Appropriate?

Sun, 15 Nov 2009 01:07:42 GMT

I once asked someone if she thought winking at people was appropriate.
Her response: save it for marriage.

It's an interesting gesture. I think the message it conveys depends on who's
receiving it. I find it cute. I think it's flirtatious.

In class today, we were discussing the show Oprah broadcasted yesterday. It was about
a woman who was attacked by a chimp. It's a tragic story really.

She unveiled her face for the first time publicly yesterday.

If you don't have this in your possession, GO GET IT NOW!
I use petroleum jelly in so many different ways. I think it rubbed off
from my mom. She would use this especially in the winter to soothe her
chapped skin. It's cheap and convenient since you can get it about anywhere.
I use this almost every night to coat my eyelashes and brows. It sounds really
weird but since those areas don't really get any love, I nourish them with Vaseline.

If there's only one thing you get from my series, it should be this jar.

I keep it crisp(?) with Ban's Vanilla Twist deodorant. It doesn't have that 'fresh' smell
but it does have a delicious scent. I'm comfortable wearing this black shoulder-less shirts.
You just have to be careful when applying the product though. I received mines for free, and
it has the special edition packaging like the one above. It's easy to spot with the shiny
and lime-green color. If you want to try something new, check it out!

SIDE NOTE: This is a new series of my holy grail items I use all the time.

It's undeniable
That we should be together
It's unbelievable
How I used to say that I'd fall never
The basis is need to know
If you don't know just how I feel
Then let me show you now that I'm for real
If all things in time
Time will reveal
Yeah...

Chorus:
One - you're like a dream come true
Two - just wanna be with you
Three - Girl it's plain to see
That you're the only one for me
Four - repeat steps one through three
Five - make you fall in love with me
If ever I believe my work is done
Then I'll start back at one...yeah...

So Incredible
The way things work themselves out
And all emotional
Once you know what it's all about, babe
And undesirable
For us to be apart
Never would of made it very far
Cause you know you got the keys to my heart

(Chorus)
One - you're like a dream come true
Two - just wanna be with you
Three - Girl it's plain to see
That you're the only one for me
Four - repeat steps one through three
Five - make you fall in love with me
If ever I believe my work is done
Then I'll start back at one...

Say farewell to the dark of night
I see the coming of the sun
I feel like a little child
Whose life has just begun
You came and breathed new life
Into this lonely heart of mine
You threw out the life line
Just in the nick of time...

(Chorus)
One - you're like a dream come true
Two - just wanna be with you
Three - Girl it's plain to see
That you're the only one for me
Four - repeat steps one through three
Five - make you fall in love with me
If ever I believe my work is done
Then I'll start back at one...

I just freaked.

I was looking for a something that fell behind my bookshelf. So...I reach my hand
behind and felt something furry. I freaked and jerked my hand outta there in a
nanosecond. After composing myself, I moved somethings and found it was my
blush makeup brush. This always happens to me.

I NEED (or really desperately want) this!
< $168.00
I would change a few things to make it more suitable.
Not too crazy with the colorful patches. I'm thinking more like navy
strips with a little gold threading through it. Maybe that's not even what
I want. I don't know. I just love how quirky it looks!

p.s. I'm a small or medium if you wanted to give me gift for my awesomely
blogging. You know you want to! :)

Wet Seal's Sale

Since Halloween is over, they're having a clearance to haul all that stuff out.
You can buy the things this year for next year. I do that all the time. (call me thrifty!)
I think the shadow stripe tights would look great on anyone.
