Clothes & MU

Thursday, November 19, 2009

This afternoon I got two flat microdermal piercings on my back, just under my neck. Then something scary happened when I got home. I was in the bathroom with my brother explaining to him how to clean the piercings for me then my hands and arms began to tingle and when I looked up into the mirror my vision was gone.

The next thing I remember was staring at the mirror again and everything was really faint and grainy, my vision only came back when I sat down. My brother told me I was about to fall and began shaking and he held me upright for about 5mins until it stopped. I wasn't scared or nervous before I blacked out, it just sort of happened out of the blue.
Has this ever happened to anybody before? Did I just faint? Did my piercings have anything to do with it?

Apart from that, I'm happy I got the dermals done. The one on my right is just perfect but the one on my left seems a bit alleviated, I think I have to go back for another painful adjustment. The adjustments were the worst part of the whole procedure :( I have to put spot bandaids on them for the next 2 weeks, hopefully they heal fast and everything turns out a-ok!

And now here is the major haul bomb! I've been so busy I haven't been home in time to take the photos in natural light so the majority of these piccies aren't in the best quality :(

First with the MU

The Ladakh & Anise buys were from the sale. I know I was meant to notify when the next sale was going to be but it was mid-exam time and I had no clue until the morning of the sale by Wendy's morning wake-up call LOL

Now to explain the extensive haul like I said I would.. I did mention that the boyf had a lucky turn at roulette, he managed to score himself enough for the home entertainment system he'd been wanting and a shopping spree for his girlf :) I don't remember exactly which items of clothing were from the spree but I can tell you that I was given a limit to spend within a 1 day span and it was a lot more stressful then it was bliss! The bliss only set in when the shopping bags arrived home but my conscience was still weak, I had myself a shopping hangover the next day even though I knew most things were courtesy of a Star City cheque haha. I'm satisfied though, the shoes really put the icing on the cake and to my Paulfish - this Christmas, next Valentines, Anniversary, Birthday.. whatever the occasion.. I would not be able to accept another gift from you. I would like a card though.... actually write me a nice letter.. LOL

My amateur nail art isn't coming far along, I realized while doing Fiona's nails the other day- I do not have steady hands! I was trembling with the deco pens and kept ruining the nails :( but it felt good to have a nice girly day of shopping and nails. I did the leopard print on Tammy using Great Barrier Beige, V and Black LA colours art pen, blue/black on Fiona using For Audrey & Black LA colours art pen and the white/black on myself using Liquid Leather and White on white ..yes, that last hand with the ugly wrinkly fingers are mine :(

  13. Lucky you with the items you got :) And that's great that your bf got the home entertainment system he's been eyeing! I like so many things in your haul - but I've been wondering about that Chanel foundation for some time. Can you let us know what you think of it after time?
    I actually haven't heard of microdermal piercing before and just looked it up on google. Sorry to hear about your black out experience - that sounds really scary but I'm glad you're fine now. I hope the adjusment if you need it, goes smoothly. I only have two body piercings and the only negative experience I have had was that one got infected (had to get it re-done about half a year later once it healed) and one of my ear piercings got infected and had to get it surgically removed (yep, sounds bad but luckily it went well). No black outs/fainting like you experienced though.
    Fionna and Tammy's nails look amazing! I thought it was a stick on one you bought since it looks so well done ;)

  14. omg the clothes you bought are so amazingly pretty!
    i want everythinggggggg that you bought, not even joking aha, you are so lucky. I wish my boyfriend has such luck
    but oh jeezy the fainting thing is horrible, hope your ok now :)

  22. ooo shit, I love the nails, don't doubt yourself, your good. My hands tremble sometimes when I'm doing my nails too. But w/e.

    About the shaking & loss of eyesight, when you got your piercings, did you lose alotta blood? loss of blood can make you weak. If not, the blurriness coulda been astigmatism. W/e the case. Hope your good, & I'm loving all the new shoes!

  26. Lucky girl you! And I've never heard of anyone having that reaction from a surface piercing. It sounds unrelated. If it happens again make sure to get it checked out!!

  32. put photos of your piercing up pleaseeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  33. agrees with comment above :)

    ReplyDelete
  34. Haha I always do that! I always buy people something that I would like and then end up wanting to keep everything! Kitten is really really pretty :). I highly recommend it!

    Also, was your smudge pots dry-ish? I found my one I bought from SNET was kind of dry. I'm kind of disappointed in it because I had really high expectations. Maybe I should scrape off the first layer with a spatula :S. I found the Fluidline and BB gel liner much more moist on the first application.

    Omg dw, if you're a pedo! I'm def a pedo considering I'm older than you! But he's dating Taylor Swift I think and she was born in Dec 1989 :). SO HE LIKES OLDER WOMEN! BAHAH.

  35. Also love, I was so inspired by your lippie haul from NYX! And plus after I watched about 20 Youtube swatch/review videos, I had to order a few of my own. I was really impartial to their lipglosses.. how would you rate NYX lippies?
