#16: A Photo of Me and My Family

I love this pic, my mom and my 2 siblings Alex and Sam. 

Extended family on my mom's side. This was my grandparents 50th Wedding anniversary a few years ago. 

#15: Something I Never Leave My House Without

This one is easy....MY SMART PHONE! 

I swear, sometimes I feel like it's an attached limb. The few times I have left without it, I have literally turned around and gone back home to get it. I feel totally lost without it. It's like my connection to the outside world LOL. It's so pathetic, I hate that I'm so attached to it and have a mini panic attack when I don't know where it's at exactly.

I have an "outdated" phone by today's standards LOL! I have a Droid, HTC Incredible with a pink gel hard case on it. 

#14: A TV Show I'm Currently Addicted To

I would say I'm totally addicted to Tosh.0. It's a ridiculous show, but dammit it's so funny, I just can't help it.

#13: My Favorite Musician and Why

I love a lot of musicians, so it's difficult for me to just pin point one as a "favorite". It's also a challenge because I like so many different music genres, usually to have a favorite you also have to have a favorite genre of music. In any case, I'll just do a quick pick out of the hat and go with one of the musicians that I like the most. 

Mary J. Blige

She's an R&B singer and I feel a very inspirational woman. It has been said of Mary that her "music has been the voice of inspiration to women worldwide in both struggle and triumph" and I whole heartedly agree. She has shown that although she has experienced success in her musical career, she is still a woman who experiences all the same highs and lows of life that we all do.  What is to be admired about her I believe is not only her strength to triumph, but her ability to remain a classy woman through it all and always exude a strong sense of self and confidence in the beautiful person she is inside and out. She was also blessed with a beautiful voice that allows her to share her life experiences with all of us through her music. 

 

#12: A Photograph of the Town I Live In

NATIONAL CITY, CA - This place is much better than people give it credit. It's not the hood, I like living here.

Known well for its Mile of Cars Way

#11: What's in My Makeup Bag

Well, I should start by saying I don't have a makeup "bag". I have a makeup toolkit more like it LOL. It's a large pink metallic box that literally opens up like a tool box and I carry that thing everywhere I can. When I travel for short work trips I might just take the essentials in a small makeup bag, but if I can I take my box. I don't know that I can actually put everything I have in there, there's lots LOL, but here's an idea: 

This is a good representation of the eye shadows I have. I love Bare Escentuals eye shadows, I have probably about 10 of them or so.

I also swear by Bare Escentuals makeup. I've used it for years and I'll never use anything else. 

One product that is fantastic and I recommend to all is Urban Decay Eye Primer Potion

I just bought this not too long ago and so far I totally love it, it gives just the right amount of color and shimmer

I am totally addicted to MAC Plushglass. I have several colors and I go through them often. At $15 a pop I should probably try to find an alternative, but I've tried many lipglosses and none are like MAC!

I have several different types of brushes, but some of my favorites include ecoTools, they are great! And no animal hair :)

Mascara I do play a lot with, I try all different types, but so far of the ones I've tried these are my all time favorites!

This Clinique mascara is totally cool, the brush is very comb like and it gets every single lash and makes them super long. 

This one by Lancome is UBER cool, it has a vibrating brush! So it does the job of separating very well 

I have a lot more makeup in my toolbox, so these are just some of my favorites.

#10: A Photo of My Favorite Place to Eat

This one is totally easy....SIPZ! This place is an awesome vegetarian fusion cafe. It was first introduced to me by my brother Alex. He told me one time about this place that he ate orange chicken with his friend, but it wasn't really chicken. After that I decided to check it out and I was hooked. The place is in Clairemont Mesa and I would drive as far as I needed to in order to go eat there, but thankfully they finally opened another restaurant in North Park! I could seriously eat at this place every day, if I didn't have to worry about a budget LOL

Some of my favorite dishes:
