What do you do to fill up your days? Beauty is fun and all, but what is everyone doing for their days (or nights)? Are you a full-time career woman, devoted mom, studious student (giggle)?
Me? Temptalia is like a full time job where you don’t get paid, but you put in all the effort and energy for it. I’m also a full-time law student! I used to part-time work as a transcriptionist, but I just don’t have enough time to all that. I’m not Wonder Woman, unfortunately.

Full-time law student hm? Good for you, girl! What kind of law are you going into?
I work full-time at a large financial company handling investor relations on the secondary market for residential loan products. Its really slow right now, so I have lots of internet time… I want to go back to school, but I’m trying to decide what for.
Friday, November 30, 2007
I want to go into finance – I’m hoping to get my MBA with my JD :)
Oh, sounds like fun–well, when it isn’t so slow. Any ideas for school?
Friday, November 30, 2007
Good for you! Smart girl :)
Well, I’m almost 24… you’d think I’d at least have an idea by now! But that’s hardly the case… I definitely know what I DON’T want to do so I guess that’s a good thing :) There are a few things I am interested in, one being criminology, so I’m looking it to that at the moment.
Friday, November 30, 2007
Well, good luck! :) I hope you find that right field for you!

I work part-time as a copywriter. The rest of my time, I spend on completing my degree (financial management), the internet, PS2 and my collection of adopted strays. Oh, and I mess around with cosmetics as well ;-)
Friday, November 30, 2007
Oh, financial management, love it :) I love finance, period!
How many strays do you have?
Friday, November 30, 2007
The official figure is four cats and two dogs ;) But I feed all the strays who roam around the neighborhood and eventually adopt the ones that decide to stay.
Friday, November 30, 2007
Wow, that is a menagerie! What kind of dogs? I’m a dog lover (I’m terribly allergic to cats).
Friday, November 30, 2007
Both dogs are mixed breeds – part German Shepherd and part Lord-knows-what.
Friday, November 30, 2007
LOL! My dog (well, he’s “mine” but resides at my parents and loves them more than me) is part Norfolk terrier and part-Lord-knows-what, too :) My sister’s is a mutt, too.
Friday, November 30, 2007
Well i also work in a financial institution full time 40hrs a week, and go to school 2 days a week from 6-9 majoring in marketing.. I also just recently got engaged 2 months ago so wedding planning has been taking up a lot of my spare time but iam not complaining :) its soooo much fun!
Friday, November 30, 2007
Wow, a lot of finance girls here! What kind of marketing do you want to get into? Congrats on the engagement!

I am a studious student in a Psychology/Sociology degree! When I’m not frantically typing essays (like I am now lol) I love playing Warcraft. I also tried having a part time job, but couldn’t do that and school without burning out.
Friday, November 30, 2007
How fun, Tekoa! What do you want to do with the degree? Oh, man, I used to play World of Warcraft all the time.
Friday, November 30, 2007
I’m an accountant (or accountess, as my BFF calls it!)for one of the nation’s biggest moving companies by day, aspiring horror movie reviewer by night (Fangoria just won’t return my emails!!!).
Friday, November 30, 2007
Another lady doing it big with numbers!
Aww, good luck on getting through to Fangoria ;)
Friday, November 30, 2007

Good luck with school!!

I’m a nursing student. Taking exams, doing clinicals and studying (usually only a few days before exams, haha) is what takes up my time. I also work part-time. I’m a broker for a List Brokerage company. I buy/sell/trade lists for companies to use for their advertisements.
During my down time, I like to browse beauty blogs. Your reviews are awesome and makes me not so clueless when approaching a counter filled with endless products! Also, I’m an xbox 360 fanatic. Halo 3 & Gears of War are my favorite (I dig shooter games). I’m a nursing student that loves makeup AND video games (LOL).
Friday, November 30, 2007
What a diverse set of interests, Jenny! Good luck with school :)
Friday, November 30, 2007

Friday, November 30, 2007
I manage a pizza store full time, for a New Zealand company called Hell. It’s ok for now, but I really want to get qualifications in make up artistry so I can finally do something I want with my life!
Friday, November 30, 2007
LOL! Hell, love it. I hope you’re able to get your makeup artistry qualifications soon!
Sunday, December 2, 2007
:) It’s a pretty cool concept and has done very well over here! 66 stores and counting. The guys who came up with it are millionaires now and have taken it over to the UK.

I work full time for a non-profit organization doing website & graphic design, computer troubleshooting and a bunch of other things. I’m also an artist (trying to make it my livelihood) and I like to record music.
Friday, November 30, 2007
Sounds lovely, Carrie! What kind of artist? Do you have a specific medium or a few you stick to?
Friday, November 30, 2007
Mostly I do oil painting on wooden panels, landscape-inspired stuff. :)
Tuesday, December 4, 2007
Very nice :) I love oil painting!

A big ol’ fat notn’ is what I do :) LOL
After spending three years working 60 hour weeks (I worked in politics), going to school full time (BS in business management) and being a single mom I QUIT! Yep thats right I decided that my mental health, and son, is more important than work or school. So I quit my job and dropped out of school a semester before graduation. I am slowly returning to school BUT I will never go back to work for someone else. Its self employment or nothing at all. Luckily my SO does well so I no longer need to work. I now spend my days taking sewing classes and helping fundraise for my sons school, its private school so fundraising is actually a pretty involved job. Growing up I always knew I wanted to work in politics, I did and found that after several years I grew to hate it. Currently I am trying to figure out what I want to do when I grow up :)LOL :) since the first plan wasn’t right for me.
Oh yea and I enjoy playing around with make-up :)
Friday, November 30, 2007

If you make better choices than I did I am sure you will have many wonderful years making a difference in the world and being the changes in the world you want to see. Don’t try and find the most difficult causes or parties thinking thats where you can make the biggest difference…you likely will just end up feeling like your fighting a never ending battle and after a while the battle scars start to wear you down. Also develop a thick skin if you end up working in a good old boys club, expect to be treated like a “silly girl” and roll with it until you get a chance to prove yourself and then really knock their socks off with your ability to do the job. I wish you nothing but luck, I can still close my eyes and feel the first time I was responsible for a bill passing and its up there in amazing moments along side the birth of my son.
Friday, November 30, 2007
Wow, that is a crazy work week you used to have, Tanya! I hope you’re enjoying the full-time mom status :)
