I Can't Believe My Family Takes Selfies !!

Hey,

The other day I was just scrolling through my mum's camera roll ( probably 200 + pictures ) As I was scrolling through the pictures , I saw a selfie that my mum had taken . I was shocked . I kept on scrolling and soon alot more selfies came up. They weren't pouty selfies , they were just selfies - serious selfies .It came to my attention that she had also downloaded Retrica ( An amazing selfie taking app )
       My friend  added her as a contact ( Don't ask why , Even I don't know myself to be honest ;-P ) Which means that she has access to my mum's whatsapp profile pictures , which always tend to be my mum's selfies ...
   My mum isn't the only person in my family 'in touch' with  their inner '20th Century Life ' ( I had no other words to describe that ...) My dad once texted me 'Lol' . I was really surprised , because my dad is generally a very formal man , I also felt  slightly embarrassed  because my friends were right next to me when the text came , and they looked at me as if I was completely mad . Luckily , i'm not the only one with parents who are completely bonkers . One of my best friend's parents think they are super cool too , I think one of them even has snapchat !
   Sadly , it doesn't end there. I was talking to my grandparents over the phone as they live in India , and my grandad said 'Why don't you take a selfie and send it to us ?'  I nearly fainted because I didn't even know 'selfie' was in their vocabulary . That's not all , my grandma , then said , ' When  I take selfies they make me look different ' I didn't even know she took selfies ;-P
   I added her on whatsapp and as my profile picture only shows  half of my face she sent me a message saying ' The picture is not clear , I can only see half of your face ' . I responded saying           ' Don't Worry - it's a style of selfie taking ' , her response made me laugh in a good way 'Oh i'm so sorry , I did not know it was a style *inserts distraught face*' Okay so the insert  distraught face bit was just because computers don't have emogis , but she actually had sent an emogi ( if that makes sense !) So , I then sent a picture of my sister and I  . I smiled because I feel that pouting is inappropriate for grandmas ( even if they do take selfies ) You would have expected my little sister to smile too , but no - my sister went for a full on pout . I guess I have myself to blame - for many reasons ...

• One- I take alot of pouty selfies around her .
• Two- I encourage her to pout in pictures to annoy my dad ( I know right , he likes abbreviations but no pouting - How could he ?! )
• Three - Well.... I may have given her lessons on how to take an awesome selfie along with my friend...

Ermmm... well , if you think about it , it's only 3 reasons  , so it can't completely be my fault , can it ?Maybe it can ... 

I bet there are alot more people with selfie taking grandmas - abbreviating dads - pouting sisters  etc. If you have another embarrassing relative - feel free to comment down what they do ! It will be very funny  to read some of them , and maybe some of us can relate to you !Think of it as a good old chat about our mad ones ;-)

                                 Bye !

Would You Rather Tag - Beauty Edition

Hey !

So this is my second post , and I have decided to do the 'Would You Rather Tag -Beauty Edition' . This basically is a bunch of questions about beauty. I thought this would be fun , and as I am a mega beauty-a-holic (is that even a thing ?) I thought it would be interesting . So here goes nothing !


Question 1 - Would you rather apply lipstick as eyeliner , or eyeliner as lipstick ?

I would probably choose eyeliner as lipstick, because bright pink and red eyes would just look weird , and at least if you have black lips you can pass off as a goth , couldn't you ? :-P


Question 2 - Would you rather never be able to fill your eyebrows , or only use a sharpie to fill them ?

I would say never fill them , because i'm not really an eyebrow person ,  I rarely need to fill them .


Question 3 - Would you rather only use one eyeshadow colour or one lip colour for the rest of your life ?

 That's a tough one ...I  think I would go for one eyeshadow colour for the rest of my life , because I usually go for  a natural colour  , and if you have, for example , blue eyeshadow only a small selection of  lip shades go with it , whereas nude eyes go with loads of lip shades !

Question 4 -Would you rather where dark or bright nails all year round ?

I think I would choose bright nails , because I generally like bright nails , and I usually wear them anyway , so it wouldn't be a great loss if I couldn't wear dark nails .

Question 5 - Would you rather give up your favourite lip product or eye product ?

Lip product because my favourite eye product has a variety of shades in it ( Barry M  Natural Shadow and Primer Glow palette 2 ) Whereas my favourite lip product ( Revlon - number 49 - Brickstone ) is only 1 colour .

Question 6 - Would you rather go out with messy hair & make-up , or nice hair & no make-up ?

Messy hair & Make-up , because I can always scrape my hair into a messy bun , or ponytail etc.

Question 7 - Would you rather have neon green hair , or wear neon green lipstick for the rest of your life ?

I would rather have neon green hair , because I could do more with it , and I  wouldn't look like puffy lipped frog (if you get what I mean )

Question 8- Would you rather wear your make-up all the time(even when you sleep!) , or never wear it ?

I would never wear it , because  it's bad for your skin, if you wear it all the time. Also it would smudge if you cried or accidentally rub it off etc.

So , that was the 'Would you rather  Tag-Beauty Edition ' . I randomly chose questions from youtube videos & Google  , as there were LOADS of questions , and I couldn't possibly answer them all . I hoped you enjoyed this post , and feel free to comment what you would have chosen  and why ,

                                 Thanks  for reading !( I should get  special greeting and 'goodbye' words ;-P )
                                                               

Introducing...Me...!

Hey !

I don't really know where to start , this is my blog . I have wanted to make one for ages , but I was stuck on ideas of what to call it  , and I think I worried a bit too much about whether the public would like my posts or not . 

   If you are wondering , what 'beti' means , it means daughter/girl. I decided to make this blog because I just wanted my own internet space . 

   This blog is where i'm going to just be me . I don't want to reveal myself because I like the idea of blogging under a secret identity , and also I just want to be myself without being judged . I'm not even going to tell my friends . My parents know , but that's because i'm hopeless at keeping secrets and because I don't have my own laptop (yet !) I have to use my mum's , and she would get suspicious if I always hog the laptop . Also I trust them not to tell ANYONE , even though when I was little my mum would have a meeting with her friends where they would all gossip about their own child's life , my mum shared some pretty dark secrets , even though she acts as if it never happened  , when you ask her now. 

     I feel that girls generally seem to be more insecure than boys. You don't always have to look perfect , half of the time , i'm in a hoodie and sweatpants ! I do love beauty though , it's probably one of my guilty pleasures , saying that , I don't wear make-up ALL the time , just when i'm going out , or if I just want to , I don't know ? Pretend i'm a supermodel ? Yep , I like to imagine unreal things , i'm a bit of a daydreamer ;-)

   Since this blog is anonymous , there will be no selfies , or pictures of my family . There will be pictures though , just not of them .

  I'm not going to reveal my age , my postcode  , or anything like that . At the moment I don't have any social media specifically for my blog , so for the time being ignore the social media icons ;-) Despite this , I do have a special email for your questions , which is : betionlinemail@gmail.com . I bet 50% of you thought that was a link , haha ;-)

             If anyone actually read this , thanks ! And please feel free to comment what you want to read ! If I can , I will post them , but remember I can't always do everything , and to be honest , it is going to be a bit quiet initially , but that's okay , because no one is going to get 1000 followers overnight , right?

                                           Until my next post -Bye !
