Monday Q & A #18



Hey Everyone, 

One of my favourite bloggers, Karen of Makeup and Beauty Blog, does a weekly poll on her blog encouraging readers to take part. Every Monday, I will be posting my answers to her questions on my blog, and hope that you will join me by making your own post, or leaving your answers to the following questions in the comment section below.



1) Mood: Stressed. I am in the middle of a really really bad flare up and it's definitely messing with my plans. I was supposed to do another makeup course and photo shoot tonight but had to drop out. I am also supposed to be travelling to Toronto this week, but I'm not sure if that will happen now. 


2) It's Girl Scout Cookie season! Do you have a favourite?: I don't think we get too many different kinds of Girl Scout Cookies in Ontario. I've only ever seen the thin mints and the original vanilla or chocolate ones. Personally, I'm not a big fan of either. 


3) One thing you must absolutely finish today?: There's nothing I need to finish today. I am going to spend the rest of the night in bed. Hoping it will help the pain. 


4) What's one lesson you wished you'd learned earlier in life?: "Don't you worry your pretty little mind, people throw rocks at things that shine".  


5) If you were given the choice to see five years into your future, would you take it?: I think I probably would. I am someone who likes to plan for all eventualities rather than go by the seat of my pants. I'd like to know how my health will be, what I will be doing for work, whether I will still be living at home, etc. 


6) Is there anything you wish you spent less time doing?: I wish I had spent less time worrying about anything and everything. I like to think of every possible bad scenario, which takes a lot of time and energy. 


7) What's one of your makeup mottos?: You can never have too many makeup brushes!


8) List three makeup brushes you couldn't/wouldn't want to live without: 1) MAC 217 Crease Brush (or similar brushes from Sigma and Bdellium) 2) Sigma Sigmax Brushes (any of them work well for applying foundation) 3) Real Techniques Deluxe Crease Brush


9) Someday I am going to...: Be the beauty editor at a large magazine! (well, at least I hope so). 


10) Weekly Goals: I don't really have any specific goals. I have a really busy week ahead, so I'm just hoping to make it through the week without too much pain. 



If you decide to answer the questions, leave your responses or the link to your responses in the comment section below. 

Hope you all have a great week.

  6. I guess I'll answer the questions here...

    I am stressed also, but for a different reason. I've actually finally gotten my acne under control after a year and a half of trying a million things. I'm waiting on my equipment for my spa since we finally have a suite centrally located in Austin to start doing business. Without it we've paid rent/deposit and are sitting on well when will it ship. The rep for the company isn't very forthcoming with information. While we can sell our products and do makeup artistry I need my esthetician bed, sanitizer, and facial machine. RAWR!! ><

    I don't remember the name of the cookie, but I believe it was a sandwich with peanut butter. I'm a peanut butter junkie. Already finished today's projects and about ready to plop into bed again for the night. I hope the dreams are better tonight. I wish i'd learned earlier that I should've pursued a career in skin therapy because in this economy going into it is much more a challenge than if I'd done it younger than my early 30's.

    I don't know if I want to know my future. On one hand if it's positive yes, but if it's negative I just can't say. I mean would I want to know now that I might die tomorrow… Would it change anything by knowing it earlier. LOL

    I don't really use makeup brushes for my face. I'm a hands/fingers user on myself except for my eyes which I use a normal disposable applicator for. Someday I'm going to travel outside of the USA and Canada. Weekly goals: Contact lawyer about incorporating business, if equipment ships get it in our suite, finalize services/pricing for web site, and determine then when our grand opening/ribbon cutting will be with the Chamber of Commerce.
