My First Photoshoot as a Makeup artist
I was fortunate enough to be invited to be the Makeup Artist for some Beauty shots for my Friend. He needed to see my work, and how well it shows on camera.
The concept for this shoot, is just natural beauty.
This was such a great experience, and probably something I would never forget.
My hobby is finally getting recognized the way it should

WDGG: Anime Convention ACEN 2011
WDGG stands for WHERE DID GRACE GO? I will hence use this as a shorty cut name to my little escapades.
This past weekend was just too hectic. The Biggest Anime Convention in the Midwest happened last May 20-22. It was 3 days of just ANIME! I had an opportunity to go on a Saturday, because I heard among the 3 days, the second one is the best to go.
My Fiance and I said that we were going there at 7 am, get there by 8 and get in line to buy our badges. Typical of us, we never leave on time, we left at 7:45 got there at almost 9 am. The line was already half a mile long. I'm not even exaggerating. When we got inside the building, there was another line. It took us probably close to 45 minutes waiting there again. It would have been faster if I brought cash with me.
I'm taking notes for my next visit =)
Everyone was almost cosplaying, I would have but I didn't know that the convention was that weekend, until 2 days before. So I will do it next year!
While in line, I already spotted The 4th Doctor Who! I was going gaga over this hahaha
Because when you yell "Hey Doctor!" This guy would actually turn to you and talk to you. Same thing with other Cosplayers. They were all in character it was amazing.
My Fiance and I met up with some friends, and also bumped into some. The whole time, I felt like we were just trolling the Market(where they sell anime merchandise). We kept looking for a hotter version of some anime characters we like. It was a fun-filled day.
HERE ARE SOME OF THE PICTURES
The soap bubble, which was this huge party in one of the Hotel's Ballroom was just a waste of time, it took me two turns in line to get in, it was ridiculous. The only good thing that probably happened in the bubble was the Pre-Party we had at the hotel room of our friend. Was buzzing a little bit when we got to the bubble, it just all went away when you start smelling 2 day old no shower people.
I can't wait for next year. Also I will cosplay this time around!

First Swap Ever with ThePopHeir
Here is my thoughts about my recent swap with the PopHeir, or as I call him KD. I was at first a bit skeptical, because I was not sure about the safety.Because I was talking to some stranger and gave him my address so he can send me makeup. I trusted the guy, and he did the same way.
Because we trusted each other so much, we both were happy that our swaps was a success.
I would love to get to do this again with you! I am also happy to know that you liked the stuff I sent ya!

NYX $1.20 SALE DRAMA!
NYX was having a huge 12 hour sale starting today at 12pm PST and ends exactly 12 hours later. The sale started at 2pm Central time.
NYX is celebrating 12 years of being in business.
This sale was amazing. Almost everything was only $1.20 and there is a limit of two shades per item.
Example: You can get 2 Jumbo eyeshadow pencil in milk, and you can get 2 more Jumbo eyeshadow pencil of a different shade.
Also this sale was limited only to US, continental. They didn't even include CANADA which was weird.
Nobody was able to log in onto our NYX accounts because the site was down. Minutes before the sale started. I was still able to log in and look around. So i turned to the official Facebook Page and Twitter to get some updates from NYX and some from customers.
Everyone just bombarded the NYX FB wall. Cursing, Boycotting, and basically hating on NYX.
Nyx did say that they were having difficulties, and we understand. Everyone's question was why NYX did not anticipate the traffic that the website got today. Because of the huge amount of people trying to get on there. IT CRASHED!
3 hours later....
The announced that they are online and ready. I still got a SERVICE UNAVAILABLE page. I kept refreshing my tabs, and i finally got it. It probably took me at least half refreshing each tab. After all that, I finally was able to submit and purchase and order.
So I immediately turned to facebook and let the others know that I got it. I was called a liar, and a nyx employee faking a purchase. They asked for proof, and I gave it to them. It is up on NYX's FB Page.
I still can't get over the fact that, people are so rude! I only went on facebook to let the others that are waiting, that there was hope. Our patience paid off, but in return I was called a LIAR. How cruel can yo be?
I gave them a screenshot of the Order confirmation to shut their pie holes up. At least there we're few good people who were happy about my order.
Note to myself, If there is any sale like this ever, I wont announce it to the world that I made it through and made my order.
Don't worry I will post an entry/ video haul of my purchases once they arrive.
They did extended the sale til tomorrow noon PST. So please visit their FB page or Twitter for updates. The website is still down at times, but if you are patient like me, you might get lucky.

IM ENGAGED!
So after going out/seeing/dating each other for almost 5 years, I am officially engaged. Our engagement is probably not as typical as others where guy kneeling on one knee, hands the girl a blue box and asks her had. Mine kind of started out differently.
I'm safe and comfortable
'cause you are wonderful
it feels natural to be around you
you've made it possible
you're wonderful
I just think its perfect, because He did tell me that whenever he says this song is playing, it always reminds him of me. Oh well two years is still far ahead, but I’m scared that it may come around too quick!
Thank you for all the greetings!!
xoxo,
Grace
It was one of our usual evenings where we watch tv, have dinner and just chill out.
I was not really in my best mood that night, some how in the middle of our conversation, my dear beloved boy friend takes my hand and asked me to marry him. The first thing that came out of my mind was “are you serious?” He said “YES”. I started crying and I kept saying “YES! YES!”
The unconventional situation is that, he did not have a ring, and I still said yes.
To me a ring is just a material thing that symbolizes your current status. As long as he asked me, that’s all that mattered. We even talked about getting married at a the courthouse just to get it over with. (this was before the engagement) I had the opportunity to pick out the ring and of course the size was right. When it arrived, he placed it on my finger. IT WAS PERFECTION! Not too big and not too small. Again, it was PERFECT!

We told ourselves that two years would be a good timing, but we are really taking our time planning this wedding. We started with our entrance song, and a first dance. My first dance song choice is You by Kazami which is from the anime Samurai Champloo.
Here’s a little sample of the chorus:
