Update

So as I mentioned in my last post, I’ve had a lot going on lately.

I officially began working my first full-time job.  I am working at a small market research firm that specializes in higher ed publishing.  The company I work at is also a consulting firm that does project management and hires freelancers to work on various projects for major publishing companies.  I have been working there since mid-April and I feel like I am now getting a good feel for the kinds of projects that the company takes on, the clients they work with, the project management process, etc.  I work with both the project side and the marketing side.  I am also working as “command central” of the office an serving as the main point of contact for freelancers and clients alike.  I am also responsible for developing contracts and completing various tasks, including troubleshooting technology problems that may arise.

Work is good, although I’m finding that I am having some trouble concentrating lately.  It must be because I am getting excited for my vacation next week!!

My boyfriend and I are going on a 4 day Western Caribbean cruise next weekend with a bunch of our friends.  We leave Thursday from Tampa.  I’m so excited!  Vacay starts Wednesday night after work, hopefully with Vampires Suck!

So I guess I should start thinking about packing!  I think I am all up to date on clothes…I got new dresses for dinner, new shorts, croc flops etc.  Which brings me to my next update…

Makeup!!  So quick back story to explain how I got into makeup.  I was actually did a google/YouTube search for DevaCurl reviews back when I first started using their products and came across this review from Michele1218 on YouTube.  From there I checked out her YouTube channel and discovered that there is this whole world of makeup and makeup gurus on YouTube.

The last couple years have been pretty rough for me and I found that getting into makeup and researching products and watching tutorials was not only a welcome distraction and newfound hobby, but it has also been a lot of fun to try out new looks and look my best, which has in turn, boosted my confidence.  I have been adding to my makeup collection lately, and I will include info about my recent additions in a seperate post.
