BirchBox Brag!!

I love getting my Birchbox and seeing what everyone else got in the boxes they got!!

So This is what I got for the month of November!

Honestly there were a lot of repeats in this box;

All images taken from Birchbox’s website because I am still unpacking and can’t find my camera cord!

The Mary Lou Manizer from The Balm cosmetics, it came in an adorable little case and was about the size of an eye shadow, the only bad thing is I got this last month too.

Full Sized Eyko eyeliner in Navy, really pretty liquid liner, I like this brand because I’ve gotten them before.

Full-sized lip butter from MOX this one wasn’t a repeat product and wasn’t bad at all.

Got this perfume sample before, and didn’t like it then or now. I saw some people got Flirt and I wish I had, even though I’ve gotten it before I really like that perfume.

So I am pretty sure that these are supposed to be done in a Vlog form but because of the move I don’t have a spot where I can vlog yet, I am going to just type these out! I would LOVE to see what everyone else answers!

THE QUESTIONS!
1. Do you start your Christmas shopping on Black Friday or wait until the last minute?
I am a last minute shopper, I am honestly the type of person who will be at the store on Christmas eve at 11 pm looking for things to buy!!

2. If you could be in any Christmas movie what would it be?

Oh gosh this is WAY hard!! I think I would love to be in a movie like How The Grinch Stole Christmas, or Miracle on 34th Street or Home Alone (1, 2 or 3 but NOT 4) or for a newer movie Unaccompanied Minors!

 

3. Which do you like better: Christmas Eve or Christmas Day?

Christmas Day!!

4. When does your family put up your Christmas tree and who decorates it?

This is going be hard for me, My family usually puts up the tree the weekend after Thanksgiving and Usually myself and Jujube decorate it. But this year because I’ve just moved to live with Kensei I don’t know how or when we will set it up.

 
5. White lights or colored lights?
White on the tree, colored everywhere else!

6. Are you guilty of peeking at your presents or do you like the surprise?
I was a peeker growing up, I haven’t done it in a while though, I mastered the art of sneaking throughout the house, locating all the presents and peeling back the wrapping paper so that I could peek!

7. Would you rather live in a gingerbread house or in Santa's Workshop?
Santa’s Workshop, while I Would LOVE to live in a house made of gingerbread and candy I would literally eat my way out of house and home!

8. Tell us your Christmas Eve traditions!
Usually last min shopping, watching a Christmas movie, probably Once or Twice upon a Christmas with Kathy Ireland, looking at the Christmas lights and making cookies for Santa! Not sure what I’ll be doing this year though!

9. If you could be under the mistletoe with anyone who would it be?
Kensei!!

10. What tops your tree?
At home we alternated an angel and a blinking star, Kensei and I have to pick out our own tree topper this year.

11. Can you name the 12 days of Christmas?
Yes, yes I can, 12 drummers drumming, 11 pipers piping, 10 lords a leaping, 9 ladies dancing, 8 maids a milking, 7 swans a swimming, 6 geese a laying, 5 goooold rings, 4 calling birds, 3 French hens, 2 turtle doves and a partridge and a pear tree!

12. Have you ever gone Christmas caroling?
Nope, but I’ve always wanted too!

13. Do you countdown to Christmas? If so, how many days are left?
I do! 30 Days!!

14. What are some foods and treats you can count on having every holiday season?
Apple pies, eggnog, hot coco, and Christmas sugar cookies!!

15. How has Christmas kept its magic for you as you've grown older?

I honestly don’t know, it never lost the magic, I just love love love the season, the lights, the fact that people seem nicer around the holidays, its my most favorite time of the year!!

I would LOVE to see everyone else’s answers! Either leave your answers in the comments or link your post if you do this tag!!

New Home, New Job, New School New Life!!

Everything is new to me now!! I just completed my move to Memphis TN and got my official letter to the University of Memphis, AND got a job within one week of looking!! It’s a part time hotel job for 3 months and then a raise and move to fulltime! I just need to figure out a way to get everything unpacked and my classes set!

I missed you all, so I should be updating much more often now!

The Big Day!

Well this is going to be quick, I have got to finish packing TONIGHT I load up tomorrow and move to Memphis on Friday!! AHHH So much to pack and so little time!!! If only I was moving in the Tardis… I could use the bigger on the inside feature!

Please Vote!

I just wanted to remind everyone in the US to please take the time to vote tomorrow,

I don’t usually talk about politics on this blog, and regardless of the party you like, if you “want change” or “want the same” I think that every American over the age of 18 should vote.

“But my vote really doesn’t matter” is a cop-out people have died so that you would have the freedom to vote, do it! The people who fought for us to be able to vote obviously felt that it was worth dying for, worth fighting for, they left us a voice, and what good is a voice if you stay silent?

Please Vote.

and on a lighter but similar note:

What is currently on your wish list?

Honestly? I wish I had people to come help me pack! But for a more materialistic wish I want to get the Sephora Cinderella set.

Share a new iPhone, droid, ipad app you have recently discovered that we all need:

I’ve been addicted to two games lately Happy Street – which is basically a farmvilleish game but super cute and Plague Inc., which is a game I didn’t think I’d like you create an illness and infect the world with it, I got it for Halloween and its quite addicting.  If anyone has or gets Happy Street add me as a friend!

What is a new Fall TV show you have added to your DVR?

I am about a season behind on the TV shows, I have a strange obsession with watching every show in order so if I miss an episode I won’t watch any more until I can catch up. Currently watching Once Upon A Time, Raising Hope, Psych, Burn Notice, NCIS and Warehouse 13
