This is a picture I took with my new Sony a5100. I'm absolutely loving the flip screen and how light the camera is!

In other news, I finally revamped my YouTube to match my name here: The Other Chic
I will be posting every Friday with Face Painting and once a week with beauty/fashion related product reviews, hauls, etc.

BIRTHDAY PRESENT: Sony Alpha a5100

Hello everyone!

I know it's been two months since I last updated, but I've been busy and also my boyfriend has been busy so he can't take pictures of my outfits for me. 

Just some updates: 

1. This Sunday will be my 25th birthday, and my boyfriend bought me the Sony alpha a5100 in White with a kit lens for my birthday! I don't have a picture of it yet since it's still in shipping but I will get it this Thursday June 18, 2015. I'm very VERY excited. Why? Because this only weighs like 1/2 a pound despite it being a mirrorless DSLR and the screen flips 45 degrees, 90 degrees, or 180 degrees, making it convenient to take selfies for myself or for my boyfriend to angle the screen easily so he doesn't have to bend around in awkward angles to look through the viewfinder. This also means high quality YouTube videos for my channel now! Whoo!

2. I've been hitting the gym 4-6 times a week now and I'm getting stronger! It helps that I go with my boyfriend and his friend who really motivate you to go to the gym and go hard. Plus having to pay for the gym motivates you to go too so that you don't waste your precious money haha.

3. I've been searching for new work for a little while now since my current position isn't paying me the promised amount and they decided to blame me for clocking in wrong. They're only giving me up to 15 hours a week which isn't enough. Luckily my face painting job is holding me up financially. 


Life has been rough but still good lately. Mainly rough in the sense of my job but other than that things are great. I hope I will become more financially stable soon.

I decided to dress myself up this morning to put myself in a good mood and here's two selfies of what I look like for today before I go into work:

I hope to be posting more in the coming months after I get my camera. It's just there's hardly any good places to take pictures. I will have to improvise I suppose.

Anyway, thank you for stopping by! I will see you soon.
