Kesha's "We R Who We R". She's so catchy!

3. Something silly in your purse: Nothing particularly silly, but I do have a beautiful vintage compact that I use for the mirror in it. Unfortunately, I've never bother to clean out the crusty vintage powder in it too, so I make a huge mess every time I open it.
4. Favorite holiday: Christmas, I love the trees and the lights and the decorations, how people are nicer, and watching someone open up a gift you put a lot of thought into. Also, the food.
