Do people actually enjoy formal events? If so why?
My most exciting news is that Alex and I are going to the Rehab charity ball this comming Saturday. I feel rediculously girly worrying about my hair, shoes and dress. I actually decided not to buy a dress, so far I have been lent two different ones, just got them today, so I still have to try them on. I think that I may even make a hair appointment to get my hair done. And i have to go out and buy make up for the event. Going to this thing makes me feel like I am back in high school as the whole class is buzzing about dresses, hair, shoes, dates etc. Seating arrangements were due today and that caused a riducuouls amount of hassel. Given my lack of experiance with this sort of event I may well fall and break an ankle trying to walk on my strappy heals (which I have yet to purchase) and not have to concern myself with any of the overly fake interactions that will occur within the event. I'm making myself see it as self therapy for my social anxiety, hopefully that goes well, as being anxious makes me feel like I am going to be sick on my shoes and if I am in sandals that is akin to being sick on my feet and I just wouldn't be able to deal with that.
Other than the ball I am procrastinating on doing school work, which will bite me in the ass quite soon. Things are pretty much same old same old. But I feel that if I don't do something big and exciting soon that I will perish, so I may look into some sort of spring break trip.
Don't know who the hell I am turing into as my mind is fairly consumed by dresses, hair, make up and spring break.
Some of the old me still remains though as I am contemplating getting my belly button pierced, writing a paper on Rwandan woman refugee returnees (Say that 10 times fast) and spending way too much time in bed.
And now for my random questions for how to be a better girl:
1. what sort of shoes do you wear with a black strappless cocktail dress?
2. Where do you purchase said shoes for reletively cheep?
3. Is the body shop a good place to recieve non judgemental make up help?
4. Do you wear nylons with said cocktail dress? If yes what colour? If no, what do I wear on my legs? (legwarmers?)
5. Where do you buy those stick on bras?
6. Do people actually wear those stick on bras?
7. What sort of underwear is appropriate for the occasion? (something tells me that my cotton jockey's are the wrong answer, even though they are comfortable)
8. Hair...HELP....I'm thinking half pulled back with a nice sparkly yet tastful clip (Which I don't own) and curls, any better suggestions
9. jewlery????
10. Tips on how to swallow?
Thankyou queer friends for your advice and support. If we make it a team effort I am sure that I will be able to pull off something resembling sexy yet tasteful girl for saturday evening.
