My Week In Photos #3

Oh, maaaaaan! This week was crazy hectic! I wasn't able to blog at all this week and sadly enough, I didn't get many pictures of all the things that kept me busy but whatever! Still comin to you with another "fabulous" week in photos. Let's begin! 

My bestie, James, invited me to go to a comedy club that one of his co-workers was performing in. It was so awesome! The venue was beautiful and all the comedians that performed were hilarious! I've never been to a comedy show so it was an awesome experience. 

The food was also great but my only complaint was that there weren't any vegetarian options for food besides French fries lol so that's what I got. 

I took the time to reorganize my personal makeup train. I mean, I am super anal when it comes to my pro train case but I was seriously slacking when it came to my liddo personal one. It was driving my nuts! So I made time. Does anyone else get super crazy when things are unorganized??

Oh, and by the way! It was snowing up here in NYC while I was working! 

Good thing I was inside though lol. So, Thanksgiving was awesome. I spent it with some friends because my family is in Florida. I ate a lot, laughed a lot aaaand of course, I bought some goodies online because I'm not about that Black Friday shopping life. I'm more of a cyber Monday kinda person, you feel me?? I have not, nor do I think I will ever go shopping in person haha.

Welp! That's it, my friends! Haha seriously a short post but it's ok. How was your Thanksgiving??

My Week In Photos #2

Hey guys!

Once again, we have reached the end of the week, thus cometh thy week in photos. To be honest, not a whole lot happened this week. I was in the city around 37th St earlier this week at one of my favorite cosmetic stores. When I left, I saw these pretty window displays for Christmas. Oh man, are the holidays speeding by or is it just me?! Sheesh!

Later in the week, I did makeup on a mom and her daughter for her quinceanera. (It's the latino equivalent to an american "sweet 16" but when you're 15 instead for those who don't know what it is.) It was so beautiful! Beautifully decorated and the little cupcakes and candies were so cute! 

Lastly, I got a phone call just when I got home from my friend Ryan telling me to go to CVS because they were doing a little beauty club giveaway. Best believe I got my tired ass up and stopped by! Plus I had $24 in extra bucks so of course I made good use of that and got some goodies while I was there. Mostly makeup of course lol. 

That was my week! How was your week?

My Week In Photos #1

Jeeeez! So many days have passed since I have posted up here! Work has been insane and with a recent passing in the family, it is way too easy to neglect your social networks but time away is good sometimes, right?

I've decided to start a new segment on here called "My Week In Photos" and it's not like I invented it lol! It's been around for a while now so I decided to give it a shot because I think it's an interesting way to give you guys a better look into my life with a couple pictures of things I've done during the week, week by week (hopefully lol). So here it goes!

This is one of my closest friends, James. I went over his house for an awesome Adventure Time themed monopoly night fully equipped with Dominos pizza! His boyfriend was there but hiding lol it was so much fun. Although, as you can see from the second picture, he suffered defeat as I owned literally everything except for BMO (electric company.) He refused to give that up! All those properties you see there?? Yup, mines too. Haha.

A few days later, we met up again for lunch.

We went to this cute little restraunt in Inwood called Garden Café. We shared pita bread & hummus with black olives on the side as a starter and he ordered a turkey burger and my order was a garden burger. Complete with fries & ketchup. So good! Everything tasted so fresh and the waiters were really nice. He washed it down with sparkling lemonade and I got an orange mimosa.

Towards the end of my week, my aunt and I got breakfast at a diner in Forest Hills. I totally forgot the name but it was a nice and quiet place to enjoy a meal. She had coffee and I ordered a hot chocolate. Soon after, our meals came and I got a spinach omelette with toast and curly fries and she got blueberry pancakes. We shared the curly fries & toast. It was so nice! Unlike so many of the people I know, breakfast is actually my favorite meal. If I don't have to miss it, I won't!

Lastly, I have been routinely trimming off the damaged parts of my hair (the pieces that don't curl properly) every month and a half. This time I decided to cut a bit more off but I must say that my hair is improving so much and I am really happy with the way things are coming along. Stay tuned for tomorrow's post. I'll be posting a healthy hair update! Until then.. Hope you all had a great week!

Love & Rockets,
Melissa.
