Quick Update....

  Hey Guys sorry I haven't done a Post lately I just been having a lot going on with School and With my Health. I was in the Hospital a Couple of days ago because I was Vomiting for 3 days and was becoming dehydrating. The Doctors had to put fluids back in me and they couldn't let me leave till my Heart Rate was down. It was really high that day.
  Also Yesterday Was my Birthday and I turned 19 :) Me and my mom and Bro went to go see Scream 4. The Movie was pretty good better than I thought it would be. After that I had my Math College Class and It was my Final Exam. The test was Pretty hard and I couldn't remember much of how to do some Problems. Math really is not my easy subject to do.
 Update: So Basically I am now on Temporary Leave at my Job I can't work again till Aug. :/
Anyways so Hopefully things will get better for me but you can never know what life is gonna bring to you.

Love,

Haul #1 (Elf,Revlon,NYC,Covergirl,etc...)

Hey Guys so This Is my first time doing a Haul for my Blog. I got these a Couple of days ago at my Local Grocery store and I am always looking for deals. I bought everything my self just so everyone knows. I just thought I would share what I bought just in case you are looking for something new to try out or wondering about a product your not sure to try out. Not all these products I have tried out yet but for the ones I have I will do a Mini Review on them on this Blog Post. So Lets Get Started!!

Oh sorry for the Quality using my camera on my phone :/
SO to start out I bought these at Walmart for a Great price but can't actually remember what they were because I always throw it away. So In this Picture I got Hard Candy "Just face It" In the light Shade they have. I love This Because It's a all in one, it is a foundation, Concealer, Powder, and a Primer. I thought it was so cool when I saw it and I just had to try it out. I tried it out yesterday and I love how smooth it goes on and it does help with my horrible under eyes. I really Recommend that you should at least try it out! Next is the NYC Kohl Eyeliner Pencil in 926 White. Now I picked this out because I needed something to brighten up my eyes especially in the morning because I look so dead. I have tried it out but I am still trying to decide if I like it or not. Last in this picture is the Maybelline Expert Wear eyeshadow in Twilight Rays. It has 8 shades and Matte, shimmer, and High-Pearl. Now I haven't try this out yet but I decided to do a Swatch to see if these are pigmented and most of them are really pigmented so thats a good thing. It has navy blues,white, pinks,greys and purples.



Alright Next is all about the Lips! Now when I started out buying Makeup and wearing it I never really liked wearing Lipstick but for some reason just one day I started to wear it more and just liked the Pop of Color it gave me. Now I do have hard trouble finding colors that look good on me because my skin is so fair and it is hard to find a color that looks good on me. So this is what I found... First is the Revlon Just Bitten Lipstain and Balm in Passion. I heard really good reviews about it so I decided that I should give it a try. I haven't though tested it out yet but when I do I might do a Review on it to let ya'll know what I thought. Next is the Covergirl OutLast Lipstain but I don't know what Color it is in but the number is 547 if that helps. I haven't tried this out yet either but I will soon. Last and What I really love is the CoverGirl Natureluxe Gloss Balms. I really love the colors and how smooth it goes on my lips. I have Tulip, Coral, and Sandstone. All these colors look great on my lips my fave is Tulip.

Okay Last of my Haul is my Favorite makeup brand ELF. I love this makeup because it's really cheap but at a good Quality. When I started to wear Makeup I started out wearing this Brand. Now I got this Online and I only Paid $28 for this Makeup shown in this Picture which I think is a good deal except for the shipping cost. Also It didn't take that long to show up at my door step. First I will start on the Left, Which is Elf Matte Lip Color in Coral and Teal Rose. I tried both of these and I love them. The Quality of them is really good and when you apply it to your lips it's really smooth when it glides on. I usually will put some lip gloss on top to finish the look. The Color that is my favorite is the Coral now I never really wore Coral so this is a new and different look for me which I like. Next is the ELF Beauty Book Neutral. I really wanted to try this out to see how they would look and last on my eyes. Though I haven't tried this out yet but when I do I also Might do a review on this too. Next I been looking for a Powder to go on Last to my face to finish the look and so i wanted to try ELF Clarifying Pressed Powder in Ivory. I have tried this out recently and I am still trying to decide if I like it so I might need to wear it more. Now is the ELF Conditioning Lip Balm SPF 15 in Peaceful Pink. I really Like these because my lips get really dry and cracked so I put this on and it makes my lips kinda relax more and moisturized. I now own Peaceful Pink and Mellow Melon. Last is the ELF All Over Color Stick in Lilac Petal. I loved in Elf Color stick in I think in Ivory so I thought I should try the Lilac Petal. I tried it as a Blush and It looked good.

So I hope this Helped a bit and Ya'll Enjoy it. If you want me to try out a Beauty Product let me know in the Comments.

Love,

Not so Good friday....But Happy Earth Day!

Hey guys So today hasn't been a good day for me. I Started my day off early because I had to be at work at 7:30am. So when I got to work we had no Power so no one could shop (Working at a Grocery Store) So I had to clean up around the store. Which I don't mind doing. Well I had to give my Manager a Paper about my health because if you read my older post it talks about my health and I have a hard trouble working with my disease. My Manager told the head boss and He told me that He doesn't want me to work untill my health is better kinda like a Temporary Leave. It was really upsetting to me because Now I have no Idea what I am going to do about money and for college. I am about to be 19 this week and it has been really tough for me lately I am just trying to stay positive and strong but it is really hard for me to do so. Now today is not over yet so maybe I can get some hope because I really need some right now.

EARTH DAY
Anways today is Earth Day So I hope people will do their part in trying to do something to clean up our earth, one little thing can help change the world. Mine will be for me today to save energy and water because Less is always better.
Not a lot of people in the world have electricity or Water so we need to appreciate what we have and understand that what you have you should be blessed about. 

So Hopefully the rest of the day will go a lot better than it has but we have to just have hope and stay strong.

Love,
CES <3

How Do I Spend My Nights?

Hey Guys I just wanted to do how do I spend my nights when I am not busy or not at school. Mostly I start out by Cleaning my Face with Ponds (Evening Soothe). Now Just recently I started doing Yoga so what I do is I put my Mat on the floor in my room, Then I put in a Yoga Video that I bought. I do Yoga for about 30 mins to maybe almost a hour. The reason I am starting Yoga because It was suggested to help with my Health which now I will try anything. So I am just starting to get used to Yoga and Learn all the different poses my favorite pose is the Children's pose if you know what I mean.
Next I check my Email, Facebook, Twitter and This Blog to make sure everything is up to date.

Then If I have time and I am not tired I will read a Book. Right now I am currently reading Pretty Little Liars 2nd Book. I love this series expecially the Tv show because it has Mystery, Drama, Romance, Just anything that will keep you guessing and wanting more. Season 2 comes back Tuesday June 14 at 7 I think.

Love Is Louder Than.......The Pressure To Be Perfect


Hey Guys Today I am talking about something that holds a special place in my heart, and all of us should understand why. We all have felt the pressure that we have to be perfect it's either with our height, weight, beauty, or just having to be something that we are not. I don't care who likes Demi lovato but I do and I feel that what she has been through that she can relate to us on a level that we can understand. She has been through rehab and is now being a role-model for us who think we always have to be perfect when really we just need to be our self. There is 74% of Teens and Young women who feel The Pressure to Be Perfect. Also School is the #1 Pressure for Teens and Young Women. It doesn't have to be that way we just need to find a way that we can just get through it because It will get better it just takes time and I know this because I been through High School and I know How tough it was for me to try and fit in somewhere. If You need someone to talk to you can always talk to your Parents, Friends, or just someone you can trust. There is many ways we can relieve our stress you can do this by talking to someone, Listening to Music, Painting, Exercise or even dancing. There is always a way. You just have to believe in your self and just remember that to always be your self. You should never have to be pressured into doing something you don't want to do. 
SPREAD THE LOVE!!!!!!!!

*When you feel like you'll never measure up, Remember the Love and Support from your Family and friends is Louder than that negative voice in your head. Write "Love is Louder than The Pressure to Be Perfect" on Your Hands!! And take a Picture and post it on your Blog, Facebook or even Twitter. Show everyone that Love is more Important than the Pressure to be Perfect. 
You can go to Seventeen.com/demilovato To see Demi new PSA and to send in the Photo of Yourself spreading the Message.*

I Feel Pressured to: Be a More Outspoken person and to look more prettier than everyone thinks I am. Just to be me is all that matters to me and if anyone doesn't like it than oh well. I am not going to change for anyone and you shouldn't have to either.

Credit: All goes to Seventeen Magazine And Demi Lovato.

P.S- We all can help each other if we spread the message. You can even do this as a Tag and talk about what you feel Pressured to be or to do. Help Spread the Love!!!

Love,
CES <3

Sunday Filled with...OOTD #2,Healthy food and Running,Lake Time

Hey guys Today was a crazy day. I didn't get any sleep and I wanted to sleep late because it was my day off from work but that didn't happen :/
      So Anyways I started off my day With going to my local track with my mom and bro to do some running. My doctor recommended me to start doing exercise for my health. So I did 3 1/2 miles of a running/walking Pace. Other half well......Me and my mom Cheated lol. After I got home I made me some Healthy Beef Broth and Crackers because I am still recovering from being weak for the past 3 days. So my Family decided today we will go to the lake for today since I was actually in a better mood for once.

What I Wore:
 


The Only Down Fall Was That It didn't really fit well Like I thought it would. The Bottoms Fit me Perfectly but the Top Didn't. The Bottoms were $8.00 and the Tops were the same price and I got them at Walmart.


The Sunglasses I got also at The same Place but I actually can't remember how much they did cost....



Lake Time: When We got to the lake my first thought was "Well I know It is gonna be hot and I am gonna burn today" but that wasn't the case at all. The wind was Insane so it made the Waves in the water freaking huge and wild. The Water was soo Cold that it took me forever to get used to it, Does anyone else do that where it takes them forever to get adjusted to the water Temperature? Anyways thats what I do. We didn't stay that long though because the wind was getting worse and those waves was picking up in speed. But we did have fun though for a little bit.

Pictures?:

My Update On School Life

Hey Guys So Here is where I am gonna talk about My School Life. I am majoring in right now is Child Development. I take classes at MCC, I take 3 Child Development Classes and one Math Class. The Classes I took this Semester wasn't that all bad. They are pretty easy course except for Lab Hours, Because as of right now I am behind on Lab hours. Lab is where you observe children and you do assignments and projects on them. Now I love kids expecially when I get to interact with them. They always know how to make me smile or to make me laugh when I am having a bad day. Now the reason why I am behind is my health, it is hard for me to do Lab when I get weak. If I don't finish 32 lab hours for each class I have to get a Incomplete till I finish the Lab Hours. So I am trying my best to get as much done as I can because I only have 3 more weeks left of this Semester.

The Child Development Classes are:
1. Observation and Assessment
2. Curriculum
3. Educating Young Children

Next Semester I am going to talk to my Academic Advisor before I start the Fall Semester just to make sure of my Doubts. I still wanna work with kids but I was thinking of either working as a Child Psychologist or working in a Adoption Center. I also am Thinking about taking Photography Classes because I love taking photos and I kinda wanna be a Wedding Photographer.

P.S This Summer I am not taking any Classes. I do have the option of taking Classes but I wanna take a break and just work this Summer. This Is my own choice and I think it will be best for me to do.

Love,
CES <3

A Book Review on "10th Kingdom" By Kathryn Wesley

This book is 421 Pages long and Has 46 Chapters. The description given on the back of book says The story follows the fortunes of Virginia, A New York Waitress, Who unwittingly finds herself in a Fantasy World of the 9 Kingdoms. Where she must save a Prince from the clutches of his evil step mother, and restore him to the throne.

Now I can't remember how long it took me to read this. But I do know that I love this book because of the mystery and the magic that it has. It always keeps you on the edge wanting to read more just to see who will survive. This book is filled with Mystery, Magic, Adventures, Love and excitement. A couple of years ago there was a movie done about this book, It was over 6 hours long. Now I love the movie because it follows the book really well and thats what I worry about because when you make movies or Tv shows off the books your not sure it will live to the expectation that you had for it. This book I give it a 8 out of 10.

It's about Virgina who lives on the edge of the forest on Central Park just wanting to open up her own restaurant. She lives currently with her father in a apartment where he is the Janitor at. Tony "The Father" Hates his job and wishes for more than he can handle. Now at the 9 kingdoms the evil step mother escapes by using trolls to help her get out of prison. She uses a magical dog to turn Prince Wendell "Ruler of 4th Kingdom and Grandson of Snow White" Into a dog so that she can take his Place. While Prince Wendell is turn into a dog he tries to escape the Prison instead he runs into a storage room and finds a Magic traveling mirror. He is amazed by it and so He jumps into the mirror and comes to Central park in New York. When He arrives Virginia accidently crashes her bike into him on her way to work. Soon the trolls go into the mirror trying to find Prince "Dog" so they can bring him back to the Evil Queen. Wolf, a Half man half wolf the queen decides to free him from prison as long as he would help find the Dog. Soon Virgina's Dad has eaten a magic bean that lets him have 6 wishes which leds him to end up in hand cuffs escaping from the cops. He decides to use his last wish so that he can talk to the dog so he can understand everything that Prince Wendell says. Prince Wendell warns him that He and them are in danger and they should follow him back to the 9 kingdoms, They have no choice but to follow his command. Once in the 9 Kingdoms they run into some series trouble involving Trolls, Fairies, Evil Step mother, The Huntsman, Gypsies, and most of all Fate and destiny.

The Next couple of books I will be reading is:
1. Pretty little Liars book 2
2. A Walk to Remember
3. Pratical Magic
4. A House of Night Book 1

Would I recommend this Book? -Yes I would because it has so much Mystery and Magic. Thats what I love to read about and if anyone loves books like those then they will Love this book. And... I recommend renting or watching the Movie "10th Kingdom" Because it will keep you wanting so much more.

Love,
CES <3
