I never buff my nails, though i should hahaha.
I clean my nails with acetone then apply a clear basecoat (usually sally hansen but sometimes random clear polish).
let it dry ENTIRELY. It shouldn't be sticky to the touch. I usually wait 2-5 minutes. Apply the color in several coats, waiting between coats for drying. Then apply a top coat (i use sally hansen or Fresh Paint's "finished"). Let your hands rest for as long as possible, but definitely invest at least 10-15 minutes to be sure the polish is completely dry. After that avoid banging your nails (it'll chip) or soaking them for extremely long periods of time (it'll peel).
Sometimes it's just the nailpolish. Delia's nail polish peels super easy -_-

Or you can just colour the bangs!:

Favorite Musicals?
Started about 1 year ago · Last post about 1 month ago ·
Easy:
1) The Lion King- FAVE MUSICAL EVER OOMMMGGGGGG
2) Repo! The Genetic Opera (but I don't think it was on broadway... it's more of an alternative thing.)
3) Sweeny Todd: Because when little boys sing...
LOVE LOVE LOVE
I like Andrew Lloyd Webber's music in general. And Stephen Soundheim.

What weird things do you find attractive?
Started about 2 years ago · Last post 10 months ago ·
There are so many things! I agree with all the people who said hair. I like long hair, but as long as it suits the person I'm good.
Canines! A flash of those and I'm done.
Intense eyes.
This might be a music thing, but I reallllly like tenor ones. The guys that sing kinda high but don't sound like girls. Love it!
If a guy isn't afraid to wear makeup/nail polish-I'm in.
But he can't be prettier than me. (:
