So here's just a couple things I wanted to ramble about, no particular categoies, hence the name of this post
First off, thank you to everyone for your compliments about my new layout. I really like it! It looks much cleaner and it's way easier to read. It also loads a lot faster too! I was a little hesitant to put my pictures in the banner because I didn't want you guys to think I was being conceited or someting, but at the same time, I'm one of those people who never really feel like they're that pretty most of the time, so when I finally get a good picture I like to show it, kinda as a way of saying, "See? I can be pretty sometimes, I'm not always looking like a bum!" I'm sure some of you have felt the same way :P So thank you again for all your nice comments!
Second, I was at Sally's Beauty Supply and I happened to find this eyelash curler. It's by Tweezerman, the same brand who makes the really good tweezers.
Anyways, it's called like a super deluxe curler or something and you're supposed to heat it with your hair dryer for a couple seconds to make your lashes curl better and last longer. I tried it out without heating it and surprisingly it seems to work pretty well on my lashes! As you all know I have the typical sparse, stick straight lashes and this does a pretty good job. Obviously my lashes are not going to curl as well as other non Asian people's lashes, but for what I have it works pretty well. Haha, it kinda looks like a torture device, no wonder guys are so confused about girls' makeup and tools!
And lastly, I was given this award by Irene. Thank you so much Irene, this award is so cute! You guys should check out her blog, it's so cute and she's gorgeous! Thanks again! ;)
I know I'm supposed to tag some people but I'm really tired now, so I tag everyone! Feel free to post this on your own blogs! Oh, and for those of you who tagged me for the "My own cosmetics line" tag, don't worry I'll get around to it, I am actually having a hard time thinking of what I would do! :P
I'm off to do a tutorial, I will be posting it in a litle bit. Stay tuned!
P.s. Oh I have a question which might be kinda stupid but just humor me-I'm trying to re-organize my posts with different categories and tags, am I supposed to use the same names for the categories and tags? For example, if I label the category 'tutorial' do i use the same name for the tag? And when people use the search bar to look for certain items, is the word they type in gonna pop up related posts according to the catogory or tag? I'm so confused...please help?
*Update: Okay I am almost done re-filing my posts, but to be honest I have a feeling I am making it even more confusing for myself. Oh well, I'm not gonna go back and redo it again! Some of my posts are now in different places now and since I started from my most recent posts and went backwards, some of my older posts are now showing up as more recent ones, just to let you know if you were looking for a recent post....:P

that looks pretty cool! and i love the layout as well!
i just changed mine too. i wanted to do something lighter for spring :)
Hahaa.. abt the tags and categories I am just as clueless, and mine are super random and messy, I know they are to file your entries into some system kind of, for easier searches and all but I am not going to re-tag or sort of years of rambings and posts.
And I like your new layout the pictures on top!!
The curler looks like a torture device. :p
I tend to file my post under one or at most two categories, but I would tag it as everything I have talked about in the post. I am assuming that the search function would be able to find the tags. =D
i love your new layout! you must be really good at html! jealous. lol. sorry but i can't really help you with your question. generally i think if you search a word, anything with the word (posts, categories, whatever) should appear, no? you could try testing it out by searching on your blog!
thanks for your tips girls! i just went ahead and did it however i thought it goes...and thanks for the layout compliments! :)
retail therapy: yeah it really does huh! :P
Oh man my bf would be so scared by that lash curler!!! He gets confused b/w eyeliner and eyeshadow, lol!
And, don't feel conceited for putting you photos in the header! Uhm, hello have you seen the million other girls with blogs who do that?? Hehe. And I TOTALLY know what you mean about getting a good picture. Be proud of those photos and your beautiful self and show 'em off!!!
Categories ,tags, blah, blah,blah you're doing an awesome job any way you put it! You worry too much. Just do what you're doing it's all working out. We get it and understand what you're doing. We're backing you up sister lovely. Now for your pics you're a beautiful girl and I really think you should do print modeling like I said because as time goes by beauty fades. Do not waste your beauty. Take my advice I know what I am talking about. AND YOU'RE NOT CONCEITED!!! I have been a makeup artist for over, well a long time, and trained at the best schools in Hollywood- fully licensed in hair, aestheticism, makeup artist, manicure and pedicure. Specializing in makeup. So what's all this about? I am learning a lot from your site. You're very good at what you do. Peace and blessings dear Liana.
Great new layout! I wish I could change mine but it's so complicated haha. I think your new banner pictures are very pretty! LOL I feel the same way when I post pictures of myself on my blog too. Can't wait to hear what you think of the tweezers and congratulations on the blog award!
Wow that curler looks unique! haha. Never quite seen one like that before.
As for categories, just fit them how you feel would be best. I personally am rather organizational when it comes to my computer/blog so under categories I have a fixed number like 10 categories or something (tutorial, review etc) and tags I would just put in whatever is related. But whichever you feel makes you happy about the way you arrange it is best
Your banner rocks! Hmm...haven't seen this new curler yet. I do know that Tweezerman makes great stuff though. :) Congrats on the award!
kechiko: seriously, guys have no idea what we girls go through! and thanks for the comments, ur so sweet!
