Cheap Pearls

I'm not much of a fake pearls girl (maybe with the exception of grotesquely falling-off-the-lobes pearls).

Originally $80, this pair of cultured pearls can be yours for 15 bucks. Too good of a deal to pass on.

Droid > Texas Instruments

I've lost multiple scientific calculators and after my last one I couldn't justify buying another calculator to lose.  For my econ final and all my lab reports, I used my cell phone.  On my old phone, I couldn't do more complex functions...but DROID conquers all!  I recently tested CalcBuddy, Kreac Calculator and RealCalc.  Kreac Calculator is my favorite because it has the simplest design and I can easily enter exponents.  One less thing to carry around, one less thing to lose and one less thing to buy (again!).

My pedicurist: Sally Hansen




Summer is coming and that means sandals and open toed shoes. That means exposing my wintery-callused feet from all the walking at Cornell. This combination calls for a fresh pedicure. That being said, I could drop $65 plus tip for a pedicure at my salon, or opt for my $2.95 Sally Hansen Insta-Dry salon nail polish. I decided to save my time and money and do it myself. This nail polish is the best I have ever purchased. I went with the Sonic Bloom color, its a pinkish orange. It tries in under a minute, there are tons of fun colors, the brush is flat so it is easier to apply and it goes on with just one or two coats. When I was done, my toes looked pedicured, needless to save I was very satisfied. My mom even asked where I got my pedicure and she liked the color, she was impressed when I said I did them myself. Anyways, save yourself probably around $200 dollars(or more) and get a pedicure right when summer starts, but hold yourself over with a painting at home.
