Videos that will make you laugh & opportunities.

I've been wanting to make sure that this blog remains professional, but I realized it may be a tad boring at times to read. I enjoy reading other bloggers' mini updates on their lives too, so that will be one of my goals, including little tidbits of my personal life. Pictures will definitely help too, too many words makes me scan instead of reading the content fully.

Before heading too bed, I found Ellen Degeneris' series of singing in the bathroom w/different celebrities such as Jennifer Hudson, John Mayer, Katy Perry, Fallout Boy, etc.. Below are two of my favorite because they simply show how much they had fun together singing. 
I really love this one, it made me laughed a lot! [especially when she sang the high notes!]


John Mayer is so cute singing the high notes & dancing.



Does Barack Obama not have some moves?! Sure dances better than I can :) A man who can dance is a hot man.



I always love to hear inspiring stories about how people succeed in their lives and careers.  Paris By Night 99 (if you are not familiar with it, it is a Vietnamese Musical Show) entitled "I am Vietnamese" featured some very prominent Vietnamese people who have succeeded in achieving their AMERICAN DREAMS.  They  are proud.of the fact that they are Vietnamese.  I am very proud to be VIETNAMESE  because no matter where we may live and how much success we have, our roots will always run within us.  I remember during the introduction, one man distinctly in his next life time, let him be Vietnamese again.  Many of them did not have anything when they first arrived in the United States nor did they know much English, yet they achieved their dreams with their bare hands. Our hands are in our future, if opportunities are not given to us, we create them (not the type of opportunities where we step over others to have).  Look at how much the people in your family have achieved given what they had.

 Each day, I am more grateful to be in this land filled with opportunities.  My nephew who is currently in Vietnam said that we can bring him to the United States and he can wash cars for a living.  If you work hard, you will succeed, it's almost a gaurantee.  I have been thinking that my mom  is my biggest compettion, if she came to the United States the same time as I did, in 1994, at the age of 8.5 years old, she would have accomplished a lot more than I have.  She is utterly one of the most motivated and determined person I have ever met in my life.  She had gone through so many challenges in her life, ever since she was a child, and there is nothing that will break her. Our mothers are a big part of who we are.




My goal, my aims, for the rest of April is to create opportunities.  If they are given, take them, and if they are not, create them because for sure perseverance and hard work will get people "somewhere," and they will do the same for us.

I also told my friend I will keep track of how many suprises there are and will be in my life, so I can't wait for them. :p

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 ...

Can a $2 castor oil product make your eyelashes grow?! Or is it a magical "potion?"

Has anyone heard of CASTOR OIL? ( bottle on the right) I came across this product when I searched on YouTube for ways to help eyelashes grow other than the vaseline I was trying, (well, I didn't want to spend $40 on Rapidlash). I had another YTuber who was using castor oil + olive oil  to enhance her lash growth and thought, why not try it?!    I tried it for a couple weeks but it didn't really make an impact on me. But now, I have returned! and is trying just Castor Oil only this time =) However, I'm doing a mini eyelashes experiment to compare the growth between Castor oil ( will be apply to the right eye) and Sweet Almond Oil (left eye) for 1 month.  Read below to see the benefits of this versatile oil and if my eyelashes even grew between the 2. What is CASTOR OIL? According to Skinverse , Castor Oil is extracted from the seeds of the castor oil (ricinus communis), its color is pale yellow and rather transparent, sort of just like olive oil. It doesn't r...

First Goodbye

  This specific day I said goodbye to something, the first of its kind in my life.It is difficult to let go when something has become part of your life and you will not be the same after it is gone.  I will do my best to focus on other things in my life and getting things done.  I don't regret it though, I'm grateful because we are not rocks nor stones that are untouchable and life brings us events and people to change our lives. Thank you for everything you have given me I now have a thing for rings and earrings, long earrings. The one above is my favorite (Charlotte Russe), it reminds me of mango leaves for some reason and  that leads to the book The House on Mango Street that I will read by the end of this year. Have you ever been in an experience where you never want to be in ever again? I never want to be so cold again, therefore, I always wear a small camsole (is that right?) inside all of my shirts.  I think i'm kind of into lacey clothing items. ...
