Update on Tiff’s “life”

If anybody cares, I am back to blogging! Well–Kinda! Depends if I actually have stuff to write about, but yeah, I finally have time and can focus on what I love doing…writing nonsensical spouts of starbursts on Tiffsbloggy (man I love saying that).

Oh, and when I mean “I finally have time” I mean, I’m not playing World of Warcraft as much anymore since I finally hit level 80 for the first time.

For those who know WoW and are curious to know what I play, I play a fresh lvl 80 blood elf hunter on Blackrock server.  She’s BM for pvp, and soon to be MM for pve.

If I were to turn into a video game character,  she would be it.  I intentionally created her that way so she would somewhat resemble me.  I mean technically, I’m not just playing WoW…I’m literally in the game but in pixel format. Right? Amirite?

Thanks to my boyfriend, who COERCED me in to trying out the 10-day trial of the game, I’ve been really addicted to it for the past three months.  Though, thankfully, not as much anymore now that I am level 80.  I can finally breathe, focus more on school and this website, and shower more.

And since I’m a huge nerd for dressing up, last thing I want to mention is my Halloween costume.  I was dressed as a Victorian vampire, with crazy cat-eye contact lenses.  Here are some photos of the event, plus an adorable photo of my nephew trick-0-treating for the first time as an added bonus (he’s not even two yet!):

Your face is a LIE!

About a week ago, my friend, Jules, used me as a model for her mom’s jewelry store.  I never had such proper treatment before.  And I never had that much makeup being put on to one single face…my face.

Jules, a MAC makeup artist, did a great job regardless.  It was crazy! I never knew that my own dork face was capable of such impeccable hotness, all thanks to Jules and her fine makeup artistry.  Here are some photos of the shoot, some of them are “actual” shoots and others were from our regular cameras mostly for fun:

Boy do I love makeup.  Isn’t it great how putting a little can accentuate features?  And putting lots of it on can really altar a woman’s face in drastic measures, capable of deceiving men? And speaking of men, I wonder if they–who are attracted to women that always wear caked-on powder, caked-on lipgloss, caked-on eyeshadow, and whatever other form of cosmetic they’d put on to their heart’s content–are aware of what might be underneath the cake-laden face.

After a couple of hours of shooting, I drove home with the makeup on.  On my way there, some guy driving next to me stared and whistled at me, and made flattering remarks.  Usually, this doesn’t happen.   And this whole time, I couldn’t help but to think, “If he only knew…”  If he only knew that the glossy lips, the rosey cheeks, the long lashes weren’t hereditary.  If he only knew that I really don’t wear makeup unless I go out for a special occasion or that I’m with my boyfriend (sorry Matt!).

If he only knew that he was actually whistling to this:

Lol

My summer kind of kicks ass.

Will update more on life later, for now, two very important things of kickassery:

1. I went to Comic-Con International in San Diego for my second time, and I’ve finally did what I’ve always wanted to do…costume play! Yeah, that’s right, I’m a grown-up and I dressed up for a geek convention…and I liked it.

I was dressed up as the female counterpart of Kakashi from Naruto.  My buddy, Pris, was dressed as the female Joker (her makeup looked friggen’ SICK), and my other buddy, Jason, was also a Naruto character.  The two other guys, Mina (Pris’s fiance) and Matt (my boyfriend), were dressed up as humans. Original? I think so.

I had a blast.  I saw other cool geeks dressed up.  I saw lots of cool gizmos and gadgets.  And since I was dressed up, a lot of people took photos with me.  There was a point where I was alone, and just out of the blue, people, in large groups, were taking photos of me, complimenting on my costume and my red “sharingan” contact.  I never had this kind of “celebrity” treatment before, and I ain’t gotta lie, it felt kind of nice to be noticed and to have the flash going off in your face as if you were getting mauled by the paparazzi.

The downside of this experience was not being able to go to a panel, namely The Big Bang Theory sitcom.  Also, my ninja mask.  I was sweating profusely in there.  And I wore the mask prior to the convention so much (for fun) that it loosened up, and I had to tape it inside during the event. Gah.

All in all, it was fun, and I got to spend it with my closest friends.  I certainly can’t wait to attend and dress up for Comic-Con 2010. Shwing!

2. Last night, I had my sister cut a huge portion of my hair so I can give it away.  My new do is very bold and obviously, very drastic, but I’m really in love with my new haircut.  It’s different!

Do I miss it?

Not even.  Hell, I’d even cut it up eyes, but since my face is kind of prominent with a bit of a masculine touch, people might mistaken me for a dude, or a lesbian.

I guess I haven’t been talking about “fashion” lately, so I thought it’d be good for me to steal Katy’s fashion meme and make it my own. Muahahah thanks Katy.

Name the item of clothing that has been with you the longest:
I’m looking in my closet right now and you know what? All of my clothes are all fairly old except maybe one or two things haha.  However, I’ve been buying new shoes, so I’m going to cheat and go with the pair of shoes that I’ve had the longest:

Black leather slouch boots! Though I don’t wear them as much as I use to, I’ve had these boots for roughly five years.

Other than jeans, what’s an article of clothing that you can’t live without?
I sure can’t live without a t-shirt.

What was the last item of clothing you bought?
An army camouflage printed shorts.  They’re made for boys, but it fits me.

What’s the ugliest trend of all time?
I can’t really say ’cause I’ve seen some girls wear the ugliest looking piece of shit sweater and make it look fashion forward.  And I’ve seen girls wear really nice, expensive pants or some other shit, and turn it to something cheap and tacky.  Yeah, unforgivable.

I welcome all kinds of trends, but I just think it depends on the person, their body type, and the way they carry themselves.

And the best?
Same as above.

What was your biggest fashion faux-pas?
I use to wear small fitted t-shirts that showed the lower part of my stomach. Gag me with a fork. Look at me trying to show off my new purse and faking a surprised look, I looked like such an asshole.

What colors predominate in your wardrobe?
I’ve got all sorts of colors!

What are your vintage shopping strategies?
Go to a vintage store.

What’s the most insane piece of clothing that you have ever owned?
I thought it was my leopard printed pants, but apparently, it’s my leather pants.  Every time I wear them, I get the most obnoxious stares from women, and they look at me as if I’m an insane person who likes to punch random people right before they eat.

If you could describe the majority of the clothes you own in one word, what would it be?
Well, I got A LOT of black leather, so I’d say insane-pseudo-biker-who-punches-random-people-right-before-they-eat.

My Christmas Wishylist

World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War by Max Brooks

I’m really bad when it comes to reading books.  98% of the books that is currently on my bookshelf has been read…halfway.  Oh I plan on finishing all of them, pages are still bookmarked and everything, but it’s probably not going to happen in this lifetime.  Actually, I really don’t know why I’m asking for another book, but this one’s about zombies man! And believe it or not, I did read the whole book of The Zombie Survival Guide (safety first!), which is also written by Max Brooks, so I think I’ll get into WWZ without a sweat.

Betseyville or Betsey Johnson bag in studded shiny (or not shiny) black leather

I’m really not into bags.  Whenever I go out, I normally take my cards, keys, and cellphone with me, so there’s not much to carry had I use bags.  But if there’s one bag out there that I’d rock regardless of my lack of shit to put in, it would most certainly be the Betsey bags.  Bags designed by Betsey Johnson/Betseyville are straight up tacky and over the top…but I like it.  And I think carrying bags of gaudiness would perfectly balance everything out whenever I have a normal plain ol’ outfit on.

Disney Pixar Ultimate Movie Collection

I’ve loved every movie Pixar has made for Disney, and I still like watching them whenever I get the chance to, so I’m pretty sure this item was made for me. And remember, this isn’t Disney Pixar Movie Collection, it’s Disney Pixar Ultimate Collection. Ultimate. That’s fucking hardcore, man.

Every gotdamn music soundtrack from movies by Quentin Tarentino

I’m not sure if Mr. Tarentino gets to select his choice of songs for every movie he’s directed, but each and every song I’ve heard from all of his movies brings a sweet feeling of orgasm to my ears.  The songs in Grindhouse Death Proof is at the top of my list of most orgasmic.

Marvel Zombies 1, 2, and 3 in hardcover

Marvel Zombies is one of the most interesting reads to come out of comic books.  The concept of Marvel Zombies is genius.  Just imagine a horde of Marvel comic book characters turned into flesh-eating zombies who are able to retain their humanity.  That’s frightening…and pretty awesome.  I’ve finished the first volume, and and the first two issues of the 2nd volume, and would love more than anything than to finish reading all of it.
