September 2nd - Orientation

I was so nervous about orientation I forgot that everyone else is just as nervous (okay, well probably not AS nervous as I can be a *bit* of an overthinker). The day went fine, though, the tour groups could have been better planned and I didn’t really meet anyone in my group that I connected with. I hope that I meet a friendly person in one or two of the classes (all of them would be brilliant but I won’t hold my breathe).

If you didn’t notice by that first paragraph, I’m shy. Seriously, social anxiety welcomes me with open arms. But, I’m trying to change that and be more out going and friendly and speak first (HARD!).

First day of real class is tomorrow, I’ll let you know how it goes.

Excuses, Excuses.

What can I say, All I have are excuses to the reason why I haven’t posted since the twenty second. I was sick, and then I got better, got sick again. Had to do certain things before school started…and the cycle goes on.

I  watched both Prom Night (Which completely rocked) and That movie that has something to do with Mrs Pettigrew (Which completely failed). What Happens In Las Vegas was also an amazing moving, so funny. I definately recommend watching both WHILV and Prom Night.

I got my Everyday Minerals order (finally? It took 10 days, So I guess that is about the norm, but I figured closer to the border would mean it would get here faster), I got the Mini set (four foundations, two colors and two of each finish in those two colors. Along with two start to finish powders), the sample set (three foundations, one blush, one concealer) and the flat top brush.

I’ve used their foundations for over a year now and honestly they really have helped my skin clear up and stop breaking out so bad (I still break out, but not nearly as bad). The flat top brush is amazing, I haven’t tested it out on my face, but it is amazing when you “inspect it” for softness and density. Can’t wait to use it tomorrow.

Information about my orientation to follow in a seperate post so this one doesn’t get too long.

Getting there…slowly.

What ever happened to that girl, she was somewhat of a regular blogger and then poof? Oh yah, the moving boxes ate her, they never found her body.

In all seriousness, I have been very busy unpacking boxes, picking stuff up, and getting everything put away. It is such a long not very fun chore after the initial fun passes of buying all the new stuff. I went grocery shopping yesterday and its so odd just buying for one person instead of four + 1/2 (dog). But, I’m getting into the swing of things and soon I’ll be back and you won’t be able to get rid of me!

I rented two movies (my reward for tomorrow for finishing unpacking and cleaning the place!), which are Prom Night (I love Brittany Snow!) and Mrs Pettigrew Lives for a Day (Amy Adams is just a doll!). So, I’ll update with a review hopefully tomorrow night!
