CHRISSY TEIGEN PAID A WOMAN'S ENTIRE BEAUTY SCHOOL TUITION!

Daily Mail

An angel came knocking at one woman's door on Friday when she got a generous donation from one of Hollywood's favorite models, Chrissy Teigen.

Skin Care Consulatant and owner of Ixora Botanical Beauty , Mercedes E, had established an account on the crowdfunding site, YOUCARING, with hopes of raising enough money to pay for her tuition at the Academy of Nail Technology & Esthetics.

What happened next was the wildest of her dreams.

Just in a few short hours, her initial goal of $5,995, was surpassed when Chrissy Tiegen donated $5,605, and commentted saying "I've seen this be your passion for such a long time now. So excited to see you fulfill your dream!"

Unable to keep the excitement to herself, the North Carolina native took to her Twitter account (@CruzanChoklate) to share the screenshotted photo of Chrissy's comment on her crowdfund page, followed by a series of tweets.

"omg. I'm going to cry."

"Somebody just paid my entire tuition for esthetician school. OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGG"

"i AM ABOUT TO PASS OUT."

"I don't even have the words right now. I'm trying to speak to my mom and I can't even use words properly."

"i AM LITERALLY BAWLING MY EYES OUT."

""I'm crying again. I don't even know how I'm gonna get through work tonight," she wrote.

Before she knew it, an outpour of comments came flooding in.

"Congrats @CruzanChoklate!! and FTR @IxoraBB is a rad small-op beauty company, their lip balms are especially great," Cartoonist at the ONI PRESS, Amanda Scurti, wrote.

"Chrissy Teigen out here financially supporting the dreams of black women? Im shook, congrats girl!" @simonafrancine tweeted out.

Wow. I haven't been feeling great about humanity lately but so glad I saw this in my feed. More of this, humans! <3" -@carrieanntweets wrote.

THANK YOU! Nobody deserves this act of kindness more than @CruzanChoklate. Y'all are both amazing. This is so wonderful."- @TheJazzyBelle wrote.

"Anyway. Be more like Chrissy. She just paid @CruzanChoklate's entire esthetician school tuition. I want to see more news like THAT," POPSUGARBeauty Reporter, Kirbie Johnson tweeted out.

"I am beyond happy right now. I don't even think anybody can truly understand what this means to me. THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH!! @chrissyteigen I don't even know how else to thank you right now."

The Sports Illustrated responded back saying "I'm really excited for you to live out your passion <3 <3 <3"

Mercedes revealed that she plans on enrolling into her dream school tomorrow.

Tulane University

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

14 Things The Extremely Pale Are Tired Of Hearing

I get it... I'm pale.

University of Vermont

2610

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
