2 side projects I'm working on


I stayed up all night and I finally finished a new project I'm working on. Can you guess? If I had to guess, I wouldn't have guess it right because I have no fashion sense really. More than ever, I want to dress in "pretty" clothes, clothes that are different than what I'm used to, clothes shows my personality, I just want to step outside of my usual self and challenge who I think I am.

Small Pockets is a small shop I created that offer tops and accessories (in the future) at affordable prices from pieces that I personally choose. I'll be my own stylist, I'm not sure how it'll do, but why not right? Changing and "growing up" and developing a better sense of who you are is good, stagnant is not good.



Behind the scenes of my "creativity" for this shoot... Pins and tape are extremely useful.










Nước Mắm for the Soul  is another project I've been working on for my Vietnamese community, but it's not anything yet, just ideas and barely starting it. I'm afraid of criticism since it doesn't involve just me and I'm afraid that people will misunderstand it, but we will see. Hence, why it's been developed so slowly....


I'm off to sleep and then to work.  There was another project but I've done a horrible job at it, I will fix it next week. These projects have helped me learn a little more about HTML coding (well copy and paste anyways) and just challenging myself on ideas that run around my head...Life is short, I should always try.


In terms of beauty, I recently purchased the Walgreens Alpha Hydroxy Acid Cream  that is supposedly for improvement in texture of skin, pores, and resurfacing the skin. I'll let you know how that goes after I finish it.


I can't wait for Sunday! This sleeping schedule is so bad for my health and skin...

Review: Maybelline's Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner

Maybelline's Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner   in  Blackest Black  is very creamy and super gentle when applied to the lids, not to mention the brush is definitely a great add in as well. I remember when I first bought the L'oreal Hip Gel Eyeliner, the tiny brush that came with it was super stiff and horrible, but this brush is more flexible and it can be use to fling your winged eyeliners and such.  Would I repurchase this product again?  Yes, I really want to   eggplant .  In terms of staying power, I have really oily lids, so when I had this on the other day, it lasted a lot longer than I thought (although I don't remember how many hours, definitely not 24 though because I could tell part of the liner was fading).  I'm sure if you apply an eye primer base or your concealer, it would last a very long time.    I took this picture right after I bought the product because I was so excited to try it since it had ...

Create a relationship that encourages openness

Is it easier to be consumed in the life I want to live and and not pay attention to the life I have, especially to those who are most close to me. The balance between the external and internal worlds we balance and manage on a daily basis can overshadow how life moves swiftly and quickly through the lives of our loved ones. If I could go back a few years ago or 10 years ago, I would wish I'd take more time to be myself and to build a relationship of openness and encouragement. It's crazy how we can share our deepest fears and our entire worlds with friends, yet, within our own family, we are so afraid to share those secrets. Share your secrets and fears with your family, regardless of the situation, they will be there for you.

It's been x days of running

This was me roughly 3 weeks ago when I first embarked on my journey to run everyday for 100 days. Before this project, it was difficult for me to complete a 1 mile run or jog, without huffing and puffing, but after 3 weeks, I can make it to 1 mile without wanting to give up. I used to be quite jealous of people who sweat a lot at the gym because I did not have the perseverance to run to the point where I would sweat, I just gave up too easily. People say if you fully commit yourself to something for 100 days, you'll blown yourself away, you might even be really good at it. To be honest, I have not run everyday since I have started, but I have done the best I can within the last 3 weeks. I should be up to 5 miles/run now, but this is the breaking point. I've jogged up to 4 miles (with a walking break after every mile), but my mentality hasn't been there recently. I run at our local community center and I would watch The Big Bang Theory  or Modern Family  as...
