a treat every other month or every so often.  Reason being?  Well not just because trying to recover from feeling the recession but as a good long term investment i'm going to finally save up for not a PC but going to get me a MacBook Pro.  I would love the 17 inch but if anything the 15 inch is a great buy.  I know it's a difference of about $1100 but if you look at the specs you also get your money's worth.  Though i'd love to hear from any and all who have MacBook Pros which model do you?  Satisfied with yours?  Think the difference in price is worth getting the better?

Great Week...

Just wanted to have an update post on my life.  I've been packing and cleaning my current place like crazy being i've been looking for a new place and new job.  Well one of the two so far has given me fab news!  Found out almost 2 days ago that the place I was really hoping for came through!  YAY haha it'll be so convenient for me hopefully getting the new job I have a good feeling about.  Plus it's in a great neighborhood, closer to family and some friends, and down the street from Jamba Juice!  Haha right now the scheduled move in date is the first week of September but I hope to move in sooner if possible.

The job sounds like it's going on a great path too.  I was able to gather a good amount of references and they all responded so fast to the HR dept THANKS a bunches you guys!  I can't thank you enough for being so great and helping support me through this... really to everyone!  Just waiting for some paperwork to be cleared and we'll see :) should be any day now.

MAJOR news on a upcoming West Coast Tour for my cousin-in-law [really brotha from another motha haha] David Muñoz, congrats to him so proud of you!  Check him out at www.DavidMunozMusic.com woot woot LOL.  Dano Artist Management which is run by his wife my close cousin, Tanya Dano Munoz, is another amazing one she's made so much amazing accomplishments and I really look up to her and respect her for it all, especially just being who she is.  Tanya and Dave you both are truly my uber Rockstars!

Well busy morning and even busier day ahead off I go again until the next blog ciao!

Fun Old Looks

I was editing some pictures for I had uploaded and came across these two looks I did back around April I think.  I don't really remember everything I used except that the shadows were all from my 120 Manly Blusher Palette from eBay and the mascara was Maybelline's XXL in Intense Volum + Length.  Both looks were inspired by YouTube gurus like xsparkagex and all that Allthatglitters21 amongst others who did Horoscope look series and like Disney inspired themes.  Hope you like it just thought it'd post it up and share.
