Anime Milwaukee + Dollface nago-sa Me-2~♥



So this past saturday was the anime convention in Milwaukee!♥ Finally the moment I'd been waiting for!

This just so happened to also be my very first time attending a con, even though I'd been wanting to do so every since 2008 LOL. But alas, I finally did, and it was beyond awesome.  ☆*:.。. o(≧▽≦)o .。.:*☆

It was also a Me2 for Dollface nago-sa, so I was excited about getting to meet with Ari and the others as well.

My panda bear and I~♥

WARNING: This is a very mushy gushy lovey dovey post, in celebration of Valentine's day. So if you don't like that stuff...you are really going to hate this! haha :p
-----------------------------------------

Valentine's day is here! And I get to celebrate for the second year in a row!! 
Something that I thought would never ever happen to someone like me.


I used to be a true "Ugly Betty" back in middle school and part of high school, lol. I was just sure I'd never ever find anyone who wanted to be with me or could even love me.
But then my panda came along and changed all that!

Gifts I got from my babe: pink monkey plushie, sweet card, yummy chocolate, cool picture frame and a beautiful red rose. And he even treated me out to a movie too! d=(´▽`)=b
I love the cute little pink monkey plushie...I fall asleep holding it close to me every single night.


Now that I'm with someone I love, it's like I see love everywhere. haha 

Heart shaped celery that I found in my soup the other day 。◕‿◕。


Coconut cupcakes that spell out "LOVE"! :3


 Heart shaped cookies I made at work..these were incredibly yummy!


The story of how my boyfriend and I met is so crazy, almost like out of a movie. To this day it's still kinda hard to believe.
We were both introduced to one another via this website. 



(An asian website, but somehow we both found each other instead of asian folks! haha)
Anyhoo, we introduced ourselves to each other on that site. At that time I had no clue what he looked like, because he had a character from Naruto as his avatar. :p
Then we'd both gravitated to facebook. We'd messaged one another from time to time, but nothing more. I found out that he was actually the same race as I was, which was surprising considering the original site we met on was mainly asians of course. xD
Then one day he passed by me in his car as I stood on the bus stop near my house, preparing to go to work.
I hadn't known he'd passed me until I got home and he'd sent a message on facebook saying, "I saw a girl earlier who looked just like you. Weird."
One thing led to another and we ended up exchanging numbers and then meeting in person! :D




We both hit it off very well instantly, and attraction grew quickly!
We'd spend hours and hours out on our dates usually.
We even spent the entire day with each other on one of our dates..twelve full hours. That was the longest I'd ever spent hanging out with anyone. It was truly amazing, and the most fun I'd had in a really long time.
At the end of that night, he kissed me.





Turns out that he had been living only 10 minutes away from me for the past 6 years, and his job was right around the corner from my house...and the bus stop that I'd stood at for the past two years.
(Yes, I am super car-less. haha)
Yet our paths had never crossed until that glorious day.
Both of us suffered a lot emotionally before meeting one another, but every since we've been together we've been so much happier. We've been through a lot together already, which lets me know that he'll always be here for me, as I will with him.
Our relationship has been a reminder to me that good things in life will come, in their due time. ^_~





WTF I look like a such a man here....щ(゜ロ゜щ)


I can't believe we've lasted a year and almost 3 months already...I've never met anyone like him before. He's my best friend and he means the world to me. The first and only guy I've ever fallen in love with! I'm so happy that we've come this far...and I hope to go even further. ヽ(○´∀`)ノ♪

Huge teddy bear that he bought me one time..I named him Mr. Rudero. :D


My love sleeping so peacefully


I am happy that I don't have to be forever alone and bitter on V-day anymore...or any day, for that matter..because I finally have someone to share life with. At last!

French cafe` and more lash practicing! :D



So after going furniture shopping my sister, my mom and I went to Le Reve French Patisserie and Cafe` the other day for brunch!
Man I was soo happy and excited...I absolutely ADORE french patisserie! 




This is the sandwich and peach champagne that I had..with 'french' fries, ironically. 


And afterwards we went to the bakery of which I got some macarons, my favorite! (⌒▽⌒)☆


The green pistachio ones are my most favorite evaaar! :3


I had to rush that morning, so I barely wore any sort coord or make.
Bleh!


Also me, panda and his brothers took a trip to the mall (ended up switching to my black wig again :p):
haha this highway makes my city look so ordinary :p

My outfit that day was kinda meh-ish...I need to get out of this, 'It's too cold to put effort into my outfit' stage but it's been SUPER cold lately...and I hate cold weather. >.<



Photo bombing, w00t!


Panda also tried to rob me for my purse in a 'dark alley'. 
lol


One thing that I did practice out some more was applying bottom lashes, AND it was my VERY first time trying blush!

My eyes before the lashes:
(lmao this looks so scary hahaha  )

Afterwards:
Foundation:  Revlon Photo Ready Foundation in 'Cappuccino' 
Top lashes: Can’t remember =S 
Bottom lashes:
Sassi
Lips:  MAC lipglass in "Pink Poodle"  
Eyeliner:
Maybelline New York Eye Studio Lasting drama Gel eyeliner in "Blackest Black" with silver eyeshadow over Rimmel London Soft Kohl Kajal Eyeliner pencil in "Pure White" (for corners of eyes)
Blush: Maybelline New York Dream Bouncy Blush in "Hot Tamale"






I think the bottom lashes turned out pretty nicely again! I want to keep on practicing and applying them until I get them to be absolutely 100% perfect. 
As soon as I get the eye lashes right, I'll start working on the brows. ^_~











And this is the new shade of blush I bought:

I LOVE this blush!♥ It goes on so smoothly and it has such an awesome creamy texture! On top of that I'd say this is the first time I've bought a make-up product where the first shade was the one that worked and I didn't have to return it! Ah, yes. Winning. 


Besides all of this I've been preparing for the dollface meet/anime con, which I'm super excited about on saturday!!! I'm also kinda nervous too..hopefully it all goes well, and that I'm well rested. I haven't been getting enough sleep at all....ughhh -_-


That's it for now, my darlings! :3
