Summer parasols

-
I'm currently searching online for the perfect summer parasol.  I'm a lot more aware about the long-term damage of UV rays on the skin and the risk of skin cancer so I've decided to make a life change and use anti-UV parasols on sunny days.  I'm super obsessed with skin care so I've decided to adopt the Asian way and take an extra step to protect my skin.

One of the things I hate most is the sun blasting in my face so buying a parasol has been one of my best purchases so far.

I forgot to mention that I actually did purchase a parasol a couple weeks ago and it's almost perfect except for the fact that its diameter is slightly too wide for my preference.

< Umbrella, why u no smaller? )



Besides that small issue, the parasol works great and does a nice job of keeping the sun out of my face.  I don't really give a sh*t what people think because I get even more irritated when I can feel my face burning under the intense rays of the sun.

Most of America doesn't seem to be used to people carrying parasols and I hope that they start to catch on about the risks of skin cancer and premature aging.  They should take better care of their skin and stop being dumbasses spending their money on tanning salons.  It's like paying to make your skin uglier!  WTF, I'll never understand.  The most hilarious part of this is that some people actually believe that skin tanning is beneficial to the skin.....  I really want to go up to these people and be like......

  WTF!!!! WHY DO YOU DO THIS TO YOURSELF?!!?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So I'm currently trying to catch up on some studying but it's not that easy without my computer and everyone in the living room is so distracting..

I'll try to complete at least one practice quiz. *Grrrrrrrrrrr* Wth is my graphics card taking so long?!!! D:<
I'm literally dying of un-motivation!

Why does Lightning look so different in FFXIII Lightning Returns? [SPOILERS-!]

I finally finished the game Lightning Returns recently and zomg, why does her face look so different?  I mean, she looks like she got plastic surgery. Before I begin, I'd like to point out that I am not criticizing the game in its entirety.  This is solely about the change in Lightning's hair and facial design.  The game play of Lightning Returns has nothing to do with this. :) I didn't really notice her face change until I beat the game and watched the ending CG animation scene.  (pic above is from the opening CG scene) I was a bit disappointed that the animators weren't consistent in her facial design, especially when it was so beautiful to begin with. Here's some compare/contrast pics I found. This one is of the CG animation for FFXIII, FFXIII-2, and FFXIII Lightning Returns. And here's the cutscene animation.  It's a bit more difficult to tell the difference in the cutscene animation unless you look closely. The hair

Anime Food!: Brock's Cream Stew

Hello again!  My apologies for taking so long to make another 'Anime Food' post.  Enjoy! During my childhood days of watching Pokemon, I would often see Brock cooking this white stew thing.  It would look so yummy but I had no idea what it was..  And even though my entire family and extended family was Japanese, none of them ever made something like this.  (T__T)  The closest thing I got was corn chowder. Only recently did I discover that it's called cream stew and luckily, it's quite the easy recipe. ^^ I remember the very first time I made this.  I used a cream stew mix pack from the store (the one that has the blocks that you melt in the pot).  That turned out pretty bad so I highly recommend people make this one from scratch.  It's really does taste so much better this way.  I'm lazy so instead of having the pretty diced pieces of carrot, I threw in some baby carrots.  XD Close up ;3 I found this recipe on Little Japan Mama's rec

Movie Review: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows pt 1 & 2

Hooray for the 100th post~! (^0^) I finally got to watching the last installment of the Harry Potter series (The Deathly Hallows Pt2) last night with my dad (and may I add that he was so loud, especially on the quiet parts of the movie, I even had to elbow him and tell him to be quiet... And then he's laugh at inappropriate times, so embarrassing, thank God it was dark). Sorry to say but after viewing it for the first time, I really prefer Pt1. I don't know why, maybe it's because I liked the scenery better or those particular scenes opposed to the 2nd part of the movie. My favorite scenes were the one with the doe patronus and Harry & party running down the streets of London and when they infiltrated the ministry. I'd have to watch the last Hp movie again to give a better review because sometimes when I watch the movie again, I have a better impression of it. The last movie was full of effects and flare. I was trying REALLY hard not to compare it to th
