Day 274

This past weekend, Beckie, from Turn for the Nurse, was a little sweetheart and passed on a Versatile Blogger Award to me. She's such a doll. If you aren't already following her, what are you doing with your blog-life?

Beckie is also a far better blogger than I, and she is mad-involved with the blogging world.

Since I'm only half-involved, I am going to be lazy and only do half of the rules.

Because apparently awards have rules these days.

There are four rules to this award.

1. Thank the person who gave you the award.

2. Answer 10 very important questions.

3. Pass on the award to ten people.

4. Let those people know you did something for them.

Eh. I'll do one and two.

Without further ado...

1. Thank you, Beckie! You are adorable and a joy to follow! Much love!

2. Ten Questions

Why did you create this blog?

I created this blog because I miss my girlfriend in unreasonable amounts. I thought, "Hey! Why don't I use a blog to keep track of the days? I'll call it 365 Days and Counting!" I thought this was soooooo original. ...........it's not. But unlike most other counting-downers, I started with 365 instead of 1. Because it just makes more sense that way.

What kinds of blogs do you follow?

Eh, I follow mostly military spouse bloggers. I follow my girlfriend, even though she doesn't update. I follow an old friend from my study abroad cruise who just had twins. I occasionally browse to see if there are any other types of blogs I'd like to follow on Blogger, but nothing has really caught my attention just yet.

Favorite make-up brand?

Uuuuh. .... I don't know? I don't wear any... I guess if I'm in a pinch, I'd just run to Walmart and get some Cover Girl. I say that because that's exactly what I did when I was in the Pride of the Southland Color Guard. They had a "You Must Wear Make-Up" Rule for game days. I hated every second.

Favorite clothing brand?

Again, I'm not really sure. I will shop anywhere. I do have a great love for J. Crew, but I rarely buy from there as I rarely see anything that I truly love... I don't understand that logic either.

Indispensable makeup product?

Chapstick. Burt's Bees Original to be exact. Carmex, if we're desperate.

Favorite color?

Purple, followed by a deep Green. Looooove...

Favorite perfume?

I don't really wear it... I have this one bottle that mom got me from Aeropostle a trillion years ago. It's the tiniest little thing, and I have yet to use it up. I wear it only on special occasions when I just happen to remember.

Favorite film?

Star Wars. Hands Down. No Competition.

What country would you like to visit and why?

I am sorry that my answers are so lame, but it's really hard for me answer this question. I literally cannot pick just one country. I am that girl that will happily go anywhere in the world. And I look forward to all the traveling I'll be doing with Zee. But! To make at least one answer in this post interesting, I will say that I have been to Puerto Rico, Hawaii, Costa Rica, Brazil, Honduras, South Africa, Mauritius, India, Malaysia, Vietnam, Hong Kong, China, and Japan. Technically I have also been to Canada and Chile. But Canada we literally just popped in to visit a family, glimpsed Niagara Falls in the dark, and left. And Chile... well, my mom was pregnant with me. That kinda counts. Haha.

Would you rather forget to put mascara on one eye or forget blush on one side of your face?

Blush. My eyelashes are long enough to be noticeable if I forget one. But my face gets red so easily, you'd never notice the difference. :)
