HELLO I'M NIA, AN ART STUDENT WITH AN UNHEALTHY ATTACHMENT TO SARCASM AND NETFLIX BINGE WATCHING

I remember waking up one day, seeing a tweet from YouTuber/Musician Troye Sivan saying tickets for his first U.S. shows were going on sale and I flipped. I really grew to like him as a personality as well as a singer over the course of a few months. When I see anyone I like is going on tour, I immediately freeze and ask myself two questions: 1) Do I have the money? and 2) Do I have the money? LOL. But in all seriousness, in my live I've decided to put experience over everything else and I knew I was going to regret it if I didn't at least try to get a ticket. I bought mine as soon as tickets went on sale, and somehow by a strange miracle I got one. 

When the day of the concert actually came (which was about two weeks ago), I was kind of anxious because I was going by myself, and it was my first general admission show. I felt like I was going to be bored waiting around for hours for Troye to go on, but again, miraculously I wasn't alone. I met two people, Larissa and a rising YouTuber who goes by the name Handsmile who were totally awesome! After dancing uncontrollably to a DJ who was probably just shooting the shit with a Spotify playlist, Troye finally came on and gave such a good show! It was unreal being in such an intimate venue and I'm glad I got to experience him on tour before he gets even bigger.

Here are some pictures and a couple clips from the show which I apologize in advanced for but I was not lugging around a DSLR at that time of night giiirl:




This is his song Ease, which is my favorite.

Here he was talking about what it's like being in New York City

If you haven't heard of/listened to him you should! He has really great music and his album is coming out in December so you've got a little time before then! I'm so glad I went and I would do it all over again if I could. Thanks for putting on such a great show Troye <3

Let me start off by saying I am soooo sorry I haven't posted in such a long time. If you're reading this and you're in college, then you understand just how hard it is to have a moment all to yourself to just sit and think without having a slight mental breakdown, let alone write blog posts. I could say I'll be better with my time management, but then I'd have to become a stand up comedian because that's HILARIOUS. Anyways, last month I went to Beauty Con, and if you don't know what it is... yes, it is exactly what it sounds like. It's a huge convention where beauty gurus, vendors, and everyone in-between convenes to shop and talk about all things beauty. This was my first time going, and I took one of my best friends Nicole with me. It was super fun, and here are some pictures from that.

For this, I decided if I was going to pay to get in, I'd buy a Pro Pass! I'll be honest, it was mainly for the gift bag, but who doesn't like gift bags?


Once I got inside, there was so much to see. There were people doing panels, like Jay Manuel, Jeannie Mai, Louise AKA Sparkle of Glitter! 

And there was even a #MCM panel for the "Beautycon Boys", who had great fashion sense, and them being easy on the eyes was a plus (L to R: Jordan O' Brien, Luca Fersko, Tanner Zagarino, and Aidan Alexander)


There were so many great booths, and here are just a few!











I even got to meet two of my favorite YouTubers, Maddi Bragg and Teala Dunn! (And yes I did have temporary green in my hair)

 (excuse my god awful expression)

Here's Nicole looking super adorable as always


 And yes, here's the sassy sorry not sorry look at my outfit face haha.


 And a silly one, because anyone who knows me knows I like to goof around.

I want to thank Nicole for putting up with me and coming to BeautyCon, and I also want to let anyone who is interested in makeup or skincare know they should come to this at least once in their life! It's amazing! Also, I will be doing a haul post soon for all the products I bought.
