The Truth of the Butterflies

I recently bought two Morphe eyeshadow palettes, the 35P and the 35W There are 35 shadows in each palette. They are a mix of matte and shimmer.  The 35W has a variety of warm tones:  There are oranges, purples, pinks, browns, beiges.  The palettes are around $20 which is crazy, mostly crazy because the shadows are actually super beautiful! I do need to layer is a little to get more intense colors but other than that they are beautiful. They last all day, and they blend beautifully. I'm a huge fan of the pink in the third column, and the second from the bottom in the first column.  The 35P is just as beautiful, it has a bunch of purply tones:  One of my favorite things about this palette is that it also gives me browns and a few tan/orange colors towards the bottom left. The purples are build-able which is nice because that allows for a nice subtle look, or something more dramatic. This palette seems perfect for the spring time and whenever I want something a little more fun

This is just a post to appreciate myself.  Today, I looked in the mirror and I was happy. In this photo I feel beautiful.  I don't feel fat, I don't feel sad, I don't feel fake.  I just feel like me.  It is March 22, 2016 and I feel good. I'm sure the longer I look at the photo the more I'll hate it,  but right now at 6:05 pm, 5 hours after this was taken, I still like it.  My eyebrows might look a little crazy, but I don't hate my smile, I don't hate my eyes, I don't think my nose is too big for my face. I don't feel like a troll.  Love who you are and what you look like.  It can change your entire mood and how you interact with other people.

Lately, I've realized that I have just been lazy. My family is paying a great deal of money for me to go to school, yet I notice that school is not what I am focused on. I am more focused with my social life and Netflix than I am with school, which is ridiculous. At night time or when I have breaks during the day I should be reviewing and reading for class. I should be doing homework, but instead I end up doing my makeup, watching YouTube videos, or online shopping. This Week: I have a paper, a test, a discussion, a lab, a quiz, and then a test next week. Right now, I am reading for one of the discussions that I have due this week (clearly taking a break currently though) I do think that working four days a week has made it harder to keep up with my work, it makes me think about all the fun things I'm missing in the dorm so when I get back after work all I want is to socialize. I should be focusing on my grades so I can bring up my GPA. I need to make sure that the classe

I did not go anywhere tropical this year, but I'm not that sad about it. Instead I spent a lot of time with my family and friends. My sister picked me up from school Thursday (3/10) and we got dinner at Chili's because all I wanted was a burger and fries. And Amherst doesn't have any normal American food.  Then on Friday, I was the only one home because I don't have Friday classes and went and shopped by myself (which I find very relaxing) and I got myself some new skincare and a new pair of Vans that I have been obsessed with since I got them. Later that night, I went to church and helped prepare the St. Patrick's Day dinner my family was hosting the next day for the community. I got to cook with my dad and it was so much fun, it was nice to spend time with my dad because I always miss him a ton when I'm at school.  Then on Saturday, I remembered that I had a job interview on Monday and I don't own any professional clothing because I am a slacker, ob
