i cant commit!

aug12-12

I am going through a hair crisis!!
I had decided a while back that I was going to grow out my bangs for the first time since I was 17.

I was doing pretty good with resisting the urge of grabbing the scissors and trimming, that is, until today.
I am really tempted today, reallllllllly tempted.
I think that if i got a proper hair cut, it might help???

I hope I can push through it. I am feeling so weird with having so much of my face exposed at all times. I miss hiding behind my bangs!

Left Eyebrow Raised, Right Eyebrow Raised



You may not know, but I am growing out my bangs for the first time since 10th grade, almost 13 years ago!

This is raising a bunch of issues for me. I am not used to having ALL of my face exposed. My forehead and eyebrows are getting the attention they have been lacking for the past 13 years.
When I was in my teens, I asked my sister, then in high school, to 'do my eyebrows' for the first time. It was a disaster. They were super thin and no where near symmetrical.
The only good thing to come out of it was when they grew back in. Somehow, I was able to save them, but I don't even know how I did.
I used to get at least one girl comment about how much they loved my eyebrows every time I went out. I have since stopped paying attention to my eyebrows but it's time to change that.

I have been experimenting a bit but am still looking for something better and easier. I thought I'd never find anything until I received an email this morning and go so excited! I normally don't bother watching make up videos but this one was so relevant to my needs right now!

The product is called The Beauty Express brow kit by Anastasia of Beverly Hills. I will be doing a review of this product in the near future, so stay tuned!

Pre Tokyo

I'm still adjusting from my trip.
It's not easy to adjust from a 13 hour time difference.
We've been getting up at 1 am and going to bed at about 2-3pm for the past few days.
Will my sleep schedule ever get back to normal????

I loved Tokyo soooooo much and it was life changing, so I am referring to my life now as pre and post Tokyo.

My laptop broke the day after I got back, so luckily I have a backup and my hard drive wasnt affected.

These are some photos I took before I left. I dont even recognize this person because my taste changes so frequently.

JAPAN!!



I am in Japan!
This is my second week here in Tokyo.
I'm actually staying in Tokyo Bay.

I was able to check out Harajuku a few times, but most importantly on a Sunday.
Here are the rock n roll dancers in Yoyogi Park.



I'm heading out to another toy store, on the hunt for a certain character.
I was able to get some Little My stuff at Kiddy Land.

There is so much I've experienced, including a few earthquakes!

Tokyo is an amazing city and I cant wait to come back!
