Happy Birthday, Blog/ Me!

Hello, everyone out there. I'm 23 today. Oh, and "Sylvia's Frosting" is born today!

Since this is my first post, I thought it was only appropriate that I introduce myself to you all. Hi, I'm Sylvia! ... Did I mention I'm 23 today? haha :( SO much to do and yet so little time! No I'm kidding. I still am plenty young to do everything and anything I want. I work for a pharmaceutical company and I actually go back to work tomorrow after a month-long hiatus (more on that later). This year is the first birthday I am spending without my friends. The ones I usually celebrate with are far away in grad school and so I've posted some pictures from my birthday last year.

Birthweek Dinner with KC in New York City

Birthday Dinner @ The Frog and the Peach, New Brunswick, NJ

This year, I'll be spending my birthday running errands around Flushing, NY, then driving home 2.5 hours to South Jersey and having dinner with my parents. I told my mom I'd prefer to have a home cooked meal since my dad will be flying in tomorrow from New Orleans. But we'll see what's in store for me today :)


Anyway, back to... more about me. I have a lot of hobbies. That plays into how social I am and how I can get along with pretty much anyone! To list a few, I enjoy reading whenever I get the chance to. I'm one of those people who sits at Barnes & Noble for a couple hours just reading novels. I love to sing. I sang ever since I was little. By no means am I the next Lady Gaga but I do sound pretty divalicious in the car and the shower. I play the piano and I've been teaching myself the guitar for some time now. I learned to use Photoshop yesterday and I love it! That cupcake you see up there is the first project I finished yesterday before making my banner. Haha, I learned partially because I started this blog, but also because I've been meaning to get into photography. *cough* I hope I get a camera for my birthday *cough* I love make up. I love nail polish. I love hair. BIG hair. Part of me thinks I was a drag queen in a past life because I am way too fabulous haha. I love food. I love to cook. and so on and so forth. So with this blog, I hope to share ALL of my hidden talents with you. Hopefully, I'll be able to upload videos in the near future.


Now, "Sylvia's Frosting." A simple explanation of where I got the name of my blog would be from one of my favorite movies, "How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days." And as defined in my header, frosting is an embellishment. I couldn't think of anything more appropriate to call my blog where I would be discussing products and techniques on how to use embellishments!  I am the canvas and everything in the world is my frosting :)


So please leave me comments. Wish me a Happy Birthday!
