Ten on Tuesday hosted by Chelsea from Roots and Rings; Today’s Questions Provided by Molly at Considering the Campbells.

1. How many blogs do you read every day and what are they? (I’m talking the ones you NEVER miss)
   Pretty Little Reckless, Jenni (when she blogs), Mandy, Sarah, Lauryn, Mae, Supergirl, life is bananas, Healthy Obsession of a Girlie Tomboy and probably a lot more because my reader has a ton of blogs in it.
2. How many “best friends” do you have? Do you have different “besties” for different areas of your life?
   I’d say I have about 5 best friends who I’m not afraid to be completely myself around.  I have other friends that I may go to depending on what I need.  For example, if I need the harsh truth, LP is my answer,  If I need someone to be sensitive and just listen I’ll call up Shell.  That’s not to say that that’s the only thing they offer.  I guess it just depends on the situation, each friend brings something unique to my life.
3. What’s your daily make up routine?
   Winter: Eyeliner/mascara possibly eyeshadow
   Summer: mascara
4. What is your ideal girl’s night?
   Maybe out for dinner and drinks or making dinner at the house, watching movies and gossiping with wine or other delicious drinks.
5. Do you keep up with your nails/toenails or are they au natural?
   my toes are usually painted, my finger nails I go in spurts
6. What’s your best roommate story (assuming you had a roommate at some point in your life)?
   Beside C, I’ve never had a roommate.
7. What’s your “go to” outfit that you wear more than anything else?
   bootleg jeans, t-shirt, hoodie and my converse
8. Do you have a beauty secret?
   Vaseline on my lips leaves them super soft and if you have a cracked lip from the cold it works wonders
9. Did you read Seventeen magazine growing up?
   I did and YM, remember that one?
10. How did you learn to put on makeup?
    By watching others. My mom only wore eye makeup, which is probably why that’s all I wear too. I just never knew what to do with all the other stuff and I could never find the right shade when I tried.
