As you all know, New Moon came out last week. I was pretty pumped to see the premiere so I thought I'd just show up to the first showing. We underestimated the crowd. We saw the cue and turned right back around. I said "HELL TO THE NO!!" We went on our merry way and made ourselves feel better by noshing on Mexican food (sweet potato enchiladas) and nutella crepes for dessert. Food always makes things better, ha ha! :) Other than reading and studying all weekend this was most of what I've been doing. How has your weekend been going?

Head Explosion
Dissertation, tests, papers, statistics, humerus, oh my! This week has been an overload of information for my pretty little head. I think it may actually self-destruct in 5 seconds Mission Impossible style! Three weeks from today I have a paper and test due. EEK! Saying sorry ahead of time that my updates are not as punctual. Last weekend I colored my hair a nice dark hue of black cherry. Looks yummy! :) I finally found a pair of skinny jeans that I like from a place here called New Look. MAC cosmetics had a 10 percent off sale at a local department store so I bought a new eyeshadow called Woodwinked. Anything new happening for you this week? Let me know in the comments section. Would love to hear from you! I also wanted to comment on how the young ones dress these days. I went out to a club/bar in Bournemouth and was appalled at how short the skirts were. I really think that 'women' these days really don't leave much to the imagination. I mean I saw bits and pieces that NOBODY should EVER have to see! What are your thoughts on this?

Perma-Grin!!
So I got my first post-grad essay back and did pretty well for what I was expecting! I had a sinking feeling that 6 years of academic inactivity would highly affect my writing or lack their of. I proved myself wrong and received the same grade as my fellow classmates. SCORE right??!! I've had a permanent grin for the last 3 days. YAY!!
Yet again a slow week for giveaways :( What was the best thing you've ever won from a giveaway? I once won a SonicCare Tootbrush. I used it all of one year then got too lazy to replace it. AND it's way more expensive than buying a good ole plastic toothbrush.

BOGO free BONANZA!!

Halloween Aftermath!
I did two of my most favorite things this Halloween: 1) Hosted a Party and 2) wore a crazy outfit. Outcome: TIME OF MY LIFE!! Back in summer I saw the trailer for the new Alice in Wonderland movie directed by Tim Burton and when I saw the Mad Hatter I knew that it was what I wanted to be this Halloween. It was definitely a hit with my friends. Some did not even recognize me! We also went out in town and people were giving me some interesting looks. I loved it!! 
Goodies:
Yay I won some moisturizer this week. I won it from the lovely My Organized Chaos. Yu-be is a Japanese brand that is one of the best in the country. I did see it while I was living there but never knew what it was. Can't wait to try it! :)
TIME FOR THE SALES:
