Keeping up Appearances.

So, I do wonder sometimes why we girls go through so much just to look good.
I mean, take today for instance, I woke up, had a shower, shaved, exfoliated and washed my hair... I then moisturized all over, dried and straightened my hair. Now comes the make up, and then add the nail polish, and I think I'm ready. I mean, wow, that's an hour and half of my day gone. And what am I doing today? Sitting inside.

Why do we care so much about our appearance?
Well, I blame the media, showing us these pictures of super skinny, tanned and just all over amazing goddesses of celebrities. Who, of course, have people who dress them, hair stylists, personal trainers.. and basically who don't have to lift up a finger.

And I also blame Summer... Don't get me wrong.. I love summer!!! But now the suns out I actually have to start caring about what my legs look like! Damn.

So I can complain all I want about how the media shows a bad representation of women, how we should just be happy as we are and not care what people think... but I still fall sucker to vanity, and go through everything to try and look like the women in the glossy magazines... and one day I will, if it's the last thing I do!

Oh vanity, how you plague the world! :)

It's been a while.

Don't get me wrong, I do love writing on here. It's just I feel like I have nothing to say to the world. Tad sad, I know. Hmm, my life recently...

Well I'm home for Easter. Go back to uni in 6 days. Not looking forward to it, particularly as I have a lot of work that needs to be in, and haven't put much effort into starting it yet. Am looking forward to seeing everyone I've missed though. I don't know what it's going to be like in the Summer, I'm going to miss everyone too much.

Since applying to Heathrow Airport, I now have a job over the summer, which is excellent, as I need all the money I can get. And it's not in crappy retail, even bigger bonus. However, it does mean I have to leave university early as I start in June. Doesn't really matter as all the assignments will be finished, just sucks leaving before everyone else.

I now have my nose and tragus pierced. Hurt like hell, but I like. Now have to keep cleaning them, as I don't really fancy getting an infection, especially on my face.

I have rediscovered Twitter, which I am now addicted too. Add me if you wish. lottiemac1990

And oh, yes. Shopping in Oxford Street on Wed. Ahh, the highlight of my holidays.

Much love. X

Oh, and the weather forecast during the past few days has been sun, sun, sun, which puts a great big smile on my face.
