Monday Questionnaire: Happy Halloween!

1.) Mood:
Exhausted! Worked till 6...store was crazy busy!! Have you ever tried to put away over 200 shopping carts?

Ignore my crazy hair :p

3.) What is your favorite Halloween candy?
Reese's Peanut Butter Cups!
4.) What is your favorite Halloween memory?
I remember I had a really bad cold last year (oddly enough I'm getting one now, as well) but I had so much candy & couldn't taste any of it! I was rubbing Vicks Vapor Rub all over my upper lip & by the end of the night, that's all I could taste! Not sure why I find that so entertaining... but I don't have a whole bunch of Halloween memories to begin with. This year was way fun though. (:
5.) Do you believe in ghosts/spirits?

I did a few times, but was never super big on it. I stopped around age 15.

I really cannot get enough of Disney's "Halloweentown" movies! I watch them every year!
9.) Did you dress up for Halloween this year? If so, as what?
I work at a grocery store... I pasted different cereal logos all over all black clothes, added fake blood & was a "cereal killer!"

Song Of The Week!

This past week I went and saw "Footloose" with my mama. It was SOOOO good! :p There's one song in particular, from the soundtrack, that I just cannot get enough of - " Ella Mae Bowen: "Holdin' Out For A Hero" Her voice is way unique. Vintage sounding? Maybe that just sounds like I'm saying she's old... Anywhoo, enjoy!

Monday Questionnaire: 10.24.2011

One of my favorite "beauty bloggers" Amarixe has been keeping up with a Monday Questionnaire. I've been having fun reading through what she has to say, as well as the comments from others, so I figured I'd give it a try as well. Hit or miss?


1.) Mood:
Tired. I feel like I've been doing psychology homework all day.
2.) When making a sandwich, do you care if one of the bread slices is the end of the loaf?
Yes! Who wants a crusty sandwhich?!
3.) What is the weather like today?
Cloudy. Cold front comin' in. I'm lookin' forward to some appropriate, spooky Halloween weather!
4.) Current nail polish:
Nails Inc. London Special Effects in Clapham over basic white polish from the dollar store. I am really liking the brighter look! ( NOTD Blog: http://rosiegirlbeauty.blogspo... )
5.) What ring setting do you keep your cell phone on at night: loud or silent? (Or the phone completely off?)
Loud! I've always been a tad paranoid about someone needing me during an emergency in the middle of the night, so I gotta be prepared. I've never gotten one of those calls however...
6.) Current outfit:
Purple camo pajama bottoms with a super soft grey sweatshirt from Aerie.
7.) What is your favorite Disney movie?
If we're sticking with the classics, my favorite Disney princess is Ariel! I have this thing about water... I have an addiction to Monsters Inc. though. BOO!
8.) Can you whistle using your fingers?
No siree.
9.) When doing laundry, do you separate loads (lights/darks, delicates, etc.) or throw everything together?
I only seperate my lights/whites from my darks. I'm not too picky, mostly because I just want to get it done. I don't have expensive designer clothes anyway.
10.) Weekly goals:
Keep up with school work, study for my drivers test (I'm wayyy behind.) and prepare for Halloween!

Nail Of The Day - Crackle Polish

I just finished painting my nails! Though this may not be the traditional "fall look/color" I have to say I'm really liking it! :p This is the Nails Inc. London Special Effect nail polish in Clapham, from Sephora (&9.80+tax) over a basic white I actually found from the dollar store. (3 coats) In case your new to crackle, I do have to say it can be kinda tricky. A lot of girls will attempt to cover the entire nail, over the base coat, but for some reason too much polish will stop the shatter effect. It dosen't matter whether or not the entire nail is covered anyway, considering you can already see the base coat color through the top coat. For slimmer lines, apply a very thin layer. For a chunky look, apply a medium coat, but do not apply the crackle polish twice to the same spot! Understandable? Hope so. XO
