Random Blogpost: My Pet Peeves

My Pet Peeves

Oh my gosh! Words can not explain the happiness I feel in my heart! <3 I am so thankful to God because he always helps me so much. Gee I just want to celebrate.

So what is a pet peeve? A pet peeve is defined as: "... a minor annoyance that an individual identifies as particularly annoying to them, to a greater degree than others may find it."

I wanted to blog about my biggest pet peeves. I feel like I have a couple that seriously just really get to me and upset me so much! I also believe that I embody some peoples biggest pet peeves myself because of the way I am. So I will begin.

Chewing with your mouth open: Why? Why do people do this?! I don't understand! It just annoys me so freaken much, it's disgusting and despicable I believe. I have seriously gotten to the point where I will be sitting there eating and someone starts to do that.. and I want to cry or yell at them because it upsets me so much. I get so angry because it's so annoying! I usually don't want to say anything because its someone I know or care for or I'm close to, so it makes it awkward for me to be like, "Hey, shut your freaken mouth! It's gross and annoying to hear you chew your food, nevertheless be able to see you do it." You know? I just have gotten to points where I have to get up and leave because it angers me so much that I want to cry =/ ugh. Needed to get that off my chest.

Sipping or sucking on food: WHAT THE HECK?! I don't wanna hear you such on your meals, like sure a sip of coffee or tea here and there not all the time and super obvious and CONSTANT! Stop.. why must you continue to do this?! Didn't your parents teach you table manners?! Ahhh.. I gotta not talk about this anymore.

Things I do that might bother people: I know some peoples pet peeves are things such as people who never reply to text messages or who reply with one word texts. DING DING DING DING DING! I'm that person! I don't know why.. before when I was in High School.. which is not even long ago.. I would text 24/7. Like seriously, my mommy had to get me an unlimited everything plan because she couldn't keep up with my brilliant texting skills. Soooooo......... I would send up to 5,000 text messages in a month.. to me that's excessive. I look at it now and I hardly text and last time I checked I had sent around 1,500 text messages. I'm the person who will text you because I haven't heard form you in a while and then I will stop texting back. I will forget and reply two or three days later and that's if you're lucky! I understand this really bothers some people. To top it off, I don't stop there.. If I indeed reply to you I will reply with one word text messages. Have I really annoyed the hell out of you now? Yeah, I will be like "Yes. No. Okay. Me too. Maybe. Idk. Bye. Night, Morning. Yeah. Mm. Cool. Nice. Cute. Same. Omg. Lol." Now I have really pissed off quite a few friends by being like this, but my question to you is.. would you rather I change? Would you rather I send you a super long text message and not mean what I say. Would you rather I incorporate bullshit words into my text messages just to enrich the content of it, and try and fool you by allowing you to believe I spent a long time texting back. Like I just did? My point is.. why do you get so upset? If I'm replying I obviously care about you to an extent.. right? Calm down. Sometimes I get busy, but I think about you and then I text you and reply.. then I get busy again and I repeat it. Basically although the way I text might bother why do you flip out so much? It's not like I want you to send me 10 page text messages either, I don't demand that of you.. you shouldn't either relax.

Tarte's LipSurgence Lip Tint In Joy Review

I want to do a review on something I recently fell in LOVE with!

Tarte's LipSurgence Lip Tint in Joy:

Mine is in the color Joy and it was $24.00 plus tax at Sephora. You can also buy them at Tartecosmetics.com or other places like Ulta and so on. It has a "screw" like thing at the bottom, I can't think of the name right now. You twist it and you know it comes up.. like chapsticks! I love the packaging it has little glittery shiny specks around the tube.

Oh my gosh! Anyway, I bought the product last summer simply because I love lip stains. I find that they are the most.. what's the word.. practical and easy to carry and apply and simply work with. Since Life gets so busy and overwhelmed, personally I start off the semester by applying makeup, doing my hair, and coordinating my outfits. As the semester kicks off and I have my first round of exams you best believe the whole "beauty" aspect has been definitely thrown out the window. Seriously? I would much rather sleep and extra 45 minutes than get up and rush putting something together to look "nice" at freaken 7:45 in the morning. Whoever does this, kudos because it's difficult! Anyway, I'd rather sleep, I mean I try and look at least half decent in the mornings but I'm not gonna "doll" myself up to walk into a Bio lab and you know work with bacteria or do a dissection. No sir, I want to really dig into my lab and not care about my lipstick or mascara and sure as hell not my outfits. Therefore, before I start school I invest time, effort, and of course money, into finding long lasting makeup products. One of them being Tarte's LipSurgence Lip Tints. Okay, so I'm REALLY into coral and orangey colors. i think they work best with my skin for spring and summer, when fall and winter kicks in I am all about the dark plums, berries, and reds.. but that's another story.

REVIEW:

       When I first got the lip tint, I liked it. Tarte claims that it's a hybrid between a stain, a balm, and a gloss. They also say that it's nondrying, so it moisturizes your lips and keeps them hydrated as well as providing a sheer color but also staining. Magnificent! I have tried several other lip stains and HATED them because they left my lips so dry.. and yes I understand a lip stain will do this but there is a limit.This lip stain is pretty moisturizing to an extent and I don't think it's sticky or tacky at all. It will be if you apply loads but it's not bad at all. I bought my Lip stain in the color Joy, the packaging on mine was ORANGE and I thought to myself.. Okay I want a coral not a bright orange that's too bold for me. But I still took it home and tried it out, and okay I liked it, it was alright it was sheer, smelled nice, and stained my lips a bit, and most of all didn't dry them out too much. Later because it didn't stain much I started to not love it so much. Recently I rediscovered it in my makeup collection and I honestly discovered what love for it in. I was wearing a red/pink shirt so I decided to throw on that lip stain and I applied.. A LOT. To truly get that orange/coral color. So my surprise when it wore off I had the freaken PRETTIEST stain on my lips EVER! It was a cross between some orangey, corally, hot pinky color. I Loved it! I apply it at 8 AM in the morning, a thick layer of it by the time I'm out the door to do my daily activities most of it has been absorbed by my lips and by 3 PM, so 7 hours later, I still have some of that beautiful pinky, red, orangey color. I'm excited you best believe this will be my go to color from now on. I just love that I can throw on some concealer and this lip stain and be what I like to call "decent."I will DEFINITELY be purchasing different colors! Anyway, I'll post some pictures down below. I know I write a lot feel free to skip ahead.. and of course just to clear things up I truly and honestly love this product. If I hated it I would also say it. There is nothing I hate about the product except maybe that it breaks off easily.

My lip color: ( I put this because a lot of the time I feel sometimes this changes how lip colors look on people according to their lip color. Is it just me?) Anyway here are the I suppose swatches on my lips.

And So It Begins...

My Beginning

Oh yay! This will be fun, I don't really know how blogging works. I don't really care much though. I feel like so many people want to create blogs or make videos to benefit from them. While I also believe that's okay for some people to do it when it's for the correct reasons, I also believe it's silly just to do it for popularity and money. Okay, I am going to express my feelings now, brace yourselves. Well.. that is if someone is reading this. Last summer I decided that I was going to start making Youtube videos because I was subscribed to several "Beauty Gurus" on Youtube and I figured why not give it a try? I kept up with it for a couple of weeks and then I decided to "retire." What I noticed though is that people are tired of seeing new beauty gurus. To be honest I hate that term so from now on I will no longer say it, or at least try. So anyway, I noticed it was annoying to see so many people trying so hard and just following a trend. Pretty much uploading what they thought would get the most views or the post comments, likes, etc. When The Hunger Games premiered you best believe Youtube was FLOODED with "Katniss side braids." Now that was awkward because for the thousands of us more lazy girls that did our hair like that daily to save time, etc. it now seemed like we wanted to "bandwagon" the trend. Damn it! The fact that so many people were creating those videos, in my opinion, weren't really doing it because they loved the book or the hairstyle but simply to get views and ratings. I thought that was unjust and not fair to the viewers or readers. These trends and hypes made my decision to not make a single video more much easier. I did however make one review. A review on the camera I had so proudly bought to make good quality videos in the first place. I was so excited with the camera at the moment that I just wanted to share my love for it with the world or anyone that wanted to know about it. I also noticed that while I was researching about it only there weren't that many good reviews about it, or that I didn't like the reviews at all because they were missing something I really wanted to know about the camera. I figured if I was the viewer I would like to see this this this and this and to be told about the battery life, the picture and video quality, to show me a picture and a video clip, the sound and so on. These were so many things people didn't speak about. So, I decided to review the camera and speak about every single thing I wanted to hear about or be aware about before buying the camera. I did just that, and it turns out that video has more comments, views, likes, and messages than any of my other ones. At that moment I realized that was because I was genuine in that video. I really was sharing my thoughts on something I loved, not just uploading something because I thought people would like to see it. So today I decided to start blogging. I'm not doing this for millions to read my blogs or watch any videos I post. I am doing this for me, to liberate any thoughts, concerns, happiness, and things that go on in my life. It will be like a diary, well an open diary to share with others. I will post and make videos about what I want, what I love, and what I feel like posting because I enjoy it. I will not do anything because another Youtuber or blogger has millions of views and comments. I will do what I please because I want to do it. I am my own person and I don't ever want to be one of the bunch of people who are all the same. I am a unique individual like each and everyone one of us is. So if anyone out in this huge internet world is reading my blogpost you can count on my sincerity and complete honesty, rants, and much more to come.. but all of that will be ME. Not anyone else, not a combination, not double, and sure as hell not a wannabe. I'm going now, I have nothing else to share except how to keep the colors on your clothes for longer so when you wash them they don't loose their color and how to remove blood stains and other stains from clothes. The things my Biology professor teaches me amaze me.. oh science I love you.-Jocie <3
