So…what is the Monday Poll?
Excellent question! It isn’t, contrary to its name, an actual poll, like with little clicky buttons. It’s just a list of five more or less random questions I’ve been posting on this blog every Monday morning for the past quadrillion years (since 2007). I love reading your answers, and it helps me get my week off to a good start. 🌻
1. Who makes the best lipstick?
Personal opinion? MAC and Chanel! I know their shade families, formulas, finishes, and their lippies don’t get funky as quickly as some other brands do. Also, I just like how they feel on my lips.
2. Three pieces of makeup you wear often?
The Urban Decay brow pencil, Laura Mercier Caviar Mascara and Clinique Pretty Easy Liquid Liner.
3. A lesson you learned early in life?
There won’t always be someone around to help you, so you’re going to have to figure out how to do/get it yourself if you want something.
4. A lesson you learned later in life?
Building upon my answer to the previous question, it’s *totally OK* to ask for help, and it is NOT a sign of weakness. Asking for help actually takes a lot of courage since it’s been stigmatized in our society, but it takes strength to lean on other people. The truth is, no one does it alone, despite what many people like to claim. No one makes it alone. No one succeeds alone, so don’t ever be afraid to ask for assistance.
5. Jell-O: delightful or disgusting?
Delightful! Especially with a touch of whipped cream. My favorite flavor is Strawberry.
6. The movie that most traumatized you as a child?
Salem’s Lot. Why young children were allowed to watch this at our babysitter’s house on a random Tuesday afternoon, I WILL NEVER KNOW. I wasn’t afraid of the dark before seeing that movie, but after I watched it, I ended up sleeping with a night light for years.
7. What’s one of your pet peeves about purses?
I can’t stand when a purse is too deep. Ugh! It’s too hard to find anything, and I always end up having to dump the contents onto the floor or a table to find small things like my keys.
It’s aggravating as all hell!
8. What are you reading right now?
The Giver of Stars by Jojo Moyes.
9. Lace or ruffles?
Ruffles, in moderation. I love how lace looks, but it’s too itchy!
