Weekly iPhone photo diary~

Hello~ みんな元気ですか？

Christmas is already around the corner and the year 2011 is almost over, gosh the time passes by fast! as you might noticed I have been getting lazy in taking a real photos with my DSLR,,, its sitting in the corner dusting away.. :sigh: =__=;;

but yes the iPhone comes in handy most of the time and I do get lazy in grabbing the dslr but one of my new years resolutions will be "get back into photography!" so please be patient with me, I blame the cold temperature makes me not wanna do anything... lol ^^;;

OH I will be going on a much needed mini vacation this weekend starting tomorrow to Chicago!! really excited found a kaiten zushi *conveyor belt sushi* place!! If you have any suggestions on cool places to visit in Chicago please let me know!

Here is another weekly iPhone diary~

My first ever real Fraser fir christmas tree~

zach insisted he wanted a real tree so we got it but I always feel bad for the tree.. cut off just to be decorated for christmas ;__:

some decorations I got via Target lol Hey I live at Target nation here in MN

Decorated tree~ the theme: Candies and bows!

The tree is pretty big and fat so all the small decoration disappeared into the tree lol

My crazy new growth that I need to color but been super lazy to do so... D;

random doodle... I need to pick up my pencil and draw more often, I forget how fun it is to draw n_n

Zach's crazy obsession: Vitamix

we decided to finally get the Vitamix after many debate on why he needed it... me: " why does a stupid blender cost so much,, its just a blender!!.. o_0" his excuse: " you came make just about anything, it has 7 year warrenty and also we can be more healthy with having this" guys logic lol

Gross green drink zach made.... ~D; Zach" its really good!! try it!"

Mint nail polish comparison~

Just a small comparison

Been pretty lazy with applying nail polish lately but if I do I have been addicted to wearing minty shades~ haven't had much time to buy other mint shade nail polish but once I get more will make sure to do a comparison :)

I lined it up with light to dark shades, the HK polish is the lightest out of the three with more on a pastel blue-ish shade, the SH I would say is the true mint shade out of the 3 and Orly polish are more on the aqua shade out of the 3 shades~

consistency:

HK is the runniest out of the 3, thin consistency requires 3 coats to achieve full opacity.

Nice consistency not to runny not to thick easy to apply, need only 2 coats to achieve opacity

Semi thick consistency, a little bit on the gooey side but only need 2 coats to achieve opacity

with 3 coats

with 2 coats

Overall:

I LOVE SH mint sorbet the most long lasting and fast drying polish out of 3 with the right shade of mint and the price doesn't hurt either! ^__^

well that was it for this post~

please let me know what is your favorite mint polish as well? ♥

XOXO
