Congrats!!!!
1. Where are you from? Alloway, NJ
2. Where is that exactly? Southwestern portion of the state. Very close to DE, in fact I go to DE at least once a month.
3. Tell us about that state/area! Time to brag! Really????
This is NJ. Not much to brag about
4. What decade were you born? 1980's
5. Tell us about a (perhaps completely useless) MAD skill you have! This probably isn't a skill, but I am an absolutely AWESOME bargain shopper! It's unreal how much money I save, especially when saving online, by taking an additional couple of minutes to search for coupon codes, which is something that a lot of people don't think to do. For example, when ordering Christmas presents tonight, I was able to save $10.00, get free shipping, and get an additional $25 off an item by digging around for coupon codes. I ended up saving $35.00! Then when ordering something from the same site for my dad and my boyfriend, I was able to save $10.00, plus get free shipping, which was $12.99. I actually saved $85.00 off of a VS order once this way. I'm proud of my shopping skills!
6. How many languages do you speak? What are they? 1, English.
7. Do you like to travel? Where have you been? Not really. I'm more of a homebody. I've been to FL and every state in between, and Maine and DE.
8. Do you eat breakfast? What do you usually have? Sort of. When i get to work I eat oatmeal or a cereal bar or something along those lines. Occassionally I'll have a bagel breakfast sandwich when my manager goes to the bagel shop for coffee.
9. What are your pet peeves? ooh boy do we really want to go there? Ok, when people use am/pm incorrectly, or add an "s" to the of things, such as saying "Wal-marts" or "Checkings account," people who stand way too close when talking to you (Seinfeld anyone?), when I'm at work people who rapid-fire shoot off questions and don't give me a chance time before they expect answers or who ask for something over the phone and I'm pulling the info up they say "hello?" or "Are you looking at it?" (as if I'd be sitting there twiddling my thumbs!) just because people can't stand a moment of silence, when people lick their fingers before counting money or sorting papers or whatever, people who talk on cell phones in public while doing a transaction or ordering food (I'm a jerk, I always went out of my way to talk to these people as much as possible and with as many words as possible, no matter how unneccasary, to try to out-rude them!), and cole slaw (just the site of it makes me nauseous!), just to name a few. There are many many more though, trust me
10. What are your hobbies? Reading, crossword puzzles, crocheting, and chain maille.
11. What got you into mineral makeup in the first place? I have very acne-prone skin, and felt the need to always cover it up with make-up but realized I was only hurting my skin by doing so, so I learned the MMU was a healthier alternative. Plus, in my opinion, it's a lot more affordable.
12. What do you do for a living? I'm an MSR (member service rep) at a credit union
13. How do you personally apply mineral foundation? dry, tap out the minerals in the lid, swirl my brush in, and sweep on, no buffing. May go back to spritzing my brush based on the consistency of SN when I finally receive it.
14. What are your favourite eye shadow colors? I don't have any from here yet except Cyprus Sand which I haven't used, but from EDM it would be Gingerbread Man, 3rd Place, Lucky Penny, and Peach Tree.
15. What are your favourite lip colors? Again I don't have any from here, but from EDM it's Golden Strawberry and Honey Mirage)
16. Are you bad at anything (you can totally say no....everyone knows most SN girls are perfect in every way)? Haha plenty of things.
17. Are you married? What's your favorite thing about your spouse? Not married but might as well be. He's always there for me, and makes me feel beautiful and cherished in every way. I'm lucky.
18. Do you have any kids/pets? No kids, and I don't ever want any, but I have a wonderful fat spoiled rotten cat and three sneaky evil ferrets that I love to death.
19. How many makeup brushes are you using personally? Well, normally just a Fiber Optic brush for primer/finishing powder and a Kabuki for foundation application, but occasionally a blush brush and some eye brushes.
20. What's the strangest job you ever had? I'm going to say the one whole day I worked at Head Start. It's completely weird to me that I received no training, didn't kow how to handle it when the kids were misbehaving which was constantly, still don't understand why the kids weren't disciplined or the parents notified when they HIT TEACHERS AND ASSISANTS (yes, I was hit by one of them!) or kicked and bit each other (sadly yes they did a lot of that, I don't recall that happening when I was their age!) and worst of all at the end of the day, I still only knew a few children by name, I didn't know who did or didn't get on a bus or which one and yet had to take them to their buses, AND was left ALONE with the children who got picked up WITHOUT A LIST OF NAMES OR A SIGNOUT SHEET to make sure they went with the right adult. Is it me or is that a recipe for disaster? Anyone could have walked out with any random children, an estranged parents could have abducted their child... I would have had no way of knowing or preventing it, and yet I would have felt 100% responsible if something bad did happen. It was all so upsetting to me that I called and resigned the very next morning. Good thing I hadn't quite my previous job.
Nah, it's not so bad.
Favorite thing - I can 100% be myself around him. He makes me feel like the best possible version of myself.
IN FL I am near Tampa, about 20 miles west of it.
