hmm
I guess i haven't updated in a few. Well, finals have started and between studying and everyone packing, its really hectic around here. i don't want to leave, but i do. it's really confusing. I know that everyone is sad, but we just all have to remember that we'll be back in only a few months. It's not like we're never gonna come back again. We have to save those thoughts for another three years. What i think is freaking everyone out is that we've all gone through our first year in college. we are a quarter of the way through. hehe, i bet none of us have accepted yet that we are college students.
But anyways, i found something i thought would make everyone smile and forget, at least for a few, that we are leaving.
Just a friendly reminder, it's that time of the year again.
Please raise your big toes and repeat after me:
As a member of the Faux Pas Sisterhood, I pledge to follow The Rules when I
wear sandals and other open-toe shoes:
I promise to always wear sandals that fit. My toes will not hang over and
touch the ground, nor will my heels spill over the backs. And the sides and
tops of my feet will not pudge out between the straps.
I will go polish-free or vow to keep the polish fresh, intact, and
hip-free. I will not cheat and just touch up my big toe.
I will sand down any mounds of skin before they turn hard and yellow.
I will shave the hairs off my big toe.
I won't wear pantyhose even if my misinformed girlfriend, coworker, mother,
sister tells me the toe seam really will stay under my toes if I tuck it
there.
If a strap breaks, I won't duct-tape, pin, glue or tuck it back into place
hoping it will stay put. I will get my shoe fixed or toss it.
I will not live in corn denial; rather I will lean on my good friend Dr.
Scholl's if my feet need him.
I will resist the urge to buy jelly shoes at Payless for the low, low price
of $4.99 even if my feet are small enough to fit into the kids' sizes. This
is out of concern for my safety, and the safety of others. No one can walk
properly when standing in a pool of sweat and I would hate to take someone
down with me as I fall and break my ankle.
I will take my toe ring off toward the end of the day if my toes swell and
begin to look like Vienna sausages.
I will be brutally honest with my girlfriend/sister/coworker when she asks
me if her feet are too ugly to wear sandals. Someone has to tell her that
her toes look like they've been dragged behind her car on the way to work
and no sandal in the world is going to make her feet look good.
I will promise if I wear flip flops, that I will ensure they actually flip
and flop, making the correct noise while walking and I will swear NOT to
slide or drag my feet while wearing them.
I will promise to go my local beauty school at least once per season and
have a real pedicure (they are about $15 and worth EVERY penny). I say
spend another $15.00 and get an even better one.
I will promise to throw away any white/off-white sandals that show signs of
wear...nothing is tackier than dirty white sandals...
For all our sakes, please don't keep this to yourself - pass it on to other
Sisters.
May God Bless your Soles as well as your Soul!
Hope you are all well and ready for summer!

It's a dangerous business going out your door. You step onto the road, and
if you don't keep your feet, there's no knowing where you might be swept
off to...
