Four

Joining in on the Four posts today :) 

FOUR nicknames
1. StreetStyleStef - 6 years ago when I joined twitter, they didn't have enough characters for StreetStyleSteph.  Since then, StreetStyleStef has been my nickname for practically anything social media.  As a result, many people think my name is Stef.
2. Smallsen.  That's a result of Nicholas and my last names combined.  We started calling ourselves the Smallsens shortly after we started dating (He was Small, and I was Sorensen), and even changed our last names on facebook to Smallsen.  To this day, the majority of our friends (and even family) think my last name is Smallsen.  About half on the mail/cards we receive from loved ones is usually addressed to the Smallsens.
3. Stephy/My Love/Babe - that's what Nicholas usually calls me.
4. Mom - a new one Im glad to have :)
 
FOUR jobs I've had. 
 
I think I knew at a young age my first job would involve water - since I was always on the beach or in the ocean.
 
1. Lifeguard/Aquasize instructor
2. Dental Assistant
3. Tradeshow Coordinator for a baby shoe company
4. Journalist for a Vancouver Social Media/Events company
 
FOUR movies I've watched more than once
 
My all time fave surf movie that's not a documentary.  I was ecstatic when Netflix added it so I can always watch it on repeat
 
1. Higher Learning
2. Dazed and Confused
3. Poetic Justice
4. Point Break
 
FOUR things in my purse.
 
I have a mommy diaper bag too - but this is my actual go-to which is more like a crossbody wallet that miraculously holds a lot.

2. YSL babydoll kiss & blush. This is my go-to lipgloss.
3. Sample/travel size perfume
4. 2 Sets of keys.
