xxxxxxxxmas

Merry Christmas.
Also update on hair: I chopped it.
I am once again a flowerboy.

Also lately Thrift Shop - Macklemore & Ryan Lewis ft. Wanz has been my jam.
I don't even know.

to cut or not to cut

that is, hair.
But before I get started on ignoring my bio gr and writing this absurdly unnecessary post, let me wish all of you a very merry Christmas (Eve).
Went shopping at Valley Fair today (mostly to buy Christmas presents for famiry) but also got the most beautiful sweater I have seen in many days. (From Forever21, where else?)
Also a random top from Charlotte Russe bc Cynthia gave me a ten dolla gift card and well I'm never going to shop there anyways so might as well use it.

cheap forever21 jewelry, as always

i guess this shirt was originally supposed to be a crop top but it was XL and even so it was still a crop top??? so on bigger people it's like a bra or something?? ?? / ??? ?//? but whatever. stripey.

do you see this goodness

up-close for those of you that are blind

idk if you can see but it's actually grADIENT TO A BEAUTIFUL PASTEL BLUE that's right not only does it have perfect beautiful shoulder spikes it's pakking GRADIENT and thick and soft and only $22.80 <3 <3 <3

Also got my mother and sister presents (last minute shopping woo) and spent an inordinate amount of time in a store called Tokyo Japanese Lifestyle (overload on Asian goodies!) and Superdry, an extremely shockingly overpriced Japanese store selling extremely overpriced T-shirts, thick wooly cardigans&sweaters,  and "windcheaters".
Damn. Not even windbreakers.

Anyways, hair.
Now it's at an awkward jaw-sweeping length and it is once again time to ponder the question.
To cut or not to cut.
But first let's go on a journey traveling back in time documenting all of my dubious and rather poor hair choices from before.

I guess the starting point would be when my hair was black and I had side bangs and it was of medium length + layered.

this was my chlorine hair under like really white lighting + i think changed some colors in photoshop

Then I got peek-a-boo highlights and dyed the bottom half of like half of my hair.

then I guess I thought it would be nice to have front bangs? or whatever they're called

I kind of miss this hair era.
so then around February or early March of this year I decided no I'm going to chop it all off right before I left with my choir for Texas so I went to the Asian hair salon near Marina Foods

well it become pretty much jaw/neck length and short and everyone said I looked cute and well I wasn't cute before ok

then I got the crazy idea to go tangerine

Was also cutting my own hair/experimenting with stuff at this point

then back2black

Hair grew out quite a bit

Until finally without styling, it grew out to this length

it stayed this awkward length until frendz (cough Trisha cough) decided to pester me about it and told me to chop it so I cut it myself

then off to Massachusetts loool dyed my bangs ombre blonde to red

came back, then back2black for a second time

so lately on and off it's been growing and I've been trimming it so like flowerboy hair

also black hair dye fading lol

except I grew my hair out bc you can't really do anything with flowerboy hair on special occasions
so my hair was a pretty awk length for both fashion show and winter ball
today it is like this

So.............. to cut or not to cut? D:

winter ball

Winter ball was nice.

(left hand bleeding pus so keeping this short, sweet, and executed with the least amount of pain possible.)

Went to Trisha's house after dentist appointment at like 4:15 and chilled. Started doing makeup at like 5 after Trisha straightened my unruly awkward length grown out flowerboy cut with massive amounts of anti-heat spray lolll.

Followed bubzbeauty's (too bad Louisa couldn't go, get well soon Louisa!!!) tutorial for smudged eyeliner look and thought it turned out pretty well^^

tons of bb cream, black pencil liner, and pale white eyeshadow later.... pc: rachel's samsung
galaxy s3

Also ended up doing Kerrie's makeup too, with tips from Rachel^^ Trisha curled both hers and Kerrie's hair and wow, makes me want really long hair too :c

Got there a little late bc we were eating Trisha's food haha. Our dates ended up waiting for us xP

(Trisha w/ Howard, Kerrie w/ Jonathan Lu)

now pics. (mostly from Trisha's iPhone)

met Whitney and her date there too! ended up spending more time lining up for pictures than actual dancing, haha.

took two photobooth pics with just me and Bobby, and the first time I messed up the first pic by moving before the camera took the photo omq so I cut out the best half of both strips >.>

I think my hair looks good in the last pic

alright bye my mom wants me to write a "Christmas letter" w h y

also she doesn't know I got injured lul

crying bc why

Today was minimum day bc of last day before break but like an idiot I tripped and fell, scraping both my hands [I'm using my right hand to type this post out painfully (both literally and metaphorically) slowly.] so now it's just stinging pretty bad and there's gravel in the large scrape on the heel of my left palm and yes I should be washing it out but it hurts like a motherpakker so I just covered it liberally with Neosporin and a new bandage.

And I'll wash it out later with lots of warm water but if I can't do that I'll go buy a pakking tube of lidocaine gel (what would I do without you, Yahoo answers)

Anyways, have an outfit post. 

grey coat from forever21, navy knit cardigan from forever21, light blue buttondown from hollister, patterned dress from forever21

It was originally a dress I just layered everything on top and tied a 90's knot and people complimented me on my "cute skirt" (Mr. Saldana, among others LOL)

trust me they look innocent all cleaned up but they sting like no other

cross earrings from forever21

I'm actually going to cry bc of all days why today I have winter ball in five hours ugh PAIN WHY
Lord have mercy on my soul
