Napa Valley, California with my friends


I wanted to share w/you some pictures from a recent Napa Valley trip with some of my wonderful friends from Southern California. Although I do live up North and had chances to go to Napa this past year, this was my first time and I tell you, it was so BEAUTIFUL!

 
 The rain made it incredibly cold at times but seeing some of my friends I haven't seen since I moved from LA was really awesome because it felt like old times. As we drove through the valley, most of the grape vines were bright yellow and had turned colors already but the views were gorgeous!



 

We headed to the Castle and tasted 5 wines of our choice + our own tours for $16 per person. I'm not too much of a wine person and I tried tasting the ones that sound familiar. After the 4th one, I was lightheaded already =( Overall, the wine tasting was fun and we all enjoyed them

 


What was even more special was that we even squeeze in 5 or 6 games of mafia! =) Although I'm not a great mafia player because it is always very difficult to figure out who the mafias are, the savior, cop, or even random killers, but I love to play it because it always bring people together.

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 ...

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. ...

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.
