Watsons, vanity and the likes
So what have I been up to, you ask? Besides whoring my clothes out all over flea markets, attempting hot yoga and actually signing onto a special promotional 5 week package at true yoga, procrastinating university enrollment of my final semester till the 11th hour, shamelessly ripping music from various sources - exploitation of fast broadband while it lasts!!, drinking just about a gallon of soy milk (with pearls).. I've been having a love affair with Watsons. Yes, Watsons - my personal store indeed. Of course, nothing to the degree of what Woods has chalked up over the past week (men are all scums!!! ugh!) This Watsons thing may well indeed be a phase, though I must admit it has surprised me, along with several others, to varying degrees. Each time I hit town, I spend at least 20 minutes wandering around the store - I am like a child lost in a candy store. I find it surprisingly calming to flick through cosmetic shelves (I'm not a brand whore, so even badly marketed silky girl is enough to satisfy) - I love trying on swatches and blending each shade in my skin, touching everything from primers to ZA's Energy Water. Which I eventually bought. For reasons unknown. After spending a good 15 minutes (at the bare minimum), I'd proceed to look at facial pads and other facial cleansers. The recent Cleaning Express cleansing gel which is supposedly a "huge hit" in Japan entertained me for a good 5 minutes today. It's like breakthrough discovery when you apply said gel on palms, rub and watch as dead skin formulate. Imagine how much dead skin exists without our knowledge! $38 for that cleansing gel must surely go a long way. Today, I bought a curling comb and hair spray. It offends me when people think I have had my hair rebonded. I don't see why anybody would pay to actually look uglier. Well this curling comb device only tangled my hair in a bunch and I doubt the spray actually works. But at least my hair smells fruity and nice now. Great for chompchomp and oil greased hair.
Having said that, I think I'm reaching a phase in my life whereby clothes are of less interest to me now. I used to be big into prints and pop colours, neon flashy stuff and the likes, but I figured upon graduation my entire wardrobe would be replaced with more dull working clothes. It is best to spend my resources on things like fixing my horrific chipped tooth, teeth whitening, soft waves, lasik, eyelash extensions etc.
Vanity at it's best. Hey, we only live once. Don't live it being ugly. Ugly does not exist.
I am seriously considering laser lasik. The very thought of having to undergo a procedure with a blade puts me off, but some clinics offer a laser service at seriously affordable prices! It's a small price to pay for eternal eyesight. It's also EXTREMELY IMPORTANT that I resist the temptation of chopping off my almost-locks so I can go for a digital perm of sorts. Wavy hair is so prettyprettyprets!!
Also, everday I think about whether I would be happier with an iPhone or a blackberry. It is quite the stressful situation.
Now now, if only money grew on trees......... people always say they stumbled upon a $50 note. How come that has never happened to me? Imagine all the things I could buy with $50! I could buy a million boxes of cute fluffy light facial pads from watsons......... and so much more. Seriously, there is so much to buy at Watsons.
What a frivolous post. I should really be applying for advertising temp positions...
