Weekend Journal | WONDERCON 2016

Saturday

Drove this weekend to Los Angeles to spend Easter weekend with my little sister before she went back to UC Santa Cruz. Our plans for the weekend had been set a month before, where Silvia (my sis) knew she wanted to attend this Wondercon event and was curious if Matt wanted to join her as well. One thing led to another and I ended up buying a ticket to the event as well. I wasn't really excited about it since this is more my fianee and sis kind of stuff but two weeks ago I found out that they would have an early realize of the Justice League vs Teen Titans following the same arc that the past three Batman animated movies have followed. If its one thing that I love from comics its anything Batman and Young Justice related since I have loved the animated arcs that have come out for those.

So Saturday was a full day at the convention. I had fun walking around with them and going to the panels but my definite highlight was going to see the premiere. I highly recommend the movie! I like the plot twists they put in it in regards to potential romances and it had really good humor as well. 

Sunday: 

Lazy day! Mom and I thought we would go shopping only to realize that most stores were closed for Easter Holiday so we just spend the day together and then in the evening Matt and I had to head back to SD. Fun little activity we have been doing with Matt on the drives over has been listening to Latin music to try and find songs we want for the reception. So far? After six or so hours we only have ten... We are trying to keep it clean and romantic but a lot of what has been on my playlist is not appropriate for a wedding i.e. about a broken heart. 

Oh btw! the new season of Daredevil is awesome! I've only seen four episodes so far but its good so far!

Just leaving this here...

So I have been in the lookout for a good powder foundation that won't be caked, has good oily control, and doesn't cling to dry patches.

I tried Make Up Forever's Demimatte on the recommendation from a Sephora employee. And although yes it looks amazing at the first application I find myself needing to blot before lunch and after leaving work. So that didn't works so well. 

Next I went back and forth in trying the Infallable powder foundation since the liquid form was so good to me. Unfortunately I couldn't find a color that matched me well. ( I should have known better I have the same problem with the liquid one but at least with that one I could mix it with other foundations already in my collection.)

I ended up rebuying my Maybelline dream Wonder Powder. I got a shade up since I thought my last powder was a hair light but this next color is a bit orange. Or it may be just me. Because I also placed an order for BH Cosmetic powders. I got #230 and #235, I searched both in my hand and I know that #230 leans slightly yellow but in my face it looks orange? At least in certain lighting. But anyway those powders (only got them $5 each because of a sale) are totally worth it!! I was worried about testing them out today cause I was going to be doing some light lifting and walking for walk but I figured what the heck. And OMG I only had to blot seven hours into wear AFTER the lifting and walking around outside for two hours. The shade selection isn't that great only 7 shades but if you can find your color I would say go for it!! (Get it here: http://www.bhcosmetics.com/products/bh-studio-pro-matte-finish-pressed-powder)

P.s sorry for the lack of pictures or links I am traveling a lot this weekend (look out for a journal in this weekend's adventures to make up for having a lazy noneventful weekend last week).

Weekend Journal | Lazy Day Sunday

This past weekend is one of those weekend where I totally would not have vlogged at all. Just because I was in PJs most of Saturday and all day Sunday.

Saturday:
Matt went to do the garden for Ms. B and I stayed home and did laundry/organize the apartment since Luz and Roberto were coming to watch a movie. Not going to lie I could have been more productive but I got to say that I wasn't that lazy either. Our apartment was clean for our guests, the only area I didn't tackle was a. the kitchen and b. the office. Both of which Matt has ultimate saying in. I enjoyed having frineds come over and even having someone else look with me at wedding center pieces for the table. We probably should have done more research but again: lazy weekend.

Sunday:
I should have not suggested we watch TV while eating breakfast but we hadn't finished an episode from Legends so Matt and I were curious as to how it was going to finish. Needless to say we spend most of the day in front of the TV. I noticed that Hulu had Naruto Shippuden and since I never technically finished watching the anime I was curious how they animated the last chapters. From there I wanted to watch Naruto: The Last, cause obviously I own it.... So yeah thats what we did these weekend. I wouldn't trade it for anything though cause all our other weekends seem busy for the next few months.
