Whale season

I went whale watching for extra credit in my Marine Bio class. I am surprised I learned a lot, considering the dreadful windy and rainy weather (although I did come well prepared with my portable chair and rain coat.)

8 AM did not go down too well for me, but the view eased my puffy eyes - still beautiful, despite the gloom.

My tallying chart

Also, I saw Big Miracle and if that is still playing in theaters near you, I highly recommend it. It was so touching and adorable...go green peace!

the jazz age

I went Club Puna Jazz last Saturday to support my talented friends playing instruments. Our school cafeteria transformed into a classy night club. I love that everyone was dressed up, and could strut their dance moves for the occasion.

This is my favorite dress in my closet right now, but I could never find an appropriate occasion for it. I thought it was perfect for the night, no?

I love the black!

UH Jazz Band

Dress forever 21, heels Vince Camuto.

I found this ticket in my bag from the AVANTI concert from two summers ago in Finland! My uncle played piano, but I can't believe it's still in my bag.

french tips on kombucha

I got my nails done for free at the nailery in Honolulu. This was for a fashion show promoting goods for prom. It was a lot of fun and more pics to come.

 So good! Kombucha is a fad that has discontinued. I try to drink it when I can, it's really healthy and good for you. I had to sweeten it a little bit but my mom loved it.

I had to walk a million blocks (about 45 minutes) to get to the salon because I was on foot and thought I knew where it was but didn't. I got there 15 min late :( but it was fine. I was really hot and uncomfortable, and thought I needed a reward for the stressful hour that had just passed. 

Blood Bank

I know this is vulgar and the polar opposite of fashion, but I had to share a very memorable moment in my life. My first donation of blood! I signed up thinking it'd be fun and a pretty cool experience, but I didn't realize that I had to answer question after question! Finally, when they settled me in a seat the nerves kicked in. I was shaking all over! Before I knew it the needle was in and I was pumping out a quart of blood!

They told me to squeeze this every 5 seconds

My blood in a baggy!

30 minutes later....

La mode

One of my favorite outfits, including my favorite sparkly bandeau! Pictures taken after dinner at Chibo at the Hilton Hawaiian Village.

White lace shoulder cardigan from Earth, Music, Ecology, Sparkly pink gold bandeau from forever 21, black skirt from american apparel, and pink purse from sa-che.

All Tatted up

For my friend Graces bday, she did hennas at her house! We went a little crazy with it, but it won't last forever. 

My favorite animal, the giraffe!

I told Grace (who is a fantastic artist) that she could do whatever she wanted on my back. She drew scenery of the beach - so pretty! I loved it.

MacMakeUp

Did some fantastic shopping at Mac.

Some of the things I bought....

My favorite eyeshadow, I use it almost everyday!
