insane psycho freak

i've been copying my mom. 

in this case, wearing the same rose fragrance as her 

since last summer i think...

it's called

GUEN Beauty Fresh Rose Shower Cologne

and all of the important writing on the packaging is in korean

so i can't read it.

hannah bought it for her for her birthday last year

so i would sneak into her bathroom to "get something" or "weigh myself"

and spritz it on every morning.

finally i went down to the beauty supply to buy my own and

lo and behold, they don't have it anymore, they just have the sample.

so i made it a point to go in there once a week

and bug them to see if they had gotten it in.

no. no, we haven't. no, come back next week.

can i have the sellers contact info please? 

no.

and then one day:

"here just take the sample, you insane psycho freak"

! YES !

however, samples do not last forever.

so i started stalking google. 

literally could not get any search results on it

until this past weekend, when a store in san gabriel

known as "NAIL SUPPLY HOUSE" had it on their website.

went in there today and bought em out.

i gave it such a raving verbal review,

the lady asked me to spray some of my sample on her;

i happily obliged.

sidenote about NAIL SUPPLY HOUSE:

we're talking OPI nail polishes, regularly $8.50, for $5.50

we're talking essie, usually $7.50, for $4.75

we're talking floor-to-ceiling nail polish and nail polish smell - 

at one point i had the feeling i was going to faint 

and thought about stepping outside for a breath of fresh air

 but told myself to keep it together.

great place, might be my first yelp! experience, might not.
