Summer Agenda #2-4 INCOMPLETE

  • Buy swimsuit & wear it to the beach
 So beach body was a no-go this summer as it was the last. Maybe I should buy a swimsuit (after all, summer is over which means endless sales!) and use it as motivation? I promised Boyfriend I'd go one day, but food baby and baby weight are sticking around a lot longer then I thought they would :<
  • Pass summer session classes with flying colors 
Mmm..yeahno.
  • Waikiki shopping spree
 Wanted so badly, but no time or monies ;___; BUUU

But overall, this was the best summer as of yet! ^__^ Dari grew so much within the past 3 months..he became more adventurous and started taking steps which is early for his age (sorry, proud parent speaking..MUST GLOAT)! He started babbling too and I can't get enough of hearing his voice! SO ADORABLE. I also got to spend some much needed time with Boyfriend, but now that he has new job & I have school, we're trying to make things work around each others' schedules. I do love my boys though and can't wait to see what the rest of the year brings to us!!

Summer agenda #1 COMPLETED

I committed to getting my hair dyed professionally by buying a new eyebrow pencil (NYX Auto eyebrow pencil in #EP06 Taupe) and did the deed last Thursday @ Salon Classy since they were the only salon who seemed to provide hair extensions within my price range too. Honestly though, you get what you pay for. I just snipped them all out a few minutes ago because they were ridiculously irritating.

Pro:
  • Did what it was supposed to do and added a significant amount of length and some volume to my hair
Cons:
  • Quality of the extensions was terrible ~ I had numerous split ends even though I used 3 different types of leave in conditioners and it didn't look very natural unless I kept brushing my hair otherwise they'd remain in their straggly bundles
  • Maintenance was a b ~ Blow drying is a no-no and air drying is nearly impossible. The stylist said I'd be able to curl or straighten it as long as I kept everything on low heat, but there was no effect whatsoever
Next time I'll be sticking to clip-ins or at least consult with the other two reputable salons that provide extension services once I save up again -__- And I definitely won't ever get them done in the middle of summer especially when it's so effing humid. I'm really satisfied with the color though! Might even go lighter in a month or so, but will probably buy a home kit instead just to save money and time.

Too happy for words

A couple of weeks ago, mi novio stopped by at the office to give me this in celebration of our one month! ^__^ I'm one of those sentimental celebratory suckers so I like to recognize even the smallest things in life! Thank goodness I found someone who feels the same way!

We also went on a breakfast date to Cafe Kaila later in the week ~ couldn't have been happier when I saw that they served lox & bagels!! I was craving them for over a year now and they were dericious! So sad that there's less than a month of summer left ;__; It's definitely been the best one as of yet full of surprise visits, shnuggling, and yummy food!

Favorite Vitamin Water flavor!
We kinda have this competition going on based on our memory and it all started when he got sick shortly after he asked me out. I went to Don Quijote and made him a small care package with cough drops and other things. While I was standing in line, I saw a pack of apple & pineapple flavor Trident Layers and remembered how I had offered some to him while we were in the same psych class and I couldn't stop laughing at his response. ^__^ So ever since then, we've been reminiscing about our little encounters and somewhat testing each other on how well we remember favorites and what not!

Summer agenda #7

GET FIT! ..In effort to complete SA #3 @__@

So I've been making excuses and putting off losing weight for too long, but today is the day! I started the Fit Test for Insanity and quit halfway through because it's just too ridiculous for my weak self. I'm so out of shape..I'll try again once I settle into my newb routine ;___;

And to improve my body in general, I finally bought Mederma Stretch Marks Therapy and a cell body roller from Don Quijote. Just started using both and of course, no visible results, but hopefully it'll be somewhat noticeable by the end of the month? ..If not, there's always Rodial Tummy Tuck & FatGirlSlim.

Summer agenda #5 COMPLETED!

Mi novio took me to the 50th State Fair for our first official date and it couldn't have been more picture perfect! The weather was nice and there were hardly any lines, even though I wouldn't have mind waiting. We rode most of the scary rides including the Zipper (my first time!) & Pharaoh's Fury and we were disappointed when the ferris wheel broke, but luckily, it started working again right before we were about to leave so we hopped on ^__^ I honestly couldn't have imagined doing anything better and it was nearly impossible for me to stop smiling (unless we were being flung through the air).

He took me to Yanagi Sushi afterward for dinner and it was so yummy! The way to my heart is definitely through my stomach ^__^ Seriously though, throughout my 6 years of relationship experience, not one of my previous boyfriends ever took me to a restaurant as nice as this (well, maybe once, but I ended up paying). In all honesty, all of them combined could never make me feel this happy and special. I'm so in love <3

He even bought me the prettiest roses too! > w < It's the first time any guy has ever gotten me flowers (besides prom). I set them in my living room and now every time I pass by, they remind me of him and I have to look down to hide my smile so that my parents don't think I'm crazy.

Luckiest girl in the world? I think so!

Mi novio

I went from being someone who I thought he never even knew existed to being the girl of his dreams and I couldn't be more ecstatic! I'm experiencing physiological side effects just from being ridiculously happy -- I can hardly sleep, I don't feel like eating (for the first time ever), and my cheeks hurt from smiling too much. Believe it or not, but my skin has also become 10x healthier..probably due to all of the positive energy that's been surging through my system especially when he holds my hand or kisses my forehead ^__^ He's the sweetest, most honest, and caring person I've ever met and I have no idea what I did to deserve him.
