My First Real Makeup Tutorial

2011-12-05T17:27:00.000-08:00

I was super shy and nervous to do this. It's not really my thing, but I've had way too many requests to not do it. So basically I'm starting to make tutorial because of you guys :)

I hope you enjoy it and I know next time I will loosen up and not seem so monotone in the videos lol

Get wet with "JAMES BROWN SWEAT"

2010-07-16T22:53:00.000-07:00

So my sister in law and i went to support my friend Nick at this super cute tiki bar in Miami called Mai Kai. He was dj'ing and it was so cool. I love his DJ name also, its "James Brown Sweat". The people that were there and the music he was plalying was so old school, i loved it. The bar was filled with so much character, i took pics of everythingggggggg, and the bathroom was beautiful....or maybe i was that drunk lol.
i had so much fun and here are some pics i took :)

I will try to do more post like this where i actually tell you what i have on my face and what you can use to achieve this look, its just hard for me to find time, juggling a full time job, freelance photography, my 16 month old baby and a new business endeavor. But never the less, i will make it my business to do this everytime. Thanks so much for coming to my page i love seeing more hits on my page every day :)
i also promised a pretty young lady that i would make a video on how to achieve a winged eyeliner and i've been slacking on that. i gotta say tho, i have tried to do it i just feel so uncomfortable being recorded and i end up erasing it and putting it off for later. ima get the ball rolling on that too.

Facechart

2010-05-02T15:29:00.001-07:00

Here's a facechart I did today, I'm not sure what inspired it but here it goes:

I think I have a thing for balls.
Ginny asked how I would do the lips on a real person n answer is that I would do the whole look exactly how it looks on paper. I did the lips real quick on myself, here's a pic:

I'll be doing the complete look on a real face soon n post pics ofcourse :)

So my very good friend Ginny has a boyfriend who is starting up his own tennis magazine with his brother and they have asked me to join the team as their photographer. Ofcourse I'd love to, even tho i know nothing about tennis and i dont really think that my style is that for tennis, i still would love to. so today Ginny and i got together and took some shots of Ginny and tried to incorporate tennis in the shots. we were really stumped at first, but i had invited Bea to come over, she always gets me going and when i start getting into a momentum then Ginny just feeds off of it. Ginny is a makeup artist aswell, just a fyi. Bea had an idea of Ginny's hair and tennis balls and we just winged it. here are the shots.

My lunch break

2010-04-22T17:02:00.000-07:00

Yesterday Beatriz came with me to work, she was suppose to go job hunting and i was gonna do her makeup. instead, i decided to do something different and she was down with it. she asked for the lady gaga look in her telephone video, the scene in the jail yard. i did the extended eyebrow but she was like, "hell no, im not walking thru the mall like this" and i agreed, so i took it off.

we ended up driving to mcdonalds for my lunch break and i took a couple of shots of her in the car while she ate her lunch. i had a sunday :)

anyways, here are the pics.

p.s. i take a lot of pics of Bea because im always with Bea :)

Ginette

2010-04-22T16:58:00.000-07:00

This is Ginette, shes my co-worker. she wanted me to do her makeup and i said sure, id love to :)

she clocked out and came and sat down and when i asked her what look she wanted, she wasnt really sure bc she hadnt thought about it. so i asked her if she wanted an everyday look, something she'd never do again, something sexy, and Angie who was watching said to do something she would never do again and Ginette said she wanted me to do something she can duplicate. so i decided to do a very smokey eye and play up her cheek bones.

shes so cute, she was such a good sport. love you Ginette xoxoxo

Spring/Summer must haves

2010-03-10T21:38:00.000-08:00

So a lot of new exciting makeup goodies are coming out for the new season. i've tried a couple of them and i'm in love! i just had to share these with you, here we go ;)

first off is a to die for product, its by NARS, just when you thought you had enough orgasm, they always amaze you with a new goodie.

NARS Orgasm Illuminator $29.

Umm, i saw this and my jaw dropped its so freaking beautiful. Estee surprised me with this one, its a liquid eyeshadow that stays on and its so vibrant. i absolutely love it. its got a nice long wear also. LOVE!! they come in 3 other colors too.

Estee Lauder Limited Edition Liquid eyeshadows from the Bronze Goddess collection in Aquaflash $17.50

This lipstick is gorgeous!! at first i was like ehhh, its cute and then

i tried it on, its got so much pigment and its so opaque with a little sheen. i love this color, its like a pale lavender, this has got to look great with a fierce tan!

MAC Liberty of London Lipstick in Blooming Lovely $14.

also check out some other MAC lipstick colors like Morange(bright orange), and Ruby Woo(a matte true blue red), these two shades are must haves!

For all you self tanners out there, you gotta try this new Clarins Self Tanner. we all know that Clarins is known for their line of self tanners, so it wasnt a surprise when they came out with a self tanner that doesnt smell like a self tanner. its the

Delicious Self Tanning Cream $42.

this one next is one of my staple products. its something i cant be without. its bobbi bronzer in the shade deep. deep is the darkest shade and i wear that shade because i really like to contour the shit out of my face and i can really get a nice soft dramatic well blended look with this bronzer, its also matte which is great because i can easily put a MAC Beauty Powder as a highlight or that new NARS Orgasm Illuminator.Bobbi Brown Bronzing Powder in Deep $33

LOVE these new Blush Duo's by MAC. in 6 new shades, these are great for spring/summer. dont forget these are limited.

MAC Mineralized Blush Duo $23.

this new brush is essential, i loved the original #188 and #187 brush, and didnt think that it

needed to be different, but MAC released their new #130 brush about 3 weeks ago and i use it everyday, i love it! it gives a nice streakless finish. you can use it for liquid, cream, powdered foundations, you can use it for you emollients such as serums and moisturizers, its perfect for your tinted moisturizer. i totally love this brush and need another one for my kit.

MAC #130 Short Duo Fiber Brush $38.

everytime a biggie song comes on it instantly takes me back to being a kid listening to hot 97 or watching mtv/bet. i knew of hip hop because its what i grew up on, my dad put me on to Grandmaster Flash, Sugar Hill Gang etc. i didnt understand the extremity of the whole "east coast" "west coast" war, all i knew was that i was from the east and that west side music was not appealing to me at all. so i would always change the channel/station when west side music came on. later on then i started to appreciate snoop, dre and tupac. but even tho i listenened to hip hop, there was something different about the whole biggie era. its like hip hop was at its best! every song was a banga! i wanted to learn every word to every song of biggies and i did. i remember one new years eve, i think it was either 95 going on 96 or 96 going on 97 and hot 97 always had a count down for the top 100 songs of the year. me and my sister recorded pretty much the whole count down in our tape recorder radio, shit was a Casio...WHAT!! lol i think we still have that tape, point is that there was like 6 biggie songs in that countdown and like 20 other bad boy songs, that had to of been the best year in hip hop.

i remember March 9th, 1997. i was getting dressed for school(8th grade) and had MTV on when they stopped their regularshow and MTV news came on, it was that john(older vj) talking bout how biggie was shot and dead. it was weirdcause i didnt think much of it till i was in class just sitting there thinking like damn yo, like thats it...just like that.i can say that ive never shed a tear for any celebrity but biggie. jay z would probably be the next.

i've been wearing my NOTORIOUS bracelet all week :D

here are some of my biggie all time faves!!! in no order but the first one is my #1

We miss you Biggie!!!

either way, here it is...i named it "I "Whoopi'd" her" because Whoopi Goldberg has no eyebrows, duh!

We're listening to BP3, it's Julissa's first time hearing it :)

Style Black

2009-09-24T22:42:00.000-07:00

So I worked today and I was very excited for a number of reasons. First Julissa(@Lyssen) was coming over today!!!

That's her! She flew in today from NY. Second, Style Black launched today at all MAC stores and counters. I got to play with the whole line and I must've changed my lips like 5 times because there's so much to play with. I ended up wearing their new Greasepaint Stick on my lips which is black. Here's some pics!

It's a great line, ya should stop by MAC and have fun. I wore a foundation a bit darker than my skin color because I didn't wanna look too gothic with the black lips. After wearing the black lips I noticed that I didn't look gothic at all. What do u think??

Black

2009-09-24T09:18:00.000-07:00

So I can't

2009-09-23T15:25:00.001-07:00

So I can't fully express myself without having some haters! It's crazy, like can I just do me and u not mind me? Am I that special or are you just that pathetic. I can only imagine how much more extravagant and bold I would be had I been a star in the limelight. I always thought I'd be famous. But you know what, it's good that I'm not because i dont think i could handle being scrutinized by the public. It's sad tho!

2009-09-20T20:50:00.001-07:00

It's nice to see someone follow me, even tho I don't know who you are.
I read what you wrote, doesn't mean that I value what you have to say but it is definitely very interesting to see it from an outsiders pov. And I must stress "outsider".
You say it's amazing to see so many of my friends not push me or advise me into your defintion of good. Do u even know me personally? Have u met me before? Have we hung out before? Because if you knew me you would know that I don't have many friends. I know a lot of people but I only have very few friends aside from my husband and sister.
As I continued to read I knew you didn't know me personally when you called my husband an idiot, anyone who knows my husband knows that he loves me very much and that he wouldn't contribute to my "downfall" or help me "destroy my health n value". I wonder what downfall you speak of. What kind of a failure do you take me for?
You say this wasn't about judging me or it not being about god but you made it pretty clear that you are judging me and that all this was about god.
I find it disrespectful for you to talk about my son and I. You have no clue what my life is like, you might read what I post on Twitter but you don't know my sons life, you don't know what happens in these walls, so for you to take up so much time to write what you wrote based on what you've read about me is amazing to me. It's amazing to me that you really think you are not judging me. My son is loved by both me and my husband, and there is no one in this world that will love him more. My son has it better bc I AM HIS MOTHER!!! You get that thru your head!
It's clear you live a different lifestyle than mine, and have different beliefs than I do and that's absolutely fine. I don't live my life for others to approve or disapprove. I live my life the way I want to! You can live yours the way you want to. But I would never have the nerve to bash somebody elses life the way you just did.
I could careless what unique is to YOU! Noone asked for your opinion.
You really think that I'm empty inside or confused and that that is the reason why I smoke weed. It's not! I smoke bc it is my own personal preference. It's what I like to do to unwind at the end of the day. It relaxes me. I'm not even sure why I'm explaining myself to someone so fucking closed minded, someone so ignorant. Someone who actually had the balls to tell me that my lifestyle is an abomination. It's people like you that I can't stand. People who believe that their way of thinking or living is the right way. That what they believe in is right. I am sexualy open, I'm open with everything, hence my fucking blog, that does not make me a bad person. Yes, you are right, I am worth alot, I am beautiful and talented, I'm a fucking great person! That is why you follow me isn't it? You like to see a glimpse at my life.
You asked what good has come from me doing things my way besides surviving. I'll tell you what. I am living, I do what I want when I want, I have the balls to do what others aren't doing, I live the way I want to not the way society believes I should, I am happy, I am free, I do what I love for a living, how many people can say that? I'm following my dreams, I love my life, I'm creative I know what I want, I am my own person, I am original, I've seen and experiences so much, I am inspiring, I am beautiful and talented I'm not just surviving, I am LIVING!!! And I rather my son be just like me than be some uptight, closed minded, judgemental, traditional, unoriginal prick like yourself.
You continue to have fun on your journey in my life!

I want to....

Visit Paris! I want to travel! I want to do something drastic! I want to show my son things/places I've never seen! I want to live like I've always dreamed of! I want to party like a rockstar! I want to make a change somehow! I want to inspire! I want to grow! I want to teach! I want to leave a mark! I want to experience! I want to explore! I want to be remembered!

I miss you!

Minnie Me

Tinted Moisturizer

2009-09-16T22:33:00.001-07:00

M.A.C. Moisture Tint SPF 15
Sheer coverage
Natural-Satin finish
$29.50

I know most women don't like to wear foundation, "it's too heavy for everyday." is usually the reason why. I personally never had a problem wearing foundation if I was leaving the house. Since I started wearing makeup I've always applied foundation along with the rest of my makeup. That was until I was introduced to M.A.C.'s new line of tinted moisturizers.
This product debuted last month at M.A.C. counters/stores everywhere. I found it weird that M.A.C. had never came out with a tinted moisturizer and I was very excited to try it. M.A.C. had this other product called Select Tint which I guess would be comparable to the tinted moisturizer, however I can't really give you my thought on the Select Tint because I've never used it. I like a fuller coverage.
I made myself a sample of two of their tinted moisturizer shades (medium & medium dark) and I took them home to try. I was going to the pool when I decided to try it for the first time, I really hate wearing makeup to the pool so I thought this would be a perfect time to try it. I gotta say I was very impressed by not only the coverage but also by the finish it gives. It's a sheer coverage but I'd say it's sheer-medium coverage, plus if you finish it with the Miniralized Skin Finish Powder you'll get even more coverage.
It totally evened out my skin tone and made my skin look fresh and healthy. It looked like I wasn't wearing any makeup and because it looked so natural i didn't need to wear any concealer.
I ended up not making it to the pool because my son endedl up falling asleep and we hate waking him.

My pro - looks natural, feels natural and evens out my skin tone.
My con - melts off and turns a lighter color when u sweat or wet your face if you don't apply a powder over it.

My life-The Timeline

2009-09-06T22:17:00.000-07:00

I'm laying down on my living room floor aside my very prego friend Yese n her man Chris(seizure guy). I'm feeling pretty weird, I actually wish I had a blunt right now bc I'm thinking about this crazy life of mine. I have a ton of skeletons in my closet. Sometimes I wish I could let them all out so I could sleep at night, but that'll never happen.
As I lay here tho, I wonder where I'm gonna be 5 yrs from now because 5 yrs ago I would of never pictured myself married, living in Florida with a beautiful son. Life is crazy! Life is so crazy that if I think about it too much I really believe that I could literally drive myself crazy. So I try not to think about it much.
However, I'd like to share some of me with you. I personally think that I am an extremely unique person and maybe it's because of the things I've been thru, or it could just be that I was born this way. As the years pass, I realize my personality changing, my taste in everything changing, my intelligence changing, everything changing pretty much. And I wonder if I would be who I am today had one thing been different in my life. Like in the movie "Sliding Doors", where Gwenyth Paltrow misses a train and they show you what her life is like had she taken the train or if she would of missed it. Where would I be had I never moved to Florida back in '04? Had my mom never passed away? Had I never dropped out of school? I can only wonder tho.
Here's a time line of this somewhat crazy life of mine starting with High School(because my life was pretty normal before H.S.)

Sept. 1997-freshman @ catholic high school Aquinas.
-had sex with a girl

Oct. 1999- no longer a virgin

Nov. 1999-fell in love with Bubu

June 2000-kicked out of Aquinas on the last day of my junior year, right before the bell rung when I would be considered a senior.

Sept. 2000-Senior at Wahington Irving High School. This was one of the best times of my life. After leaving that all girls high school Aquinas, I attended Irving, a public school, a co-ed public school! It was like walking into the movie "Kids". All I did was hang out with the super cool crowd, started smoking cigs, cut school to have Freaky Friday parties @ my bff's house, got drunk for the first time, got high for the first time, triple kissed, pretty much experimented with my sexuality and everything else. I had a fucking blast!!!!

April 2001-got my heart broken into a million pieces.

June 2001-I'm suppose to graduate, instead I got kicked out of Irving. At this point I'm rebelling against my parents, I really don't get along with my dad, my mother and I are always arguing. My sister has her own crew which I always envied. It was just a mess at my house. Outside of my house I seemed like the happiest most care free person, but I hated going home. My parents were very strict.

July 2001-I'm 18

Aug. 2001-my mother finds out she has Colon cancer. They give her 6months-2yrs. I had just turned 18 and there wasn't anyone that could tell me anything bc I was "grown" now. I had a boyfriend named Freddy, he was 23 and had his own place, I was infatuated.

Sept. 2001-I started at a new school, West Side High School. What would my life be had I never attended this school. During my short time at West Side I tattooed Freddy's name on my lower abdomen. 9/11 happened, Freddy lost his job due to it and started hustling. Things weren't the same btwn us after that. He went to DR on vacation. While in DR, I was still attending West Side with a close friend of mine from Irving, Katie. She told me one day that a girl like me. That's when I met Joniece(Joe). From the second I met her I knew I liked her. We hung out and eventually slept together. Eventually Freddy and I broke up and Joniece and I saw more of each other.

Jan. 2002-Joniece and I make it official.
-My dad catches me making out with Joniece infront of my building. I begged him not to tell my mother but he did anyway and that night was horrible. We all got into a huge argument where my parents called me all types of names from a whore, slut, bitch, lesbo, I mean I heard it all that night. Joniece had a car and so getting around what easy. I ended up sleeping over her house alot and breaking my parents rules, which ofcourse one of them were, no sleeping over. I remember one night my dad said, "u spend so much time with her, why don't u just move out!" That same night I took a couple pillow cases, filled them with clothes and wrote my parents a letter telling them that I was moving out. Joe picked me up and I never slept at my parents house ever again. I stayed with Joe at her grandmas house in the BX. My father didn't speak to me for 9 months.

After I moved out, my life is pretty much a blurr from then to now. I rememer my mother always asking me to sleep over and spend the night, I never did. Although I knew she had cancer and knew the time she was given to live, I NEVER thought i would see my own mother die one day, let alone it being so soon.

Summer of 2002 - My sister and I almost drown at Atlantic City, lifeguards came to save us both.

Nov. 2002 - I start working for Sephora in Soho, my first makeup job. I always loved makeup but never knew that I would fall in love with it and I also didn't know I was naturally given the talent of making women beautiful. By this time Joe and I had our own place (a co-op her mom owned).

Jan. 1, 2003 - Minnie Me is born, my doggie. A Maltese/poodle.

April 5, 2003 - it was around 2:30am when I got the phone call from my dad that my mom died. She was in hospice at her apt so she died at home in the room where I would later have my son. I remember bits and pieces of that night and the day before, I had gotten a call at work that the hospice nurse came by the apt and told my dad and cousins that my mom has less than 2 days to live. I could go on with more details but really, I don't want to.
My mothers death didn't hit me till probably a month or so later. Calling her apt and her not picking up hit me hard. Ok I'll leave it there because the more I think about that period in my life, the more remorse and regret I have.

Nov. 2003 - Joe and I moved to Pennsylvania with her aunt Sophie. Sophie was the best and was somewhat of a motherfigure to me. We worked ay a ski resort.

Feb. 2004 - Joe and I take a road trip with 2 of her aunts to Florida. One of her aunts, Valerie had gotten a job offer in Florida at a mortgage company and we accompanied her on this road trip in hopes to find an apartment for her. We did. We also somehow manage to find me a job down there. Joe and I decided to take the offer and move on down to the sunshine state with her aunt. We shared an apt with Valerie and Valerie and I worked in the same place.

June 2004 - I lost my job bc I refused to flirt back with the guy that hired me. I made a scene at that job and got threatned to have the cops escort me out. I hated Florida! So the day before my 21st bday we decided to move back to NY.

Oct. 23, 2004 - Joniece breaks up with me out of the blue. No argument, no warning, just a simple "I don't want to be with you anymore." It hurt! It hurt bad! I had to leave her fathers house and move back to my dads, the apartment where my mom lived. When I left it was us 4(my mom, my dad, my sis and myself). I didn't know what it would be like to go back. I called Sophie and told her that her neice left me and she booked me a flight to Florida for that wknd to get away. While in Florida I end up getting a job with the same company that fired me earlier in the year. It seems the owner of the company got in to it with the ass that harrassed me and he fired him. So I went back to NY, tried to get back with Joe but she wasn't having it. I packe my shit and took me and my dog to Florida. I was alone, wasn't working bc the job offer fell thru when the owner found out I had threatned to sue the comapny back when they fired me. I didn't have a car, no friends and cried myself to sleep every night bc I was heart broken.
At this time also I experimented with drugs, acid, angel dust, special k, G, E.

Jan. 2005 - I met Ariel. He was like no other guy I had ever met.

April 3, 2005 - Ariel and I make it official.

Sept. 2005 - Ariel and I take a trip to NY. He asks my dad for my hand in marriage.

Nov. 5, 2005 - Ariel and I tie the knot and move in together(at his parents)

Mar. 25, 2006 - My wedding day and also one of the best wknd's of my life.

June 2006 - I leave my husband and moved out an hour away from him. Marriage hit me hard and I wasn't ready.

Sept. 2006 - Ariel and I work things out and I moved back. I left him once and I'll never leave him again. He is the love of my life and I will always be here for him.

Dec. 2007 - Moved to NY with hubby. We moved to my moms old apt with my sister and her boyfriend. It was cool but I knew my sisters boyfriend was not good for her, I thought maybe she would see how Ariel and I treat eachother and maybe she'd want something like that and leave her boyfriend.

May 7, 2008 - I find out I'm pregnant.

June 2008 - My sisters boyfriend gets locked up and is set to serve 4 years.

July 1st, 2008 - I turn 25.

Dec. 31, 2008 - Aiden Link Ramirez is born. 19 inches long, weighing 7lbs. 7oz.

Feb. 2009 - We get evicted from Apartment A but we went to court and won the case.

May 10, 2009 - Ariel and I take a trip with Aiden to Florida to surprise his mother with her new grandson.

May 12, 2009 - Apartment A gets raided. My sister was there. Ariel and I take this as a sign to move out and move to Florida.

July 1, 2009 - I turn 26 and lost my dog Minnie Me, he was exactly 6yrs and 6months old, to the day.

July 4, 2009 - Ariel, my sister and I move to Florida.

And here I am. Lisa ended up going back to NY to "visit". She has yet to return. Ariel and I finally have our own place, I absolutely love it.
Looking back at my life I do wish I had done alot of things different. I always use to say I have no regrets but I'd be lying if I still said that. I do love my life tho. It's been a good interesting life. I wonder what tomorrow has in store for me and where I'm going to be 5 years from now and 10 years from now for that matter. Regardless where ever I am I know that I will always have two boys in my life that will always love me and vice versa. And that is more than I could ever ask for.

Is it right or is it wrong?

2009-08-08T17:31:00.000-07:00

If u like a dude but he has a girlfriend for a couple years now, like 5yrs. They're sex life sucks, so he fucks the next chick. Resulting in a better sex life with his girl.
Is it right or wrong to fuck a guy when you're enjoying it and its benefiting him and his girl(better sex life at home?)
If his girl fucks him right will he not stray?

I love art

2009-08-08T17:21:00.001-07:00

So I recently moved into a new apartment about a month ago. We have no furniture and no wall treatments. I've been surfing the web looking for some inspiration in art to decided how I wanna furnish/decorate my apartment. One day I want my apartment to have all white walls and white furniture with sharp colored accessories to give that futuristic feel, the next day I want to have graffiti on the walls and bubble furniture, day after that I want an Eco friendly apartment, etc. I just can't decide. But regardless what I end up choosing, I always end up liking the same type of art work/photography. I think I will buy diff pieces of art and decorate my apartment based on my art.
Here are some pictures of artwork/photography that tickles my fancy.

I once saw this super cool ottoman/stool/table and I've been waiting for it to be available to the public to buy. Although it has yet to be for sale, the creator of this cool table chair thingy has created a part 2 of it.
It's called the BoxPig. Here's are some pics of it.

I absolutely love this piece.

The artist name is Kristian Kluver and this is his BoxPig part 2.

I can't wait till these things go for sale, I'm definitely gonna hav to pick them up. I read that he he's only getting warmed up, these are only two of a series of them. I can't wait to see more.

I wanna know tho, what's the big fucking deal with Chipotle? I mean I've never had it but EVERYONE raves about it. Look at these two hogs grubbing.

Ofcourse I didn't join them in their Chipotle feast, I made my way to Pollo Tropical and had plain white rice with plain chicken breast. What can I say, I'm a plain girl .

Kareoke night gone wrong.

2009-08-05T12:20:00.001-07:00

So my friend Chris and Yesi invited us to go kareokeing at Duffys tonight. We got a babysitter for the night and had a bottle of Goose ready to get loose. We got to my in laws house and I took a couple of shots before heading to Duffys. I was feeling nice upon arriving to our kareoke night.
I see Yesi n Chris and we(Ariel, Lisa-sister, Joel-bro in law) walked over to them.
Now Yesi is my fellow MAC girl. We freelanced together and that's how we met. I was there the night she met Chris and it's been Yesi n Chris ever since. Yesi is very outspoken, straight to the point type of girl, I love that about her. Chris is very friendly and is a "presentao", he's like a know it all. Never the less, that's my favortie couple to hang out with.
So this was gonna be one of our fun nights, and Lisa & Joels first kareoke night with us. One of our nights together we got into a fight and Yesi ended up biting a whole in the girls cheek, lmao!
So me and Chris n Lisa go up to sing "got money"-t pain & lil wayne. We were the auto tuners and Chris was the rapper. So mid way thru the song, Chris is missing his lines and I'm looking at him confused but not concerned because he probably doesn't know some of the words.
Songs over. Next up was me and Lisa and we were gonna sing "can't nobody hold me down"- Diddy and Mase. We ripped it! But I see Yesi come up to the stage and walk past us to Chris leaning on the window. He felt nauseous and wanted to throw up. He couldn't get up either. I've never seen Chris sick nor able to be in control. He asked for a waste basket but he didn't throw up. Next up to sing was this older man and he sang "Dead or Alive". After him it was Lisa and I's turn and it was also the last song of the night. We sang "The Boy is Mine"-Brandy & Monica. Again, we ripped it, but Chris was still leaning on the window sill not feeling well. I went over to him after our sing and rubbed his back and asked him what was wrong. He looked me straight in the eye with this confused concerned look and said, "I have no idea, that was the weirdest thing, I've never felt that before." Maybe you're pregnant I said jokingly to try to make him feel better. He chuckled.
Duffy's was closing so we all met outside, it was only 12am and we were all ready to keep the night going. Plus, Benny has weed and we're ready to smoke. We decided to go to Blue Boar, this local bar me and Ariel and Yesi and Chris use to always go to before we moved to NY. Everyone gets in their cars and off to Blue Boar we go. Beatriz starts crushing weed in the backseat and we realize that she's underaged and won't be able to get into Blue Boar, since we have a sitter for the night we redirect everyone to my place. Apt. A style.
We all arrive to my house and we put the music on, turned on the Halo and we all start having a great time. The guys were playing Halo and I see Nino's girlfriend playing too, supercool! Me and Yesi are talking makeup, I brought out some Z!nk magazines and "confessions of a window dresser" and we were talking industry talk. Lisa and Bea just listened to us. Nino and Chris are listening to some videos on my iPhone and everyones just vibing so well. I was having a great time, not to mention how great I was feeling after we smoked.
All of a sudden the night took a turn for the worse. I was sitting on our coffee table, across from me was Yesi, Lisa n Bea and to the right of Yesi was Chris Nino n his girl. I see Chris do this weird fall, he fell foward and hit the back of his head against the coffee table right next to me. He falls on the floor on his back and starts shaking. He looks real stiff and he had this facial expression that almost made it look like he was joking. For a couple seconds I really thought he was joking. Yesi goes straight to grab him and she's talking to him but he's not responding. I'm in such shock that I didn't even know what to do. Yesi yells out please help him call 911. I snap back into reality and turn around to the coffee table to look for a phone. I grab a sidekick and I'm so overwhelmed at this point that I couldn't figure out how to use that shit. Nino's girlfriend hands me her phone and I call the cops. Someone starts yelling "he's foaming out the mouth". I've never seen anything like this so I start panicking. The cop is so patient on the phone and asking me 21 questions and transferring me here and there. They asked if he was breathing and he was. They said to put him on his side and we did. He's still seizing tho. Yesi is going crazy, she can't stop crying and yelling for 911 to hurry. At one point I see Lisa run out of the living room shaking her hands and looked like she was about to cry. Nino is over Chris trying to get his attention and open his mouth so that Chris doesn't swallow his tounge. He snaps back finally but he has no cool what just happened. He's still in the floor and hasn't said a word. Nino tells him to try and grab something and I see Chris try to grab his like jeans so immediately I knew he would be ok. I tell Yesi he's fine but she's hysterical. The whole time I felt so weird in this situation. It almost felt like a dream and I couldn't comprehend what the fuck was going on. I tries to get a hold of myself so that I can be there for Yesi but I was so scared and in disbelief of what was going on. I went over to Chris again and he was blinking and was able to respond now but still seemed in a daze. Finally the paramedics arrive and Chris sits up and he had to throw up. Nino gets him the waste basket and Chris hurls. They take him in the ambulance and Yesi, Nino and his girl go to the hospital.
So it's me, Ariel, Benny, Joel, Lisa and Bea left at the crib. Still it feels like what happened didn't really just happen. We start talking about what happened. I thought he started seizing when he hit the table. The whole time Yesi was crying she kept telling me, thank god we were here thank god we were here. And I couldn't understand bc had they of not been here he would of never hit his head and started seizing. But after talking about it with them, he was already seizing when he was falling. Which is why he fell so weird. His fall was slow and he just fell, like he didn't react to his fall, he didn't put out his hand so that he doesn't hurt himself or try to stop himself from falling, he just fell. We exchaged stories and then Joel left.
We rolled a small blunt and smoked, then Benny & Bea left. It was 3:40am. Ariel n I went to our room n Lisa to hers.
The lights were off and I couldn't sleep thinking about Chris and that fall and his face while he was seizing, I'm cringing now as I type. A few minutes after laying in bed Chris texts us if we're up bc they had to pick up Yesi's car at our place. He replied yes and we get up. Lisa comes to our room when she hears we're still up and she tells us how she can't sleep, she's crying. I tell her they're on their way here.
They came, Chris looked fine. We ended up all going to Dennys and finshed the night with a full stomach and some good laughs.
What a mothetfucking scary night.
Chris ended figuring out what caused the seizure. He had taken some Zoloft his brother left at his crib. That caused his saratona levels to be irregular which cause his seizure. I'm just glad he was among friends and we were all in some way able yo help.
Kareoke night gone wrong yet once again.

Pool Closed

2009-08-04T20:05:00.001-07:00

So I woke up around noon and I had to feed the baby. Immediately I looked outside to see if it would be a rainy or sunny day, the sky couldn't be any clearer. I told Ariel we're out to the pool, so I hopped in the shower and shaved it all, put on my bathing suit and we were ready to go.
Pool Closed was what we saw when we were about to put the key in to......you know what I'm twisted right now going to kareoke night at Duffy's, fuck what happened earlier!!!!

Here's a pic of me mad at Ariel because he did t wanna leave "I'll make love to u" on the radio!!
