SDCC Returning Reg: Success!

This past weekend, I woke up early on Saturday morning to participate in Returning Registration for this year's SDCC. As usual, my friends and I got on a conference call and waited for our fates with the spinning blue circle of doom (AKA the virtual waiting room for badges). Last year I got a 4-day first, then upgraded to 4-day with Preview Night during Open Registration. I wasn't so lucky getting in early enough to get badges for others, but majority of my group came out with a few 4-day with Preview Night (myself included thanks to one of them) and 4-day badges. The rest were mainly Thursday & Sunday since that was all that were left after over a half hour online. The process for all of us went rather smoothly, with most of our badges being purchased within 10-20 minutes after 9:00 am. I can rest easy for now, but after Open Registration next month, I'll have to plan out my list for the hotel sale. Luckily I won't have to worry about having to get a parking permit!

Hello Kitty Cafe Truck at Santana Row

Image
Before heading to a bbq in the afternoon, much of my morning was spent waiting for the Hello Kitty Cafe truck at Santana Row in San Jose. This was the 3rd of 4 stops it would be making in the Bay Area for April. It was at the Cherry Blossom Festival a few weeks prior. That was where I saw it for the first time last year. Long story short, I was the first person in line for their Northern California debut, and it was totally unplanned. I knew I'd be there early, but not so much that everyone else had no clue where to find them. Goes to show that researching ahead of time (and also several years of experience at SD Comic Con) pays off! Although I wasn't first this time, I did happen to be among the first 10 people in line. Lucky number 7 to be exact. 2 other friends joined me before the truck opened for business. I didn't have too much of a haul planned, but I did want to get my friend one of their mugs as a belated bridal shower gift. I also got her one of the cookie sets,...

Urban Decay Mini Haul

Image
I'm currently in the middle of a no-buy for this month. Been doing a-OK so far, but of course I have a list going of things I'd like to purchase once it's done. Here are a few items that I've purchased from Urban Decay's site last month. L-R: NAKED nail color in Instinct, Vice Liquid Lipstick in Amulet, Vice Liquid Lipstick in Trivial NAKED Nail Color in Instinct - When UD's nail color line released, this shade sold out for a while. It was finally re-stocked last month, so I made sure to jump on it. The shade, a medium pink taupe with hint of pearl, is very pretty. Now I know why it flew out of their inventory.  Vice Liquid Lipsticks in Amulet and Trivial - I didn't go overboard when the Vice Liquid Lipsticks came out, but I will say that these have awesome staying power and comfortable wear. I own Amulet in both tube and liquid forms because this brick rose shade is LIFE. You won't blame me once you see the swatch! Trivial is a pink nude, a...
