About

Hey guys! I'm Angela, the girl behind the blog. I'm a twenty-something-year-old from Northern California. I started this blog because I needed a place to express my thoughts on fashion, personal style, and other creative outlets. My Tumblr is definitely more fandom based and my YouTube is more of a little bit of everything channel at the moment, so I thought it might be a good idea to just start a proper blog. Of course, if you're interested in any of those, feel free to check them out.

What do you do when you're not blogging?
I was going to school and then I decided to take an indefinite break because shit's really stressful and I can't imagine I'd do very well working as much as I do and going to school. I work currently work at Urban Outfitters as a Beauty Specialist. It's a pretty swell job despite it being in retail cause my coworkers are all amazing people and I find myself excited to go to work everyday which is amazing cause I never felt like that when I was at Crossroads. Plus I get more hours and more support from the staff at UO.

What are your favorite shows?
My all-time favorites are Pushing Daisies, Sailor Moon, Band of Brothers, Elementary, Twin Peaks, Black Books, Merlin, Firefly, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer. My current favorites are Bob's Burgers, Metalocalypse, Broadchurch, Gilmore Girls, and uh...I think that's it?

Movies?
Amelie, The Fall, The Princess Bride, Labyrinth, Clue, Howl's Moving Castle, Princess Mononoke, Never Let Me Go, An Education, Pride and Prejudice (2000s ver.), The Cornetto Trilogy, Attack the Block, Pacific Rim, The Devil's Backbone, and I guess that's it. Those are the ones off the top of my head anyway.

What kind of stuff do you read typically?
I read a lot of YA so a lot of the novels sound very VERY similar to one another. I love to read fantasy, horror, supernatural, and just general fiction. I also read a lot of classic literature, mainly British literature but I have read some classic American literature mainly because of the English Literature classes I've taken.

Favorite authors/writers?
Mmm, Neil Gaiman, J.K. Rowling (Slytherin, woo!), Jane Austen, Markus Zusak, Lemony Snicket, Diane Setterfield, Julie Kagawa, and Virginia Woolf, to name a few. Also, I've been getting into Stephen King recently due to my boyfriend's recent interest.

Favorite books/series?
Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling, A Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket, Stardust by Neil Gaiman, Good Omens by Terry Pratchet and Neil Gaiman, American Gods by Neil Gaiman, Coraline by Neil Gaiman, Northanger Abbey by Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen, A Room of One's Own by Virginia Woolf, Mrs. Dalloway by Virginia Woolf, 
Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro, The Book Thief by Markus Zusak, and uh, The Thirteenth Tale by Diane Setterfield.



How would one get in contact with you?
You can email me at angiechuwho@gmail.com, tweet at me, send me a comment on here, send me a message/ask on Tumblr, and you can message/leave a comment on my Facebook page. Links to all of those are located to the right.

Where do you get your clothes?

Thrift stores, Urban Outfitters, Goodwills, and most mall stores.

What is your natural hair color?
Dark brown, almost black.

What color did you dye your hair?
I used to buy intense auburn for dark hair from Garnier and then dye my hair with that. Right now, my hair is dirty blonde with orangey and light brown highlights. 

How much time do you spend blogging?
I used to spend a lot of my free time blogging on here and on Tumblr, but between work and juggling time with my boyfriend, my friends, and my family (yes, that is in priority order i.e. boyfriend and friends before family), I've unfortunately had to cut down on blogging time to make room for working, sleeping, and eating. So I haven't been able to post on here as much. I do update my Instagram and Tumblr A LOT though just because that can be done from my phone. 

What kind of stuff do you write?
I post mainly drabbles and short shorts. They're typically horror/suspense/thriller or fantasy/supernatural. I also write (or attempt to) longer fiction (novels and short stories). For those, it's typically fiction and fantasy. I tend to stray from writing horror-type novels or short stories just because I'm not good enough at keeping the tension going longer than a short story. Perhaps someday though.

Favorite beauty brands/products?
I'm fond of a lot of drugstore brands like Maybelline, Neutrogena, and Rimmel. Other brands I like are Benefit, Shiseido, Clinique, Lorac, Urban Decay, and Tarte. I also love a lot of Asian beauty brands like Etude House, Innisfree, The Face Shop, and Holika Holika. 

What's your makeup routine?
It's not anything too crazy so I might make a post about it someday. 

Are you in a relationship?
I am! I'm in a very wonderful and happy-inducing relationship with this cute boy.

How did you two meet?
We met online and after some talking, we agreed to meet in person at The Comedy Spot downtown when it became known that we were both already planning on going there on the same night. He was going to do the open mic and I was going to support a friend of mine who was also doing the open mic. We met and there was just this immediate connection and it was just perfect.

Do you get sponsors?
I don't, but if I did, I would most certainly let people know. I have gotten offers from sites before but after I replied, they failed to keep up contact or did not reply back.

Any last words?
I hope you guys enjoy the blog!
