Dinner at Moxie's + Dolly Wink Liquid Eyeliner

Tonight, I went out for dinner @ Moxie's for my friend's birthday dinner =)
She planned it together with her friend so there were 2 birthday girls tonight and there were a lot of people who came to the dinner, so we took up a section of the lounge area ~

I chose the Linguine Fresco, and it was pretty good, although not as filling =P


And here's their birthday cake! It's absolutely adorable, so I had to take a picture of it xD
(Note: It looked nothing like this anymore after cutting it up into 30+ pieces ~ i forgot to take a picture of the "after look" ^o^)


Anyways, it was a really good dinner and I met a lot of new people as well ♥ 

Outfit for the night =)

Dress: Liz Lisa


Also, before heading out, I was playing around with my Fuji Instax camera after replacing a new pack of film into my camera.

 
I think I should use my Fuji camera more often since I still have a few packs of film left and they're going to expire soon.  I totally forgot they had an expire date and left my camera in my drawer for a very long time.  I took it back out the other day after doing some room cleaning ~

I'm thinking of starting Tumblr as well.  There's so many great inspirations, such as: Pop Cutie and Helena, and it's a great place to share and view photos.  But I'll have to wait until I have more time on my hands, since I'm quite busy with school, work, and piano lately ~

I'm going to finish off this post with my favourite Dolly Wink Liquid Eyeliner.  It's my favourite because it literally stays on all day, without smudging or rubbing off.  It's also waterproof, so it stays on even on a hot sunny day or when I'm exercising.  

 

The packaging is extremely cute as well ♥ 
I really like all the Koji Dollywink and Candy Doll beauty products.  Although they are on the pricey side, the quality is always really good, and totally worth the extra bucks.  In addition, they're all by Tsubasa Masuwaka, my favourite model and idol ^o^

This eyeliner is definitely one of my HG products, and I'll continue buying this for a long time =)

My First Blog Post!

Now how should I start my first post? ~
I often wonder why it's so difficult to start writing something... like an essay or a paper...
I would stare into space and think and think... but still don't know how to start writing.
To me, that's probably the hardest part in writing something.  But once I get started, everything rushes into my head and it becomes much easier... ~

So here it is.  My very first blog post.  I've always wanted to start a blog, but never had a chance to.  Recently, I've been following a few blogs such as Ekimura's... (she's gorgeous! =P) and a few other ones that inspired me to start too.  I'll treat it as an online journal...just something to spend some spare time on ^o^ ~

Anyways, today was like any other day.  Started off my day with Japanese class.  I got my oral test back... and despite the teacher repeating over and over again that everyone did horribly... I actually did much better than i thought xD.  At least now that mark will balance off my writing composition test mark haha ~

After that, I had English literature class, and then headed home after to get ready for my student club's (CSA's) formal dinner.   

After getting ready...

Circle Lenses: EOS Jewel Series in Brown





And this was what I wore to the dinner... 


Dress: Snidel, Shoes: DreamV


By the way, this was my first time wearing these circle lenses: EOS Jewel Series in Brown.  I was a bit skeptical at first because I usually wear 14.0mm circle lenses and this was my first time wearing 14.5mm ones.  But they were very comfortable and they were so pretty!  I wore them for 8+ hours and they didn't feel dry at all =)

Here's some model pictures of the EOS Jewel Series (G-208).  There are 5 colors in total, and I purchased the brown one ^^ ~







For dinner, we went to The Helm Restaurant on Howe St., beside the Holiday Inn.  The ambiance was really nice.  Lighting was dark, with dim lights and candles (very romantic and mesmerizing!).  Decorations were really nice too.  After taking pictures together, we sat down and waited for our meal to start.  It was a set menu for us last night.  We started off with a delicious creamy soup, which unfortunately, I forgot to take a picture of.  We then moved on to an entree: ravioli with a creamy sauce.




For the main course, we had a choice between beef and fish, which I chose beef (of course!)


Braised Bison Shortribs with Potato Rosti and Lamb Bacon Braised Cabbage


For dessert, we had a chocolate brownie topped with peanut butter and banana...




It was a tad bit too sweet for me (which is unusual haha xD), so I didn't end up finishing it.  But I really enjoyed it nonetheless.  Service was really good.  The waiters and waitresses were super friendly and constantly added water for us.  There's a bar there as well, and the drinks were pretty good.  The blasting music added a touch of excitement and energy to the dinner.  Overall, I'll give it a 8/10.  The only thing I didn't like about it was that the food came out very slowly.  The whole dinner took 3+ hours.  Other than that, I'll still recommend this restaurant.  Delicious food and good service!
