Oh Hey There

Man, has this week been unusually busy, to say the least. Here's a recap of all the shenanigans I've been up to:


-Washed all my whites with a red shirt, so now I have a whole lot of pink tops. Awesome (NOT REALLY).

-Found my favorite of all time board game online, Barbie Queen of the Prom Game 1990s Edition!! It's ridiculous, and I have no idea why I was so obsessed with it. This board game was played probably every waking chance I got when I was a kid. Anyway, you can buy it here if you are super into it as well (then call me so we can play it together). (Dibs on the hot metallic pink car!!! Ooooo sorry not sorry!)

-Got a few more freelancing jobs! EEE!! So pumped! But also, now my schedule is much more crowded, but I'm not complaining. Just currently trying to find a rhythm that works best for me. So that's why it's been a little all quiet on the blogging front for me. But I have a story this week, and I've got some celebrity makeup looks I want to try as well. So, thank you for sticking around, and I'll be back very soon with some cool stuff. In the mean time, I'm going write my face off and take mini breaks to read this amazing blog I stumbled upon: Garance Dore (you will love it too I promise!).


Talk soon!

Writing

So it's official--I've started a book! I've had the idea in my head for a while now, and I just said, today's the day! (I'm only 700 words in, so it's not like it's going fast or anything).

The hardest part about writing for me is the naming. I cannot for the life of me pick character names. I just hate all the ones I choose. I throw in a stand-by name, end up really hating it, then go through a whole story to change it, just to realize that maybe it wasn't that bad of a name after all...you get the picture. So that's been challenging. Otherwise, it's business as usual. My fingers fly around on my keyboard, then I'm two pages deep in a flash. I should of started this a long time ago.

I think what's been inspiring me lately is this blog, Nat the Fat Rat. She's a really good writer, which is hard to come by these days, especially in the blogging world. She writes the perfect amount (in my opinion anyway), and I have yet to see an error. THAT'S HUGE PEOPLE!! Even a misplaced "and", a misused "apart/a part" which I CANNOT stand, nothing!! Plus her kid is adorable, maybe that's where THIS came from...

So I'll keep writing, but for now, here are two more awesome pictures of all my awesome temporary tattoos!! I had wayyyy too much fun last night with them, kind of wish I had more to add to be honest. 

I sent my mom the picture I Instagramed, and her exact words back were: "Thank God they are temporary!", probably due to the fact that I have two real tattoos and counting--sorry mom!
