Simple FOTD and Hongdae

Good morning and good evening! Depending on which side of the world you're on. I'm still going through my lipbalms so I can do a quick review on all of them on the same post.
I'm slowly getting better, thankq for all the well wishes =) My voice sounds like a manly frog speaking English/Chinese since yesterday. I'm kinda hoping that tomorrow I'll still be in the same state so I can call in sick. You won't believe how badly I want to call in sick.

I didn't do much on Saturday. I wandered around Hongik University, I'm sure it was the Hongdae area. Anyway, there's quite a few things to see...a lot of mini stores that sell pretty clothing and a lot of accessories.
I just did a simple look, didn't feel like using a whole bunch of stuff on my eyes. I did a look similar to Fuz's Korean actress inspired look, it's just black liner and very little eyeshadow. It seems so rare that I don't use eyeshadow.

I've been using the UDPP for a few years already and I noticed yesterday that the Coffret D'or shadow creased! Hopefully it's not the CoD shadow that's creasing, but if it's the UDPP, I still got another new tube to go through before cracking open the BE Prime Time.
I used the MM Frame Expander Plus mascara plus the Fiberwig. I wanted to really "beef" up my lashes since I wasn't doing any special shadow look. I think I was using the P&J lipstick in 062.

I'm a bit tempted to use falsies, but I'm sure it'll end up in failure then I'll get so frustrated.
In the close up, I actually forgot to apply the Coffret D'or shadow before tightlining, so it smudge a wee bit when I attempted to apply it. The liner is also a bit thicker than in the picture. I've tried the MUFE Aqua Eyes, but it smudged terribly. I really like the texture of the MUFE liner but I had to give it up. The P&J liner stays on but it's not as soft as the MUFE liner.
Oh! My eyebrows are started to get fuller too! I've been usin the Ardell Brow and Lash Growth Accelerator for the past week and a half and it's really starting to make a difference. I don't use it on my lashes because I have the Canmake Lash Essence.

So in the Hongdae area, there's a lot to see. According to some foreign teachers that I know, the areas south of the river (can't remember the name) is considered the rich area. It's actually a HUGE difference compared to the area that I'm living in. There's more shopping, restaurants and university students, so it feels a bit safer to be walking around at night.
I met the Pon De Ring Lion!!! I wanted to take the blankets and plushies that were behind me.

Going back into the subway and this was at around 5:30pm on a Saturday.
Again..what's with the "cock"?! I'm sure it actually says cockls, but still! Final picture, what were those girls thinking? Even though it was a high of 15C, everyone else was still wearing jackets and such. The makeup on the girl to the right looks weird. It's like she drew her eyeliner all the way up her eyelid. I would never ever dress like that in public...

The lovely DHC Store. I went inside and it was empty!! It's so awkward to have the SA following you when the store is empty. I found collagen capsules for 25000won, I might go back to get it. It'll save me more money than adding it into my 4000won Smoothie Kings everytime.

Short Post

I don't really have anything to update for the past few days. I've been sick.
The coughing and sneezing without covering the mouth and spitting everywhere by people has finally hit me. Even my students do it everywhere and inside the classroom while I watch them....*sigh* Will catch up on commenting this weeked!
I leave you guys with a giggle for Friday.

April Fools! That was a crappy joke wasn't it haha. I don't think Korea plays pranks and such on April 1st.

I can finally say that I've had a great day at school. I only taught 1 class today because I had a meeting to go to in the afternoon and I got 2 big boxes in the mail. You can probably imagine my shrieks of joy.
First off, the Christmas like package was from the lovely Diana (aka Paperdoll). Seriously, you didn't have to send me so much! The package I sent her was like one tenth of the size lol. She loaded it with glorious junk food and bars of soap that smells sooo good!! All the junk food will go straight to my thighs...but whatever, I'll work it off when I go back to Canada lol. Thankq!! I was soo excited to see the TGIF chips, they're not available in Canada, same with the Rasinets. Thank you again Diana!!!! =D=D=D

My friends had sent me a belated Christmas present hahaha. I didn't take a picture of it because they sent me a bra and panties...they claim that I didn't have to wash my undies everyday hahaha..how thoughtful. Anyway, I asked them to send some tampons over, and half the box was filled with it along with some other items lol. Didn't think anyone would want to see tampons. Thankq!!! I know you read my blog XD

I came to Korea without any lipbalm and look what I ended up with. I'm missing one from Angie because I left it at school, but I gotta do a review on these sometime. So many things to do, so little time. I consider the P&J lipstick to be a lipbalm because it's sheer slightly shimmery.

Everytime I get a package in the mail, there's usually yummy things in it. The sweets seem to have taken over my only kitchen pantry/cupboard thing. Look how healthy I am...there's a bottle of multi-vitamins on the very bottom left.
There's still more coming, I'm expecting 3 big packages from Hong Kong soon. One of the packages I'll get sometime at the end of the month includes some P&J items. I couldn't resist. I was only going to ask Tim's dad to help me get an extra Moisture Cream, but the SA convinced me on the phone to get a certain amount for some free goodies. They're probably just samples anyway, but a nice excuse to get some more things to play with.
