Tag, You’re it…? Six Quirky Facts!

Okay. This is just freaky. Just published my own Six Unimportant Facts Tagging Me” and then found your article through TwitterVision. This game is spreading pretty fast, no?

My Facts:
1. I think nuts ruin all desserts!
2. I can roll my tongue upside down and into 1, 2, and 3 curls.
3. I can twirl my pen around my thumb forward and backward.
4. I don’t like to travel… at all.
5. You know those pictures that you have to stare “through” to see the picture, and it’s supposed to jump out at you in 3D? Well, I can’t do those. I’ve really tried, and I just can’t.
6. I teach 7th and 8th graders because I really love kids that age, and I loved middle school when I was in it!

Beauty Quirks…
1. I sleep with my makeup on almost every night, and I’ve never had any problems with it.
2. I don’t really use lip liner very often.
3. I’m a hoarder and love collecting things - so I often buy makeup just to have as a part of my collection, but don’t intend on wearing much.
4. I’m a total sucker for LE stuff.
5. I don’t set money limits when I buy make-up. And if I like two things, I always get both. :-)
6. I always carry at least 5-10 different lip glosses and lipsticks with me…just so I can have options hehe :-)

Six quirky facts about me:

1) I hate Cilantro (Corriander in the U.K). Especially when it’s piled on top of food to garnish it. Why would you do that? Why?
2) Whenever somebody I know passes away, I dream about it happening the night before and wake up totally freaked out. It happened just four days back actually…
3) I’m allergic to anything small enough to get up my nasal passages…dust, pollen, powdery deodourant and especially Lilies!!
4) I can fall asleep anytime, anywhere. In the car, train, planes, standing up on the underground…just give me 5 minutes and I’m gone.
5) I can never listen to a song all the way through on my iPod. I get bored a minute in and switch, and then go back to the previous song and do the same again!

Six beauty quirks:

1) No matter what colour, shade or tone of foundation I use, my face looks like Casper in photographs…and I’m Indian (NC35)!! Even if I wear a darker shade with no SPF and no reflective base etc, I still come out white as a sheet!
2) I have trillions of lipsticks & lipglosses and all the expensive ones, like Dior, YSL etc are the ones that don’t really suit me much. The cheapo ones I have however that cost me a couple of bucks are the ones I used for my graduation, engagement and will probably also wear on my wedding day!
3) I still haven’t found the perfect styling product for my curly/wavy hair…so I just don’t wash out my conditioner and it makes my curls look great!
4) Right now I have 4 different mascaras in my bag…none of which I have used in months! They just have to be there….
5) I knew I had SERIOUS make up obsession issues when I was en route to see my b/f after he had a car accident (it wasn’t serious,he was just freaked out but not hurt at all) and I stopped off at MAC to buy a lipstick…I was repulsed at myself and swear I am not selfish…I really think it was retail therapy!!!

Zzainy..

1. I’m allergic to a bunch of things, but, most peculiar of them all is a steroid called pulmicort. On its own, pulmicort has the opposite of the desired effect and makes me stop breathing. However, when combined with other things in a drug called symbicort, it helps my breathing immensely! (I’m rather asthmatic, by the way).

2. My hair has been pretty much every colour you can think of, at least in streaks, if not full head. Exceptions: yellow or gray/silver/platinum.

3. My room can be a total mess, but I’m absolutely fanatical about having collections (dvd, books, cds, makeup, etc) organized. Makeup is divided into categories and other things are alphabetized. I alphabetize because then I know other people can figure out the system, too, and put things back properly. :D

4. I can rarely find women’s sneakers to fit my feet, so I’ve been buying men’s sneakers for years. The plus? They’re a better made product and last longer!

5. I used to be such a fiend for cheese that people would give me large blocks of cheese as presents. I’ve settled down some on that front.

6. My room is my cave. The only other person permitted entrance other than myself is my boyfriend. I get very upset if people go in without explicit permission - I feel invaded then.

Round two!

1. I pretty much never curl my lashes. They’re long and I’m quite content with how they frame my eyes as is. They are also rather bad at holding any added curl. :D

2. Eyelash curlers remind me of torture tools.

3. I very, very rarely use pencil eyeliners - I just don’t find I get enough precision (I’m all about the fluidline with a brush). I also almost never use anything on my waterline.

4. I can’t deal with navy mascara. It reminds me of my mother’s spidery lashes. No thanks.

5. For years and years I never bothered with makeup because I had only tried drugstore and found it useless - there was no real colour payoff and it just came off anyway, so why bother?

6. My friends make fun of me for my makeup addiction, but admit that mine is healthier/takes up less space than theirs, and whenever they have a makeup/beauty question they come to me!

3. I use Milk of Magnesia as my face primer…helps with oil control.

Hi, I am pretty new to your website but I’m already addicted. Here are some facts about me:
1) I’m currently studying for my LSAT and I HATE the logic games, though I love the logical reasoning questions. The logic games questions take me like 10 minutes for each question, and I usually get them wrong anyways.
