What a week so far

Ok so I just got woke up by my 3 year old Channing. He has been getting up around 6am for the past month or so (grrrrrrrrr)! I am so not a morning person. My usual morning routine consists of grabbing some coffee and sitting on the porch enjoying the silence until I have fully woken up. Well this morning I heard some crazy birds chirping that sounded very unusual (not a fan of birds by the way) anyways the sound was coming from my neighbors yard. I look over to find 2 ducks in a cage! (WHAT THE WHAT). Ummmm I'm not understanding their need to keep ducks as a pet. They already have a maltese and a bunny that constantly escape into our yard so now I'm just waiting for the day when I walk into out back yard to find a duck in our kids swimming pool.

Oh and for some reason I've been able to get on youtube this week. I just clicked and there it was, so I got to film my first tutorial. I have another idea for my next one and I want to film it on my flip camera and to do that I have to have access to the youtube website buuuuuuuutttttt wouldn't you know I tried loggin in this morning and it is blocked again. I don't get it!!!!!!!!

Kissed by Summer




For the hot summer months skip foundation and play off your skins natural sunkissed glow. Use a shimmering peach eyeshadow on the lid with a deep bronzed brown in the crease. Use a brown waterproof mascara to finish off the eye keeping it natural.

For lips use a nude color like soft nude by revlon and a nice coral gloss overtop.
beautiful and easy for the summer days on the beach!!!

10 tips to Healthy skin

10. Don't touch your face during the day......this will keep bacteria at bay

drugstore haulin'






Picked up a Conair lighted mirror for my vanity and I'm really enjoying it. Lipstick is revlon colorburst in blush. Eyeshadow trio in shimmering sands by covergirl and from their bright eyes collection this is the blue eyes kits and it comes with a little brush. Stopped by the local nail salon and got some pink glitter nail polish for 1 dollar and it is beautiful.

You Tube dilemma

So finally after starting my beauty channel and getting familiar with the YouTube site we have been blocked from using it. We live in Turkey and they frequently decide to block certain websites that they feel (threatened) by. So freakin' angry right now. Luckily I can use my ipod touch application to view it but I am limited. I can search videos and comment like regular but I can visit pages or edit videos or even view my own channel.....BOOOOOO for Turkey!!!!!!!
