Fact: Morning. Routines.

writing this entry in hopes I will remember how vain I was at sweet sixteen. (:
JUST KIDDING.
But yes, this is my beauty routine + secrets ; ) every morning.
enjoy!



1. WAKE UP.

except it's not always sunshine and daises when I wake up.

in fact, it's more like this.

My cell phone alarum wakes me up at 7:15.
I immediately hit SNOOZE and collapse back on the bed.
My last conscious thought before i pass out is
'Why is it going to wake em up NINE minutes later..? ZZZZZZ'

I usually drag myself up around 7:35 although today I woke up at 8. = =
I peel back covers, turn on lights and go to the bathroom.
and then the magic starts.

2. MAKEUP

I run to the bathroom, trip over the bathmat in the process and turn on the lights.

Plug my hair straightener in and apply my makeup while it's heating up.
I used to have wavy hair last year.
I'd just put it in a bun and take it out then go to school.
but for this year, I'm going all straight. (:
I run the hot iron over my kinky waves and smooth it over and over until it's stick straight.
I must remember to get my back too, or my work will be ruined over the course of the day!

If I don't do my hair, I wake up with something like this.

I really wish I were kidding.


My makeup goes like this:
foundation, liquid eyeliner, mascara and some lip balm.

Very simple, probably missing the beauty ESSENTIALS like lipstick, blush and pencil eyeliner.
but I never really got the hang of those thing and usually end up looking like Dolly Parton's sidekick.

3. GET DRESSED

Leaving the iron on just in case I need to re-do my hair, I rush back to my warm bedroom.
oh right, I still need to snap pics of my room.
I'll do that later...

ANYWAYS!
I look through my VAST and CLEAN wardrobe for something decent to wear..
^_^

It just occurred to me that I really need a floor length mirror.
cos how do I know my outfits coordinate?
and what do my shoes look like?
I had the wavy one from IKEA but I left it at my grandparent's house.
and where would I put it?!

I usually take between 5-15 mins deciding what to wear.
I don't come to school looking like this with no thought you know!
I never wear the same outfit twice in a week and different earrings every day. ;3

hard to decide what to wear each morning!
this is my method:
LOOK OUTSIDE THE WINDOW.
If it's raining, I wear my boots or sneakers.
Sunny? :D flats or flip flops or wedges.
cloudyy...? =/ well I guess whatever will do.

cos as soon as I know what shoes to wear, I'll know what pants to put on.
For boots, it must by my skinny jeans or the other pair I can fold easily.
I can't wear my AH jeans with converse cos they're too short..
and so on.
Also, depending on weather I can decide whether or not to wear shorts or skirts (with or w/o tights).

tops is easy I guess.
out of all the clothing i have, I have the most shirts.
although most of it is tank tops. =/
and then I pick a random sweatshirt to cover my arms

For my jewelry, I try to balance out my outfit.
if it's too BLAH, I wear more classy and shiny earrings/necklaces.
I recently discovered I HATE bracelets.
too distracting to play with and I drag it all over my table when I write.
HORRIBLE.



so remember, BALANCE IS THE KEY! =3


4. STOCK SCHOOL BAG

I put all my pink folders/makeup bag/pencil case into my various book bags.
ROXY bag ATM is

kind of like this. It's plaid but it's green with pockets.
I can never find pics of my bag. :K
I love their bags, would never carry anything else.

forgot to mention, my mom has this one.

It's okay but it's WATERPROOF and kind of bulging out.


I pack my lunch/what ever else I need into it.
I never have room for textbooks but even still, my bag weighs around 20 pounds. =/


5. OUTDOOR ARTICLES

I put on my TNA jacket, wear my chosen shoes for the day and put my key in my pocket.
Umbrella may be necessary as I live in vancouver. ):

I wish I had this umbrella.

It is too epic for words.
