'I laugh in the face of danger! Then I... hide until it goes away.'
Males, warning that the following will probably not be of any interest to you.
I officially declare my hatred for Veet ready-to-use waxing strips. They're a trial in patience and frustration. I can deal with the pain, but the annoyance of 'oh, it didn't quite remove every hair' over and over again is so frustrating!! There's only so many times you can stare at your leg to find a missed hair and remove it with tweezers, before you think 'what am I doing?!'
Girls - I'm done with shaving, I'm too poor to get a salon wax, self-waxing takes too bloody long. I considered epilating, and saw one in Boots today 'on sale' for the lovely sum of £66 -_-
What hair removal products do you use that actually work and mean that you get a break from the process for at least a short time? I want some recommendations and tips. (I'm only talking about legs at the moment fyi. Razor is fine for underarms, and depilatory cream is what I think works best for bikini area).
And no answers about no hair removal at all. Body hair irritates me and it has to be erased!
ANYWAY
Tonight was fun. Steph, Dave and I went to a place called Santorini's on Cowley Road. We opted not to have mains, but lots of mezedes dishes instead. Meatballs, little sausages, potatoes, stuffed grape leaves, shrimp, squid, stuffed peppers, followed by baklava to share. So good.
And Steph and I had a couple of martini's which were so well done. And there was live music throughout the meal, which was actually pretty good and made for a pleasant atmosphere.
We all shared looks of alarm when the waiters began dancing around, and asked for the bill. My parents and I used to often go to a Greek restaurant every few weeks, and I'd always panic at the idea of someone trying to make me dance and ask if we could go home... D:
Afterwards, we headed down to Cafe Coco and had a few cocktails, before going home. Relaxing and fun : )
I've begun rewatching Buffy....and it's so wonderfully nostalgic. Although I've seen Amy's mother, the psychotic cheerleader, and the preying mantis/biology teacher a million times,etc, it's so much fun to rewatch...
So here come some quotes to annoy you :P
Willow: Well... when I'm with a boy I like, it's hard for me to say anything cool, or, or witty. Or at all. I - I can usually make a few vowel sounds, and then I have to go away.
Buffy: It's not that bad.
Willow: I think boys are more interested in a girl who can talk.
Buffy: You really haven't been dating lately.
Giles: You have no idea where they took Jesse?
Buffy: I looked around, but soon as they got clear of the graveyard, they could have just, voom!
Xander: They can fly?
Buffy: ....they can drive.
Xander: We just saw the zebras mating. Thank you, very exciting!
Willow: It was like the Heimlich... with stripes!
Giles: Testosterone is a great equalizer, it turns all men into morons.
Xander: I know you have feelings for this guy, but it's not like you're in love with him, right? [Buffy looks away] You’re in love with a vampire?! What are you, outta your mind?
Cordelia: What?!?
Xander: [to Cordelia] Not 'vampire' ... [to Buffy] How could you love an umpire? Everyone hates 'em!
And now I may or may not need to get up early...! So, goodnight~
