...Introduce Yourself.

Hello again fellow readers (or lack thereof). :) I haven't properly introduce myself therefore I will take this opportunity to formally introduce myself.

I remember when I was in school and the teachers/ professors would ask the students to introduce themselves. I could handle any workload that was assigned throughout the semester, but what I couldn't handle was having to stand up (even if it's only for 2 minutes) to briefly introduce myself.

My introduction would be as simple and brief as possible with minimal eye contact. I even at times mumble and avoid asking my fellow classmates if they had any questions. Of course, it's not the classmates that you have to worry about, it's the teachers/ professors! I was horrified...can you just give me the syllabus so we can learn, already?

Anyways...I grew up in Texas. Yes, the heat is insane here during the summer and traffic is always stuffy, but I'm not complaining because it means people are working and that's a great thing in today's economy. I was born in September which makes me a Virgo. My birthday is quickly approaching and I cannot wait to celebrate it with my family and friends. It will be my last year in my twenties! Oh, the horror. No worries because if you didn't know...30's are the new 20's. People don't grow older; they grow fabulous-er? LOL

I graduated from the University of Houston (Main Campus) with a BS in Dietetics and Nutrition. I am not pursuing that field; instead I am working in the legal field. What a swap, but I love it. I have a 9 year old son and let it be known he's the love of my life; he's my heartbeat, my everything, the reason why life is great even when it's rocky.

My "BBD" and I have been together for 10 years! Wow a decade! He was hospitalized in April 2012 (the same week that my former boss passed away) and I stayed with BBD day and night at the hospital by his bedside. Yes, I love him that much. While bored out of my mind, I find things that could occupied my time. I came across some nails polish swatches and frankly, at the time I was really tired of my acrylic nails. I had it done every 2-3 weeks and they were very damaging to my nails. My nails were ready for a change.

I started to read blogs and search for swatches and purchased and still purchasing any colors I can lay my hands on. My very first nail polish fascination was Chanel. Within a month, I accumulated over 40 bottles...all brand new including discontinued colors that I paid several limbs for. I wish I loved nail polish sooner, like 10 years sooner so I could have all of Chanel most sought after colors.

Chanel releases new colors several times a year therefore I stay on top of the releases and make sure I grab a bottle or two as soon as it hits the Chanel website, Chanel boutique, or the Chanel counters at major department stores. My latest acquisition is Sky Line that's on it's way to me. It was released yesterday and I jumped on it as fast as I could. Then later in the day, the colors for Fashion Night Out 2012 became available for pre-order and guess what I did? I pre-ordered it! :D It'll be release in September...my birthday month! *Woot.

I hope you're enjoying the Chanel Nail Polish eye-candy. I will be back soon to update with more later but first I am off to my mom's house for salmon and steak night. I'm so hungry I can eat a cow (no pun intended).
