It's been too long!

I just finished my finals today so hopefully I can get back to blogging in stuff. Remember how I said I was gonna try harder????? Well, I'm trying.

So first off, I posted a new video on AddisonThe15th Channel on YouTube;

 

 

Go check that out!

 

 

Next order of business! I haven't posted any AddiUpdates in a while & I do not know when I am going to pick those back up again so in the meantime. Vampire Diaries fans; the Vampire Diaries mid-season finale is tomorrow night, along with Beauty & the Beast!

 

 

I'm going to have to DVR that because I have a Christmas dinner with some friends tomorrow, but I'm considering writing a review of the Beauty & the Beast show so far. We'll see, because I'd also like to start posting makeup tutorials and I do not really have time to do both.

For those of you who do not know what Beauty & the Beast is; it is basically a present day version of the classic tale, only the beauty is detective and the beast is a genetically altered ex-military guy who has kind of a Hulk complex because when he turns into a beast he cannot control himself. I've found it is more of a detective show than anything else, kind of like Bones or Law in Order only with more personal drama between the show's main characters, but it does have some sci-fi to it and a pinch of fantasy, I think. It stars Kristin Kreuk, so Smallville fans will like it.

 

 

And Jay Ryan (the beast) is from New Zealand, so his voice is awesome!

Another show I'm really excited about is the Carrie Diaries, coming to the cw in January.

 

 

So, that's all I've got for ya! Talk to you guys again very very soon! Bye!

Makeup Products I Bought This Morning

So my best friend got me an Ulta gift card for my birthday and of course I had to use immediately! She's awesome and I put the money to good use ;)
First thing I got that want to share with you guys is the Day, Night & Play 77 Piece Collection for only $19.99! It's amazing! It's a $200 value that you can get for $19.99 with a coupon I think you can find on their website (not absolutely sure, because I'm an Ulta member and I got a coupon e-mailed to me).
     
It comes in either red or pink & I got red cause the pink was too pink for me. Inside are a bunch of eyeshadow colors from Silk to Deep Sea. There are 9 lip colors next to the eye shadows, they're glossier. Please don't put them on your eyes. They are truely misleading. There is one at the end of every row of eye shadow. I think I like Verdigris the best. But there's a sparkly black I wanna try and deep blue Sapphire color I'm anxious to try.
     The 2nd item I bought was a NYX Roll On Shimmer in Green! This thing is amazing! I've wanted to get one of these for a long time and thanks to birthday money from my grandparents, I finally have one.
                      

                                     

Leesha does a tutorial and review with this product and some other products on xsparkage.com. Links below.

Another NYX product I bought today is Cream Eyeshadow in Gold. I wanted a gold that wasn't a powder so that when I do gold it will brighter and I think this will do the trick. I tried it out on the back of my hand and it was beautiful so I bought it.
                                
This stuff has a lip gloss brush, but it's eye shadow, trust me. Gold was the color I chose, but they have a wide variety of colors to choose from.

My final NYX product is more of a basic necessity for makeup, it's NYX eye liner. It's not super expensive, but it is good quality.

                                                                 

After I got this stuff at Ulta, I went over to Sally Beauty. They are having their Susan G. Komen for the Cure! benefit this month and every year I try to support someone who's supporting Susan G. Komen. Last year I got a bunch of grapefruit tic tacs and this year I got pink China Glaze nail polish. I don't know if tic tac is doing their fundraiser this year or not. Sally's is selling the China Glaze polish to help Komen for 4.99 you can get just a bottle of For the Cure polish by itself OR you can do what I did and get the Seche top coat/China Glaze Naked (Pink) for 7.99 and it comes with a little charm to show you helped benefit Susan G.

 

Finally the last place I visited this morning was Sephora where I got 2 more nail polishes and a birthday present from Sephora to me!

     

Both are Nails Inc. London and the first one up there is Cheyne Walk. That one was $9.50. & the other one is the wonderful magnetic nail polish which I will have to try very soon :) It's called The Strand and it was $16.
     If you are a member of Sephora, you get a birthday present every year from them and below is what I got!



Thanks for checking out the blog. I shall talk to you all again later! Peace!

Getting Into the Swing of Things

     Sooooo...I decided to start blogging again. I'm hoping it will stick this time, because I'm really bad at keeping up with stuff like this. I also decided to center it around the AddisonThe15th Channel, which is even worse, because the last time I posted a video was almost a month ago and the last time I posted an AddiUpdate was in August, BUT I am hoping that this blog will encourage me to start posting things more regularly.
     This blog will be very similar to the monthly AddiUpdates on Youtube except that it will be more randomly posted. I might do a weekly thing I'm not sure yet. But for now it is just going to be sort of a mesh of different things, like this week I'm going to fill you guys in on what I'm reading. I used to do this on AddisonThe15th, now not so much, but I'll start doing it more on here.
     I just read The Giver by Lois Lowry. I liked it, but I'm not going to say much about it, because it is highly recommended book and almost everyone has read apparently. It is about a twelve year old boy named Jonas and it is set in the future in a "Utopian" based society where everyone gets along and everything is the same and it is very interesting! It was a very good read! I enjoyed it and this blog timing is perfect, because Lois Lowry just released the fourth book this week.

 

 

Now I'm reading Cat O'Nine Tails by Julia Golding. The book is part of the Cat Royal series and it is amazing! I read the first book, Diamond of Drury Lane, in one day, I couldn't put it down!

I think there are seven books in the series and the most recent one just came out last year. I think the sixth one is actually a novella so it does not count? I'm on number four.                 

So, that is what I am reading. I'm dying of sleep deprivation so I'm going to leave you with one more thing!

Vampire Diaries returns this coming Thursday night! Don't miss the return of this jaw dropping show that constantly keeps you on the edge of your seat!

& I'm hoping to post an AddiUpdate for October, so subscribe to AddisonThe15th on Youtube to be notified as soon as I post it! Have an awesome weekend and God bless!
