I'm Lucky My Favorite Colors are Purple and Green

I went from posting 4 times in 4 days to a whole week without a post. This was not the plan I assure you!
I was actually going to do a whole week of makeup posts to get some use out of my barely-used palettes, but then.. um..
THIS happened:


So. Yea. No amount of primer in the world can make a week full of makeup posts look good if you've got a black eye.
Don't be alarmed, I'm fine. I just went to a Awol Nation/ A Day to Remember/ Rise Against concert on Saturday and well, IT WAS THEE MOST EPIC SHOW OF MY LIFE.

I'm actually freakishly proud of it, it's like my little badge of honor. I named it Henrietta, because I wouldn't let this drunk guy get in front of me so I pushed him and he head-butted me. He had spikey hair that reminded me of Dwight's porcupine on last week's episode of The Office (whose name was Henrietta).

It's kind of funny actually, on the way to the show I told my sister I wasn't coming home without battle scars. (Is there anything worse than going to a show and then coming home without anything to show for it but soreness?? ....just me?)

Anyway, the show was my sister's Christmas present because Rise Against is her all-time favorite band and she moped around for months when we couldn't go to see them in Anaheim, plus we've seen Awol Nation and A Day to Remember before and they usually have a pretty amazing show.

My sister and I always spend the day after looking for youtube vids of the show:



That ball went right over my head! It was the coolest thing until this happened later on when Rise Against played:
(look extreeeeemely closely at the bottom middle of the screen at 2:24 minutes in)



Yea. That was me crowd surfing. My first time! Uuuugh it was so much fun.
My sister did it too but I don't remember what time she did it during this song... *EDIT* She's at 4:10 :)

Anyway, my eye wasn't too bad when I got home, it looked like this:


But the next morning....



My thought process about it went something like this:





Again. Freakishly proud.
So I think instead of makeup posts I'm going to take a few days off to work on some sewing projects so I can posts about those instead. Haha. Hope you are all having amazing (and safe) Decembers!!
