Valentines Day!

I should probably post about this before I totally forget to!

I’m feeling a little bit better today. My cough has gotten worse but I don’t feel fever-ish or congested. But I do feel flemmy. I debated on taking a nap, but now it’s passed 6:30PM and I don’t think it’s a reasonable time to be napping, darn. I shoulda napped sooner!

Anyway, on to Valentines Day!

My mom got me tulips the day before Valentines Day. She always manages to get me flowers, which is sweet of her since my husband doesn’t seem to believe in giving flowers for special occasions, or at all actually. And it was cool cause this year I wanted tulips!

Procrastinating.

I’m suppose to be getting ready for my trip, but my OCD doesnt seem to be in the mood which is making it difficult for me to touch anything that I need for my trip. I know, that’s a little hard to understand.

So while I let her calm down (and hopefully she calms down soon) I’ll make a quick post about Christmas.

Christmas isnt my favorite holiday (my favorite holiday’s are actually Valentines Day and New Years Eve). I love the holiday spirit, getting ready for Christmas more than the actually day OF Christmas. But lately Martin’s been making sure I enjoy Christmas every year :). This Christmas was much better than last years (last year we were so broke we literally made each other gifts)!

He brought over two gifts! He of course wouldnt tell me what they were but the one on the bottom was heavy!

I finally got him to let me open the top one. It was one of his Air Force BMT PT shirts, a Target gift card and a card he drew and wrote in. I shoulda took a picture of it but I wasnt thinking about it! Darn, I’ll post one later :)

We chilled on Facebook, playing Cafe World and watching A Christmas Story finally! At 8PM he let me open my other gift.

He has this thing where he wraps a gift, puts it in another box, wraps that box, etc etc. This was probably the longest unwrapping I’ve done. It would be wrapped over twice in completely different wrapping paper lol. By the time I got to the actual gift I was tired of unwrapping!

I dont know if I mentioned this but he was bummed out that he couldnt get one of the Limited Edition Metallic Blue DSi that came out last month for me (it has 5 pre-installed Mario games. One of them being Mario VS. Donkey Kong March of the Mini’s 2 — March of the Mini’s is one of my favorite games). So of course when I opened it, I was super surprised to find that he did get the DSi for me! I was super excited. He tricked me, again. I even checked our statement and there was no charge for any place that would sell a DSi! Grrr! He opened his gift and he was surprised to find a DSi too lol. Yes, we bought the same gift for each other lol! And it must suck for Marissa cause she came with both of us to get each other our gifts and she couldnt say anything to either of us LOL!

Our gifts! His is the black one, mine is the Mario one :)

His family tricked me too. His mom got me the DVD Julie and Julia and both Marissa and Martin have been preventing me from buying that DVD since it came out! I’m so excited to watch it! I use to watch her cooking show when I was a kid. I went to culinary school and I’m a blogger :) they also got me Cheshire socks. They havent missed getting me at least one Cheshire thing for Christmas yet lol! My mommy got me some New Moon stuff and my dad gave me money :) I wasnt expecting much from my parents since they’ve been super helping me out with this wedding thing. That alone was a huge enough gift from the both of them!

Spent Christmas Day at my cousin’s house (as always). It was nice seeing my family, I’ve missed them! I only get to see them on Christmas anymore :( my cousin’s baby Jacob is adorable! He’s so quiet, he didnt cry the entire night! I met my other cousin’s newborn Mya, she’s so tiny! She was asleep when I finally got to see her. My nephew Evan was hanging out with Martin, Martin got him to eat and was playing cars with him like the entire night lol. It was cute. Evan has the cutest “angry” face. Martin is so good with kids, like seriously, its kind of amazing how good he is with kids. Which makes me feel bad that I dont want kids, he’d make a perfect dad. Me on the other hand, my temper is too short to deal with kids lol.

They were playing car’s when I took this picture lol.

I have a picture of me feeding Evan, which was weird… cause I’m not good with feeding kids. But I totally know how my mom felt now when I’d run off after every bite lol.

Okay, I think I should go get my stuff ready for the trip now…! Haha.

Best idea ever!

A few days ago, I was waiting for my parents to come home and I was looking through my mom’s makeup. I noticed that her eyeshadow covers were cracked off, her sponge applicators were literally falling apart. Her beauty powder was worn out and the sponge applicator for that was all flimsy… it was just, depressing. My mom’s been using her makeup for years. I guess Filipino parents don’t spend much time updating their makeup til they literally run out. So since Mother’s Day is coming up, and I’m such a makeup junkie these days, I decided to make her a MAC palette. I was gonna make her two, but the blues/green’s idea I had wasn’t going to work. So I just made her a browns/whites & the boyfriend picked out an LA Colors palette that caught my eye. I also bought her some NYX blush ($.99 at Amuse!) and Flirt! brushes. I’m also gonna include an ELF brush. Kinda like giving her something of all of my favorite brands. I’m thinking of making her a MAC palette of all of my favorite colors too. I was thinking of getting her follow-up gifts for her birthday too. I was gonna get her a new beauty powder & lipstick but I don’t know if I should wait til her birthday to do that.

Martin came up with the idea to get my dad an ipod for Father’s Day, I thought that was a pretty cool idea. So yeah, I hope he likes that too. Gonna put all his favorite bands on there and some of my favorite songs since he always talks about how he likes my songs and stuff… follow-up gifts for him too would be a speaker or something.

So I just called Disneyland to apply for Club 33, and apparently the waiting list is FULL and so is the member list. FML lol. I’ll check again in September, I suppose. The wait time is 2-3 years. Hm.
