Plowing through the week! I made it!

Hi! This week has been exhausting, but I survived! I increased my work out to 4 miles (2 running, two power walking up-hill), and added 10 minutes of yoga. I was also a little depressed over finding out via Facebook that my sister planned a family reunion in Hawaii that I wasn't invited to, but I decided not to think about it too much. 

  I leave for New York in a few days and I still have a million things I need to do before I go. I made a long list in my schedule book. I'll start tackling the tasks tomorrow. Tomorrow I'll also be giving myself a hair conditioning treatment! My hair has been getting a lot better since I stopped using all these heating products. Sometimes, I get tempted to Chemically straighten my hair, but then I remember how damaging it is...

 

I also narrowed my make-up kit to five simple items! =D I'm going to go with more simple make up this time around. No fake lashes or bold colors. When M-san was here, I wore no make up at all. I felt so naked, but I liked how natural I looked in the pictures. I'm going to try to keep that look with my make up now. I'll keep the flashy make up for the club scene.

 

There is also a wig in my closet I need to re-style for days I don't feel like brushing my hair. Haha. Oh Jesus, am I getting that lazy? No! If Lolita girls can wear wigs when they want, so can I, damn it. 

I keep getting calls from someone in Puerto Rico. I don't know who they are but every time I answer, they say "Ei ma, que hace?" Hey girl, what'cha doing? I have a few guy friends still in Puerto Rico, but he doesn't sound like any of them, and I figured that after a week of creeping me out, they'd finally confess and laugh at me for freaking out.  I thought about blocking the number but it's almost 6 dollars a month to keep that one number blocked. That's $72.00 a year on someone I don't know...

That's money I have but don't want to spend at the moment. I just finished paying $300.00 at an evaluation center to get my transcripts from フェリス女学院, Rosemont and UAS combined. I should have done this a long time ago. I was two courses shy of completing a degree at フェリス女学院. I was one course shy of finishing a degree at Rosemont. Courses I took at UAS had been for fun so I never expected credit for them, but it turns out I can. Now that the three have been combined... catch this....if I take only two more courses, I can end up with two different Degrees. I guess the $300 was worth it.  I need to e-mail Ferris and arrange to take those two courses.  Even with a degree though, I don't know if I'll look for a different job once I go back. I kind of liked working at the restaurant I was at before. The pay was decent and my co-workers were tremendously kind. I'll call Kanae once I get back from NY and see what my chances are of going back to work there. Until then, I should have fun and practice my "いっらしゃいませ～”'s~!

I use moroccan oil in my hair because I straighten mine all the time, and it actually keeps my hair feeling really nice. I'd love to chemically straighten my hair too but I'm terrified of anything that will really damage my hair because it has taken me so many years to get it long so I don't want to do anything to lose it.

I totally want a wig, for no reason other than just because I want one. My mum used to wear wigs in the 70s lol.

That random call is so weird. They say that same thing every time? Creepy.

I'm so looking forward to hearing all about New York and seeing your pictures! I hope you have a blast.

Too sad about the family reunion :(

Yeah, I'm super busy, too! Work is crazy, lots of overtime. I'm exhausted and still no day off ahead of me. *sigh*

Hope you'll enjoy New York and post some photos, too! ^-^

You have to pay to block someone? That is ridiculous. You could add the number to your phone and list it as "Do not answer."

Have a fabulous time in New York!

That sucks about your sister. :( And creeper guy is creepy, wtf.

On another note; I've always wanted to go to New York! I hope you have a great trip. :)

Ooh so you are thinking of coming back here to Japan for school and work? I would love to see you when you come back here ^^

I've actually gotten into makeup myself recently though I don't use it everyday. I love eyeshadow.
