Anxiously Awaiting...

Hey, guys!

It's me again.  I'm just chilling in the library waiting for my Physics II Lab anxiously because we get our exams back today and I just know I did absolutely terrible on it... Yikes!

I just finished my lab report from the last lab (I'm such the procrastinator) and thought I'd blog a little since I don't actually have anything else to do right now.  I've been staying on top of things.

So, I'm sure you've noticed that I've been putting videos on YouTube again.  Yeah, I think I'll stick with it this time.  I think it's a lot of fun.  I know my camera is not exactly the greatest quality, but I'm hoping to get an HD camera sometime within the next couple of months, so please be patient with me.

Also, if you haven't seen my previous video:


Basically, I'm going to do a giveaway if I reach 100 subscribers and give away the extra Mac Fluidline Gel Liner in Blacktrack I got sent by accident.  I thought if I made it that far, my subscribers deserved a treat to show how much I appreciate them.

Also, HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!  I totally almost forgot.  Yes, it's Halloween and sadly, I have no Halloween party to go to tonight, but I won't let that get me down.  I probably should use that time studying anyway, since I know I didn't do well on that exam yesterday.  I hope everyone has a fun and safe Halloween.  Also, if you happen to stumble upon my channel or this post and want to share your pics of your costume, I'd love to see them.

I guess I'll stop rambling for now and find something else useful to do.  LOL.

Later!

My Halloween Costume


I tried my best to look like a lifeless doll.

Here is a closeup on my doll makeup.

If you want more details on how I achieved this big-eyed dolly look, check out my video:

I kind of look creepy in the still.  LOL.

Anyway, as I've already told you the party I was going to was cancelled due to the hostess being ill (or at least that's what I was told), but I felt like dressing up anyway and sharing how I created my doll-like look.

I know Halloween isn't for another few days, but I want to go ahead and wish you all a Happy and safe Halloween in case I don't post anytime between now and then.

Well, that's if for now.  I've got loads of homework and a Physics II test to study for. :/  I'm such the procrastinator.  Shame on me!

Later, dolls! ;)

Back on YouTube

Hi, everybody!

Peachy Sara is back on YouTube!


Sorry about the poor quality in this video.  I used my laptop camera.  Don't worry, I used my better quality camera for my next videos and for the videos here on out... until I can get an even better camera, of course.

I'm happy that I'm making YouTube videos again.  I enjoy sharing my ideas with anyone willing to watch or, in the case of my blog, read.  I'm not going to chicken out and take down my videos this time like I did in the past.  I've learned that, yes, I'm not perfect, I'm not the best, but I'm who I am and I'm unique and talented in my own special way.  I enjoy making videos and I shouldn't let my negative opinion of myself stop me.  It's very true that "you are your worst critic."

Anyway, for anyone who is reading this, please feel free to wander over to my YouTube channel, the link should be posted somewhere to the right of this post.  I'll try to put videos out as often as I can, probably once a week at the very least.

Now, I have some bad news.  That party I was invited to got cancelled because the hostess got sick.  I was kind of bummed about that, not only because my friend is sick, but because I was actually looking forward to dressing up and sharing my photos of my costume on here.  But who knows? I might just dress up for the hell of it and take a few photos anyway.

Well, that's it for now.  It's almost 1 am and time for me to go to sleep.

Later!

Walgreens Mini Haul/My Halloween Costume/OOTD

Hello all!  I'm sitting in a study room right now helping a classmate out with some homework that was due Monday.  Ha!  Thought I'd share a little bit of my life with you.

Yesterday, I went to Walgreens to pick up some meds and of course did some browsing around.  I was glad, though, because look at these bad boys:


I decided that these would look great with my Halloween costume (which I'll get to in just a bit).  They're from the makers of Wet n Wild cosmetics and they have a few other lash choices to choose from if these don't tickle your fancy or match your costume, rather.  They also have a selection of Halloween makeup that is very inexpensive, so go to your nearby Walgreens and check it out!

And for the rest of the things I picked up a Walgreens... Well, they're not that exciting, mostly essentials.


I needed some nail polish remover and they had a sale of 2 for $2 (or $1.29 each), so I went on ahead and bought two.  I got St. Ives Mineral Therapy body wash.  I'ver never tried it before, but it smelled good and looked very moisturizing (which is what I need)... We shall see.  And then a Sinful Colors nail polish that was on sale for $0.99 (originally $1.99)



I picked up Nirvana



I thought it'd be a nice brown color for fall (just FYI, it looks darker in person)


Now for my Halloween costume.  I sort of found out last minute that I was invited to a Halloween party, so I didn't really have much time to throw something original together.  Instead, I dug around in my closet and found this:


(Excused the curly hair... That photo was taken during my crazy perm days)
Didn't have a really good front view of the dress... :/
I love all the poofiness at the bottom! ^_^


Anyway, I purchased this Sweet Lolita dress from milanoo.com over a year ago and was going to wear it to a wedding, but never did.  I decided to be a doll... at first.  Just a plain doll, but then...

I saw Bubzbeauty's tutorial on how to do a porcelain doll that is broken and I decided that I would use the cracks/broken pieces idea for my costume.  She did a great job! And, you can also see where those ginormous lashes come into play.  Dollies seem to have those enormously long, thick lashes.  I can't wait to see how it all turns out and I'll be sure to post pics I take before the party. :)

Also, if you were wondering about that tutorial Bubzbeaty made and are interested in being a broken porcelain doll yourself, here's the link: Porcelain/Broken Doll Transformation

Moving on to OOTD!  Just something simple and quick I threw together.  Probably not worth mentioning, but why the hell not since I'm already here?


Green Shirt: Target
Striped High Low Skirt: Target
Leather Bracelet: Kohl's



Boots: 6pm.com



Sheer Scarf: Walmart
Anchor Necklace: Mom
Diamond Necklace: Mom
Earrings: Mom



Bag: Marshall's

Well, loves.  I think that's it for now.  I seem to have crammed a whole lot of things into one post... By the way, this is my second time writing it because I accidentally deleted it before... Ugh... Anyway, I've got a situation to sort out so...

Later!

I've been gone...

... and I'm sure no one has noticed.  That's not the point of this post anyway.  The point is share what I have been up to.

So, my life has mostly been busy with school.  There were a few weeks that I had tests and loads of assignments due and not much time for anything else, but things have slowed down a bit and I can relax a little... for now.

Also, last weeked I went to visit my fiancĂ© for Fall Break.  YAY!!!  I hadn't seen him in OVER TWO MONTHS!  We had a great time.  He spoiled me aaaaaand he took me horseback riding, something I've never ever done before.


Me riding Rambo

I'm 22 and I've never been horseback riding and I even had a best friend in middle school who had a horse and often rode it and somehow I guess it never occurred to either of us to let me try riding it.  I guess we were too busy playing 007 on our Nintendo Gamecubes, playing the Sims, and talking about getting our periods and boys we liked.  It's nice to reminisce about my preteen years... but not for long. Ha!

Anyway, I had loads of fun riding.  I was nervous about riding Rambo... his name is Rambo.  Wouldn't you be nervous about riding a horse named Rambo if it was your first time?  Rambo was a sweetie though.  He was a bit stubborn getting started, but other than that I had no trouble riding him at all.

To anyone who has never been horseback riding, I definitely recommend it.  Horses are beautiful, intriguing creatures.  Just make sure you have someone with experience to guide you and you'll have a safe, fun time.    

Well, that's it for now.  Hopefully, I'll get back into posting pretty regularly again.  I really enjoy it.

Later,
Peachy Sara
