Three day weekend...

My biggest accomplishment of this lovely three day weekend? Getting my cousin hooked on the OC and watching all of season one, ha. It is weird how entirely different people can be. While watching the OC I would notice someone's hair, makeup, lack of eyebrows being even (being obsessed with eyebrows you notice that kind of thing) and my cousin said to me, "How did you even notice something like that?!" And I responded, "I don't know, those are just the first things I notice." I thought most girls noticed things like that but I guess I am wrong.



Also, not all girls share my love of makeup. Which shocks me. One of the reasons I'm happy to not be male is the fact girls can wear makeup. Seeing a picture and copying the makeup makes me so happy. So, I spent one day watching the OC/eating pizza completely makeup-less. So the next day when we decided to go to a party, I decided to go all out and do a green smoky eye with black eyeliner to make a more cat-eye look. I don't know what it is, but I feel I look deathly ill when I go more than a day without makeup on which makes me then really go all out the next time I put it on. My cousin tells me she has decided to put on eyeshadow which is something she never does. She asks me if brown is a color that is okay to use. I thought that was common knowledge. Before we leave, she asks me to make sure her eyeshadow is okay. She said "I don't know what I'd do without you... I just don't get this stuff." Again, I don't know why I'm so into makeup and other girls aren't. I couldn't even tell you the point in my life which I decided I loved makeup. But it happened and now I feel naked going out in public with nothing on. I don't see myself being one of those women who when I get married/have children completely let go of myself and stop caring about my outward appearance. Maybe I'm just a shallow person and shouldn't care so much about superficial stuff like this. But I do, it's who I am. And who wants me to spend a day teaching her how to do makeup? My cousin, I mean I think most girls want to be able to do their makeup well. I just found it interesting.

And since we're on the topic of makeup... I am just waiting for the occassion to arise where I can wear teal eyeshadow. Hopefully a party will happen sooner than later and I can do that. It sucks when no one else is as into makeup, because when you really go all out and no one else does, you really do stand out. But what's wrong with that?
