a few wonderful things

okay.. so this may not be WONDERFUL but it's pretty darn cool :P

one random fact about me is that this is probably one of my FAVORITE american candies. notice the "american" tacked on in front there :P hahaha. i usually find most other candies either weird tasting or waaaayyy too sweet for me. they even say reese's cups were MADE FOR women (sweet and salty mix).

unfortunately.. as i get older (haha), i find myself not being able to eat quite as many reese's cups as i used to, mostly because it just gets TOO sweet for me. so i was hoping that this DARK CHOCOLATE version (heart dark chocolate!) would be LESS sweet and FAR MORE AWESOME.

pros: boyfriend likes it (also a con??), is indeed dark chocolate

cons: STILL SWEET! i forget that hershey's dark chocolate is sweeeeet. mind you, i don't like BITTERSWEET 80% cocoa dark chocolate but i don't like it to be just as sweet as milk chocolate.. just somewhere inbetween. goldilocks style. "just right".

overall.. i think this was a little TOO hyped up. you can definitely TASTE a *bit* of a difference but if you were rushing around to different stores to try it, i suggest you to slow down and wait until it comes back in stock (unlike me who had the manager go check the back to see if there was another box).. but it's definitely worth trying at least. but it's not a miracle in my mouth like i was hoping.

LOVEEE.. this saves me more than once during my "unfortunate week". and the fact that it now is half gel capsule is even better. there's a CVS brand one that has the same ingredients but they're still 100% pill.. and even though it was about HALF the price (it's on sale right now i think).. i still went with midol. the boyfriend called me a brand whore. then immediately said he was joking when i whirled around and gave him my PMS-glare. LOL!!

forever21 jean shorts. they're still available for purchase (under the SALE section).. down from $20 something to $10.99 :) quite nice! i haven't had jean shorts in foreverrrr.. so i decided to get me some, hahaha. they're quite comfortable and they go perfectly with.. the shirts that i specifically bought these shorts to wear them with, LOL. post an outfit later if i'm feeling leg-confident :P WE SHALL SEE!

MAXI DRESS!! also from forever21.com.. also on sale.. down from about $25+ to also $10.99.. i decided why not.. this is unfortunately NOT on the site anymore (i was planning on getting the green version of the dress as well but they ran outta my size! ah well, that's probably a good thing). but.. it is everything i wanted in a maxi dress. super comfortable, perfect length (my other one is slightly short i think), love the material, love the color. LOVE IT. perfect for fall and yes, i'd still wear this during the summer and maybe even into cali-winter if i can pull it off. i absolutely ADORE this dress and really should've gotten a second one (maybe it's still in stock in their stores?? hmmmmm). oh well, no dryer for THIS dress :P

thanks ladies who've purchased from MOTO SAYS SALES (blogsale)!! it's still running and i lowered a few prices. if you're interested in something but think i'm charging too much (and have a GOOD reason), lemme know and we'll see what we can do. don't try to rob me though, i'm definitely not gonna let you walk all over me! :P

i'd love to post some new MOTOJEWELRY stuff up but unfortunately they're all ideas (sitting on my desk).. but not put together yet :\ and i have some select images to process from my photoshoot (one that i posted awhile ago) to send to the model.. AND a friend (or two) is/are coming up to visit tomorrow! :) psssst, lemme know what you want to see more of up there and i'll see what i can do!

thanks for tuning in! and i appreciate all of you for your awesome comments and sweet cbox messages :) anddd of course all of your blog posts which help me procrastinate--haha! next post will beeee.. more of my makeup collection (hopefully). but don't hold me to it ;) unless i just procrastinate on it so much that you think i forgot. which i probably did at that point, LOL.

love, peace and happiness~
