Everyone is familiar with those crazy bad hair days. The days where you just wake up to a nest of hot mess. You shower, wash and condition your hair. You dry and try to style it, but nothing. Nothing you do to it seems to make it look any better. Well, I'd take a bad hair day over a bad face day any day of the week, thank you very much!
Bad face day? What's that you ask....well it's simply those days that you wake up and look in the mirror and startle yourself, then groan.Yesterday, I had a bad face day.
I'm pretty confident in my make up skills, I enjoy having fun with make up, using pretty eyeshadows and glosses. But no amount of make up could do anything for my face that day. I had two little, lovely visitors on my nose and dark circles under my eyes. I put on my make up for the day and found that my face still didn't look right :(. So I wiped it off and started again....and again, and again...oh ya, and again. It took a great deal of self control to not throw my foundation across the room. Oh and did I mention I used three different kinds of make up...ya, three. Nothing I did seemed to make my face look any better. I felt like I was going crazy....and maybe I was. The only reason I stopped was that it was going to make me late for work. Then you leave the house, self conscious about your face for the rest of the day...convinced that everyone is noticing each, obvious to you, blemish. You're sure they are all commenting about how much make up you've caked on to hide everything....you're sure they care. Then you realize how self indulgent and vaguely narcissistic it is of you to think that anyone cares a smidgen about your face, so now you're bummed that you were so self involved....and the sky starts falling all around you and the beginning of the end spirals all around you!!!! Dum dum dummmm!
This is good writing, anak. Pretty kewl!
