Short & Sweet: Monday

I really love when people do summaries of their days, and so I'm jumping on the bandwagon and starting those type of posts up!
I'll probably do it once a week or so & will include pictures but not this one because I'm in total bum mode today.
Today has been such a lazy day but I feel like everyone is entitled to one of those days every week or so. I woke up around noon (oh yes) and literally watched a bunch of television and filled out my financial aid papers for school. Then around 3 my neighbor came over and I helped her pick out a song for her talent show auditions next week. We decided on 'Jar of Hearts' by Christina Perri - such a great song. That's really been it thus far. I plan on eating dinner, hitting up the gym around 7, going to Walgreens to pick up the Queen Helene Mint Julep Mask (I've heard great things about this so I want to try it out and it's really cheap so why not!?), and then going to sleep over my boyfriend's house. Mondays are generally boring for me but I like it that way.
This week itself is going to be nutso. I'm working tomorrow my normal 3-6 pm and then Wednesday starts my 5 day sleepover with the kids I nanny for. Both parents are going out of town for business so they asked me to stay over, and for the money they're offering I can't refuse. I do get my days from about 8 am until 3 pm free which will be nice but I'll for sure miss my family and my boyfriend (although I plan on running over there to snuggle after they leave on the bus). Then on Sunday I have to go into my theatre job and help run the open house which is actually quite fun but all the prepping is a pain. I still need to make flyers, get to know your instructor sheets, and sign-up sheets. It doesn't sound like a lot but it's a pain and I'm very obsessive with trying to sound professional so I go into OCD mode with making everything. Speaking of theatre, this past weekend my boyfriend's production of Sweeney Todd opened and he was AMAZING! I went twice because I can't go next weekend :( but it was great both times. He's such a talented guy ♥.
Hmm, past that I've been obsessed with Wordswithfriends! If you play, find me: curiositykilledthecait
And that's that!

EOTD - 2/7/11

Just an EOTD from the other day. I went bowling on Monday with my sisters and cousin for a school event and I wanted to wear make-up but not go over the top so I whipped out my Wet-n-Wild eyeshadow trio in Silent Treatment. I'll be doing a seperate post about the two trios I own by W-n-W but to sum it up, I'm in love with them. These shadows are SO pigmented and so cheap. I've grabbed all of my Wet-n-Wild eyeshadows from Rite Aid but I'm pretty sure you can get them at any drugstore and Harmon beauty stores as well. I used the lid color and crease color from the trio and wore L'OREAL VOLUMINOUS MILLION LASH mascara which is another drugstore gem. I sometimes find it hard to show you all my eye make-up because my crease is so defined/my brow area is so "heavy" and you lose a lot of it unless I make silly faces (hence the cropped photos, haha). I will say the crease color is crazy dark & pigmented so just beware of that when you use this, a little goes along way for sure.
