Busy Busy Busy
As promised I am working on resizing the pics so I can post the reviews I took them for. It's taking a little longer than I planned. Ontop of finishing my Christmas shopping (YAY) I baught a little gift for myself. Just grabbed my laptop and as soon as I get it all figured out updating this will be ALOT easier! I probably sound crazy, but as addicted as I am to my net access I HATE sittingat a desk. I love being comfortable and my laptop thusfar seems to be able to help me do that!Here's wishing everyone a safe and wonderful holiday season!

Semi Update and a few random facts
I have been a little absent due to lack of images to go with planned reviews. I have finally figured outthe basics of my new camera and have taken pictures. Once I upload and crop them I will have some pic heavy reviews! I have made a promise to myself to update at least once a week!
Onto randomness now...
I find it perplexing. I don't really have many followers at all. Several times a week I do get emails from people who have read my blog. They've either come across it from my YouTube channel or other forums. I don't mind answering their emails if I can in anyway. I do wonder though.....Why not just subscribe? To me it would make more sense to subscribe and ask the question on my blog....Different strokes for different folks I guess?? So I figured since some of the questions are very repetitive I would simply post them in this entry so as not to keep answering the same inquiries.
WHY DON'T YOU TALK IN YOUR YOUTUBE VIDEOS?
To keep it simple I don't get paid. Don't get me wrong. YouTube is a great community fo the most part. I simply post videos showing how lenses look. I don't do make up reviews, electronics reviews or anything of that sort. I can write my reviews here and that's good enough. Since it's not a job I see no need to do anymore than that. The videos are just something I put up in my spare time when the spirit moves me.
WHY DO YOU ONLY POST FACE SHOTS? ARE YOU EMBERASSED BECAUSE YOU ARE SHORT AND STOCKY?
This one makes me chuckle a bit. First because while I am bigger I am not that much overweight. Second because many who ask me this assume I'm short! In reality I don't post anything but face shots because that's all I can. I don't own a dsl/dsr or whatever those fancy cameras are called nor do I own a tri pod. I also don't have a full length mirror tall enough. With no shoes on I am 6'4 1/2" tall. Yep I'm not only not short I'm also above average height.
WHAT ETHNICIY ARE YOU?
I don't really see the relevance or reasoning behind this question. I can only assume it's out of mere quriosity. I often get some people assuming I am either Latin American, Hawaiian, or some mix of Filipino. I am none of the above. Not that I really see what it matters but I am African American and Irish. That's it. No more no less.
I LIKE YOUR EYELASHES WHAT MASCARA DO YOU USE?
I sorta get annoyed by this one. In a few posts I mention the fact that some subjects such as make up I don't talk on because I don't wear it. To answer nothing. The thickness, curve, and length of my lashes is natural.
I READ YOUR BLOG AND YOU SEEM TO ALWAYS UPDATE THAT YOU WILL UPDATE SOON BUT YOU'VE BEEN BUSY WORKING.HOW MUCH CAN SOMEONE AS YOUNG AS YOU WORK?
Well I will start of by saying what I said earlier, if you read my blog often and email me feel free to SUBSCRIBE/FOLLOW my blog! That being said I work anywhere from 40-50 hours a week. That's not counting going to and from work. And I worm so much because I have bills to pay. I'm not sure how "young" people perceive me to be. In reality I'm going on 27. Like most adult members of society who contribute I work a full time job. Up until this summer/fall I was actually also working a part time job for 3 years after working my full-time job.
WHERE DO YOU GET ALL OF YOUR CONTACTS FROM AND CAN I GE SOME THERE?
I get my contacts from various places. Most frequently from JCPenny Optical (FYI it is also referred to as US Vision in some states). I occasionally order them online and from overseas. When I see a new brand I sometimes get them at a Beauty Supply Store as well. I always list where I get my lenses from. If ever unsure check the description.
Hopefully this helps those who follow me but don't subscribe (And if that's you feel free to do so now!)and any of my followers who may have been wondering anything! Anymore questions feel free to ask me in the comments!
