Competition numero tres!

Competition yesterday!
Only one left....
I regret not going out to dinner afterwards with the upperclassmen;i didnt want to feel out of place or anything cause they were pretty much all seniors, also no moeny and i didnt want to ask for a ride either. but with only one or two more oppurtunities, i want to go! they're my friends and like, D:
but i love you guys! <3
Its gonna be se different next year without the seniors, and ill be considered expierinced. I soooo could dare less if marching band puts my social status down, its given me a ton of family. Not lame friends who you talk to only when you sit next to them; but friends that have seen my at my worst, at my best, after an 8am to 8 pm practice all stinky and sweaty, all nice looking on my way to school, have shared food or money with me so i could eat, who've made me laugh on a daily basis, who think i look good in my glasses when i dont think i do, who've taught me so much this year.

Workout Makeup/Sweat proof + Randomness

Ill update with a picture laterr;

but with practices in the summer, and feeling naked without makeup in public (anyone else like this?) i had to come up with a way to look like im not wearing makeup, but to cover up any skin issues, and enhance what your momma gave you.

So! This look wont sweat off unless (like yesterday) the heat index is above 105.

Start with a clean face pleasee!! Ik we all hate getting up at 6am for your 7 oclock practice, but washing really does help. Tone, and moisturize (i use aloe when i know im going to be sweating later)

1.)BB cream! Missha M Perfect Cover has spf 40, and also is the only bb cream ive used so i cant reccomend another one, but this one really does work. It has great coverage and really does what it says. Then powder;;actually just do your preferred skin care. But this tend to work great and takes 2 seconds.

2. Tight line your eyes - using wter proof liner! I found rimmel london works well ands cheap. Just be sure to use a little line - too much and the extra just runs.
Extra: If you have blue eyes,try a dark blue. Green, dark green. Brown, use black orr dark brown - basicly take your color and find the closest thing to black in it(: It really brings out any color in your eyes or makes them shine.

3. White eyeliner!! Itll help keep the top in place, and make your eyes so much brighter.

4.Mascara timee - your gonna need to use a water proof one. The yellow volumizing Maybelline NewYork (Volume Express?) works well.

Hair in a pony and your sett!!(: No shadows,etc. Eyebrows - stay away from shadows but if you need to fill yours in then do your best to make it lightt.This makeup helps make you look pretty - but no one can scoff at you for wearing makeup, and it wont just sweat right off. Save the bottom eyeliner for school - or if practice is after school then you might factor that into your makeup routine in the morning.

Have fun at the gym, running, sweating, being part of the team. Cause remember, your only as strong as your weakest link(:

PS if you have a sunburn,use cold water and use aloe as a moistruizer - but i wouldnt use toner! it dries my skin out - but whatever floats your boat(: Sunscreen is soo important for your skin! I normally hide from the sun if i can to protect my skin, but you obviously cant do that if you have practice. So suck it up, take the tan youll inevitably get butt using uva/uvb protection will help(:

AYABIE DISBANDING?!

Ayabie has disbanded. D= D= D=

They were the second japanese band (and vkei) that i ever discovered, with their single TheMe.
Aitakute... Rikkaboshi is always on my mp3 playerr.
And their newest single Dramatic, the song Kimi Dake wo Utsushite would get stuck in my head all dayy. They are.. were.. one of my top 3 bands.)=

I mean, i kinda wondered what was gonna happen once Aoi went solo. Everyones gonna continue as a band, and Aoi has gone solo... i like their pre-major work, and love their major work. But i guess if its best for them, its best for them. Goshh.....this kinda got me in a >:\ mood now.>.< Hope both people will continue to do well.

Other than that.....
Band Camp was amazing! You cant really sum it up..you find yourself dripping sweat, rooming with a girl you barely know but by the end of the week are best friends. Your musical ability builds, your calves grow twice their size, you lose 5 pounds, people are dropping like flies off the field when the heat index reached 105, you become a part of this big group of people, while keeping your own little group. You meet all the seniors, juniors, and sophmores and can become friends with them without getting a wtf look. You work your butt off to discover the food is terrible. You wake up at 6 am and go to sleep after midnight, your other roomate in the conjoined room across the bathroom takes hour long showers so you come up with plans to get it before her. You just......ahhh it was definatly a fun expierince.

Plus..TAX FREE WEEKEND!!!(= Loaded up on some binders, paper, and clothes!!!! I just got a few camis, a pair of sweatpants, 3 pairs of jeans (spent 28$ for 3 pair - good deal no?), and some acessories. OH! and this black studded vest - think Minzy in 2NE1's I dont care vid, except it doesnt have lego like blocks over it. I don't have a single thing like it lol - ill probably wear it sparingly. Maybe going shopping today too - i have basic school supplies though and the teachers havent sent their seperate lists...so guess ill just use common sense for it haha.
My schedule kinda stinks D= Core classes, PE, Seminar, and Band. =\ And at the freshman orientation thing (its called Cats camp...its basically three hours of touring the school and meeting other freshman.) was sorta useful - but none of my marching band friends or older school friends had the same classes as me.

Black Cat, MASQUERADE

So this new band Black Cat looks like its gonna be amazing :D
their single "Resurection of the color blue" (i think) is realesing 7/25
blehh but because their new i think its only gonna be released at their shows, and they wouldnt sip internatinoally anyway)x
but the guitarist has the same bday as me :D (9/30)
hahaha check out their 30 second clip on their hp:
http://www.black-cat.me/p/
they look like their gonna be amazing!! cause i love their look,music, and the singers voicee
ah well\= i'll wait a few years for them to get more fans lol
oohh maybe cdjapan has something
(they all have amebas if you look under profile - no pics yet though except a group one so idk whose who for guitar)x
The music sounds really good considering they started in april. Clothing and hair is very visual kei;i didnt see any too extreme makeup on them in the video. Overall very nice affect.


Another band; MASQUERADE
their not new ;they've actually been around for like 3 years
loveee their single pisera x pisera :D all their songs are pretty cool though lol
http://www.youtube.com/user/MASQUERADEchannel
thats their YT;they have a video adverstising for their live in september. they should come to america =D
http://www.masquerade-web.com/
and thats their web

they released a new single Sweet Rain Ruby Sky 7/7 and im pretty sure thats the song they used in their concert ad video on their channel. id def. go check them out yall ;D

Their music is kinda pop,rock,electronic. its a very unique sound though;and its just the two of them as official members of the band, Hayato (Vo.) and Kei (Guitar).
You cant really tell from their cd cover, but, clothing wise, its very visual kei =D yayy hahaha makeup wise though its pretty natural. Both use circle lenses, but no crazy makeup .
They both have amebas and gree(<-- never heard of gree till now xD) if u look at their profiles. Their website is pretty modern/good(:

彩冷える- 会いたくて ~ これは歌手のあまいとてもです(:


^
彩冷える- 会いたくて ~ これは歌手のあまいとてもです.((:
orr
ayabie - aitakute - this singer is tooo sweet.(:

my japanese is def. improving considering i started studying Tae Kim's guide. His lessons are for much more modern talk;the place i go the child teacher (if your highschool or younger) teaches formal japanese =\ but the adult teacher teaches more modern? lol my teacher still says wo instead of o! hahaha but shes a good teacher

Ayabie!!Love them from before they were major; and now. I think their styles are both so different, you can't really compare pop and indie vk.  It's an honor for an artist to go major, and lets them get easier acess
to venues,etc.
Same with THE KIDDIE. (Their quality of music, while slightly changed, is still good!) I'd kill for any merchandise haha. I really want a kiddie shirt =\
I'e translated all of mikus twitter recently on my LJ
Edit: ayabies irodori live shows,  0010101.
LOVE. IT.
Aoi has an incredible voice range - and a truly amazing and unique one at that.
