So as I told you all in my last post, I had some issues with my order from eyeslipsface.com. They emailed me back today (took about 3 days) and told me that they'd ship my correct products ASAP. I'm pleased with this response yet I'm a little cautious as to if they'll actually do it and how long it'll take. I was actually surprised by the response because after receiving the wrong order, I read a blog post that explained another fairly similar problem and e.l.f. gave her a difficult time. I wasn't expecting such an easy response but I'm glad it wasn't such a hassle with me! Stay tuned for another update! 
Update on E.l.f. Order Discrepancy

Happy Sunday everyone! I'm in a good mood today (yay!).. Here's a little recap of my week:
Last weekend I went horseback riding and tubing for the first time ever! For my best friend's 18th birthday we all went to Helen, GA to go horseback riding then tubing on the Chattahoochee River. First let me say that I grew up in New York before I moved to GA. The only time I ever saw a horse was at the zoo. And although we used to live right by the Atlantic Ocean and I can swim, I NEVER dared to actually get in the water (besides my feet). To this day, I still feel some type of way about any kind of natural water (oceans, rivers, lakes, etc.). I just don't feel safe in them. But I sucked all that up for my friend and went tubing for 2 hours on the Chattahoochee River. It wasn't so bad until I had to get out of my tube when I got stuck on rocks and such. I really tried to avoid getting out. The rocks were so slimy and there were fish (and we saw a few SNAKES) swimming around lol.. I just felt more comfortable IN the tube. I'm glad I did it instead of being a little punk though. Lol, but the horseback riding was SO peaceful and relaxing! The scenery was so beautiful and my horse (his name was Edowa) was so sweet! I was actually nervous when we got there and saw the horses up close.. I didn't even want to touch them but once I got on everything changed. I really, really would love to go again!
Also in the past week, me and my boyfriend got back together. I didn't tell you guys that we even broke up lol.. but we did about 2/3 weeks ago. His 18th birthday was on Thursday (September 13th) and we got back together the next day. I'm not really surprised about it.. I knew that things were just too overwhelming for a little while for us to be together but now that we've settle down and adjusted, everything's fine!
Now for the cons of my week. So, last weekend I took advantage of e.l.f.'s online sale/deal. If you spent $20 dollars on any products you were eligible to win the fall favorites collection for free with a code that they gave you. I was very excited about this because I needed new products and brushes so it was an awesome deal for me! I did everything that was required and confirmed my order (which only came to $26.95 with shipping, normally would be about $50). It took about a week for my package to come but I was really happy when it came.. until I opened the box. I recieved all the items I actually paid for but they did not give me my free fall favorites collection. Instead they gave me a whole bunch of other products I did not order or intend on getting. I was very confused and disappointed by this so I checked the website. On the fall favorites collection product page, it did say that if items were out of stock they would be substituted. But, the items weren't out of stock when I ordered them. This made me angry so I sent a LONG email to customer service and I am currently waiting for a reply. I will keep you all updated with this discrepancy! But, on the other hand, I am very pleased with the products I did recieve (correctly):
I've already done my nails (inspiration on Pinterest) and used the makeup and seem to have no problem with it (yet). Speaking of Pinterest, I would love if you all followed me at lovekiara and on Instagram at lovekiara as well! And that basically concludes my week.. Hope you all are having a great day!

My Boring Labor Day
This is what happens when you don't have Labor Day plans *thumbs down* P.S. Dogs make silly faces too!
Fear
I'm a runner. I run away from people. I run from myself. I run away from reality. I run away from decisions. I run away from my problems. My problems that I'm not brave enough to face. Problems that I either don't know how or don't want to deal with. I don't want to be wrong. I don't want to know certain things but I don't want to not know certain things. I don't want to not have total control. Whenever I don't feel like I have an option or plan that I'm mostly comfortable with, I feel belittled. I feel minimized in control because I can't see the finish line. I don't know what an outcome might be. Sometimes I linger, and wait for change. Change in my situation. I try to wait for time to take it's toll and then, and only then, will I make my move. I don't wait for long, being the impatient person I am. If I'm lucky, my temporary patience will work in my favor and change will come. But sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes I end up doing something I'm all too familiar with. Running, leaving things incomplete, not interested in an ending or closure. Just like a coward.
My fear is fear.
My fear is fear.
