I'm so frustrated right now. Maybe it's the heat, who knows! Well it's a few other things too. Like my school grant saying I owe $677 after my next class (I thought I was covered for the year. I guess it's not as bad as my friend who owes over $2000), figuring out how to box everything up for my move... I have no idea how I'm going to take my makeup with me! I know I can't bring boxes with me and I'm not sure if I can carry my palettes as carry on and my nail polishes and argh! Getting all the paperwork done (I hate paperwork), and of course, being broke always sucks. I know, I need to get that blog sale up, especially since now I know there's a lot of stuff I can't bring with me :(. There's some MAC stuff I know I should let go but it's always hard to let go of MAC stuff *sigh.

So when I changed the name of my blog, I wanted to point it in another direction. I'm horrible at reviewing makeup (speaking of, I picked up some new ELF stuff to try out, I've been so out of the makeup loop and besides, their mineral brushes were very tempting) and I wanted somewhere where I could review other things too... like electronics, everyday stuff, stuff people don't really think about reviewing, games, books (even though I have a totally seperate blog for that), you get the idea.

With that said, I'll be comparing the Nook and the Kindle. Eventually, lol.

I really want to go come back and blog here, but so many things are getting in the way. I'm going to get my ELF haul up soon, I can't wait to try some of the new stuff out!

Hello!

So... school's still kicking my ass and I'm on the search for a job. I have so many plans lined up for next year that I don't know what to do first! Then there's my blogs, they've been suffering while school has been taking up all of my time.

I haven't had much time to play with makeup in the last few months, but I do hope to make an order on ELF for some of their new products that I'm curious about. I also heard they came out with brushes for the mineral line! I'm super excited about this because they have bamboo handles! I know, silly reason to be excited right? I don't know, I really like brushes with bamboo handles (like EcoTools). Plus I want to compare their mineral brushes to their studio brushes, they look a bit different as far as fluffy-ness and stuff. 

I'm sure everyone and their mama has heard of LUUUX. And if you haven't.... it's a site that works a little like SwagBucks. You do things around the site and earn points and those points can be redeemed for prizes. Unlike SwagBucks, on LUUUX, you redeem them for beauty and fashion related prizes. You can also get a iPad and a MacBook. I think it's pretty neat, it's just earning that many points that seems impossible! I'm still trying to get the hang of the site. 

Other than all that, I've also been book blogging, which was successful... up until school started kicking my ass. Now I don't have much time to read, which sucks. But I'm trying to make everything fit into the week. 

I'm also currently doing some research for a huge change I'm making for next year. I haven't decided how to tell my parents yet, but I think this will be good for me. If I can just make it there, then everything will be okay. If that made sense.

How are all of you? How was your summer?
