Lovely Note #19

 My happiness has been really high lately, and it's probably because school hasn't started for me :D
Anyway, I've been really happy and throughout the summer I've realized what I and many other high school students will have to experience, and I want to tell you that you'll be fine.

School.
You'll begin to enjoy and love the daily things in school and home. You'll enjoy the teachers and you'll love some lessons and lectures. School isn't entirely horrifying, and you'll soon realize that. Friends help you get through things and they become important in your life. Memories turn into something beautiful.

The Achievements.
I had a lot of really negative criticism when I was younger, and that didn't help me at all. My self esteem decreased and I realized if I wanted to get somewhere and change the criticism, I'd have to do better and work harder. That led me to working harder, improving, and my parents and peers finally quieted with the rude comments and comparisons.

Final message for everyone reading this:

You'll be okay.

I haven't mentioned anxiety, stress, and many others yet. You can't really avoid those things, and sometimes you have to get through them. Once you do, you know you're okay. Other words like great, wonderful, good, are what you'd hear in a fairytale. You don't live a fairytale, you create it and that's what memories are. You're always feeling good in a beautiful memory. Sometimes, even more than okay.

Review: Laneige Water Sleeping Mask

From: Korea

What it is: An "Overnight Revitalizing Gel Mask"

Skin Type: for any type except for very acne prone skin 

Brand: Laneige 

     My lord, this product is absolutely amazing! It's the Holy Grail of sleeping masks.

It's restored moisture into my face and it's cool and relaxing in every way. First of all, the packaging is elegant. It also comes with a little spoon to keep the application clean and easy. The color of the overnight mask is a beautiful aqua mint and it smells amazing! It smells calming and very chill-like. I was afraid the strong scent would give me an acne outbreak, but it was fine! With acne prone skin, I would watch out though, because there's a chance of acne outbreak. The overnight mask has a watery consistency, so a little goes a long way. I don't even fill the whole spoon when applying. The smell is supposed to relax and calm you, and it really does! Or maybe I'm absorbed into thinking it should. xD Either way, beautiful and amazing product and will surely repurchase! Well, after I finish it since it would probably take me about a year to use it all up. xD

Application:
After applying toner and emulsion at night, scoop out your preferred amount (I usually use a spoonful and by spoonful I mean the application spoon that came along with this product and not an actual huge spoon xD) and apply it on your face, avoiding the eyes and mouth. Sleep with it on and in the morning wash it off and see moisturized, refreshed skin!

Packaging: 5 out of 5
Product: 5 out of 5
Price: 3.5 out of 5
(now I know that Laneige's products are usually on the expensive side, but I feel this product was really worth it!)

~I don't have pictures up yet, but I will upload them soon!~

Apologies, with Important Info

Hello, my lovelies~
     It's been way too long since I've made a post.. and I'm so sorry!  There's a lot of things that has been in my way =-= Starting now, my posts will publish every Monday and Saturday. If there is any future delay, I will definitely give a notice! For example, I visited a country that prohibited the use of Blogger a couple days ago and that of course stopped me from posting.
     My blog sometimes focuses on the health and beauty of people, both inside and out. So I will start doing reviews of different skincare/makeup! But because I have a huge love for foreign things, they'll mostly be from Korea or my hometown in China. If there's anything you'd like me to review, please tell me! I'd prefer them to be products from Korea or China. I will do these reviews unbiasedly and with my absolute opinion. Thank you to whoever is still occasionally looking at my blog! <3

Lovely Note #18

Hello my lovelies!!

I closed the blog to public viewers for a couple hours, because I got so fed up with my studying and homework that I got completely frustrated. And to make sure I couldn't post anything while it was so complicating, I shut it down for a bit. With the things that's been happening with my family, work, and everything else, I'm very confused and frustrated. If anyone is feeling this way, I know what you're dealing with and you should keep fighting like I have been! And please give me some time to be myself again and come back strongly into the world. Remember, everyone, you'll be okay! Whatever problems you have or whatever issues you're dealing with, it'll get better. Stay calm, deal with it wisely, and get through it. Also spring break is coming up, so i'm fighting until then ^^ The quarter is ending soon for some of you still in school so KEEP FIGHTING until then! I'll be rooting for you! It's just a simple answer: study well, think about what you should be doing, and do it. Procrastination is no joke once you've gotten into it! You've got this, my people! To everyone else, think, get to the solution, and do NOT get your head into a knot. Don't think of anything too complicating, think of the simplest answer that will keep you safe, healthy, and well. Do not think too hard about what you should be doing, and try your best!

-Sighs- Lemon convinced me to change the website to something more spring-like.. As a winter person, spring is highly distasteful. Well at least the background isn't so bad! I almost forgot, Lemon only posts in the morning. It's pretty hard to drag her out of her house at 4 in the afternoon because her deadline for her posts are due =-=

Anyway, for some of you, the school quarter is halfway through and I'm ITCHING to get all A's this year! It hasn't been easy, and everyone just seems like they gave up because the year is ending soon :p Everyone, stay focused! It's not as if your grades will stay okay if you don't try. I'm urging everyone to try their best! Message me for help on staying intact with your work, because it can get stressful. My email is lolidaysmail@gmail.com so feel free to contact! Good luck to all of you !!

~Morning Lemonade~ Now Introduced!

HELLO, EVERYONE! :D I'm the new blogger here, Lemony!! I know, not very original, but my middle name is Adeleine and my parents thought it was very cute to name me Lemon-Adeleine :3 The owner said she needed a bit of morning motivation here, so I was glad to help with this! Too bad Sophie won't agree to change the color of the font to yellow though ;-;

Eeekk, off topic!! Anyway, I understand the struggle of getting up in the morning, feeling the worse and either having to go to school or work.. but you're going to have to, aren't chu? >u< Oops, Sophie just poked me in the arm after reading that over my shoulder, hehe :3 But i'm here to help you with that! Every other morning, i'll be posting what I call a ~Morning Lemonade~!! I love lemonade, (hence my name) it's like a refresher. So every few days i'll be posting things to get you out of bed, get you moving, get you happy, much like a refresher. I don't want any moping, you hear? =^^= Might be one coming out tomorrow, as a morning person I'll definitely have time to post :D 

Lovely Note #16

Hello, lovelies!

These days, I haven't finished much of my homework and I'm really upset I haven't =-= I just can't start it, somehow! Like mentally, I seriously can't! I just get caught up in doing something else like going through the internet. I seriously have to start on working for once, because my grades aren't getting any better, heh :D Anyways, I really hope everyone is productive today, do something because you really should! (Unless you've been working since 7 in the morning take a rest, good lord! You deserve that.) I feel like I need a lot of motivation.. T_T and I'm guessing you all do too! There's a future post coming your way, about what i'm going to do with the lack of motivation around here! You all DO need it, and deserve all the motivation you get! So look out for that, and I hope you're all having a great day! Feel gorgeous and comforting with yourself, alright? Because you all deserve to be comfortable and loved <3 mwah C:

Lovely Note #15

Hello, my lovelies!

My parents lectured me on my test scores.. T_T My laptop and tablet is gone, so I'm just surviving with my phone and MP3 ^^ I hope everyone is keeping warm! The temps have dropped, so I'm surrounded by layers.

I've been watching lots of k-dramas and eating candy on Valentines Day because my singleness goes over and beyond C: If you're in a relationship, I hope you are happy and you are getting lots of love today!  If you're single, be proud of it because you don't need to worry about buying gifts :D Some advice to singles, don't worry and stress yourself over getting a relationship. Love will come naturally, so you shouldn't be thinking about finding your match. I personally like sitting on the couch and refreshing Tumblr for 2 hours xD but that's just my preference. Happy Valentine's Day, everyone!

Lovely Note #14

Oh dear.. The time of the month we girls ALL hate. If you're a guy, it's alright if you don't want to read this. But I'll just say, do not bother a girl on her period. She will lash out and pull every strength she has to make sure you know that this is serious. Girls.. I know what your going through and we will get through this together!! And I hope you have a few days left because as for me, I'm going through some rough times here.

By the way, I'm hiding out in the bathroom because my parents found out my test scores.. :D  I'm waiting for one of my parents to knock on the door and I'll make some lame excuse or something. I don't know, I'll figure things out. I hope everyone is doing okay, no worries yet! It's not the end of the year but to all you procrastinators, get moving because you don't have much time left!

Lovely Note #13

It's going to be snowing once again and even in the cold harsh temperatures, lack of fashion is no excuse! x)

Outfit #1:

-Comfy or soft sweaters

Fluffy or really comfy sweaters are warm and so cuddly and It's nice to wear in the winter! Go with whatever color you personally think is best. I like wearing a size bigger, as then it looks a bit longer and the sleeves can cover half my hand. Sweaters from Lauren Conrad are really great, so go search em up!

-Acid wash jeans or stonewash jeans

I have to be honest, these are really great to wear! It adds a bit of street style into it. 

-A pair of converse or a nice pair of sneakers

I love converse in every way, and they add a more casual look. 

Outfit #2: 

-A sweater dress 

I just love sweater dresses! Gray or white is a good color, and they look really nice for a more fall and winter sort of fashion. With a turtleneck sort of style around the neck, it looks warm and comforting. 

-A pair of leggings

Make sure the leggings are comfortable. Having bare legs with a sweater dress is just something I don't like in the winter, so wearing leggings is essential for me.

-Boots

Winter boots work really well, like the ones that look like the brands 'Uggs Austrailia' and 'Bearpaw' look are cute with this outfit. 

I hope you all are keeping warm this winter, and look great as well! I wish you a great Lunar New Year and have fun!

Lovely Note #12

Hey everyone! I hope your all surviving the winter, it's so cold out there! And if you live in Cali, lucky you. x)

Anyway, it's snowing here, and I just want to make sure you all are not extremely unprepared for any bad weather!!

-Charge ALL your technology and any means of getting a way to society! 

Trust me, this is a really good thing to do. I've got 3 battery cells all full, 2 laptops fully charged, a tablet, and my phone. xD Besides, when the snow falls, power cuts out and you'll be dying of boredom.

-Wear really warm clothing! 

Okay, maybe it's not a big fashion statement and I'm probably like most of you. I'd prefer to look good in the cold than rather cosplay as a giant marshmallow but honestly, when snow hits, you'd rather want to wear a huge bulky jacket! Lots of layers are best as well, but not too much because no one needs frozen eyebrows in January. 

(Say to a person "I like your kneecaps". Awkward, huh? xD Just thought this was really funny.)

-Prepare something else to do besides your laptop.

Okay, maybe all you really want to do is scroll through Tumblr. But honestly? Think of something else to do, draw, puzzles, you know, the typical. It may be boring at first, but give some things a try! 

-buy FOOD.

Oh lord.. this is a really big issue with me. One winter, my mom gave me like 20 dollars to get something from the grocery store, I bought 2 bags of chips, cola, and candy. I didn't know a storm was going to hit, so I spent my weekend just eating junk food. DON'T buy junk food. xD

Well, that's all about I can think of, maybe there's plenty more. Good luck to everyone this winter, and have fun in the snow!!
