New Week!

Hi everyone,



A very weird picture of me.. with my eyes open this time! =D

How are you guys doing? I'm doing pretty good, my life is quiet and here is another blog post! It is 2:47pm as I write this entry and eat a handful of Craisins. Craisins are actually supposed to be really healthy for you being a fat free snack and all. But there are tons of sugar added to them, 33 grams per serving! Hahah I'm just reading the label.. talking about "the sweetest way to eat a cranberry". Here I am criticizing Craisins even though I'm eating and enjoying them. I'm known to complain a lot. Heheh ^_~

I am so bored right now, it's kind of weird that I always write these blog posts around three in the afternoon. I don't think it's a bad habit though.. talking about habits! I will tell you a couple of my habits; good and bad.

One good habit? I always flush the toilet? Hahaha t.m.i Anzu.. okay one good habit. I'd have to say is.. whenever I eat, I chew my food with my mouth close. It used to annoy me that my mom always chewed her food with her mouth open. It was kind of unpleasant lol.. I even tried to get her to stop. But she always ignored my comments and so eventually I ignored that bad habit of hers.

Okay I have A LOT of bad habits lmao. I will name a few.. I never change out of my pajamas in the morning since I'm home schooled. I'm actually in them right now... sigh lol. I always tease my dogs by hiding their toys and they run all over the house panicking. They never stop playing!! Unless you ignore them.. but I'll save that for another time hahah. The last bad habit is I always leave my clothes all over my room; trust me, my room is a total disaster! See, I'm a normal person! Hehe..




Hmm let's see, what else do I like to do? I love making masks, as in facial masks. I'm a real girly girl sometimes.. I like to try all kinds. I usually get the ideas from YouTube gurus such as Bubzbeauty (<3) and Michelle Phan. I usually make these masks for my acne (you can't see in my pictures =P) or uneven skin tone. I've learned a lot from YouTube actually hahah.

My favorite masks are:

  • Aspirin Mask (MichellePhan)
  • Yogurt Oatmeal Mask (Bubzbeauty)
  • Carrot Yogurt Mask (Mine)

The last mask sounds really... unusual huh? That is one I made up myself! It does wonders with my skin! A-ma-zing!! If you need any of the recipes, comment below. I'll post them up in my next post! =) These facials do wonders! I like to use a couple of the store bought ones when I'm too lazy.




I love both MichellePhan's and Bubzbeauty's DIY mask videos because they are so helpful and they provide good information about the ingredients you are supposed to use in each mask! Here is a video for a Yogurt Oatmeal Mask from Bubzbeauty! It's an older video, but it's still just as good! -^_^-



Take care everyone,



Much love,


Anzu xx

Three Days In a Row

Hi everyone, it is 2:58pm right now but I feel as tired as ever. Not a good way to start off a blog post is it? I just feel like walking on a beach with water washing over my feet and sand in between my toes. The wind blowing through my hair while tasting the salty air..


It is my third day in a row that I have been posting!! Yay! Even though I don't know if anyone is actually viewing my blog, I just need to have faith and be patient right? So, now I guess I'll talk a little more about me and my life.

One of my hobbies is dancing; this is only my second year taking classes though. I'd say I'm not the best dancer in the world, but I try my hardest and try to keep up with everyone else. I was in beginner classes last year of course, but I got moved to advanced classes this year. It's a lot of hard work and takes some muscles, but I can do it. I just know it. My favorite class is hip hop, it's the dance I'm best at. ^_^

My inspiration for dancing is a girl named Pauline Mata, she's a great dancer and you can tell she has a lot of experience. She has a few different YouTube channels of her dancing, and I always check them to see if there's anything new. She posts videos up every month or so and I always enjoy them. Whenever I feel down I always watch one of her videos. Then I remember that if she works hard then I have to work hard too. I'll post a video at the end of this post!

Another thing I like to do is draw, it's just a fun past time. I've been drawing ever since I can remember. Some of my drawings are good, some are not. The thing that I'm irritated about myself though is that I can't draw something from just looking at it. I can only draw other people's drawings if that makes sense.. like I can draw a parrot by looking at another person's parrot drawing hahah. ^_^ I know it's weird, but it's just how I do things. I do really appreciate art, architecture, and things like that.

I don't really have a person that inspires me in drawing, if I had to choose one person I'd have to pick my older sister. She used to want to be a fashion designer and she'd draw models all the time.. I guess it's only normal that I would look up to her since she is my older sister. But I actually like to draw flowers or animals; she would usually draw people. I still like her drawings though! I'm not very good at drawing people, and I certainly can't draw manga hehe..



Well, I'll have to go now! I hope everyone of you enjoyed this post! Still so tired... -_- Please guide me through this everyone... here is the video of the person that inspires me the most in the art of dancing.




This is one of my favorite songs ever to one of my favorite artists and this is one of my favorite dances! I said "favorite" so many times lol! ^_~ This is my message to all of you! The sun will always shine, you are you beautiful no matter what they say! So cheesy, but I love it. Have a great day guys =)

Much Love,


Anzu xx

An Everyday Thing

Hi everyone! It's 2:46pm over here and I am exhausted. I just came home from Marshall's (department store) where I got a cute dress and I went to Carl's Junior to eat lunch. There was a strange smell lurking in the house. My mom was like, "What's that smell?". "It smells like soy sauce" I replied. Then we found a puddle of it all under my dining room table. This was my dog Bear's doing. e.e After cleaning that mess I decided to post up another blog entry. Sigh...





Yeah, that's right! Be guilty you bad doggy! >_< I just found this picture on the Internet, isn't he cute? Hehehe...

So this post will be about me once again. I'll need to get used to this... but I don't necessarily know if this blog will be a good thing or bad thing! Again, please guide me through this everyone! Do any of you have any ideas on how to get this blog more successful and out there? I'll definitely need help, I don't think I could do it on my own.

Did you enjoy the Asian Dream Song video I posted on my last blog? Wasn't it amazing? I love that piece so much. This time I will tell you about another person that inspires me. Her name is Hayley Westenra; she is Irish but I think she is from New Zealand. I love her voice, it just sounds so angelic. She inspires me, and she reminds me that if I work harder and practice more, I can get better in my singing. I am a soprano just like her, it feels great to just sing her songs. Hahah I'm such a nerd ^_~. I will post a video of her singing at the end of this blog post. So please look out for it!
I don't want to have more than one video in a blog post, but I'm so tempted to! >_< Grrr... My blog posts will be posted up daily or at least every couple days. It really depends on my mood, but I shouldn't live my life based on my feelings should I? ^_^

I didn't really do anything for Halloween except I went to this party and wore a shirt that said "Too Lazy to Get a Halloween Costume". Hahah that's ironic because I bought that shirt for my Halloween costume. Everyone liked my shirt, at my dance studio, little things like that. It was bright orange too, so people could see me a miles away =D No one's missing Anzu! The shirt that I bought is just like the ones shown here. My mom got the black one lol.



Sorry, the picture is a little blurry. I hope you can see what the shirt says though. Orange looks horrible on me, but it all worked out pretty well. Lol..... Sadly I didn't go trick-o-treating. It's not my thing, but it can really be fun. Aren't I boring. =/

So right now I'm just typing this blog entry, checking out some of my favorite websites, and well.. sitting. =P I've just realized that my previous blog post isn't very long, I'm so sorry everyone! I was just afraid that I'd make it too long and bore you out. But, I'm not even sure if anyone is really reading this.. God please help me lol.

Hey, can you guys believe its already November this year?! In 2011! Lmao yes, Anzu, in 2011.. In America, Thanksgiving is coming up very soon. And after that Christmas!! =D I love getting presents still hahah.. In Thanksgiving I love the food... and the thanksgiving of course! I will make a blog post soon just on Thanksgiving hopefully.

I'm on one of my most visited websites. It's a fashion based website where you can create your own templates that they call "sets". Cool huh? They also have different contests, groups, and you can "follow" other people or be "followed". I'll post a link down below. Feel free to roam around!

I have to go now! Thank you for reading my entry.. it still smells like soy sauce in here T_T
Here is that video I mentioned! First song I've sang and heard of hers. ^_^





Much love,


Anzu xx

My First Blog

Hi guys! This is my first blog ever and I know it sounds selfish, but it's about my everyday life. I kept thinking and researching over and over again trying to pick out the topic for my first blog. So then I thought, why not start with something simple? No one knows about my life more than I do. ^_^ I know a lot of people wouldn't be interested, but follow along! If you want to suggest something, go ahead! I'll take all your suggestions on how to make this a better blog. Please guide me through this everyone! I'm guessing you guys will probably want to know more about me. I'll just set a picture out, trusting that none of you guys are stalkers or perverts ^_~



Hahah I'm really Asian huh? Yes, I'm Chinese but I live in the US. I love to sing, dance, act, and sometimes draw. I like to swim too, but I only get to do that during the summer :'(. I loove watching anime and reading manga, as you can see I like using emoticons too. Hehe... I guess I could have blogged about that too, but I'll just see how far this blog goes! I like going on YouTube, but I never make any videos. I usually just comment on them or watch them. My role model is Bubzbeauty, I just adore her! Check her channel out and her website. >_<

I feel really bad now that I'm just talking about myself. Well, I did choose to do this... nnnghh. -_- Back to myself again... well I play one instrument. The piano! :D Well, I'm self taught and I don't really think I can play very well, but hahah I try my hardest. Practice makes perfect! My inspiration for piano playing is Joe Hisaishi. He is a really great pianist, he is so talented. Watch the video down below, this is the first video I saw of him playing. It literally blew me away, he has so much emotion. It's amazing.


I hope you guys liked my first post! Please follow if you like what you see or just want to see what's coming up next. The first few posts will be more about me and what I like to do and who inspires me and what not. Later on it'll just be focused on what I'm doing every day. My life is pretty boring though so help me with ideas and I might blog about something different every once in awhile. Thanks! ^^

Much love,
