Why Every Girl Should Own a Red Lipstick
Marilyn Monroe

Every girl, make-up lover or not, should own a red lipstick. Why? Because you look like a boss-ass bitch that’s why!

I'm personally a makeup addict. I do my makeup every morning, no questions asked. For me, the lips are the most challenging part: I hate my lips. They aren’t very full and the upper one is small and uneven with my bottom. I have super shaky hands too, so trying to over-line my upper lip always turns out awful and messy! So for the most part, I usually wear a neutral color lipstick that won’t be too noticeable, so it won’t draw attention to my lips. One day, I was casually swatching all my makeup got to my lipstick colors. I had mostly nudes, some wee bit darker fall shades, and then I came across a bright red lipstick that I got in an Ipsy Glam Bag a few months ago. I swatched it and absolutely loved the color because it made me think of Christmas and winter. I took off my current lipstick and put on the red. Immediately, I felt I could run the world. I felt confident, bold, and ready to take on my day. I couldn’t believe the mood it put me in. I grabbed my phone and sent out a mass snap my Snapchat friends. Everyone who replied said they honestly loved it. And my boyfriend liked it, so that’s really all that matters. It's so important to feel confident with yourself and express who you are. I've been recently using makeup to express myself how I want and I don’t worry about what other people think of me.

Makeup is meant to be fun and too many people in the world today judge. Some people don’t give a damn, but others get super self-conscience when people say something about their makeup. So my advice to those people, fuck 'em. You do you. Wear that red lipstick and run the world.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
