OVERALL
As you can tell I REALLY liked this mascara and I think it's saying a lot because I'm not easily impressed at all by make up products. In fact, at first I didn't think this mascara was anything special! The thing about people who make reviews right away, I feel, is that they don't really get the full experience using the product for a couple days and then judging it, which is why I don't do reviews right away. But I used this for a good 3 - 4 months and I definitely liked it a lot. I didn't start liking it til after a few weeks of use because as it got exposed to air, it got a little thicker and I started to notice a lot more volumizing and lengthening. I didn't fully see the difference until I stopped using it and started using MAC Opulash and realized it didn't work as well as Bad Gal Lash!
I have thick, long-ish lashes and I could REALLY see the difference. I think you can really tell in my August 2010 Favorites Video and I think you can really see my lashes there. I tried to think of major cons with this mascara, but I really don't have any. It didn't give me racoon eyes, clump, or crack when I wore it. The only thing I really didn't like about it is the price, but I think in terms of size, it has more product than Dior Show Mascara. I've heard some girls complain about how huge the brush is but I actually liked the big brush. If you're not too keen on spending $19 on a mascara either, you could always opt for the mini sizes that Sephora has in it's little bins or even online. Mascara is kind of easy to grade because you either love it or hate it and Benefit's Bad Gal Lash was definitely love!

my youtube review
The Gorilla Monkey Illusion | Passing Basketball Illusion
You might have heard about my earlier demonstration in which people fail to notice a person in a gorilla suit when they are busy counting how many times a group of people pass a basketball. People can only experience the gorilla effect once-after they know to look for a gorilla, it is no longer unexpected. But what would happen if we tried showing you another video just like it? If you know that something unexpected might happen, and you actively look for unexpected events, does that make you more likely to notice them? Try it for yourself.
The cup and ball trick optical illusion | Magic optical illusion
Impossible Motion magnet like slopes illusion
This optical illusion has been created in three dimensions. It is a real object. However impossible things seem to happen! The wooden balls seem to roll uphill. It cannot be magnets - they do not work on wood! This wonderful illusion was created by Koukichi Sugihara from the Meiji Institute for Advanced Study of Mathematical Sciences in Japan. In May 2010 this video was the winner of the Best Visual Illusion of the Year Contest 2010.
However once the structure rotates, we can see that it is not constructed as we initially thought. We might have thought that the wooden balls were rolling uphill. Once we view it from the other side, we can see that in fact the balls are rolling downhill, and that the laws of physics are still being obeyed.
FOTD: Nicki Minaj 'Hello Good Morning' Video Inspired
Of course my interpretation is no where near as good as her MUA's but I think it's definitely more wearable! Not a lot of people are used to wearing that much eye make up anyway! I did a video on it so you guys can check it out too.

I'm taking summer school but still wtf am I gonna do on my down time? But yeah I uploaded my first tutorial! I'm kinda frustrated because it's not as clear as I thought it would be? I used my sister's HD camcorder but it's not coming out right? I have no clue what I'm doing but she's taking her camera with her so I'm debating if I should buy a new camera. I want a cheap one but one that records in HD too! Do you guys have any suggestions? But I forgot to take pictures of this look so I can't post them here =[ But I'll post what I'm wearing!

Ray J & Kim Kardashian Sex Tape: Used to Improve Technique!
He tells talk show host Tyra Banks, "I would never watch that with one of my friends but I did watch it to watch my performance. It's kind of like a football game and afterwards you watch the game and see how you can get better at it."
That’s a good tip for all men out there, always try to improve…
