Pinked up

This is not astronomical by any stretch. But I'm kind of lazy. Okay fine. Totally lazy. As far as manicures go, this means I basically paint one hand and if we are talking pedicures, 6 of my toe nails. So giving my self a (FULL!) manure, is actually a big deal!

Remember last year when I said from then on I would only by Essie? Well I also said I probably would not be getting much nail polish. And I was totally right! This is my first bottle since 2011. I went for the Essie again. This color also happens to match every accessory in my room. Which proves I have a problem. And that problem is named Barbie Pink.

As far as my facial is concerned, it went okay. I used some facial thing Elise gave me. You plaster it on, then let it become plaster of sorts. After a while, you peel it off and (supposedly) have luscious and soft skin. That only happens if you can actually peel it off. And if you don't, friends will think your skin is peeling. Seriously, 3 days later I still had the stuff on.

Xoxo, Kryn

Festivus!

I have not posted about a celebration in a really long time....oops. Anyway, hope you were festive because today was Festivus day! I assume Festivus includes general festive things such as, drinking eggnog, listening to Christmas music, wrapping presents, and so on. I decided to look up Festivus in the dictionary, because I was somewhat confused about the meaning. Turns out, there is no meaning because Festivus is not a word! So we have creative liberty today!

Here are some festive things I did:
  • I painted my nails red.
  • Went Christmas shopping
  • Tried on my Eve outfit.
  • Watched a Video on the making of the Michael Buble Christmas Album.
  • Wrapped presents
Here's my favorite. It does not exactly shout Festivus.
  • Wrote a letter in a red pen.

The last one is sort of lame...but since I have some liberty today, the red pen is the most Festivus thing around!

Sincerely,
Red = Festivus.

Pink is for awesome people

I am so thrilled with today's holiday. National Pink Day. Pink has been my favorite color for as long as I can remember. It's just plain adorable. But Pink really is for Awesome people. It takes talent to make pink work. I naturally gravitate toward pink. My Vera? Pink. My cardigan? Pink. Sophie's dog tag? Pink. My comforter? Pink (Here any way). While we are talking about colors, we've decided to name this house "Haricotvert" Which is a type of green bean. Houses really should have names. And that was so fitting since this house is a very nice but un liked shade of green. But we should not be talking about green on such a wonderful day. Today is about pink. And so it shall be.

In Honor of National Pink Day, I decided to go and get some Essie nail polish. I probably would have gone anyway. The reason I wanted Essie is because they have about a million shades of pink. And that's just what I like. And wanted. I was leaning towards a more coral pink, but then I was reminded I should go with a more true pink. Powder pink it is. I think Kate Beard has this same color. I am so pleased. Kate Beard has good taste.Absolutely lovely. I like this color so much. I've decided to buy only Essie from now on. That basically means I wont be buying nail polish very often. $8 doll hairs is a little much. But I had money burning a hole in my pocket. I needed to buy. I get that sensation every so often. Usually it does not work out so well. But today the flame was good. It inspired me.

My day was spent dusting and cleaning and going through my massive stacks of who knows what. I found a poem I'd written long ago. It was hilarious. I have a feeling I was avoiding work when I wrote this poem. Here ya go....

"When I see a daisy, I feel lazy.
I feel like lounging all around,
I feel like laying on the ground.
So whenever I'm lazy,
its because of that stupid Daisy!"

I don't see much poetry in my future. This was a very long time ago. And I have not written a poem since. Thankfully.

I'm off to have a pink Shirley Temple. Please love pink as much I do. You'll be pleasantly surprised.

Sincerely,

Lazy Daisy at Haricotvert

PS: Today I went to a bookstore with mom. She wanted to get me some coloring books.I told her that since I'll be 14 this fall, I don't need any. Last time I checked, 8th graders don't don't spend their days coloring. She did not really want to hear that. I decided to go look for Mein Kamf instead. The End.
