Makeup Monday :: My First MyGlam Bag!

Hi Everyone! Hope you all had a wonderful weekend. I spent most of my weekend doing homework, studying for finals tomorrow =X , my nieces birthday party, and running errands mostly. 


So according to the title, if you haven't heard of MyGlam.. let me fill you in. Basically it's another one of those monthly beauty subscription thingies (think of birchbox, but better.. i had birchbox, but cancelled it after the first box i received).. It was created by Michelle Phan.. and it's also $10 a month, and they come with some full sized items! 


I had originally signed up for MyGlam bag towards the end of December, which meant I would be getting January's Bag.. and they typically send out all the glam bags around the 10th of every month. This month they were a bit delayed. I originally got an email confirmation stating that my bag had shipped on (this was on Friday the 13th lol)... and so I was following it and was super excited... then I received another e-mail On Saturday evening that my bag had shipped again, but noticed it was different tracking number.. so I was like wth?

Throwback Thursday :: remember when...

For those of you who know me, know I had moved youtube channels quite often (lol!) But I thought it'd be kind of cool to reminisce about one of my first youtube videos, when I had the blog/youtube name "RandomnessWithKhris"



I can't believe that was me before and how soft spoken I was :) My makeup skills still need some improvement, but it's nice to see how i've grown.. can't believe i've been on youtube since 2010 (from randomnesswithkhris) .. but it's all a growing and learning experience. 

What are some of your first blog posts/videos you remember? :)

Mommy Monday :: Visit my Mommy Forums!

For some of you who have followed me from the very beginning (of when I started this blog) may/or may not have known that I had created my own mommy website (created it 2005/2006).


It's an online forum/community for mothers (expecting moms, single moms etc) from all around the world, to come together and discuss parenting issues, pregnancy issues, talk about breastfeeding, baby food and so much more. 


My website is called WorldForMoms.com and it's co-operated by a good friend of mine Nicole (visit her blog, she's awesome!) I made the site when I had my first born because of so many issues I was having during my pregnancy, I had no one to talk to (being the first of my friends to have a baby). So I decided it was a great way for me to reach other women in my position.  So If you know any moms, soon-to-be moms it's a great outlet to chit chat when you are having one of those mommy days and want to pull out your hair :P


We also hold a lot of contests and giveaways on there, and would love for you ladies/moms to join in on the fun! We hope to expand and reach more people, so if you could spread the word, i'd be forever grateful!


Here are some pictures of my Mommy website:

(PIC HEAVY) Huge Collective Haul :: Xmas gifts, MAC, Sephora, Ulta & Drugstore!

So it's been such a long time I feel since my last major haul.. with Christmas and what not, I thought it'd be perfect to do a blog post (and a video to come) on my Haul from the past few months! :) 


(Warning :: Sorry the pictures are all over the place/sideways, for some reason when I save it, it's upright, but when i post it here, it's sideways or upside down :( )


So let's start with the bigger items and move our way down the line..


Naked 2 Palette
My dad got me a gift card to spend, so of course I had to choose this palette when it came out (i'll do a separate review/comparison with the original naked palette)

Gym Session :: 01/02/2012 :: upper body

So.. all the people that had their New Years Resolution to start to get healthy.. made their appearance at the gym yesterday.. which was really quite frustrating lol.. I don't mind if your there to actually workout, but I swear, there were two girls that were hanging off machines and touching machines and giggling, laughing.. it was so annoying! 


but anywho, we were able to work out.. took a little longer than usual since there were more people..


I ended up doing Chest/Back, while Christian & His friend Rick ended up doing Shoulders/Back.


I'll post his workout first.

Gym Session :: 01/01/2012 - it's a leg and bicep kinda day

Happy New Year Everyone! I can't believe how fast 2011 came and went. Now it's 2012 and let's start the new year off right! 


So that's what Christian & I just did. We went to the gym with his friend Marlon. It was rather nice that it was pretty empty when we arrived, so we were able to get a lot of things done.

I'll split up this gym session in two (Christian's workout & Mine).. starting out with a picture from our workout! :D

(I'm 27 weeks & 6 days pregnant here)
