Wild French Manicure

By "wild", I don't mean like..."oh look there's another French Revolution".  By "wild", I really mean...wild animals.  Animals that you find in the wild.  I think this picture speaks more than I can explain:


There is a different animal on each of my nails, and I will be giving you guys close ups, so be prepared for a picture heavy post!  Read more about my manicure after the jump :)

Contrast Boldly

Hello friends!  I hope you guys are all doing wonderful :) meanwhile, school is going...it's going.  BUT I'M WORKING IN A RESEARCH LAB NOW SO THAT'S EXCITING BECAUSE SCIENCE CAN I GET AN "AMEN"?

But for now, here is a shot of my nails!



Yeah colors that are not the same!  Oh, and let's not forget that little flower that's resting on my ring finger!  I shall tell you more about this manicure after the jump :)

SoCal Energy

I'm officially back in sunny southern California now!  And I'm very happy to finally be reunited with the other colors of nail polish that I own.  Colors are wonderful.  Everything is wonderful.



I attend school at Los Angeles, which is a very busy city.  It's so full of energy.  Just even being at LAX and listening to all the conversations going on around you is fun.  The people in this city give it life, and so my nail art was partly inspired by the energy surrounding me.

More on the manicure after the jump! :)

Dark and Granite

Hello again, friends!  It's been a week since the year has started and I think I've been doing a pretty good job with my resolutions.  Granted, I haven't been practicing writing with my left hand every day, but I'm at that point now where I can write linear capital letters decently and not cringe (my A's used to look like sad mounds that needed hugs).

I'm going back to school soon (yay...), so this will be my last manicure at home before I leave.  Which is both exciting and scary because all my nail polishes are back at school but so are all of my academic nightmares.



I will tell you about this manicure after the jump! :)

Silver Dots on Matted Plum

Hello friends, new and old!  Welcome to my first post of ever.  Additionally, welcome to this new year :) if you haven't made any New Year's resolutions, now would be the time to do so!

I have made three resolutions this year:
1. To run this blog and incorporate it into my life
2. To write more with my left hand (so that I become ambidextrous)
3. To make a fruit smoothie a day!

And hopefully I can keep all three resolutions.  I used to be the type to make like 10 resolutions a year and keep none of them, so I'm only making 3 resolutions this year in the hopes that I keep all of them!  Anyways, onto the nails that I have painted:



My nails are simple, just like my resolutions :) I will tell you more about them after the jump!
