Movie I'm Loving Now: Transformers

I didn't really watch the cartoons before. I am not a fan. I have no idea what the story is line. All I know is that there are robots who, well, transform. I went inside the cinema with a blank slate.

Well, I was in for a treat! I loved the movie! I loved the cast, the story, the way it was made, the fight scenes, the special effects and Josh Duhamel! I loved the way they gave the robots their own personalities. I found Bumble Bee so cute. I was really sad when I thought that he would have died. I loved the kind of cars they evolved into but I found the robot voice overs a bit too over bearing though. Good directing from Michael Bay. Glad he didn't let the fans down. Bumble bee is just too cute!
I wish I could bring him home! :)

I bought this on whim and am so happy I did! I want all the colors for myself now! This lipstick is so smooth and slippery on the mouth giving you that lip balm feeling only it's not!

Amongst all my eyeshadows, I love Elianto's Hot Blue the most! I really like Sephora's eye liners too.

Moonlight silver and a turquoise liner

These were just drugstore brands I picked up from Wal-Greens. They stayed on pretty well though. I'm happy with the buy.

I love this look. Line the under fo my eyes with Tealo. Who knew green and gold would look good together? I didn't.

The colors in this palette are all shimmery earthy colors which I love! It also has great staying power! They're so pretty!


Szechuan Chinese Restaurant

Szechuan food generally connates spiciness and all that pepper on the food. The food in this restau however was the least bit spicy. It's a great place to go to if you want to get good Chinese food that doesn't come from a box. Even better is that the food servings are meant to be shared!

Sesame Chicken

My favorite from everything we ordered. The sesame batter really made the chicken crisp and gave it an interesting flavor.

Cajun Shrimp and Scallops

This was good too, my only complaint was that there was too little shrimp and scallop compared to the amount of veggies in the serving.

Chicken Lo Mein

Good 'ol lo mein!

Beef with Stir Fried Vegetables

This was the only spicy dish among the 4. I enjoyed the vegetables more than I did the beef.

Octopus Japanese Fusion Restaurant

This is a quaint restau inBirch St, Brea, CA. They have huge servings here and give these bean appetizers which the other people with me liked and I didn't.

I got there "bento box" though they didn't call it that. What it is essentially is that you can mix and match 2 dishes from their list of viands for $8.45.

I got Japanese spring rolls with a house plum sauce and barbecue chicken. The spring rolls were really good and had a new twist from the ones I'm used to. The barbecue chicken was ordinary and forgettable.
