wut did i learn at JC last nite? hhmmmm well in the 1st hour we learned bout the diff between High Fashion and Ready to wear Designers...the subject was good, but the damn teacher or so called facilitator was such a beeyaaa! seriously, sumthin was up her butt for that whole hour! she used to b a model when she was younger, ugh i dont like her...she says these smart ass comments too, not cute sooo not cute! blah... but anyways after we were done with her class, we got to play with makeup..woo hooo...well 1st we learned bout skin care routine and all that stuff...then we learned how to put concealer, contour, foundation, loose powder, and compact powder....whooaa i have never heard of contour before, and we have to take all these steps just so we look like we put powder on...whoa i mean all these time the only thing i use is compact powder...but i must say playin with them was fun! so how was my 1st time puttin them on my face? hmmm....i think i failed!..ehehe...my face was white, i look damn pale not so close as lookin like a clown tho =) and my facilitator was like how old r u? im like 21...then she gave me this funny look and said, u never put makeup on? im like eh not really...then we both looked at each other an giggled, i guess it was that bad!..haha...and it was soo sad, cuz this girl who is only 12 did better than i did...now thats sad! but its all good, cuz it was only the 1st time...so now i gotta practice and practice and practice...hehee

then after class Yoga, my cuzin Indra and his girl Mela came and picked me up...and all four of us went to Starbucks and i got a tiramisu and this vanilla shakes thing...they have the BEST tiramisu ever! well over here i mean...in the states u kno who has the best one rite? yup gotta b OLIVE GARDEN...sooo yummy! we chilled at starbucks for a bit then we went to eat some fried rice at midnite cuz thats when i realized that the only thing i ate all day long was 2 toasts and a pear..yikes! so i ate and i mean ateeee, i finished that bad boy all by myself..hehe...
