I Am A Make Up Nightmare

Today, my little sister was convinced that she could teach me how to put on make up, since it is highly essential that I look good for my work's Christmas party coming up on Saturday. Oh was she sooooooo wrong. The foundation and blush was easy enough to apply, despite the fact that it was quite a shade too pale so to make me look like a vampire from Twilight than it's real purpose as a skin tone refiner. Then came the eyeliner. "Why do you flicker your eyelids so much. It's not that hard to apply eyeliner". Unbeknown to by sister, I do not find having something potentially being able to poke out my eye, highly appealing. Oh but did I mention the eyelash curler????? My eyelashes are so short that no matter how much I jammed that eyelash curler into my eye socket, on advice from my lovely sis, it still didn't manage to catch any eyelashes, let alone get them to curl. The fake lashes didn't look too bad though, after having to take them off and re-glue them five or six times. After an hour, what a transformation. I went from looking like the good girl next door to trashy heroin addict.
Moral of the story? I should stay clear of make-up. Period.

I'm Walking Away

Yep as Craig David so eloquently sings in that smooth voice of his, I'm walking away from the troubles in my life.

Tired of my boss' husband voice telling me what to do at work - Yep walked away from that

Tired of my fiance making stupid unfunny jokes when I'm trying to be serious - Ignored that completely

Tired of dealing with my fiance's laziness and excuses to match - Ok that did get on my nerves

Tired of my fiance ditching me for a smoke - Well that certainly got on my nerves a bit more

Tired of dealing with my fiance in general today - Adios! Hence I walked away. More specifically I got in my car, drove 5 min home and spent the rest of my night watching Border Security which was recorded the previous night. Ah....I love that show.

I wonder how long I can actually go on doing this though? It has occurred to me that eventually I am going to spend most of my time with my fiance, let me rephrase that, ....FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE with him, so this could be a problem. I better come up with a hobby real soon to get me out of the house.
My cousin wished me marital bliss. I'm one step ahead already and organising escape routes. I sound so horrible. Hmmmm....separate tvs so I can watch my favourite shows on one and he can watch boring news on the other. I see light at the end of the tunnel. Gonna love married life.
