World Domination Finals Status: Two down, one to go. It's a take-home essay/personal reflection for CompLit, and is supposed to be written in a two hour time period and then turned in by e-mail. Had planned to do it last night, but Latin left me drained.
The thing about this time of year is that... I have an hard time thinking of things to get other people, but I keep thinking of things I want for myself. Only the things I think of are inevitably things that I really need to get myself, because it's stuff where I should be there when it's bought. Like a cute jacket that actually fits me, since a number of my jackets are ones that I got back in middle and high school. They still fit me and are in good condition... but they aren't really jackets that I can wear when I want to look nice. Or at least kind-of nice. Because they're meant for thirteen through seventeen year olds, and like it or not, I'm twenty-three. And there's something seriously wrong when I have to borrow jackets from the 50+ year old AP in order to look nice. If for no other reason than that her shoulders are wider and her arms are longer, so her stuff doesn't quite fit me.
Soooo... for my own use, Mandy's List of Stuff to Get for Herself this Holiday Season:
- at least one cute, short jacket
- preferably tan or brown or something
- not denim, unless it's not blue, since I am against wearing jean jackets with jeans
- some kind of dark pink lip gloss that actually looks good on me got a jacket from Jean! :D
- (maybe) some kind of cover up that actually works with my skin color
- awesome, brilliant, opaque eye shadow!! hoping I find it in the following colors:
- a number of CDs by various artists that I have all listed out on a scrap of paper in my wallet but don't want to bother getting out right now - these are all singers/bands that I have one, two songs by on Falstaff, having received them from different people/sources, and would like to check out other stuff by the same people before definitely saying I want anything
There's probably other stuff too, but I can't think of it right now :D
