Here are 7 things about me:




(Photo credit goes to : http://dianekress.wordpress.com/2011/10/18/pcostreatment/)


1.) I have PCOS. Its a nifty way of saying my hormones do what they want. I think this is worth bringing up because your hormones really do affect how cosmetics and polish act on me. I also think that more women should talk about this.


2.) In high-school I never wore makeup. I had good skin and didn't really get into all the glitz and glam. Right after High School I got my degree in Early Ed and taught preschool for 10 years. I learned a lot.


3.) Im one credit shy of getting my AA. After that Im taking a Bachelors in Computer Science Engineering. I'm horrible because I can't decide what I want to do. I like web design, Im having a ton of fun learning C++. I think I want to eventually make Apple Apps.


4.) In case you skipped that last point.... I'm a nerd! lol Seriously I love Sci fi, and fantasy. I read actual books in addition to text books. People tell me Im smart, but I know enough to know that Im not smart, just eager to learn.



(I don't know who made this original photo but If you do let me know so i can credit!)


5.) I have a polish addiction. Compared to others, my collection is small. I don't know the exact number but i have about 120 cataloged on Pinterest and about 50 that i haven't put in my inventory yet. Julep started my polish addiction. Before them I had about 6 bottles of it? I joined a group on FB called Julep swap, and that let to Indie polish which leads me to:


6.) I am a big supporter of anything indie. Books, Polish, Jewelry, art, clothing, and so forth and so on. Etsy gets me every time!


7.) I'm an avid supported of human rights. Boy, Girl, black, yellow, green, gay , straight, bi, whatever, I am for your rights. You can find out more about the Human Rights Campaign here :D

  1. Thanks so much for the nomination, you are too sweet! :D I've already done a similar award with facts about myself so I won't do this on my blog (too hard to come up with more facts...or I'm lazy :p) but thank you so much! It was fun reading yours. <3

  3. Kristy, you are too sweet! Thank you for your kind words regarding my writing style and Instagram photos; you totally made my day. I too only recently got into makeup and really never wore it before because I was blessed with good skin and long lashes; that and I was just too lazy before and didn't care lol. Congrats on being so close to achieving your AA degree; make sure you keep going to finish it up, girly! YOU CAN DO IT!!! :) I also think you're amazing for striving to move forward with a bachelors degree. I just finished my bachelors degree in business administration in December and although I definitely want to go onto my Masters, I have NO IDEA what I want to do it in... my mind is saying business (that's where the money / logic is) but my heart is saying ... find your passion! And blogging has really opened my eyes up to my other desires in life. Maybe we can find that balance and figure things out together! :) I'm so glad that you followed through with this award and I hope you know that you truly deserve it! <3
