A time of self reflection
Alright, I'm about to show my weird conflicting interests. First I'm going to talk about makeup. Then my favorite sport. Yeah, you'll see.
As you all know I am going to Disney World in 21 days. (squeeeeeee!) And while I'm excited about that for multiple reasons, one of the big ones is that Rebecca (my bff whom I am going to visit) is taking me shopping while I'm down there. And Orlando is a big city. Which means..dun dun dunnnnn...SEPHORA!! I need Urban Decay right now. So bad.
I've gotten some new stuff at Victoria's Secret lately, but I still want more. I decided to try out their eyeshadow primer, but it applied very wet and made my eyes feel a little oily, so I'll still be getting some of that at Sephora, I L-O-V-E Urban Decay's Primer Potion. As for VS though, I love my lipsticks from there, they all apply wonderfully and don't bleed. The new collection that they have out is definitely worth a look as well. It's called Jungle something-or-other and it's amazing. The products are all mineral products and the color payout is fantastic, especially for the Jungle Heat palate. I bought that one, so I know. What really impresses me though is the fact that they have a lipgloss with spf 15. I bought it specifically for that reason. haha
The main reason that I want to pay a visit to Sephora though, as I mentioned before, is that I'm all out of primer potion, and they have it in this kick ass new color (which is ONLY available at Sephora) that I think I have to have. It's called Eden, and It's going to be amazing for summer. I mean, he word "tawny" is in the description on Sephora's website. How much more awesome can it get? I think that getting that, the primer box set, a pocket rocket lipgloss (see one of my previous posts for the deets on that little nugget) and an eyeshadow or 2 will subdue the urge to shop so much. I might even check out some of the Lancome products that Michelle Phan uses. :) I will most definitely update when I get back with pictures and deets on what I actually get.
**Now, on to the polar opposite of makeup.**
My favorite sport is MMA. For those of you out there who don't know what that stands for, get with the program. Mixed Martial Arts is the fastest growing sport out there right now, and for good reason. It's an amazing sport that takes tons of dedication and years of training to compete in. The fights are a one-on-one battle, so you get a level of excitement from it that you can't from team sports - no not even football. Check out the UFC's website for any more information on rules, training, or fighters.
Anyways, tonight I registered for a contest that it's basically impossible for me to win, but that would totally make me piss myself if I did. If you win, you get round trip tickets to Vegas, front row seats to UFC 116, and you get to hang out with Dana White (the president of the UFC) who is just fuckin' awesome. You also get to meet the ring girls, but I don't give a flying fuck about that. I'm an 18 year old girl who watches the fights with her dad, I mean, really?
I've been trying to get my dad to take me to a UFC event for a couple of years, and we looked at tickets when they were fighting in Memphis (or maybe Nashville, I honestly can't remember right now) back during the summer, we just didn't have the money to do it, so being able to go to this fight would make my YEAR 9even though dad says that if I do win, he's sending me and my brother because he thinks it'd be awesome for us to get to go). If I don't win (which is basically %100 going to happen) then I'll just try to get tickets to an event (UFC or WEC) that's close to home.
The whole reason that I'm blogging though is because this weekend is a big one for the WEC (a sister organization to the UFC). The featherweight title is on the line, and Dana White has called it "if not the fight of the year, then a definite candidate". (You can check out his youtube video here) It's going to be amazing. The featherweights are always fun to watch because they're "speedy little bastards" as my dad and I like to say, but this time is going to be even better. Urijah Faber is fighting Jose Aldo for the belt, in the WEC's first ever ppv match. The Arco Arena (where the fight is being held) will be sold out, and I can say that if I had the ppv option on my tv, I'd be watching the fight live from my very own living room.
I can't wait to see the results and find out who the champ will be. Hopefully I can find a nice live blog to read along the way like I did when GSP fought Dan Hardy and spanked his narcissistic little ass. ;) At least when I finally move away from home for college, I'll already be used to not seeing the ppv. Or I could just make friends with a bunch of dudes on campus and crash with them when the fights are on.
