I just had to post this.

I watched the encore telecast of Glee's opening episode for Season 2 awhile ago.  I'm actually reluctant to watch this show because I'd rather finish off paperworks before watching the evening news.  However, since it's been a while since I tapped the tsismosa (gossiper) side of me, I decided to give in and find out why millions of viewers gush over Glee (and Charice being casted on this show).

And I wasn't disappointed.  I vaguely know the storyline and its characters, but it amused me to see Jane Lynch so funny and bitchy.  Haha.  And the new football coach is so aliw (amusing), too.  I feel that despite not being an avid fan, I was able to relate to everything.


It felt like I was watching 90210 again way back high school days.  But this time, Jason Priestly, Shannon Doherty and the rest of the gang were gifted singers.


And Charice... oh I loved her.  I used to not care about her before, but her casting on glee (or is she just guesting on the show? Ooooh, I hope not) was such a redemption.  She actually redeemed herself from a lot of fellow Pinoys who shrug their shoulders and wince at the sound of her name (and her voice na rin, sige).


I got goosebumps seeing her act and sing on the show... 





Have you seen this episode today, too?  Loved it or hated it?  What are your thoughts on Charice joining Glee? Would love to know!

I've told you about my boyish sister's transformation several posts ago.  Lara of NARS Shang did her makeup and hairdo and she looked totally stunning.

A couple of months ago, she had an event she needed to go to and we no longer had Lara around.  And so, half-heartedly (i can tell!), she obediently entrusted me to 'transform' her.

Grabbed this pic from her facebook page.  This makeover surprised her friends and they wanted to keep a memento of it.   They even made an effort to create this fancy pic.

This is her on normal days:

With Ate's Makeover (this was 3 hours after the party already and the cheek makeup's no longer visible):

Aromaleigh finishing powder in peaches n cream applied with Charm stippling brush
EYES: In2it eyebrow powder using my bleak angled brow brush

no eyeshadows, i'm still a newbie with it
Freshlook contact lens
CHEEKS and LIPS: Nichido pink blush (forgot the name)
 The Bodyshop Lip and Cheek Tint on lips

It was such a simple makeup that I did considering she was going to a function where practically all the ladies were glammed up.  We had no time to visit the salon and my poor sister was hoping I could help her with her look.

I don't think I failed, did I?
