Lately...I've been going ga-ga over Givenchy. From the auburn lipstick to their chain necklaces, I've seriously become entranced. I think I've found a new favorite designer :O
-red cardigan, Target
-System of a Down band tee, Hot Topic gift from Greek Oracle (I cut the collar off because it was hella ugly)
-black skirt, Ann Taylor (I pulled it up to make it a mini skirt =3 how convenient)
-plum-colored stockings, Gap
-gold flats, TargetNote: I'm getting tired of flats...I mean, my gold ones are very comfortable and can go with practically any outfit, but it really lacks "oomph" most of the time. I totally imagine this outfit would be full of win if I had those Nine West Sulliban sandals (<3!)
-bowtie neckalce, gift from Bagel
-gold cross, Symone's Reconciliation gift :P
-Pirates of the Carribean skull, Disneyland
-tear drop necklace, Forever 21 (I think...)
-stud cuff
-wooden bead bracelet, DIY
-Our Lady of Guadalupe bracelet, some random Catholic churchNotes: I've been really feelin' the stud cuff lately. Before, I thought it was a real juvenile thing to wear...but I actually think it's a nice addition to a girly outfit if worn not so...kiddish-ly? I can't even think of the right word, but I've been wearing my cuff a lot lately (even to work).
Notes: Crappy picture...but with red lips! I've been more open to lipstick lately, thanks to my mom =3 Oh yeah, and sporting the glasses (which I never do, much to Dii's dismay). I really do like these frames, but I'd like a change since I've had them for a couple of years (all of high school for sure.) But...even though I'll get new frames, I'll probably still put new prescriptions in these haha.
My bag from my Ninong that I got a couple Christmas' ago...I don't know why I never liked it until now :D It used to have all of these beads attached to the bottom, but I cut them off, tied the end and made a bracelet out of the beads! (see picture above!)
What I carry in my bag...Woah, I just noticed that my phone's not in this picture. :P
-Wet Ones hand wipes (you can never be too clean!)
-Hello Kitty wallet (I really want a new hinge wallet...)
-planner that I can't live without and Dii wants to burn to pieces
-white DS and Poke'mon Emerald game (remember...this is still the purse of a gamer :D)
-Cherry Blossom hand lotion (my hands get dry so easily...)
-Lip Boxom by Benefit=love (I really like the tingly feeling I get right after I put it on ^_^)
-crap load of quarters that just get thrown in my bag
Oh, and next Friday I'm getting my haircut before the Breaking Dawn party and the BISF Tourney...
Uhhh. Yeah. I'm going Victoria Beckham =3

I am dying to have the Nine West shoes...Not only are they on sale, but they'd look sooooo oishii with skinny jeans. I'm tired of flats...UGH. Normally I'm not really for the gladiator-ish style, but these are just...something else. Everything in the outfit above, aside from the shoes, are things that I'd like to have, but I don't care much for.
I would also really like some leopard print tights and a faux leather jacket. Le sigh... I know that I want those things, but I can't seem to find the style that I really want. Oh! And I finally found my ankle boots! YAY! I'll take a picture of those later...
CUTIE-KUN can't end a post without it being nerdy so...
My Poke'mon Emerald game is pissing me the fuck off! I can't find this goddamn Nosepass in the Granite Cave! ARG!
I want to catch them all (hahaha)...so I can't give up!
I...need...to...shop...GAHHHHHHH! I CAN'T STAND IT ANYMORE!!!!!!!!!
*calls Greek Oracle*
I took these pictures two days ago, and I can't be lazy anymore...here are my lovely and growing bento supplies:
I don't think I could get anymore Asian XD. Bagel, ML and Gao stared at me in utter pitty as I squealed while shopping for my new bento supplies. Le sigh...I can't wait to make lunches for my sister when school starts, hahaha! OH! And I can't wait to make Dii a bento using my new bunmy egg mold (first picture). I'm sure he'd like that, due to his obsession with bunnies...
My man's manlier than yours O_O
I wish I had batteries for my camera...I want to take a picture of my outfit and all of the cute bento stuff I got today at Japantown ^_^
I guess I'll describe these things as best as I can...as lame as it is.
My outfit today:
black fedora, Lids $20
cargo pants, Target $20
plain light blue tank, Old Navy
black vest with wavy trimming, DIY (originally a cropped jacket from Target...I just cut the sleeves off =3)
skull necklace, Disneyland (Pirates of the Caribbean!)
gold tear drop necklace, Forever 21
bow necklace, gift from friend
brown beaded bracelet, DIY (cut off breads from my Stamp 10 bag)
Chinese charm bracelet, Pampanga, Philippines
Our Lady of Guadalupe bracelet, random church
Stamp 10 bag, gift from uncle
I wore a lot more jewelry than usual...I guess it's an inspiration by Lulu (gah! love her!) To be honest...she's really been influencing the way I dress lately. Actually, just the chictopians of Chictopia in general. (Thanks a lot Tea-chan for getting me obsessed with that website! >:[ ) I've been wearing my tights a lot more, craving for some oxfords (actually I always have been thanks to Hanadan), tucking in my shirts more and being more accepting of loose clothes. I can't understand why I've always worn my clothes so tight now...I honestly want to raid a man's closet :X No joke. I am seriously lusting over Lulu's Marni heels and a beige colored fedora. Le sigh...Thank goodness I have a job now. XD
Okay! So as for bento, I bought two more pink straps, silicon-heart shaped containers, food sticks and egg molds. I definitely need to take a picture of my new egg molds! I got a bear, bunny, car and fish. I honestly think the fish is the cutest, but Dii is (of course) very partial towards the bunny XD I can't wait to use them!
Didn't really Smash today. Got raped by Dii. Of course. Fuck his agro-Marth and his fucking chain grabs and fairs...UGH! Ah well...I'm still omghellamuthafukkin' in love with him<3
GOOD ASS BATTLE RIGHHURRR.
College orientation was awesome. I seriously didn't want to leave. Despite the 116* F weather (for serious UGH), it was well worth it.
Day 1: After my uncle dropped me off, I lined up to register, get my ID card and all of that fun stuff. It was interesting to see how diverse my classmates looked, and I'm not just talking about ethnicity (although I must say, I've never been at a school with so many Asians like moi :X). I saw before me a myriad of stereotypes (nerds, hollicrombie zombies, etc.) and was excited to see that. I was kind of expecting to be with a whole bunch of nerdy kids, but that's not the case ^_^ (BTW, I saw this Asian chick with the CUTEST Marc Jacobs bag. *envy*) After settling in, I met my roommates, learned the Aggie fight song and met my first friend. My new friend and I decided to get lunch together, where we ran into two more of my new friends. It was cool that while I was making friends and introducing myself like crazy, I had my own little group to hang out with the rest of orientation. Later that night, we had a night to spend at the gym. I got a henna tat with my name in cursive, played dogdeball and boulder climbed the rockwall. Oh my goodness...boulder climbing is scary...I knew the mat was under me to catch me when I fall, but I still couldn't go very high without freaking out.
Day 2: Had all of my meals with my new group of friends. To survive the upcoming six hour lecture after lunch, we gathered a whole bunch of cookies, oranges and rice krispies. During the lecture, we made fake joints and threw it at each other. We're ftw, I know. That night, there was a random function going on with bowling, pool, poker, video game tourneys and arcade games. If you've gone through this blog before, I'm pretty sure you can guess where CUTIE natrually gravitated to. DUH! Brawl friendlies! I didn't meet any serious smashers for Brawl, but I met one smasher who used to play Melee competitively. It was awesome to chat with him. (Never got his gamertag...but his name was Joseph. He mained Falco :X) So that night...despite meticulously working on my schedule, I stayed up until 2:30 in the morning to finish that shit. UGH. I really hope I'll get sleep in college. T_T
Day 3: Last day of Orientation...le sigh...It was fun while it lasted. I signed up for my classes and checked out of my dorm room. I'm really happy with my classes! I placed into Honors Calculus and Chemistry due to my placement exam scores that I studied my butt of for, but I decided to opt out of the honors courses for now. See, freshman usually take 13 units their first quarter. I'm taking 16.5.
...
UGH. My adviser told me that if I want to double major in Japanese and Biochemistry AND travel abroad to Japan, I can't "do any classes for fun." I have to stick to a tight schedule of just my necessary courses and GE. Ah well. I enjoy both of my majors, so I don't mind too much. Anyways, I signed up for calculus, chemistry, remedial English and astronomy. Kind of pissed off about the remedial English class. I know that I don't belong there, but my high school counselors didn't tell me to take some writing test I needed to do in May. Now I have to wait until the start of school to take it. If I pass, then I get to drop the remedial English course and take the regular one--no big. I looked up all of my professors at ratemyprofessors.com and they seem ligit. YAY!
SO EXCITED TO START COLLEGE. I love the school spirit, my classmates, the beautiful campus...AHHHHH I didn't want to leave!
I got a fucking 4 on the AP Calculus AB exam. I'm SOOOO happy! :D All that hard work and calculus club lunches really paid off! Best of all, I may be exempted from my math placement exam on Thursday.
Honors Calculus at Davis--here I come! :D (Now hopefully I can say the same for chemistry...)

Amongst these dates, I want to go shopping with Greek Oracle. I can't believe she told me that there's a Betsey Johnson boutique at Westfield in the city...I'm totally going to go broke nao...
In general, my summer will consist of this:
work + studying + Smash
Yeeeeeeee.
