And here's a shitty MSUM Preska hall bathroom pick to show it.
I'm so homesick. There's not going to be anything on here real soon, unless you want to know my classes and all that. You can also ask me for my mailing address, no creepers please, and all that.
I am currently going to Minnesota State University, Mankato for Clinical Laboratory Sciences. That means a process fluid tests. :)
I should go do my calculus homework. :/ Or call mommy... as I have been, eight times a day.

Here's the Palette I used. This is an E.L.F. Palette. (24 Shadows)
Apply Blush or an All Over Glow to your cheeks.
Finally, apply a Hot Pink Lipstick. I blotted half of mine off to make it look like a stain.
