Broke Girl No. 4




     Like the three girls before me, I am crawling up to my twentieth birthday here shortly. I refuse to believe I'll be almost twenty years old, as an act of defiance I told my mother I need a cake with Mordecai and Rigby from Regular Show on it. Besides my refusal to turn twenty, I can act maturely...sometimes. I just got promoted at my job and am now working full time. On top of working forty hours a week, I somehow manage to get decent grades. I finally declared my major as psychology, you know, after changing it four times. From there, I am 100% certain I have zero ideas on what to do next. Besides work and school, I started taking guitar lessons about a month ago and am so excited! I've been playing instruments since band and orchestra in fifth grade. I can very poorly play the violin and oboe. Yet I think I could still manage to play a few scales on the flute and piccolo. Playing instruments has always been a big stress reliever in my life. Another way I cope with the stress is running. I love learning about healthy eating and yoga (I could do much better in actually practicing these...oops). Anyway! Hair care, makeup, fashion, music, concerts, health, fitness, I love it all. It's hard to divide all my love between these, but the main loves of my life are Dr. Who, Sherlock, and boy bands. So basically, you'll never know what to expect from my posts, that should keep it interesting, right?

Broke Girl No. 3




     I've always imagined that once I got a beauty blog I would be a lot better at writing an about me post, but that day has come and I've been sitting here for about thirty minutes writing and erasing everything. That probably has something to do with the fact that a majority of my course work involves writing copy and I'm never satisfied with anything. That being said here goes nothing.

Verging on twenty years old and navigating this thing they call college. Majoring in strategic communication with plans to go into media relations or something related to sports. I spend an obscene amount of time looking at ads, even when I'm not in class. I also spend a lot of time watching and reading about sports, and you guessed it, beauty products. Though during the week you can find me in some variation of leggings, a men's shirt, no make up and probably day old hair in a bun, I do know how to dress and do my make-up. If I'm not downing coffee like it's air working on a deadline, you can probably find me at one of my two places of employment.

Things I can't live without: iPhone, music (anything from rap to country), a good sports game, my Vans, an amazing mascara and of course the other four Girls.

I rant a lot. And make a lot of random purchases, mostly of things I don't need, which leads to my being broke. I'm a sucker for a good lipstick or a new Essie nail color.

Be prepared for a lot of random text posts about anything — music, school, my life, beauty — you name it I'll probably post it.

Broke Girl No. 2

     
     Yeah, yeah, I know the rest of the Broke Girls are gonna give me shit about not having a baby picture but those files are not at my convenience at the moment. And I'm all about convenience. I have four more months to be irresponsible before I dispose of the atrocity that was my teenage years. I am unfortunately attending college very far away from my Girls and miss them dearly about 82.3% of the time. If you couldn't tell from that exact number I am a science major, Microbiology to be exact. That's about as far as my plans go when it comes to my future.

My obsession is definitely makeup and skincare, although I do have a slight fetish with clothes (not nearly as much as Rachel, who I pray for to the fashion gods every night). Is fetish the right word to use? Another tidbit about me is that I often say the incorrect word/phrase to the incorrect person and get teased endlessly about it for years. Alright, back to the blog, Jenny (also I talk to myself. I'm missing a few wires, okay??) I'm definitely the least capable of writing anything in any sort of format so I apologize for any mishaps my writing may create.

I can't live without a good foundation and brow filler and I don't really wear jewelry except earrings. My style is structured but definitely has the pop, and I mean POP, of color most of my fellow Broke Girls seem to loathe so much. I wear scarves all the time. I sing at inappropriate times.

Basically watch out for posts on confessions of love over snapchat, accidental sephora purchases, and complaints of organic chemistry from this girl.

Broke Girl No. 1


¡HOLA!
    For all of you non-Spanish minors (unlike myself) out there, that means hello. So, I suppose I should write a little about myself. I am now nearly two decades old, much to my dismay, and as you've probably already guessed I am a college student. Currently I'm majoring in Communication Studies, yet still have essentially no idea what I want to do with my life. Leave your suggestions on career paths in the comments below. I commute to school and work a desk job on my off days, so there's rarely a time when I'm not frantically running around to oh, I don't know, look like a presentable human. I own way more articles of clothing than is healthy or appropriate for any woman. I'm working on it though! (sort of...) Makeup is also quite an issue. Needless to say a career as a financial planner probably isn't in the cards for me. What else? I pretty much loathe heeled shoes, seeing as I lack any type of grace or coordination whatsoever. If I could only wear one makeup look for the rest of my life it would without a doubt be winged eyeliner. Paint It Black by the Rolling Stones was actually written about my taste in clothing. I thoroughly enjoy sarcasm. And concerts. I take extreme, ridiculous measures to attend concerts. Side note: I am hopelessly in love with Harry Styles and fully intend on marrying him someday soon. So actually, don't worry about all those career suggestions. I've got it sorted. Anywho, I look forward to posting about school, my unnecessary purchases, interests, etc.! Hope all you fellow broke (or not) girls enjoy!
