FOTD, University & Cake

UPDATE: Please vote in my poll on the right. I want to know what prizes you guys would want to win in my next giveaway coming up this late August.

I bring with me good news (well for me at least)
I GOT ACCEPTED TO UNIVERISTY
Korean Studies
Copenhagen, here I coooome!

*parties with everyone*

Words can't even describe how freaking excited I am. I've been dancing around all day (pretty much) saying "I'm a college student! I'm a college student! WOOOH!" I also just got a call saying that I got a place to live until my apartment-application-thing for OEK goes through.. So yeah, I'm excited as HELL right now! -parties some more- Big thanks go out to ALL the amazing people who've been so damn supportive through this. I've been super frustrated lately because we get notified so late (which is a bitch when you live far away like me, cause u need to get an apartment and everything settled), and so many friends and family members have been cheering me on. So thanks so much for that! ♡


In celebration of my epic university SKILLZ, my mom made me my favorite cake! 'Brunsviger'. I don't even know what it's called in English, but it's a soft dough with brown sugar and cinnamon over it. SO SO SO YUMMY! ♡ Thanks momma!


FOTD


I haven't been doing much of beauty blogging, but here's a FOTD. If you're wondering wth is going on with my nose, I got some bad burnwounds going on there. LOL. It's much better than it's been for a while.. but sadly I like to pick wounds, which is pretty gross, so that kinda sucks and makes everything worse -__-" lol.


PRODUCTS USED
Face - MAC Pro Longwear Foundation, MAC MSF Natural, NYC "Sunny" bronzer, e.l.f. Mineral Blush "Joy" (favorite blush EVER!)
Lips - e.l.f. Hypershine Lipgloss in "Bubble gum", Revlon ColorBurst "Soft Nude"
Eyes - e.l.f. 100 Shadows Palette, H&M Hello Kitty Glitter Liner, NYX Slim Eye Pencil "Black", Maybelline XXL Curl Mascara "Soft Black", e.l.f. Studio Cream Eyeliner "Black" and L'oréal Super Liner "Carbon Black"

I hope you guys like it. I'm a bit rusty on doing makeup, cause I really haven't worn it at all this summer.. so yeah.. That's about it for this entry. I'll let you guys know more about the whole moving-to-Copenhagen-part later on, as I need to call the lady tomorrow and get more details. Hopefully everything works out! : D If you live in Copenhagen or nearby, please hit me up! I'd love to meet some of you Danish beauty bloggers out there (if there even are any besides from hopy and Jeongie.. -__-" lol.)


And also... look what I brought home from Germany/Gold Cup trip!


Hehehe. I like Pepsi Max. They should seriously consider sponsoring me. I don't think anyone loves Pepsi Max as much as I do..

I'm also still working on a future giveaway featuring both items bought by myself and sponsored by Apothica.com. If you haven't checked out their website yet, you really should! They have SOOO many brands it's ridiculous; Stila, Bobbi Brown, MAC, Christian Dior, Paul & Joe, Smashbox, Essie and Deborah Lippmann.. AHHH..  I can't even!

Alright. Done babbling. Sorry.. T_T"
TALK TO YOU GUYS LATER!

Norderstedt Cup & Gold Cup 2011 + Announcement!

IMAGE HEAVY!

Hello you all! I'm finally back home from battling the Mud of Doom and Forces of Rain here in Denmark. lol. Okay, it may not be that bad, but I'm telling you guys.. camping in the rain, storm and in mud = suckiness. I'm currently starving, waiting for dad to yell my name and lasagna/food in the same sentence. -awaits dinner impatiently- I swear, I can hear mom setting the table.

How have you guys been lately? I haven't been online on Blogger much - and I know T_T I see my number of comments on each entry going lower and lower. -cries bitter tears- It sucks, but I gotta work for it, yes?! (Ò__ó)/ *brings kitchen battle axe*

Either way! I bring with me some photos from the two dog shows that spread throughout the past 10 days.. but before that? An announcement. You may have noticed the ad to the right.. yes? YEAH BABY, I got sponsored! This means tons of great reviews, awesome giveaways and special opportunities for YOU guys! I hope you'll all stick around to see what goods are coming from this cooperation. I'm definitely very excited, so thanks a lot to Apothica.com for the generosity! I've also been collecting a few items for a future giveaway that I'm having 'on my own' (with items that I paid for myself). I really wanna give back to you guys, as you've all been so damn amazing and kind to me.. so look out for that!


Now... PICTURE SPAM!

Lastly I want to pay my condolences to the people of Norway. They were struck by the actions of a heartless, selfish and delusional man by the name of Anders Behring Breivik on the 22nd of July, 2011. I feel so incredibly sorry for the family, friends and bystanders to the 68 victims of the Norway Massacre. Denmark has your back all the way. Please stay strong! This man will be punished as deserved! (Ò__ó)/

And with that said... have a great week, everyone! Hopefully I'll be back soon, but for now - I'll spend some time unpacking, catching up on messages on Blogger, Tumblr and Facebook and relaxing. I managed to sprain my left shoulder during this trip (as a result of showing 3 wild-ass dogs the past 4 days), so I'm pretty beat. I love you all! Please send your prayers, wishes and hopes to the people of Norway.. During these times, they definitely need it.

Until next time!

When all you can do is talk about the weather...

As promised, here I am - blogging again, letting you know about what's going on now and lately. My dashboard here on Blogger has been darn related for the past week's time or so. Am I the only one who's been completely unable to see who follows my blog lately?


It's really freaking annoying. It works today, but I'm not gonna hold my breath. lol. Blogger is FAILING lately. Sadly I'm too fond of the design and blogging system in general, that I cannot make myself move anywhere else. *clings to blogger*

Anyway! Here's what's up!
First of all.. the weather up in hurr has been extremely sporadic. Both with its good days and its bad days. Mostly the bad...

Beginning of the month:


The past few days:


Yup, that's what I do. I get up at 4AM to look at the sky. Or well.. I stay up till 4AM+. I just had a short period where I slept at midnight and got up at 9AM or something.. but I deliberately flipped that upside down. I simply don't like staying up during the day. Nights are prettier, more mysterious. I don't even know.. my dayschedule would match perfectly if I lived in Pennsylvania or something. When I was there 3 years ago, my sleeping schedule and the time zone CLICKED like soulmates. I feel that maybe the stork dropped me at the wrong spot..


Oh well.. food porn! As always, I bring you a bit of food porn. It seems a lot of you don't mind (at all), so I take the freedom to post some quite often. First.. Chinese noodles, peas, veil and soy sauce. SUPER delicious and very simple to make.


Second... HEHEHE. My fabulous fatty-crepes with ice cream and fresh strawberries and banana slices. Nomnomnom! I swear this is probably the best dessert ever.. the creaminess of the ice cream, the freshness of the fruits and the soft consistency of the crepes. Oh my~ *food-gasms* Hehehe..



A small FOTD. This was actually from last Sunday. My aunt just gave birth to a BEAUTIFUL baby girl, Sophie. So so so cute! I'm not really fond of babies.. they look kinda weird to me. There are the cuuuuute Asian babies who look like they smashes against a wall with their tiny eyes and adorable little noses. And then there are white babies... -__-" I'm getting an Asian baby when I grow up some day. I got a few propositions already, HAHA! Nah, I kid. But I really wanna either adopt a kid or 'make one myself' (that came out wrong..) But in all seriousness.. Asian babies take the crown of the show for being the CUTEST little creatures ever! Except for my baby brother.. when he was little, he was the PERFECT little baby. I just kinda feel like they don't come around often -__-" *signs up for adoption service* LOL. I shall teach him/her both English, Danish, German AND Korean! Fourlingual-baby up in hurr! Hahaha. He/she's either gonna turn out super confused, super nerdy OR super cool.. I'm hoping for the last one, but oh well.. //blabber over



As I told you guys in my last entry the other day, my best friend Shiki came over for a visit. She and I hadn't seen each other since November 2009. How freaky is that? We spent the first day together comparing make-up collections and she decided to draw on my leg as well. lol. We call eachother 'mylady' and have been doing so since as long as I can remember.. I actually met her online back in 2006 (I think?) on Arto. She was head admin of a Miyavi fanpage and we clicked immediately. My mom then drove me ALL the way to the West-Coast to meet her. I had brought my Miyavi CDs and she and I had the BEST weekend ever. That's when the term "Jrock-weekend" appeared for the first time. We went to a small grocery store and bought Pepsi Max (she's a fellow addict), Maxibon-ice creams, chips and candy. We talked, laughed, watched Dir en Grey live DVDs, jrock clips online, listened to LM.C singles and looked at pictures and posters. We were MAD fangirls (and we still kinda are).
That's one of the main things that make me love jrock and visual kei so much. It brings people together. ♡ When I first watched a live show and noticed how, at the end, everybody were crying. The tour finale made people cry.. first I was like "wtf? Pussies!" but then I realized.. while most tours in the Western world is more about promoting yourself, making money, putting your stuff out there. Jrock and VK shows are more about giving back to the fans, seeing them, entertaining them. The tours are more for the fans than for promoting the bands themselves and letting them make more money. That's one of the greatest things about jrock. The artists genuinely love their fans and it truly shows. Ahh~ *emotional sigh* (ó__Ò).. ♡


Lastly.. as promised. The pictures of the litter I helped raise. ♡ These fellas are the last 4 (the owner is keeping a male and a female for herself). I've never seen a litter this succeeded before. If you're familiar with breeding, you will know that raising a litter is HARD-ass work. Getting the genetics right, the looks, the colors, the bone structure - everything is SO difficult. I'm aware that some people just blabber it all together and hope for the best, but serious breeders are very concerned about health. Looks are a plus - but health is the most important thing. We'd rather raise a litter of mediocre-looking dogs and have them live 12 years with no issues at all, than raise a litter with heart conditions and bad hips, simply because they will look good with the combination in question.

Anyway.. here they are. Enjoy~

Female from the picture I showed to you guys in the previous entry.

Female that the breeder will be keeping.

The large male called Malone. ^__^

Female from the last entry on the left. Valliard on the right - male.

Female.


That's about it. To some news.. or news or news, lol. I'll be leaving this Friday 15th of July, I'll be leaving for a dog show in Germany. (FACEBOOK EVENT LINK) On the following Monday, my parents are I are leaving for Nyborg, Denmark for the annual Gold Cup dog show held in Denmark by the Newfoundland Club. They're both gonna be great shows! Let's all hope for dry weather without it being too hot. I'm bringing Saya to both Germany and Nyborg.. I have a feeling that nobody would even consider volunteering to babysit her - she's vicious. Haha!

And here.. my ugly face. lol

I wish you all an amazing summer! I'll be back not this weekend - but the next. So almost 2 weeks from now. EEEK! I'll miss you guys super much! ♡ 
Please don't forget about me while I'm away!
