Free Bare Escentuals Matte from Sephora

Well almost, this is crazy I tell you. When you add Bare Escentuals bareMinerals SPF 15 Matte Foundation - Light at Sephora and make sure that it's the color LIGHT and check out with ANY other item by clicking on Canadian Checkout, the total of the bare mineral will be 0.01CAN Each! It's 28$ retail. It's the first time it's good to be Canadian aha. It's probably a glitch so you better order fast.

The shipping is 10$.

I need more Zara in my life

I think that Zara is an exception store where I always find something (a lot) that I like. That is if there was no purchase power constraint I would never walk out of the store empty handed.

Some pieces from their F/W 09 Collection.

WHAT DO DO, WHAT TO DO?!!!!!!!!

I'm so bored these days I don't know what to do anymore so I end up eating every couple of hours and I can't stop myself from going into the kitchen to look for food even if I'm full. Since I returned to school, my schedule has been messed up and my sleeping patterns are not what you would consider healthy either. I think that if I had to choose between work and school, I would choose work over school any time. Some other people prefer school more, I never understood that.

These are my snacks. Hey, at least it's not Chips + Coke!



Seaweed salad, I just discovered this and I love it. I can eat tons of it and not getting tired. I don't know how to prepare it though.


Vedgetables with Dips. I never knew that you could eat brocoli raw since we always cook them!



Oh ya , my attempts to do nail art, I have abnormal nails, fat and chubby, must be my dad's genes.





Lindt Thins! They're so good. I hate dark chocolate but this doesn't taste bitter at all.

The Zara Shirt/Dress thingie that I wanted a while ago but it only went down to $39.99 which I didn't want to spend. Last week however, while browsing through Zara, I found it hanging hidden between the nonsales clothes and it was marked down to $19.99 from $69.99, there I just had to grab it!


Olivia Boutique Sandals, $9.99 on sale. Summer is over but what the heck, why not?!


And this is what I got from the American Apparel fleamarket sale. 3 hoodies 15$ each, the white drawcords are missing though and the blue one had a defect. There was a hole because it wasn't well closed so I had to sew it. I'll probably going to give it to the bf.XD

Black dress hoodie?! Size Large ahaa.

Value Village September 14th - Extra 50% off! (Canada)

It's the perfect thrifting time tomorrow if you love thrifting and have the time. I wasn't very successful yet maybe because I can't stay there for too long due to the store's smell. I might pass tomorrow after class if I'm not dead tired and feel like going. But then again, thrifting alone is not so fun I suppose. I seriously need a shopping buddy since my friends are not so into fashion and shopping in general hmm.

Guess Warehouse Sale Montreal 2009

And another summer has gone by...

I'm nostalgic that summer is over but at the same time I'm glad that Fall is here. My summer hasn't been eventful as a certain someone is not here but I didn't feel alone as I was either working or was hanging out with friends.

The fireworks - Actually I didn't see a single one this year except for the one when Quebec was shooting where we stopped in the middle of the street to see it. My friends find fireworks boring, I still like going to watch it, maybe I'm getting old. I remember those times where we used to go almost every week, meeting up in Chinatown then hang out there, walking to Old Port and eat buns there to wait until it finally starts.

okonomiyaki - Japnese pancake. It looks delicious doens't it? I don't know how it's supposed to taste like but I think ours wasn't fully cooked and smelled too much like fish.




Matsuri - Matsuri is a japanese festival held yearly at Montreal's Old Port. It's the first time that I went there. It was blooding hot on that day and we went when the sun was rising the highest so it wasn't a good idea. I still enjoyed it, I didn't see much from the shows but I loved the sushi there. It's freshly prepared and costs only 3$ per box. The wasabi actually tasted like real wasabi. You can rent a Yukata for free for 1 hour there and they put it on for you. I couldn't breath because of the bow, it's very tight >___<. Random home made food XD.
I love bulgogi!

BBQ ribs at a friend's house. I ate like a pig.




And here are my last purchases of the summer. I've been on a shopping ban since then, not voluntarily.

Zara Flower shirt and striped blazer. $9.99 and $29.99

Zara Shirt, hanako - now we have the same shirt =D $7.99

And lastly THE BARGAIN BUY OF THE YEAR. The infamous Zara cream blazer for $19.99 from $149 in my size XS from Carrefour Laval. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw it, I thought it must have been a price mistake or something. Maybe it was indeed as the other ones were still $49.99. I find it so unfair that there's different prices on the same items depending on which Zara you go to.

Since then I didn't buy anything, good girl.

H&M 20% off on higher price of two items

H&M is having a 20% coupon from September 7th - 13th on the highest priced item of two items. I think last time it was 20% on a single item. Still good to buy accesoires as they almost never go on sale.

Link for coupon: http://files.hm.com/coupon/2009/en_CA_2C_17003247_OnlineCouponFall2009_TBC_1.pdf

The promotion is valid for Canada, US, Europe and Asia I think.

It's a crazy mad house

Forever 21 actually opened in Montreal today (yesterday when you look at what time it is now) already and let me tell you, I've never seen anything like this. It's even worse than Boxing day! The line to pay was going all around the store on both floors and people actually actually stand there and wait. The store has two floors, the upper floors has their special collection for parties I think and the lower floor has all the other items. It's pretty big but it looks so messy already. Now I understand why people don't like to shop at F21.


The prices were very reasonable and the quality doesn't seem so bad. Now the problem is that every girl is going to run to F21 to buy clothing instead of UB or Costa Blanca or other teen stores. Costa Blanca is just beside F21 and it was so empty and they just moved there. I feel sorry for them.


I didn't get anything today as I didn't want to stand in line and I had to meet friends to go eat in chinatown.

Taken with my crappy cellphone:

Forever21 Opens on September 5th in Montreal!!

Finally, the opening date of Montreal's Forever 21 Store at Les Ailes De La Mode is revealed. F21 is officially going to open on Saturday, September 5th 2009. How long have you been waiting for this day? I know I did. I'm kind of excited. Supposedly, there's going to be gift cards for the first 300 clients. Are you going to go on the first day?
