Bridal Shower + Bakerella Cake Pops

I went to my boyfriend's cousin's bridal shower yesterday and it was my FIRST ever bridal shower. I thought her friends were so creative and everything seemed perfect. There was a lot of talk about these cute little cupcake pops and I just wanted to share with you guys how to make em yourself! I've made these before 2 years ago when I spotted them on Bakerella.Com. I made so much for my boyfriend he just said no more lol. They're extremely sweet but they're fun to make and exceptionally cute! Bakerella is an awesome CAKE-MAKER lol. She does so many things with cakes its amazing and everything just looks adorable and vibrant. Check out her blog at Bakerella.Com. You wont be disappointed! Have fun! Bring em to a party and wow your friends. :)

Below is a video of her promoting CAKE POPS! book and a tutorial on how to make your own cake pops.

P.S. I wish Nathan and Thuy the best of luck with their relationship. I can't wait to attend the wedding!

Phil's 25th Birthday

My BooBoo turned 25 yesterday. We didn't do much celebrating but we did go shopping. He wasn't too excited haha. We didnt end up doing anything 'fun' 'til around 10pm. We went bowling with his cousins and boy did he get DRUNK!

I've never really seen him this way but I think hes really silly, cheesy, and gentler when hes this way. Although hes cheesy when hes drunk, he can also get into a lot of trouble. I.E. forgetting my name calling me Yen instead of Jen. Making that mistake twice in one night. *grumbles* but its forgiven since he kept telling me how much he loves me on the car ride home.

The night ended with a sink-full of chunks. :)

Deals!

So it seems that I have been actively scouring http://slickdeals.net/ for.. you guessed it, DEALS! I'm a Business Major and I've been waiting for these Business magazine deals to show up and it finally did! I got 2 Years of INC and Fast Company magazines for only 10 bucks! Beat that AMAZON! It was a package deal to help Japan's crisis. I believe that for every subscription sold, $1 will be donated to the RED CROSS to help Japan's crisis.

If you want to get the magazine deals you can find it here. The coupon code is RELIEF.
You can find other great magazine deals here if you want other types like Wired or Popular Science.

And of course, if you're just looking for good deals in general... you may find it by going to http://slickdeals.net/

Sephora Makeup Order

I recently received for my birthday Philosophys New Tinted Moisturizer from my sister and honestly, it didn't really go with my skin. I have dry skin so it made my skin look terrible so I returned it and order other stuff online! 5 items, around 50 bucks. Not so bad. Everything was on sale. I'm excited but my cameras broken without a battery charger too! I took this photo before it crapped out.
List of items from Sephora:

• Sephora Concealer Palette - This is not powder concealer but actually creamy. It comes with a cute little brush. I believe it was 8 dollars.
• Sephora Liquid Eyeliner in 02 brown was sold for 5 bucks, originally 10 dollars. Its a brush tip thats thin for easy precise lining. (THIS IS NOT A FELT TIP BRUSH!) $5.00 on sephora.com
• Sephora Base Primer. Honestly, I feel this base primer is too greasy. It doesn't feel like SmashBox's Photo Finish primers where the texture is silky. This one feels like a lotion. Although it feels greasy, it gives off a matte finish. $8.00 on sephora.com
• Anastasia Highlighting Brow Kit. To me, is beautiful. The baked brow powder is very pigmented and naturally looking. The tones are neutral. It doesn't have a red/warm undertone like some brow powders do. The highlighting powders are frosty in my opinion but glides on sheer. This kit is versatile as it can be used as an eyeshadow rather than just a brow kit. They work well wet or dry application. In stores these go for about $38.00 but on sephora.com its only $20.00
• Stila collectible travel palette #3 (Trendsetting in Tokyo) is a cute combination of colors. Its a steal for only $10. I like the convertible cheek/lip color (Sakura) because its almost like a sweet pink look. The convertible color is gel based and it gives a baby/barbie doll color. The black eyeshadow (Peace) is pigment black with little black glints of glitter. The blue(Shibuya) is a matte royal blue color. Pink (Kawaii) eyeshadow is a shimmer sweet pink. Then theres Sake a champagne shimmer shadow. I honestly bought this for the convertible color and possibly Sake Champagne shadow.

This isn't a review or anything. Just wanted to share what i bought! Sorry no swatches. D:
