Sorry about the random posting but i feel that it's going to be like this for a while more. I'm still trying to figure out how much work I need to do to get the grades I got last year. But I have so much to say!
First off, makeup. I know many people who are concerned with the chemicals in the products they wear. This is totally reasonable (who wants to buy something bad for you?) but good products that aren't filled with chemicals are hard to find. I have a certain standard for my products chemically but with mascara and lip gloss these go out the window. I want my lip gloss to be slightly tinted, and normally VERY shiny. This doesn't happen in the natural products I've found. Also with mascara, I want big, dark, glossy, separated and full lashes. Same problem as lip gloss but I'm almost there with my eyelashes. I have a natural lash builder that I layer under my mascara so I don't have to put tons on. This isn't perfect but I'm interested in you, Are you more interested in results, or the label in the back?
Secondly, since it's awards season, I want to talk about dresses. Though there hasn't been too many this year I'd like to speak about the strapless fishtail dress. I feel there is so much bias against this and I don't like it. Yes, a l0t of the time it's boring and bland but the people showing us these dresses have a bias before seeing the dress. I mean, everyone remembers the line of boring dresses last year but how many remember Anne Hathaway's Armani sequin dress? A lot I hope. So don't bash the strapless fishtail dress!
Lastly, and shortly, I made crepes last night and they're sooo fun! Everyone should make them because after the third time it's easy and fun and with a little powder sugar delicious!

1st day of school

It's been a nice day. School was iffy. It was fun to see my friends but homework. Today we tried out for teams and I tried out for soccer. It was hot and longer than gym in the past so I am beat. Plus I walked home. As I was walking home with my friend I saw a Mr. softies truck. I had wanted to walk my usual way so I could get Starbucks but she didn't want to so when I saw the truck I conceded. I didn't feel like Ice cream so I bought a milkshake. It was overpriced, full of calories and not that good so I wasn't feeling especially good when I got home. I come home, my new keys have trouble opening the lock and the dogs leash is broken. At least I got a new skirt in the mail.

Bored

Despite the no school I find myself unhappy. I have nothing I can do today. I don't want to get in the way of the cleaning lady so I cant organize, Reading wold depress me this early in the morning. I guess I could watch movie but I don't want to. I can't bake because I don't have money. Maybe after I've finished reading posts I'll go window shopping. But now I'm not sure where. Not gap, strawberry or laila rowe. maybe I'll just read and then watch a movie. *Sigh* I dunno, for now I'll just go on the computer.

hair


I must explain one of my biggest pet peeves because on a lot of blogs I follow curls have been coming up (how to recreate them , how much people want them etc). I was born with thick, frizzy and nearly uncontrollable curly hair. My hair will only take serums, no gel or hairspray works well. What happens is my hair loses its shape while remaining crunchy from the product. I can only use scrunchies (though after a while even those break). Plus, I've got enough volume for 20 people. I must admit that sometimes its nice, when I let my hair loose(which can only be done after washing it) it looks perfect. Than of course I have to put it back because its annoying me. Also, if I touch it when its wet, it goes crazy and frizzes. If I blow dry it after washing it, I look like a poodle. On my moms side of the family they have straight, flat hair (easy to style in my opinion). They hate that it wont hold volume and wish they had curls. *sigh* Guess you always want what you don't have. I also hate when magazines have how to give your hair more texture. As if I don't have enough! I've had my hair straightened many times and braided and given wavy texture (Mostly at a wonderful salon). I plan to show my camp friends what my hair looks like straight( long, flat and shiny) so after my beach party I'll straighten it again. After many trials I have an almost perfect hair routine. I trust my hair to Garnier Fructis and Herbal Essences, truly wonderful! Sorry to people who want curly hair, people like me probably annoy you. Promise next post will have tons of pics and happier comments!
(p.s. my hairs not that bad, just annoying when getting ready)

Bye!
