Get to know me!!

35 Facts About Me!

I've seen this trend going around the blogisphere for that past couple of weeks so I thought I'd jump on the train and give it a go myself. Sorry if this bores you, but I've got a little bit of time to kill before my next class so, here we go!


1) My name is Dannie, I am currently a freshman in college, about 2 hours away from my home town and I'm loving being on my own and having this freedom.



2) I'm a communications major with an emphasis in public relations.

3) My dream job, if blogging doesn't take me places, would be to work for a make up brand as their public relations agent.

4) My favorite drugstore brand has to be Revlon, especially their Colorstay line.

5) My favorite high end brand would be Urban Decay...I got the Naked 2 palette for Christmas and it is TO DIE FOR.

6) My obsession with make up sprung up when I went through a faze of bad acne over the summer. I felt the need to cover it up, and now that it is cleared, my make up obsessiong is still here to stay...just less of it is needed.

7) I really would like to go to cosmetology school but my parents would not approve of it so as of now, that is my back up plan, and for now I'll stick to doing my friends make up for fun...and that's okay because I love doing it!

8) I only have one older sibling, a sister. We are really close but we are polar opposites. She never wears make up, skinny jeans etc. but she really should because she has a body shape similar to Kate Middleton and I'm always trying to get her to try new fashion choices. 

9) Speaking of Kate Middleton, I plan on studying abroad in London within the next couple of years. I absolutely love the British culture and I consider myself an Anglophile!

10) If you see me on the streets or anywhere really, you'd probably see me listening to my iPod. I listen to music anytime I can.

11) My favorite artists are Ed Sheeran, Jessie J, Adele, Lewis Watson (see a British trend here...) and my guilty pleasure is the ever so attractive band, One Direction. They bring out the inner fangirl in me.

12) COFFEE. COFFEE. COFFEE. I loveee coffee. I have some form of it everyday. Iced, latte, mocha...mmmm. I'm in a coffee house drinking a dark chocolate hazelnut mocha as we speak!

13) I get really excited when someone shares the same love of make up as me so when someone brings make up/beauty/fashion up, I like to keep the conversation going as long as possible because not many people I know care that much about it. Although, I'd like to take credit for converting one of my very good friends into the make up world. ;)

14) I wish I could live in a world where it was autumn all year round. I don't like heat, or extreme cold, and spring is just too wet and the weather is too unpredictable. Autumn is just perfect.

15) If i could live in over sized sweaters, scarves, boots, and leggings all the time..I would. I don't like wearing a lack of clothes like you need to in summer, I like to keep covered for the most part. 

16) I went through a faze in high school with changing my hair a lot. Different shades of brown, reds and I even got a perm. Towards the end of last summer, I decided to chop a good 5 inches off of it to try to get it back to its natural state. Even though I do plan on getting another perm this summer after it grows a back a bit more...ahh yes I know its extremely bad for your hair...

17) I'm a social media addict.

18) None of my friends know about this blog besides one. 

19) I love to be social, go to parties and events/etc. but I absolutely need my "me" time. Most of the time, monday nights become my "me" time because my roommate works all night, so I quite look forward to those.

20) I'm very good at reading people, that's a reason I'm studying communications.

21) I'd much rather give a speech than take a written test. I have bad test anxiety.

22) My favorite store to shop at is H&M because I tend to go for the staple pieces like V-necks and sweaters and H&M is a great store for that.

23) I don't tend to wear a lot of colors. I find black/grey to be more flattering. I'll add a pop of color with a scarf of shoes. 

24) One thing I really wish I could do is pull off bright lipstick, but I can't. I don't know why, but I always end up looking like a clown. :(

25) I'm not a big drinker, but I like to have some wine every once in a while. I will never allow myself to get sloppy. I just find it extremely un-classy. 

26) I'm extremely excited to get my own apartment. I can't wait to decorate it and make it my own.

27) My own apartment/house MUST have a fireplace. I love feeling cozy. :)

28) I plan on applying for jobs in Chicago/Minneapolis/London when I get done with school. I'm from a smallish town and I can't stand it.

29) I wish I could sing/dance.

30) I want to eventually settle down and have a family but I want to travel a lot first.

31) I'm almost always cold.

32) The amount of sweatpants I own is kind of unhealthy.

33) My parents act like they are supportive me wanted to move to the UK eventually, but I can never tell if they really are or if I'm going to be able to actually leave them for that long. 

34) I enjoy writing. In the blog/journalism format, not the school essay format.

35) I'm really glad I started this blog and I hope that I eventually get to meet other people who share the same beauty interests as me. :)
