Yep. I’m quite proud to say that I did stuff on the weekends. Lots of stuff. I made sure to take pictures as well to document the funnitude. This entry’s a bit picture-heavy, but hopefully you won’t be bored!

Friday

Went out with my two closest buddies, Jules and Pris, to try shaved snow for the first time. This is seriously the best thing I’ve ever tried this year. The “snow” is so light and delicate that it almost feels like you’re only eating cold air…delicious cold air. This is the best thing to eat for the summer.

The place is called Snow Station. We ordered two large plates and I went again with my boyfriend on Sunday to eat them again. :-X

So Pris rides a motorcycle now (I know, right!?). When I was watching her getting ready to go home after our fun filled snow-noming adventures, I had to snap a picture of her in her glorious biker form.

Saturday

Went to my nephew and niece’s communion, then had dim sum with my family afterwards.

Sunday

This was the last day of Renaissance Faire, so my boyfriend and I decided to go. I can’t believe this is already my 5th year attending, and I still love going there every time. Most people who dress up are so damn into it and they’re really nice and friendly. They love getting their pictures taken (with all of that work they put into their costumes, you’d be too), and I love taking pictures of them. It all works out!

You can check out the rest of the photos at the Flickr!

After leaving a comment on one of Liv’s post about my old “psychic” phone (in which I will explain in further detail), I started remembering other peculiar things I have witnessed or experienced in the past. Here’s a list of the only ones I can remember so far:

nokia3120THE PSYCHIC PHONE: I had received my very first cell phone when I was around 17 years old. A few months later, I started to notice that every time I called a landline telephone number, I could usually hear what’s going on on the other end before the person accepted the phone call. If the person was calling me, I can also hear them as well before answering it. The novelty of this phone was confirmed when I told one of my friends to start singing something on the phone while he tried to call me.  As soon I pressed the “answer” key, I continued to sing the song from where he left off which freaked him out.

I’ve always wished I could call somebody and hear them say “Ugh, it’s Tiff, she’s so goddamn annoying,” only to have them answer the phone just to hear me yell “Bitch I knew you was talkin smack about me!” *CLICK*

Of course, it never happened. Instead, I would usually hear people coughing, clearing their throats or objects being moved around. Also, I don’t remember it working on cell phones. Mainly because flip phones were prevalent at the time, and these damn flips phones with their flippity floppity covers were insusceptible to the powers of psychic phone!

 

DROP DEAD TWIRLIN’ MIRROR: My older sister gave me a really tall and heavy three-way mirror once and to give you a better idea of what it looked like, it was at least a feet taller than me (I’m 5’5) and it looked really similar to the one in this picture:

3way

Right off the bat, the mirror had already given me the major creeps. It use to be in my bedroom; it stood right up against a wall, next to my drawers. I barely had it for about a month, when I woke up one morning to a big ass three-way mirror laying down on the ground. Wow, it tipped over, no big deal right? You would think that, but after getting a closer look at it, the mirror–the side of the ACTUAL glass reflection–was facing up.

So it didn’t just tip over. It had to turn around 180 degrees and then fall over. With a mirror like mine, it would take a lot of effort to make that happen because of it’s weight and the placement of it.  Basically, you’d have to pull the mirror a few feet away from the wall it was leaning up against, turn it around and then knock it over. Also, one side of the mirror shattered into pieces due to the impact.

I’ve always wondered what really caused it to fall over on the wrong side and it bothers me that I’ll never know what really happened. So I’ll just imagine that it decided to faint or drop dead in a dramatic fashion because it didn’t want to be a mirror anymore. It gave up.

 

LITTLE BROTHER: Thankfully, this did not happen directly to me but it happened in the house that I’m currently still living in. One of my older brothers decided to invite a few of his friends over just to hang out during the afternoon. When they were finally getting ready to head out, I overhead an exchange between my brother and one of his lady friends:

Lady friend: “Hey, I saw your little brother in your backyard. Why didn’t you introduce me to him?”

Brother: “Um, I don’t have a little brother.”

 

Well, that’s all for now. Hope you all have a good night’s sleep!

If you haven’t been following my Instagram and/ Facebook, then you might not know how much I’ve been creeping my friends out lately. I recently got a pair of black sclera FX contact lenses for my cosplay stuff, from FX Eyes. I’m certainly no stranger to wearing theatrical contact lenses, but I’ve never worn the kind where it covers the entire frontal portion of your eyeball.

So naturally, I was scared as shit to try them on for the first time, but once you get it passed your eyelid, everything else is smooth sailing. The process of inserting them into your eye might appear painful (video below) but it actually feels surprisingly nice.

Yeah check me out! This is what nightmares are made of, bitches. Sorry that was rude of me. I know better than that. These are super comfortable by the way. Oddly, a lot more comfortable than the past, regular-sized theatrical contact lenses I’ve worn.

If you’re curious to see how I put them in, check out this video. I rarely record myself so savor this moment where you can actually watch me move and make naturally ugly expressions!
