It's been soooo long!!

I feel horrible! I've been neglecting my poor blog. :( In my defense I've been super busy lately. Work, family, and friends are so time consuming! Not to mention my choir rehearsals and preparation for our first concert coming up on the 19th! I've had a little extra stress as I'm choreographing a few African songs that my choir is singing. It's not like we're doing crazy hard movements or a lot of real dancing. It's just that I have to put movements to  different rhythms for different singing parts. Sometimes up to 6 separate parts at once! Not only do I have to make all the dancing up, but I have to make it look good without looking overwhelming and I am no African dancer, so it can be very stressful. Then I have to attempt to teach these movements to 40 guys and gals who aren't necessarily the greatest dancers. They're doing great though and the pieces are really coming together!

Anyways, I haven't had tons of time to paint my nails over the past few weeks which is really disappointing. I've gone from painting my nails every two days to once and if I can squeeze it in, twice a week. I'm trying to make a point of getting back into my old nail routine as it is a stress release for me... we'll see how it goes. One of the manicures I did manage to fit in was with my absolute favourite nail polish, Scrangie. (Thank you so much to the lovely lady who gifted this gem to me! <3)

This is such a chameleon purple. I had to take quite a few photos in different lighting to get pictures of all the different shades of purple it turns. The under lying blue shimmer makes this polish come alive. It is totally me in a bottle.

 The application was pretty flawless. I found it a little on the thick side but I'm afraid of putting in the polish thinner I currently have. I picked up one a long time ago at Sally's Beauty supply and I'm not sure that it is really top notch. I'll have to investigate some better quality thinners before I try to fix the nail polish love of my life.

This is my first ever Rescue Beauty Lounge polish. I haven't been able to bring myself to purchase any from the website with such a steep shipping fee. >.< Oh well, this was my main lemming and I'll have to do some real investigation of colours before I attempt to make a full purchase!

Well, it's time for me to go to bed and finally sleep in after what seems like ages of working at 6 am. I'll leave you with a song my choir is going to be performing at our first concert. This is not Prairie Voices singing, but it's an awesome version!
