It is 2012!

I hope everyone had an amazing holiday, and is enjoying the new year.
My goal is to blog more, and comment on the blogs I read and youtube videos I watch.

This year there is going to be a lot of changes, I will be graduating University and moving back home and I have applied to go to makeup school in the fall.
This year is time to do what I want, which is to pursue makeup.

Of course, I had to buy something from the Nicole by OPI Kardashian Kolors line, and no matter what you think about this family they are brilliant at marketing their brand.
When they first started showing glimpses of this collection, the only one that really caught my eye was Khloe had a little Lam-Lam, also I love all the names of the polishes
so cheesy, yet so good.

I love dark colours on my nails, and this is a nice pigmented creme-finish dark teal that is very glossy. I highly recommend it and think it is one of the more unique ones from the collection.
My only gripe is the brush, because it is cut on an angle and makes it a little tough to apply but it's fine.

Sally Hansen Salon Effects in Laced Up

I have purchased these before, and while they are easy and look nice, I must admit I did not like these as much as others. They are pretty easy to put on as long as you follow the directions which are simple and put a top coat over, they last over a week but I usually get sick of them to let them last any longer. My only concern was while I had this particular one on someone asked me if I had "shatter" nail polish on. Hmph I have shatter, and essentially paid another $8.99 for people to think I had it on.
Probably would not repurchase this particular one, but will definitely purchase other patterns.

I am slowly becoming obsessed with sheer tops, this one I found in H&M for $14.95 and also bought in a creamy white colour. It makes me happy that fall is here because I feel like fall is the time to bust out your moccasins, thus what I did today.

DISNEY

I am 100% a believer in the magic of Disney, which you have to be to enjoy the happiest place on earth.

Animal Kingdom literally blew my mind, it is a zoo on crack, from ALL the animals, the rides and the parade. I was expecting to like it but not LOVE it, and honestly I wouldnt skip it.

Epcot on the other hand mixes learning and fun, and if that's is your deal you will love it. I enjoyed it of course, but if I were to rate them it would be the bottom of the list.

I enjoyed this little treat in the America Pavillion, MMM!

I enjoyed this treat while watching Indiana Jones, which is an amazing classic, Hollywood Studios is home to my second favourite ride of the trip, the Toy Story ride, is a 3D interactive ride where you play kind of arcade games, literally the most fun I've ever had.

and we saved the best for last, Magic Kingdom!

Words cannot describe how much I loved Magic Kingdom, from when the park opened to every ride we went on, it literally is pure FUN!

Florida: Universal Studios

This summer, I headed to a place I have been dying to go since 1998 (the last time I was there)... Florida!

I pretty much had the best vacation ever so here are some photos from being in Universal Studios!

I was obsessed with the Seuss part of the park, it was just so bright and fun!

The Simpsons are new-ish to the park and if you were ever a fan of the show, you will be so impressed, I loved it and the ride was so much fun

and finally the part that I was unsure how much I would enjoy, because I am not a Harry Potter fan, ended up being my favourite part of Universal

The Harry Potter part of the park was unreal, they literally take you into that world. The ride was the most fun, waiting in line they take you through Hogwarts and is an experience. Once you actually reach the ride you are "flying on a broom" and it was one of the best rides ever.

Also, you MUST to try the frozen butter beer because it is the most delicious thing on this planet!
