Bimbos unite!

[Sanayhs]

Adina, I can see why you like Blankety. It still has enough colour to not leave me lifeless! Woo. AND OH GOD IMPASSIONED! This is an AMAZING lipstick. It just POPS and brightens my whole face. YOU SHOULD ALL INVESTIGATE IT, YO. Unless you're afraid of bright lips, in which case it will scare the poo out of you.

Base Light paint is surprisingly pretty. Gold pigment is delightful, and I imagine will be really pretty layered over Sharp. Ohhh, Sharp. *snuggles* I am no longer without mineralize blushes! Nuance and Pleasantry both swatch beautifully on me. Still glad I didn't pay retail, though. Next up: Merrily.

Aaaannnddd, now that I have the palettes, I don't have to worry about what to do when I depot a bunch of shadows tonight! Wheeeee!

Hi Bimbos!

I am back from work and very tired. Do you know what I am doing? I am watching QVC.com TV Live online right now

Can't believe I am really doing it. Maybe I love listening to English right now

I am soo excited for CoC!!

The collection will be released here on September 6th...

Well then I guess my detective name would be Lee Taylor

I don't think the s is necessary for the acronym... individually, we each qualify as a bimbo, but when you have more than one bimbo... bimbos! At least, that's what I'm sticking to.

I decided to play with Shadowy Lady first. Smudged Violet across the lid, whatever the palest shade is for highlight and down into inner corner, Deep Truth for outer two thirds of the crease, shadowy lady for outer corner and lining below lower lashes. Smolder on waterline and very thinly as top liner. I put on a combination of pleasantry and nuance and sculpted with emote, and put blankety on my lips. It's a smoky, fun look without being too dark. Blankety turns a soft neutral pink on me, by the way. My body chemistry likes to play with things. Hee.

Of course I like to play with things!

It was kind of fun to watch Blankety turn more and more pink on me.

AUGH.
Got in trouble at work. I have to stay an extra hour today. I'm sad. At work, they like to blame me for everything. I work as a teacher at an academy. When the kids don't do their homework. It's my fault. If the class is too hard. It's my fault.

1. I'm not there to make your kids do their homework. They are YOUR kids for a reason. I can't be at your house. Shoot, when I was a little, my mom would always yell at me to do my hw. Why don't these parents do the same?
2. It's too hard? It's their past teachers' fault. These kids are going into 8th grade not knowing that the area of a rectangle is length times width. WTF? I can't go over grade school work with them if I have to teach a 9 week Algebra I course, I don't have the time, I've been given a strict schedule that is IMPOSSIBLE to follow. And then, those kids have only been given word problems in the past as EXTRA CREDIT. What the hell? The WHOLE SAT is friggin word problems.
3. I have no past experience, they didn't train me. I got shit for letting kids out an hour early. I'm sorry, I didn't know, they didn't tell me this, I have never gone to a tutoring academy before, how am I supposed to know? I'm sorry, I'm just a glorified baby-sitter, you just don't want your kids around. I think that's just the saddest thing. You would think, this is the first thing they would tell me, to not let the kids out early. They tried the.. "We're worried for their safety if you let them leave early." kind of thing. First off, if they worried about this, they should have said something the FIRST DAY I started. But no, I got NO training, so this is my fault for not asking? I wasn't aware this was something I needed to ask about?

So yeah, after today. I'm quitting and not ever looking back. I don't want to work for such an awful place.
Bad parenting. ALL of them.

These kids had the nerve to demand for an A in the class. They said.. "Well, you know our generation is supposed to be worse than your generation, so you can't expect us to be able to do well in the class." SO I SHOULD REWARD THEM FOR IT!?

Yeah. So glad today is my last day.

I don't want a teaching career anymore. I thought it would be rewarding, but this was the most awful experience I have ever had.

 

[darkishstar]

OHHHH Samantha! When I checked out CoC today, I totally thought about you. I kept thinking.. "Oh, she would like this color."

I adore the collection! It's the most beautiful collection ever!
And my list grew.

-Spiced Chocolate Quad
-Tempting Quad
-Cherry Blossom
-Liquor (This is going to be my FAVORITE color, I know it.)
-Cult of Cherry

Not picking up Lightly Ripe though. It's kind of blah to me, to be honest.

Can anyone picture any of those DARK mattenes on me?
I'm wondering if I should give any of them a chance...
I'm still scared of how dark they are!

I left with Viva Glam V l/g and Eden Rocks l/s today.

That's dreadful. I know what you mean about bad parenting, too - I worked at a daycare a few years ago, and that was a truly saddening experience. Amongst my thoughts on having children is included: DON'T HAVE THEM IF YOU DON'T WANT TO SPEND TIME WITH THEM.

The 'generation' stuff is bullshit. You get the A if you do the work. And, if you're just naturally quite bright, the work doesn't take much. I can't imagine sitting back and being ok with not knowing any of the stuff - I taught myself so much shit throughout school, you don't even know.

I'm going to stop before I start into a huge rant on parenting and the huge lack thereof that seems to be common now. I'll just say that I'm grateful that the mommies who are amongst us bimbos are good ones - or else I'd be frowning at yous!

Awwww, thanks so much! I've infected many people with thoughts of me when it comes to this collection, I'd say. *giggle*

I'd say you should give Bing or Kirsch a chance as a light stain. You know it's totally worth trying while it's at the stores/counters now instead of continuing to wonder and kicking yourself later.

I've heard a number of people who are terrified of dark lip colours comment on how gorgeous Bing is. Just sayin'.

The quads are beautiful, with one exceptional colour each: Smudged Violet, Sharp and Brash. Holy crap, gorgeous. It's true that Sharp isn't terribly unique, but I adore it anyway.

I still don't know what all I'll end up with tomorrow, but I've got enough for at least 11 B2M (one empty shy of 12...

), so I think I'll be covered.

I'm so glad that you understand my situation at work.

Okay! I will definitely give them a shot at least. The worst I could do is just wipe them off and be on my way out of the store with my goodies.

I'll try Bing at least.

These quads are definitely the ones we were lacking this year! I didn't think I would want Tempting.. but the quad.. SHARP stole my heart. And the browns.. I could always use more, I don't have any of the colors, so it's okay.

I have one B2M to cover me for one of the lippies.

So I'll definitely be picking up 2 quads. and a few lippies. I'm going to better compare Sugar Trance and Cherry Blossom when I go tomorrow. I'm going to swatch them right next to each other. I really don't think I should pick up Cherry Blossom.. but it's SO beautiful! But yeah.. I should stick to the more unique colors.

Like Liquor!!!!!! AHHHH, I can't stand it, I love that color.

It's what testers are THERE FOR!

The purchase of these quads doubled the number of brown eyeshadows I own. Ha. I'm cool like that! I plan to wear the tempting quad tomorrow, in a look similar to my recent tea party concoction. I'm going to have SUCH a good time playing with all the lippies. I'm really debating over Cherry Blossom since I own Sugar Trance, too. Plus, I tend to prefer glosses with a bit more actual colour to them, you know?

Tell me more about Liquer, please! That's one I've been on the fence about, whereas I'm damn certain about most sight unseen. Come now, enable the girl lusting after the entire collection!

Ok, how the heck did I miss this! I even posted & didn't see it. Bad, bad, bad mommy...child neglect I say

Then I got all distracted playing with some of my Cult of Cherry stuff

...I'll have to think on this. I so love the title how it is...but I'm sure we'll be creative.

When I was in school, I did my homework before anything else, and I earned extra money by babysitting. Ugh...like Samantha said, don't have kids if you don't have time for them.

 

[TamEva Le Fay]

Oh my...I wish a little moss grew on this thread once in a while...but it just doesn't!

Hope all is well - Welcome Back UK Nora! We missed you Girl! Hope you were able to pickup a fabulous pair of platform heels in Spain...nobody makes 'em better, but maybe the Brazillians.

Samantha...Nice haulin'! What, exactly, do you guys do with your depotted shadows before they're able to find homes in a palette?

Congratulations Samantha! You've created a monster with this thread, and now...the Monster needs a disguise for the masses!

Don't know how I feel 'bout that! Are you selling out and going Corporate? Hmmmm...(?)

Sorry I've been layin' low having a nervous breakdown over my iPod/iTunes issues. Since my old computer died I wasn't able to deauthorize my iTunes Library and I've been trying to load my new library with my iPod - we're talking 4,800 songs.

Of course, Apple doesn't want you to be able to do this...soooooo bring on the ass pain!

My biggest concern is all of Stevie Nicks

bootlegs/Demos/out takes/Live Concerts, unreleased songs, etc., etc.
Yes...I'm a major Chiffon Head!

Next to makeup...Stevie is my greatest LOVE!

I will, literally, whither and die - if I lose all those!

Of course, I never backed any of it to disc!

Such a loser!

Anywhoooo...I spent the better part of an evening/early morning trying to figure things out, and by golly I think I've got it! Now all I have to do is delete 4800 songs, since I double downloaded without knowing.

Moral of this story...Kids please, please, please back-up your SHIT on your computers!!! I don't care how you do it - just DO IT!
Not tomorrow, not next Tuesday, TODAY!

If any of you have iPod/iTunes issues let me know I may be able to help if this ever happens to you. GOD forbid!

Oh BTW if any of you would like any of my music - Stevie or otherwise let me know I'd love to share!
