Happy Holidays 🌼

Happy holidays, everyone!
If you don't follow my Twitter, or
if we aren't friends on Facebook,
then you might not be aware of my 
recent singing/dance cover with
KRP28 member Jenny!

We got together and decided
to sing and dance to AKB48's
"aitakatta" for Christmas!

This was my first time dancing,
ever! So it was really hard, and it was
pretty scary going putting it out there!
Despite some complications, I did get it done!
I don't feel I tried as hard as I could have,
but nonetheless! Jenny's editing made it
look amazing!

Jenny and I are already planning our
next collab, and I can promise it'll be 110% better!
I can't wait; we're working really hard ♡

Please comment, rate, share, let us know
what you guys think! Con crit is always welcome!

Birthday ✿

Hello, everyone!
Today I got to celebrate my
21st birthday!
Since it's a Tuesday,
everyone was busy, and I 
decided to spend it with my parents
instead! It was very enjoyable.

First, at 12:00am, I took a
selfie with my puppy, haha!


She was tired, but I made her!
As long as she's being held, she's happy♪
I decided that this would be my first video
as a 21 year-old old lady!




It's not much... But I wanted to.
I got make up from Yuki chan, and I wanted to use it!
And I think the title was a little funny, haha ✿

Later I got to have Starbucks!
Which I know, it seems like I go a lot,
but in reality I don't. If I'm very lucky,
I can go 2 times a month!
But usually it's only once every couple
of months, so I was lucky to go♪


I didn't leave to go to dinner
until it was about 4:00pm, so I was ready!
I was excited, and I couldn't wait for the
delicious food ✿

I wore my lenses, of course!
and I also painted my nails a pretty
pink to match my outfit!


There were lots of pretty lights, they even
had decorated a few places. I really wanted to sit
in one of the booths, but there was a party
right behind my family and I that were
getting this one.


I ordered the shrimp parmesan sirloin,
and it was so delicious! I also had sides
of broccoli and mashed potatoes, but
in the end I couldn't eat it all.


Of course, since I turned 21,
I also ordered a drink!
Well, a margarita... But they had mango!
I've tried them before with my sister,
but they hadn't had it. So, me being the
mango lover I am, got one!
My mum did, too c:


It's actually a bit more of
an orange, but it looked green
under the flash.

It was yummy, but I don't like
the taste of alcohol, so after today
I'll probably stick to my coffee addiction,
haha.

Before I left, of course,
my dad mentioned it was my birthday,
and the waitress and the staff sang to me.
I was so embarrassed, but it was fun!




Our waitress was the girl on the far left,
she was so nice and patient with us, since my
dad took forever to order.

The brownie piece and ice cream they gave
me was also really delicious!
I'm glad it was small, since I was full already♪
I really appreciate them doing this!


My mum had taken me out earlier to
buy some fuzzy navels that we could drink together
at home, so I was excited to go home and try those!
I also wanted to relax a bit!


I did enjoy the time spent with her,
since we talked a bit.
I still don't like the alcohol a lot,
but I did like it a little more than
the margarita, and the case of four
was cheaper, too!


I really enjoyed my birthday,
and so many people wished me a happy
birthday on my Facebook, too!
I really wish all days could be like this,
but I'm so tired!

It's time for a nice, long sleep now,
so I'll see you all soon!

Bye bye✿

Pinky Paradise Review ✿ Geo Starmish Brown ✿

Hello, everyone!
I have a wonderful review for you all today!
As you may be able to tell from the title,
I am going to review Geo Starmish Brown
with diameter 14.5 from Pinky Paradise


I ordered these lenses because I was looking
for a natural colour that would enlarge and enhance
my natural eye colour, and from the way they looked
on the model, I couldn't resist them!

They arrived in about 17 days, which is pretty
fast shipping from overseas! Many packages from outside
the USA usually take a month, so the shipping was really
quick, in my opinion ♥
They arrived in a small package:


The package was in surprisingly good condition,
I was expecting it to be a little beat up.
I'm always a little worried about the lenses
when they're shipped in these instead of small boxes,
but Pinky Paradise protected them really well,
and the lenses themselves were wrapped in
pink foam!


I couldn't wait to take them out, 
even the little bottles were really pretty!
Alas, I had to clean them before I could wear them,
and I set them to soak for 24 hours.



After 24 hours, I took them out,
and put them in! Since I was going out,
I thought it would be perfect timing to wear them ♥







These pictures are all in natural sunlight,
with only the third photo having a flash.


↑ Before and after comparison ↑

The lenses are comfortable, even for me,
who has small eyes, and haven't worn lenses
in a whole year! They don't bother me at all ♥

They give my eyes a refreshing look, and enlarge them
without making them look unnatural, so I am definitely in love
with these lenses! While I was out, I also got many compliments on my
'natural light brown eyes' from strangers, so I 
have completely got the desired results from these lenses.

They also sent me two gifts along with the lenses,
which would be the cute animal case (which is free with every order).


And the fringe pinner!
... I'm not sure what you call it in English,
but I'm really grateful they gave me one!
It's really helpful for when I apply make up,
and when I'm wanting to put my lenses in to make sure
my hair is out of my face!




Now on to the rating system,
out of five stars...

Shipping: ★★★★

I give shipping 4/5 stars because it was, like I said,
amazingly fast for something from overseas, and I am
definitely pleased with how quickly it got here.
The only thing I would have liked was to have a tracking number,
(which they might have had, and I just missed), because I got them
a day late since I missed the first time they were delivered,
as a signature was required.

Lense colour: ★★★★★

I'm giving the lense colour a 5/5 because it gives me a
nice colour that doesn't look so ' out there ' that people automatically
knew I was wearing a lens, and it looks so natural!

Enlargment: ★★★★

I'm giving the enlargement of these lenses a 4/5 stars!
I was looking for a natural looking lens, so like I said these do suit
what I was going for, but they were a little big for me, but nothing that
was really bothersome, it's just because I have small eyes.
If it weren't for personal preference, they would have been a 5/5 easily!

Comfort: ★★★★★

I give the comfort an easy 5/5 stars! I have naturally dry eyes,
and even after wearing them in dry weather for about 7 hours,
I didn't feel any discomfort at all! 

Overall, I give these lenses a 9/10 rating, since the only thing for me
is preference and the tracking number, and I have no other problem.
You'll definitely be seeing me wearing these lenses is many future photos,
and I'll proudly tell people I got these lenses at Pinky Paradise

I plan to buy some lenses from them in the near future, as well!

Pink ✿

Hello, everyone!
I'm terribly sorry for the dry
spell in my posting, things around here
are really busy, especially with the holidays!
Anyway, I recently ordered a pink jumper off
of Ebay, and I received it  a few days ago!

Of course, I did take a couple photos ♥


Forgive my messy editing and...
everything else. I quickly tried to make
the photos look nice. Anyway, this jumper is
the cutest thing, and I'm really happy it fit!


I love batwing clothes because they're not
clingy and tight (which I hate in shirts), but it
still looks cute with a white shirt underneath.
Even though there are holes in it,
I don't feel exposed in it at all! Probably since
it still takes some looking through to see my
skin, haha ♪




I'm actually not happy with the way I look
in these photos, but whatever! That's not what
this is about, right? Anyway, on the the review for
this Ebay store ♥

The store is called
7bee on Ebay, and they sell Asian fashion,
with a lot of their items not only being cheap,
but also having free shipping !



I had $8.00 to burn, and this jumper
was a cheap $7.99, so I had to get it!
It would be perfect to wear on my
night out on my birthday ♪

The jumper I received looked exactly like
the one in their photo, so I have no complaints!
The shipping price, arrival time, and fit are perfect!
I ordered it on the 15th of last month, and it
arrived on the 29th, so that shipping was amazingly fast
for getting it free♥

The only problem was a small tear near the bottom,
but that was easily sewn up in under a minute, so there is
no problem whatsoever!

My review for this store, overall,
would be a 9/10 simply because I cannot comment
on their customer service, and because of the hole.
But I had no problems, and I will
definitely buy from them again ✿

Also, my lenses from Pinky Paradise arrived today,
so expect their review in the next few days!

Happy cookies✿

Hello, everyone! How've you all been?
I've been well myself, but it's so cold now!
To me, it might as well be Christmas as soon
as it turns this way, haha.

I'm going to an early Christmas party
at the local senior home tomorrow, and 
they're having a bingo game to play for presents.
I was thinking,
"What could I give a senior that they'd enjoy?"
And it hit me: cookies, of course!

Moving on to the delicious part...
The first thing you need is Devil's Food Cake mix!
Yes, cake mix.


This is the best part of the cookies!
Who'd ever think to use cake mix? I didn't before these.
You do not follow the directions on the box; remember!

Next, you add  1/2 cup oil, and two eggs:


And of course, you mix it!
Use your hands, and mix it until all the light
brown cake mix is gone. It'll be like dough,
instead of like regular cake-mixed batter.


Now you take a normal sized spoon
(not big and not small)
and roll them in to a ball, like bellow!
Now you might want to put some powder
sugar on your hands so it doesn't make your
hands as sticky; since this recipe requires that
kind of sugar, anyway.


Next, you roll the dough in the powdered sugar!
It's important you cover as much of the cookie
as you can, because it's going to get baked in to
the cookie! Afterwards put them in a cookie sheet
far enough apart so they can cook.

I didn't have a cookie sheet, so I had to
use a cake pan. It didn't bother them, though.


Then set the oven at 375 and let it preheat,
then put them in the over for about 10-15 minutes!
Once time's up, take them out, and let them cool!
You can put them on a plate for your guests,
and you can all share them ♡



Of course, the other option is to put
them in a cute can and give them as Christmas gifts!
Since mine are going to be for other people tomorrow,
that's what I chose to do.


If you try them, let me know
how they turn out!
Mine turned out deliciously,
and even after they've cooled,
they were soft in the middle.

Happy Holidays!

Out shopping✿

Hello, everyone!
Sorry I haven't posted in a few
days, it's been really hectic here!
Today my dog went to the vets to
get spayed, so  I'm kind of lonely....

And what other way to deal
with loneliness than shopping?!
Okay, so I didn't buy anything...
But I did try on a couple tops.



Well, this shirt isn't my style...
But it reminds me of my friend, so when
I saw it, I had to try it on!
I may or may not actually buy it next month
just for that reason, haha!



This sweater looked so much better in person!
It was cute, but it was also $18.00 so in
the end, I also put this back, haha.


The thing about this top was...
It looks good from chest up, but the
rest of it kind of looked like a disaster, haha.


This one actually looked lovely on me in person!
It's my favourite, but it was also too expensive for
me to buy this today. However, I do plan on buying
it first thing next month ♡

After shopping my mum and I decided
we'd take a trip over to Starbucks, since we
were already in the area! Since I discovered a new
drink last time I was there, this time I
ordered another Chestnut Prailine ♡


Also take the time to notice the girl in
the background on the left, also photographing
her own drink, haha! We are those people.
 Of course, no true 'hipster' goes to Starbucks without
taking a selfie, so here's your dose of 
Rin for the day :P


Hope you're all well!

online circle lens store that you can buy them from!

In case you're not aware,
circle lenses are colour contact lenses that are
used to not only change your eye colour,  but also give your eyes
a gorgeous enlargement effect.

(To be completely safe, you should always go to
an eye doctor before buying circle lenses!)


In your search for lenses, Pinky Paradise
offers many ways to find what you're looking for;
such as by brand, colour, and prices! 
But what if you wear glasses, or have other vision problems?
