[mspixieears]

My name is Gemma, online I prefer Gem only because it's easier to type and it doesn't appear on predictive text when sending text messages on mobile phones.

My bio is somewhere in the 'meet the mods' thread...sorry I'm going to be lazy too. But if it's any consolation, there's buttloads of crap on me, and more so on my blog (if you click on the page 'bio' on the right column/sidebar).

Hey Lara, if you read this, I love your avatar!

Location: Sydney, Australia

Profession: I am a student studying Psychology

Ethnicity: I was born in Australia but my ethinicity is Chilean.

A little more about me...
I work at a shoe store part time, I have been going out with my boyfriend for 4 years. I am a student and will finish my degree in June.

Favorite Vacation Area: It would have to be Chile. I would love to go there again and also travel around South America and maybe some countries in Central America.

How did you get into MAC:
I was pursuaded to go to the counter from so much talk about Mac on the Vogue forums. Back in around November last year they opened up a counter near were I live and decided to go. Once I stepped in to the shop I was addicted. Especially with the Makeup artists they are so nice. Thats my story and I will never look back....

Future Plans:
My future plans are to get a full time job after I finish University. Not sure if I want to go back for my fourth year in Honours or postgraduate (which I need to work as a psychologist). I will probably see how I go but I am so over studying at the moment. I may even want a whole career change. I am very unsure. Other future plans are to move in with my Boyfriend.

 

[kaliraksha]

Name: Erica

Age: 21 yrs old

Location: Austin, TX

Profession: I am a student studying Psychology (yay copy and paste from above post worked for me)

Ethnicity: part Mexican... part Spanish (a little French thrown in there somewhere)

A little more about me...
I work for Internet Technical support... it's a drag ... I've seriously had people ask me how to get to *my* computer whenever I ask them to click on "my computer".

Favorite Vacation Area: Right now it's Puerto Vallarta or Scotland (of places I've been)... I imagine when I go to Greece... everything will change.

How did you get into MAC: Actually slowly... my friend was very knowledgeable about their line in high school... and all I use to wear was purple eyeshadow... it was my baby. I had not found a department store line that carried so many different eyeshadow colors... slowly from there whenever I was looking for something a little different I ended up at the MAC counter... and now it's the other way around... it's all MAC and I occassionaly stray to another line like Lancome or Guerlain. My first product was Trax.

Future Plans:
My biggest plan soon is switching schools to Southwestern University, because they have a better rated liberal arts degree program. I recently moved in with my boyfriend of 4 years... we just recently started talking about marriage seriously... we use to joke all the time with good intentions... but now we're making plans in the next 1-2 yrs after we graduate. I intend to get any job that will take me with a degree... eventually get certificates in Psych and practice for a bit to make enough money to start my own restaurant. Make babies (<2), travel, decorate, buy lots of clothes, shoes, jewelry and makeup....dare I say,live happily ever after?

Favorite Vacation Area: I'd like to go back to Las Vegas now that I am over 21!
How did you get into MAC: A good while back my bf agreed to pay for some foundation for me (I was a broke ass student back in those days) and I really like it but I was poor so I never got anymore...Plus I've always been intimidated by MAC ma's for some reason so I never once again got the guts to approach them.
Just recently when I was out of a job and had nothing to do at home, my dear friend Serenaxoxo introduces me to pigments through the macsaleswap forum on LJ. And I read the forum and became obsessed at collecting MSF's too...I still haven't gotten my makeup done by a MAC ma, but if I have time tomorrow I wanna go do it--I want to get colormatched for the Studio Fluid Fix and get the 190 brush too...

Future Plans: I'm planning my wedding right now--hopefully this one won't be cancelled because of another hurricana'...after that I want a house and a new car...preferably a pretty lil Lexus...my poor Suzie the Silver Bullet got flooded (1997 Honda Civic)
