Internet Headaches = No New Videos

Hello! And much love to anyone who is reading this! I am exhausted. I've had quite a busy few days. I just had my first day of work for the summer and I've got a huge list of things I need to do at home as well.

If anyone's been on my youtube channel you'll see that I was complaining about Bell Internet (If you're not interested just skip this paragraph). For the past two months we've had family staying with us (including a tween & a teen). So, we're using a lot more internet than we usually would. Two months ago we blindly paid the bill (making the mistake of trusting Bell). Last month's bill came and I was the one who noticed that there was a 60$ overage charge. I called and spoke to a woman named Ketty in the "Household Resolution Centre" who was a huuuuuge bitch. She basically told me if I was trying to get a credit it "wasn't going to happen" and that she was sorry but we can add more gigs if I wanted. Previously being with Rogers, they warn you on your browser when you're approaching your limit. I repeatedly told her no, I didn't want to spend more money, I just wanted to know why I wasn't warned. She tells me that they don't tell customers how much they're using due to "privacy", but if you sign up for it online they will send you an email once you've reached a certain point (choice of 50, 75, 90). The woman didn't even try to offer any kind of customer service. she even yelled at me multiple times. I kept telling her this isn't personal but this isn't good customer service, she needs to calm down for which she said "I AM CALM!". Ridiculous. I hope they fire her. Anyways, since I'm not the account holder I couldn't talk to anyone above her (she was a "supervisor" she said). Once my mom came home, she verified herself and told them to deal with me. After which a woman from Customer Resolution was extremely nice and tried to help me reduce my bill. I'm still not sure, I might switch my services to Rogers depending on what they can offer me! It was really an annoying experience and that woman enraged me so much, I really hope she gets fired. I've been in customer service for years and it's not about the problem...it's about trying to find a solution.

Anyways, in the end. I can't upload any new videos for a few days! It's very annoying. But I'm looking to start off the summer well.

Anyways, I should really be sleeping I've got to be up early for work.

Goodnight! xo

Update

This weekend was my birthday so I was really busy with family. Unfortunately my little cousin got sick and got everyone else in my house sick, so I've been recovering. I'm feeling better today so I'll definitely be working on a video and/or some posts.

Thanks so much for your patience!

I'm done this semester!

I'm so incredibly happy, I had my last exam this afternoon. For my favorite class of course, Makeup Applications. I was up all night, so I ended up crashing about an hour after I got home.

I'm so excited to get to work on videos, I feel like I haven't done one in forever!

BUT here's what I'm debating right now...should I transfer all my posts into tumblr and use that as my blog? Or should I keep blogspot? I feel like nobody ever comes here lol.

Well I'm going to go get some opinions. Look out for more videos VERY SOON!

EXAMMMSS!

Hey everyone! I'm going through my Skin Care class notes and it all became blurry so I thought I'd take a little break and blog. I think I have to do more videos on skin care! It's something so important and that goes hand in hand with make up, that I think I should talk about it more! I currently have two Skin Care videos though: My Skin Care Routine (which is specifically for Oily, Blemish Prone Sensitive Skin), there is some important information in there for all skin types though and a Skin Care Basics video, where I just went through some Skin Care information. I'll try to make one soon so all the information is fresh in my mind!

Wish me luck!

Wow OVERDUE!

Hey everyone, so I've been quite busy with school and haven't even thought about blogging lately. I've tried and failed to make videos a few times but I'm sooo busy and stressed out. Exams start on Friday so I'll be disappearing again, deep into my books until it's over. By then it'll be my birthdayyyyy (yay!).

In the mean time...please contact me with requests etc.!

Foundation

I always see a lot of questions about foundation online. Here's my advice to you if you're not sure what you want or are looking for a new foundation. Find a Make Up Artist! It's always better to be safe than sorry. Go to any Make Up Counter or Drug Store etc. and let them know what you're looking for.

You should be prepared with three things:
1) What kind of skin do you think you have? (Dry, Combo, Oily etc.)
2) What kind of coverage do you want? Where/When will you be wearing this? (Light, Medium, Full)
3) What kind of finish would you like? (Matte, Dewey/Satin, Semi-Matte)


You're not required to buy! You can even ask them to try a foundation for you and wear it for the day and see how you like it.

I hope this helps some of you! xo J
