Does it feel like your life is a Storm ready to sweep you away?







most of us have felt it...you just don't want to go on anymore, you don't want to wake up in the morning.  The feelings you feel when you're awake feel like to much, the pain that you feel is too painful. Maybe you've been hurting so much, you feel numb now. Maybe you do things to hurt yourself more than the pain you are already feeling, like cutting yourself, or injuring yourself. Maybe you are even thinking of ending your life, with suicide, or maybe you've felt like it in the past.
I have felt overwhelmed in my life.
I have been heartbroken beyond belief, and sometimes it didn't even involve someone that hurt me - it was my own life that was breaking my heart. It was my choices in life that were breaking my heart. I felt like I even broke God's heart, for the creation he made with love, that wasn't making the best choices for herself, me!
My heart has felt a sea of sadness. It's hard for me to talk to people about my feelings sometimes, And this week was tough, I was dealing with so many things, very stressful things, from money things to heart things, to life things...to so many things!
I want you to know, if you feel like giving up...DON'T - that sad time will pass. You WILL feel happy again. Everyone I know has gone through a sad time, that they felt that the pain was too much, and they didn't want to live. I have friends who I've talked out of suicide, and I have friends that didn't talk to anyone, and they took their life. To know that if they just talked to someone, whatever problem they had, was NOT TOO BIG, nothing is too big! And you will get through it, I promise!
Sometimes people only pray to God when they think they're gonna die ~ and if that's the way you have to do it..that's fine, nothing is too small or too big to pray about. but one quote has always stuck to me "Is prayer your steering wheel or your spare tire?"
God isn't waiting to judge people...he's waiting to love you, like a dad with his arms open to hold you and tell you everything is ok. Now THIS IS NOT TO GET ALL RELIGIOUS on you
This is the only thing that pulled me out of this...my mom talked to me, and reminded me how nothing I've done is too awful, God gives you a fresh day with no guilt, no shame, he just wants to love you and for you to love him in return.
All the hurt we've had in life, will be swapped out for happiness.
I am happy today....despite all my trials and hardships, i am happy because i have my three little princesses to keep me smiling =)

If no one else it telling you it's okay...I am!
It's okay, whatever your heart hurts about...it's okay. Nothing is TOO big for God to handle.
If you feel like it's too much, like you can't go on...don't go on it alone. If no one is there, sometimes God removes everyone there could be to talk to, so the only one left (the most important one) is him.
You will be happy again. You will feel like going on, I promise!
I love you!
You're precious!
And if no one else has told you how amazing you are...I did!
You're amazing, loved, and amazing things to do in this world!
huge love and even bigger hugs (through the computer), your friend Sierra

When life gets too hard to stand...kneel


I have gone through many moments in my life where i have just fallen to my kneels from lack of strength to stand. Many of us can relate to having a perfectly good day and one moment in that day can sweep through and ruin it. i've found that i dont HAVE to dwell on what hurts or is bothering me, yes it's hard not to but just think about it, is worrying, stressing, crying, getting angry, ect.. are any of those things gonna change the situation? most of the time, no. and the moments we spend doing all of that, are moment wasted that could have been full of smiles and happiness.

I have recently hit a lot of bumps in the road, some bumps feel more like mountains, and yes i will cry, but there is never a time where i dont think of my heavenly father, and how he is always there to pick me up if i so much as call his name with a humble heart and pure intent. i have always been one that "appears strong" but inside it's like a battle field and storm of emotions.


I look at my children everyday and want the best for them, i want them to grow up happy and FEEL loved by their mother and father, i want to help them achieve all their wildest dreams and be like their best friend. it's amazing to me how when i feel so brutally torn, emotionally, my little two year old comes up to me out of the blue and just gives me a hug and kisses me and says "i love you mamma", to me it's not only love from my daughter but like divine intervention from god, letting me know things are gonna be ok and sending love to me so i can keep on putting my shoulder to the wheel and move along. my daughter would never SEE when i am troubled because i never let my children see that. but even just seeing their smiles brings warmth to my heart. :)

to all of you who may be hurting today or just having a downer day, remember that you ARE loved, and  there is someone out there ready to show that love for you, you are capable of more than you know, dont let these small (yet seem so big right now) moments get you down, notice all the blessings in your life, the sun that shines every day, the air you have to breathe, your friends and family, your freedom!, ect.. we have so much to be greatful for, so i urge you to take the time in the moments when life seems to hard to stand, to count all your blessings and you will feel a little better.
Keep putting your shoulder to the wheel and push along. we will be rewarded for all our hard efforts, you are worth more than you give yourself credit for, and never stop spreading the love and happiness of life. :)

Lots of love and encouragement, if i could i would be your crutch :)

I'd rather have Smile lines, than Worry warts!





I love this...
F...false
E....evidence
A...appearing
R.....real

Fear has at some time in our lives, stopped us from doing something....
when you're little, maybe a dog barked real loud or tried to bite you....you are now scared of dogs
maybe your heart got broken...now you're scared to fall in love
maybe one of your parents abused you...you're scared to trust, love, or scared to feel happiness
you tried to speak your mind once, and it didn't go well, now your afraid to tell people what you think
you tried to talk about your dreams, or pursue them and things didn't go well right away, now you're scared to try, or scared to fail
whatever your FEAR is....go through it, do it anyway!!!

If you are scared to love, scared to go after your dreams, scared you'll fail at something....scared of being hurt.....stop living in the worries....
good quote my friend gave me: "I'd rather have smile lines, than worry warts!"
even if you are scared...go forward...do it....
the fear won't go away....but the dreams, the love of your life, the happiness...will...if you let the fear stop you!

So I say...DO IT, DO IT AFRAID, if you have to...but DO NOT let the FEAR stop you!

If you're in a relationship with someone and you feel like you're afraid they will leave you, abandon you, cheat on you, hurt you.......and you feel it's stopping you from being happy! STOP....stop thinking about what you are afraid of....and love them with your whole heart! (ofcourse, unless they have cheated on you...ha ha ha...) Let WISDOM guide your heart, not your FEAR!

If you are afraid of going after your dreams....go after your dreams, shaking in your boots if you have to, but at least you'll be shaking in your boots going after your dreams!

If you are afraid of rejection....start getting rejected!!! ha ha ha...if I had a dollar for everytime I was told no, or someone didn't like what I was wearing, or didn't like the sound of my voice, or that they thought my dreams were dumb and I'd never achieve any of them....MAN!!! I'd be one rich lady!!!! ha ha ha
The sooner you learn that rejection is nothing more than one, silly person's opinion, and your opinion is the one that should matter the most, the better your life will be!

When I was young, if a boyfriend said he didn't like my shoes or shirt, I'd never wear it again! Now, I'd be like, "well it's a good thing you don't have to wear em! I like my boots!" ha ha ha ha....and you know what, even if they don't like em', they respect you for your confidence and your staying true to yourself!

BE SCARED, BE AFRAID....but don't let it stop you!
I got on a roller coaster, SCARED...heart racing, contemplating yelling at the lady, to let me off, but I rode it anyway, and ended up having fun!

I've put outfits on, where I thought, "what if someone makes fun of me!?!", and then I walked out the door saying, "I like it! And if I wear it confidently, no one will bother me! And I got dressed for me, not for them anyway!".....

DO IT SCARED! DO IT AFRAID! JUST DO IT!!!!!

huge love and confidence, Sierra <3

Is It Worth It?



I have always been the type of person where movies, quotes, songs, things people say, ect.. have an impact on me, some more than others, weather it be good or bad, positive or negative... i take things to heart.

I just finished watching the movie 2012 and it had an impact on me... as you know my husband is away right now in iraq, it has been nothing short of difficult.. difficult being and understatement.. i have stayed up countless nights crying myself to sleep by the sadness of him being gone, waking up thinking i could look over and see him, cry tears when the phone rings and my daughter runs to the phone and says "hello daddy?!" and knowing he isn't there like she wants him to be. 

Watching that movie brought out the fact that we take our lives for granted, we worry so much about ourselves, our money, our struggles, our hate, our dislikes ect... We should be spending time with our daughters, sons, husbands wives, parents, ect... we should be enjoying the outdoors, making the best out of what we have because quite frankly we have it good, and i feel happy and content with all that i have, i dont need to be a millionaire or a celebrity in hollywood, i dont need a fancy car or diamond earrings. All I NEED is my family.
I realized all the bad habits i have that i dont want my children seeing and doing themselves, i want to be an example to them... THE BEST EXAMPLE! 
I know i'm not perfect and probably never will be... but that wont stop me from always trying to be!
People look at the things i wear, the things i do or the way i live and say "she's not trying, she doesnt really want to do good..." but i am, i do... and I WILL
I understand i need to change some things in my life and i am making the baby steps to do so, things dont happen suddenly but my word means NOTHING unless i am showing the effort and know in my heart i am truly trying. 
ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS!  for instance you could be a smoker and say "yes i will quit smoking" but have you tried? have you sought help when you realized you couldnt do it alone? have you done all you can to follow through with your word?...... or are you just lying..

I know every one of us wants to be better, but were stuck. so i urge you to find something you know you want to change and take those steps you need to accomplish your goal. after all, it is a new year and you only live once... dont waste it on what the world tells you is important, listen to your heart. We are all in this together, and TOGETHER we can make a difference.. one small step at a time :)

"cause when push comes to shove, you taste what your made of. you might bend till you break, cause it's all you can take. on your knee's you look up and say you've had enough, you get mad you get strong, wipe your hands shake it off, then you STAND"

I love you giovanni, we can't wait for you to come home!

Typed with much love and cheering you on to becoming the best version of yourself, remember that everyday the sun rises... making it possible for us to live another day lets not waste it,  Sierra

When life is exploding!

I read something this morning....
sometimes the most beautiful, peaceful moments....are ones that are found in the middle of "life's explosions"....
It really isn't a sign of peace, when everything is always perfect and calm....
I think real peace, is when our emotions do feel like little bombs are going off, our happiness is exploding right before our eyes, by circumstances...but while everything feels like chaos and craziness.....we are the bright beautiful, glowing light of peace, while all the "dishes" are blasting apart around us.
I have been in some "dish breaking" moments in my life..but the most amazing times, were when I felt peace in my heart, even when it didn't seem like I should....

If it feels like your world is falling apart, that "dishes" and/or emotions are exploding all around you...
this is the time, when a storm of troubles may be "hurricaning" around you, but you can be safely covered in a big umbrella of safety and peace...the big arms of God can come down and wrap you and your heart up, in a safe place for your mind and heart to rest.

Our lives will never be free from every trouble or pain...after all, this isn't called heaven...ha ha ha
But we can rest in the fact that
I've been in some situations where I should have been incredibly upset, crying, very un-peaceful, but in the middle of it, I wasn't....I had peace in my heart, a peace that doesn't make sense to people....sometimes it helps if we stop thinking about how hard our situation is....and focus in the peace that we can have...our hope of getting out of the "trouble-time"....and not worrying one bit about what's going on. There isn't one situation..where freaking out or worrying about something is going to help!



I hope that whatever you are going through...no that each one of us is dealing with "broken dishes" right now..and if not right now, we probably just got through a "dish exploding experience"...we are all in this together! We can all band together and with our encouraging and loving words!


huge love.....typed with love and peace for your day...Sierra

So Much Love To Give...





I love loving people...I love giving gifts to people...and I love celebrating...ANYTHING! So every holiday I love to decorate and buy or make things to make people feel special!

I know Valentine's day can feel, not-fun...when you don't feel like you have someone to share all those lovey dovey cards with....but if you don't, just pour that love out on the ones you love...your mom or dad, your kids, or family..a gramma!

Everyone loves or needs to be told that they are loved....
and I remember having some not-so-fun Valentine's day...once being sick, once being lonely and sad that I didn't have anyone to give me any valentine's love...once being on a weird date at gross restaurant...
And the one thing I can tell you is....if you're not having a "splendid" valentine's..know that you will...you will be adored and cherished...you will feel loved.

Until then...if you that marvelous person hasn't been introduced to your life....have a Valentine's Day to celebrate you!
Things to do to make YOUR Valentine's day special:
Buy yourself some chocolate
Treat yourself to something fun and indulgent...a yummy dinner with friends, a new cd of your favorite songs, some scented body lotion, a new lipgloss...
Take yourself to do something fun, go window shopping, go to a museum, rent a movie...some of my lovey favs include

Love is wonderful....spread some love today....smile more and tell the special people in your life how much you love them....

Lots of Love, Sierra

I'm Falling!!!




Each thing in your life that feels discouraging, each person that has broken your spirit, each moment when you've felt more alone than you think you can stand....KNOW that in all those moments...when you stood through them....you grew stronger!

Think of each difficult situation... like doing one more rep of a workout...that you know hurts, but you know when you are done...you are going to have the most chiseled muscle in the world.....
not just sculpted legs..or chiseled arms....but the most important muscle of them all....your constantly beating heart!

In the bible it says, "Guard your heart, for it is the well-spring of life"....and that is so true....
If we strengthen our hearts...no one or nothing can take us down....

We are all "get-back-uppers"....none of this "we're getting knocked down"....no way......if we do fall......we're not focusing on the falling...we're focusing on the "get-back-upping"! Because it's not the falling we call failure, it's the STAYING DOWN!

And the best part is...when you have someone that helps pull you up...and that's what i have found many do for me....I love you all so much...and I cherish all your precious words and have stored them in my heart!
huge love, Sierra

Oh no, BACKWARDS!!!!








sometimes, we have to go backwards in life...and it may seem like, "oh no! now I'm really never going to get where I want to be!"....
but it's like a catapult.....you need to pull the catapult backwards...so it has the power to launch it's object farther ahead!

I know this feeling, I felt like all my dreams were never going to happen. I was going way, way, way, into the WRONG DIRECTION!!! And then I had more of my babies...and thought: "I just really screwed up my life!"......but God knew the whole time, what he was doing... Those babies have actually made me grow better as a person and stronger as a loving wife and mother. My whole inner being just changed, all for the better :)


If you feel like you are going backwards.....in your life, relationship, career, dreams, school...anything....just get ready, because, your probably about to be launched farther into your future...think CATAPULT!!!!

you gotta go backwards...before you catapult into your future!!!!
huge love and catapulting, Sierra

this is how life is sometimes

I love you like a fat kid loves cake!






FRIENDS, Pals & Acquaintances
I have a lot of "people I know", but true friends that love you for you, that celebrate who you are, that don't want to change you, that love you no matter what....
those are rare and so special!

You want to surround yourself with people that are right for you! That don't want to change you, or make you into something you're not....they just want to love, support you, be there for you...and just love who you are!
Same thing goes for a "special someone" in your life...you want the right one. That makes you the best you...that makes you feel wonderful and adored. That celebrates you...and helps cheer you on to be the best you, you can be!
Sometimes we work hard to be friends with people who aren't right for us. People who don't have good intentions for us, or aren't people that will be right for us. God knows what we need in our life, and sometimes he will bring in the most amazing people to love you the right way!
If you don't have someone like that in your life right now, know that I believe in you, and I would celebrate all the wonderous things that make you who you are!
And you can always say a little prayer for God to guide a precious friend into your life!
huge love....from your friend that wouldn't change a thing about you! ~
Sierra

A B C.. it's easy as..1 2 3






I read something great about keeping our words....
have you ever had a party, and like 13 people said they'd come and then 6 show up? I have, and I wished that if people said they would do something, they would....or at least tell the person as soon as you know that you can't!
I know there have been things in my life that I said I'd do, then when it came down to it, I didn't want to, or it wasn't "convenient" (i had something better to do), but I did what I said I would do anyway. We want to be people of our words...if you say it, mean it. Let your yes, be yes, and your no be no.
I need to tell myself this all the time, I am a people pleaser, and it makes it hard for me to say no to people, but I am working on, only say yes to what I know I will be able to do!

It's as easy as that, 1 2 3! ha ha
happy Sunday before Christmas...I'm off to do some last minute present shopping...I still need to get my little angels something for their stockings! enjoy the hot chocolate and christmas music, Sierra

Remember, God Knows All...







God knows all our problems, and why he allowed them in our life....to help us grow!
So no matter, what someone you love has done, what choices you've made that feel bad, what a boyfriend or girlfriend has done to you, how you've been hurt, how your family has treated you...

God knew it would happen, and he knew that in those hard times...is when you'd really grow and learn the things you need to be amazing in life!

Never give up....you can never justify giving up!
And you can't always listen to what people tell you, a friend, co-worker, parent, they base their advice on personal experiences and emotions instead of God's truth and his grace. Third, you and I are tempted to give up when we focus more on our loss and the negatives than on the hope we have that God has put inside out hearts. And that's when when we end up feeling hopeless and discouraged.
But remember that whatever, we allow to take over our thoughts...especially if it's negative will rule our life! So please, get rid of all sad and discouraging thoughts - whatever they are...right now, and cling on to whatever good thoughts you have...make good thoughts!

And know that God, knows the outcome..what will happen, he knows what's right around in your future! So if you are worried about a relationship, your career, your life.....God knows what is ahead, and what might be better than what you are so worried about!

My heart has been troubled all day, but these words have comforted my heart and if you are hurting today, I hope that these will help you today...
huge, huge love, Sierra

there is light in the darkest hour...






every single one of us has been depressed, sad, hurt, hopeless...
whether you are sad over a relationship, the lack of a relationship, no job, not the job you want, no money, huge bills, you're frustrated with your life, your family...

You should not be happy!

This probably sounds weird coming from me...who seems eternally happy...so happy, that some people have accused me of being fake! They couldn't figure out how someone could be happy all the time!
And the truth is, I'm not happy all the time. Happiness is based on some thing or event, that MAKES you FEEL happy. (It makes me happy when someone hugs me or says something nice to me....those are my personal examples....)...but JOY is really what I have. Joy is what's in your heart no matter what is going on around you...
I have been through some less than wonderful things in my life, but I have been joyful during these...I've been able to smile, laugh, and be joyfully "happy" during these times...

Not a lot of people have joy in their hearts...and happiness is too wishy-washy to depend on...
If someone doesn't make us happy, we're sad, if nothing exciting or hopeful happens, we're sad...if someone hurts our feelings, we're sad...but JOY is something that we experience in our hearts...that isn't dependent on outside circumstances...

God has put joy in my heart...and I have to remember to ask him for more joy sometimes. People ask me, "how are you so happy?"....And I am not the type to blast people with "religious talk", but I do consider myself to have a relationship with God, and to be a follower of Jesus. If you don't agree with me, that's totally fine....if you do, that's awesome...I just wanted the share the reason that I have joy in my life.


Here's one thing that I heard yesterday, that was so great to let sink into my heart.
Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you 

have the most joyfully day!!! huge love from my heart to yours,Sierra <3

Have I done any good in the world today?, have i helped anyone in need?..







People will forget what you said, forget what you did.... but they will always remember, how you made them FEEL!

Today, and everyday..try to make someonefeel special, loved, beautiful, or even amazing. Each day is too precious to let it slip by just living in our own selfish little world.

More people should smile, hold doors open for people, say thank you and please...and tell people to have a "great day!"...

Everyone could use a hug, a pat on the back, a better handshake...even a wave hello!

Let's be on a mission to make people"feel" better, by just a few, free things we can take the time to do today!

To all the GUYS!






NOTE: if you are a guy, and happen to be reading this...please, make a point to tell that special girl in your life, everyday, that she is the most beautiful girl in the world! Every woman was designed to feel beautiful...soft hair, delicate hands, gentle features...and eyes that show you they love you...you'll never know the gift you give their heart by telling them they are beautiful...it's like setting a caged butterfly free...to soar and fly and it makes their heart feel huge!!!

Leave it to God...






I've had something happen that made me so upset, I was crying, I felt like throwing up....I could've either thought about the "bad" stuff all day and let it rule and run my day...right into the ground. But instead I thought, "God knows the outcome....I am going to trust in Him, and hand all my worried over to Him", "my problems are going to be there, weather I think about them or not...so I might as well enjoy each little moment...and cast all my cares on God...that's what he's there for....

And when you do this, your heart will be free to enjoy simple pleasures in life...like moonrises and sunsets...seeing a balloon flying through air...smelling beautiful flowers...the list goes on..and on....
today i will look for beauty!!!

let's go be beauty hunters....and trouble-forgetters...and in the process, you just might discover the solution to your problem....

Stop Worrying!!!


All, the face in this picture tells me, is: "i don't know about this!?!"....
If I could tell you all the times in my life when I have thought that..."oh no! I don't know about this!?!"...
Like waves crashing on the beach....these kinds of thoughts have crashed into my mind...
how's this going to work?
how am I going to have money for this?
how will this ever work out?
and on and on....

The beauty is...if it were up to me....not a whole lot would happen...if I look at my past...I would be quick to know that....I can't rely on just me...whenever I have taken my eyes off of myself...
and looked to God for my help and guidance...man, doors open up and things take place that I never even imagined!

Sometimes worry...is the worst thing you can do...but you can surrender your cares on someone that cares for you more than you'll ever know!

Remember...
you are more talented than you think, more beautiful than you know, and more loved than you can imagine....Sierra



QUOTE OF THE DAY: Happiness cannot be travelled to, owned, earned, worn or consumed. Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace and gratitude.

Positive Thinking..


As I drove I was thinking about something that I read this morning....
People don't really pay attention to what they think about...
Anyone can just let the random thoughts come into their mind...and dwell on them...but it takes real care and work to think on things that will actually help and benefit you...
You have to work hard to think the right things...positivity and good thoughts are harder to think than the random negative, depressing thoughts...those can pour in by the thousands.
But I promise that if you work hard to think the right things...to only allow the beautiful "flower" thoughts into the garden of your mind...and you take care to not let those "negative weed-like" thoughts come in a choke out the beautiful flower thoughts...

May you think on things that are good and wonderful and uplifting...and anything else that comes into your mind....well, it's gonna have to get the boot!!!



Quote of the day: So celebrate what you've accomplished, but raise the bar a little higher each time you succeed.

FEAR...




Fear and being afraid are a huge part of Halloween...and a lot of people live with fear in their lives everyday...
afraid of being alone
of confronting people
afraid of going after your dreams
of being who you really are
standing up for what you believe
of going after things in your life
telling people how you feel
...so many other things...

fear is what makes you want to run away...
but we should..."do it afraid"...
if you're knees are shaking...plams are sweating....stomach feels all shakey...
do it with all those things....
I heard once, fear is F-false E-evidence A-appearing R-real....
don't let fear steal your confidence away...
be bold, be strong, be brave....and you will be so proud and amazed at yourself for standing up to your fear....
everytime I have I have been amazed at myself....
 it just takes you taking hold of your thoughts and saying....no, I can do this...don't let the "feeling" of fear stop you, and don't let fear steal away the victory in your life...
be bold, brave...and find out the wonders of your bold confidence...
David defeated Goliath...because he had faith...and belief...not fear!

Sending you brave thoughts and lots of love....Sierra <3



QUOTE OF THE DAY:  "If you have made mistakes, there is always another chance for you. You may have a fresh start any moment you choose, for this thing we call 'failure' is not the falling down, but the staying down. "

As i Sit and Ponder...








I once went through something i thought was "the end of the world", something i always rememebered in the back of my mind, always drug out into disagreements and held onto so i'd never forget my self worth.


...don't keep dragging your past into your future...
past failures
past heartbreaks
past dissappointments...
your future is too bright to be darkened with the shadows of the past.

I love this.."strain towards what is ahead, forgetting the past"...

too many people drag this big pile of past hurts, past failures, past bad-thinking...and it never lets the beauty of newness and hope really take flight!
Who cares if you've failed at something 200 times...don't tell yourself you're a failure....you're just getting one step closer...

I've made a lot of failed attempts at things...careers, relationships, and so on...
but to be successful, at anything..never let those failures stop you from pressing on towards success in your future...

And sometimes...you may not get what you want...and it could make you angry......or just maybe there's a good reason that I don't know about yet...as to why, i didn't get it...



"Those who sow (work) in tears..shall reap (take in, receive) in joy!"...this was like the biggest hug to my spirit...

We get these thoughts that try to discourage us...break our spirit...steal our joy....

and we MUST...must....be diligent and courageous in our thinking...not letting these pains and hurts of life...try to stop us...and kidnap our joy...

it never fails...as soon as you start working hard for something..going after your dream...trying to quit a bad habit...repairing an emotional wound....
it seems as if a sign that says "please attack me...make this harder than it is"...comes on...and next thing you know your doubting your ability and your strength...


leave your past in your past....and run boldy to your future...it's waiting for you, as fresh as can be...every morning!!! this was typed with love...SiErRa <3

Shoot For The Stars, You Never Know Where You'll End Up!

HEY EVERYONE!!!!

So today was probably one of the BEST day's of my life! I have finally found what i love to do after 15years of searching, I LOVE Art, particularly make-up now. I decided to venture out of my shell and do something spontaneous and FUN with my make-up today. So i did! after finishing the "Art work" i decided to take it a step further and go out in public with it... dun, Dun, DUN!!!... Lo' and behold, i had 6 people came up to me saying how much they LOVED my makeup and my free spirit and bubbly personality! i felt so happy inside! 
Thats not even the BEST PART! i had 3 PEOPLE ASK ME TO DO THEIR MAKE-UP for an upcoming special event!!!!! AAAAaaahhhhh! i am soooo excited i did this! I have taken my first step to becoming a MaKe-Up ArTiSt!!!!


Here is the outcome!! hope you like it :D
