The travel to chicago

This is what I blog about when I can't use data on my phone and feel lonely on a bus with nothing to do.. Don't judge me!


I'm writing my adventure of this 14 hour bus ride.
So far ive met this super cool amazing girl from montreal. Shes 17, all alone and going to kentucky for a soccer scouting match. Shes super pro and all alone. I hope she does well this weekend! She has such a cute french accent!
Why do greyhounds on short trips have 1 dollar fare options, wifi, outlets and leg room and my 14 hour bus ride has none of this? Kill me now.
Me and my new soccer star friend are laughing at the guy beside us snoring. This is going to be a long night.
2:06 am some idiot is playing dubstep. Or maybe happy hardcore. Nope.. Bollywood happy hardcore with dubstep breakdowns. How do i instigate a mutiny.
6:09 am boarder control guy was terrifying. Made me show him multiple ids and my fb conversations with amanda. WTF
6:15 now friends with a guy on the hus going to acen!
7:00 am got to detroit michigan. Me and my amazing soccer friend went on a trip to burger king for food. Oh sweet jesus. Why are people so terrifying here! Detroit is sooo super ghetto! So far only one car hasnt slowed down and honked at us. As if i hadnt seen enough stero types today, people are blasting eminem.
7:45 i miss my new friend mary so much. Im worried ill never see her again! Sbe has four more hours at the terminal. Atleast i have my new convention. Even the girl doing a weave pat infront of me cant cheer me up

On my way to chicago for acen!

I cant beleive this is happening. Im sitting on a bus for the next 14 hours on my way to chicago. For the first time in my life im actually adventuring. Im way too much of a good girl.

So heres the story. When i was 10 i met four amazing people online. They were sami,liz,amanda and eclipse. We all basically knew each other because we were all super young and into cosplay. It wasnt very common back then. We all lived in different places. After countless nights of amazing group msn chats, we couldnt wait to meet each other. We planned on living in a house together one day and going crazy. You get the idea.

Eventually liz started traveling and met sami and amanda. Then i met liz. Then amanda met sami. As we got older we grew apart. We had less time to be online and more real life problems. It was hard but i never stopped thinking or caring about them. Truth is they are still like a internet family to me. I think it was amazing to have had the connection we had. After a paticularlly bad month i decided the week before i would hop on a bus and go to acen the convention sami and amanda had been going to for years. I honestly dont think i thoght i would go but im typing this while on a bus! This is totally not what i had pictured but i had to make this happen. Lifes too short not to go on adventures. I cant wait to see what happens and make crazy memories! I just hope i get some fking sleep this week!

Fact. This blog started as a group effort between me and sami. She wasnt online much so i turned it into a way to bitch about my broken 14 year old heart. Hope you enjoyed your history lesson.

High Fashion Fitness. Because You Should Look Like A Superhero When Working Out

Workout wear just seems to be getting better and better.
The fashion world has defiantly shifted towards it in the last few years.
Thank god! I remember trying to find a pair of decent shorts two years ago was a nightmare. I looked everywhere and finally caved and cut up a pair of pants from pink to wear for cheerleading. Thankfully those days seem to be over.

There is just too many choices lately! It's a great thing!
Brands are becoming increasingly risque too which is great. Looking like I'm from a video game is just necessary for me to workout.

Here are the things I desperately want to pretend I'm working out in. Or you know, go grocery shopping looking cool. I like to legitimize purchases by saying I'm going to wear them to dance. Also, sports bras are just so much easier to wear!

Karma is the latest fashion active wear line and I'm sure they are going to do amazing. Canada is THE place for fashion forward active wear lines. I love it! Karma has taken over The Shoe Room at the National Ballet and is also sold at Sporting Life. The fabrics are super soft and high quality. It was so difficult not to buy anything from them!

The Dorthy Tights are super unique and the Elanor sweater looks super cool and comfy!

The Shoe Room is a great place to check out for cool clothing even if your not a dancer. Don't be afraid to pop in! www.karmawear.com

and Michi.... I am in love with Michi.

With another point for Canada, Michi is the love child of Lululemon and The Pussycat Dolls.

I just need $80.00 for the anti-gravity bra and $195.00 for the sway pant. Maybe if I pretend I'm an assassin I could actually learn to run. Need.

I also love the bionic bra! 

The Lululemon Practice Freely Top at www.shoplululemon.com is great for lazy days.

I'm wearing this right now! In a white and blue striped bra and a white shirt. I would love this in a coral combination.

I'm loving all this seasons color. I just probably wouldn't look good with it on! For anyone who could look good in this Stella McCartney for Adidas top, it is your duty to rock it.

Adidas has a great webstore with lots of sales and alot of free shipping. Check it out if you love online shopping.

What are your thoughts on the latest workout lines?

Revlon Photoready Airbrush Mousse Review

I haven't done a makeup review forever. I felt the need however to warn you of this horrible product.

Revlon was one of the first brands to have decent drugstore foundations. They must have fired the wrong person! The foundations seem to be getting worse with each release.

Airbrush foundations can be great! This one, not at all. Photoready airbrush is really just a greasy mousse foundation.

Basically this is one of the worst foundation formulas I've ever tried. I have dry skin but this seemed to make it greasy. It seems to seperates into patches almost. The coloring is super unflattering and the product oxidizes fast.

The packaging makes it hard to control the amount of product you get. It has super unflattering glitter that looks like grease. It has no staying powder and it smells bad.

Your probably better off going without foundation then useing this!

Skin 79 Intense Classic Balm Review

I haven't done a makeup review for quite awhile so I figured I would get on that!

This product is one I feel pretty strange about.

It's the Skin 79 Intense Classic Blam.

Retails for about $20.00 USD locally. The texture of this bb cream is slightly different from others that I've tried. It's thicker and has a almost gel like consistency .

It has medium coverage that shows up more dewy then matte. I found it pretty decent for concealing acne. It didn't totally cover all the time but it didn't get all flaky and dry which was nice. I don't think this was the longest lasting foundation though.

It has a ashy tone to it like most bb creams but it is never really a problem once on the face. It oxidized fast.

I was disappointed by the amount of product you get. I feel like you need a fair amount of this to really cover your face. It doesn't spread that easily. If you have alot of problem areas your going to need a lot of foundation. I like some bb creams for the ability to quickly spread the product all over my face for some type of coverage. Then I can concentrate on the worst parts. This bb cream is more for a specific trouble spot because of the amount of product it takes.

Verdict: Good for sensitive, dry skin and acne but might not be the best value if buying outside of asia or online.

I like it though! I would agree it is somewhat soothing and the coverage isn't that bad. Good for everyday, hassle free foundation. For days you don't need to look totally perfect but pretty close!

Why I Will Be Unable to Pay Rent This Month

Oh man, sometimes I think having so many awesome over priced Asian stores close to me is a bad thing.

Yesterday I went to J-town for the first time. It's a super small, oddly placed Japanese market. I was pretty disappointed with the size. The magazine store was cool though, it was awesome finding Kera. They had vivi, cancan, shoxx, seventeen, a bunch of shojo magazines and some idol mags.They didn't carry popteen which kind of surprised me as you can find it in other places. The cool thing is you can order in a magazine. I ordered Ageha but she said it would probably take over a month to get it in.

Richmond Hill is a city right outside of Toronto that is like it's own Asian country. It has a few huge Asian malls and markets. You won't see a totally English sign for blocks when your there. I'm going to do a post on Pacific Mall soon but for now here is what I've bought in the last week!

My J-town purchases! (Expect the my melody friend key chain). Keram yanyan and these super odd but awesome roll cakes. I think the roll cakes are going to be hard to find which sucks because they taste good!

I couldn't help but buy this crazy cute Liz Lisa Dress.

Or this Liz Lisa style skirt.

Or this WC style skirt.

And this Liz Lisa head bow from the super overpriced 109 brand carrying store Vivi. I can't even come to terms with how much I paid for it. It is just...is...so..cute.

Well I'm going to have a super busy day listing the majority of my closet on ebay but thanks for looking!
