I have a weakness for mascara and color eyeliner. You don't know how much I want it. Make-up looks really good on me, and I know what I need to do to take care of my skin so it doesn't mess it up. But my mom refuses to let me wear it. It's so annoying!! She thinks I'll pile it on like those other girls, but I know when to stop. Seriously. She also thinks it will ruin my skin, but seriously, I know what to do. She also says "girls your age dont need make up!"  WHATEVER. This is the 21st century, man. Whether we need it or not we wear it. I have the money to buy it but what's the point if I can't even wear it. I'm tired of my mom never letting me do what I want to do. I'm not a baby.

Okay, so your watching a movie and all of a sudden your little brother starts crying, or the popcorn you popped is done. You pause the movie. When you come back, your movie is stopped in the most hilarious spot of the movie you have ever seen. Comedy movies and romance movies are the best to do this with. Do it without even looking.

Yes. This is us in our natural habitat.

I was watching Spirited Away, and you know Yubaba? Huuuuuge eyes, right? We paused right in the spot where the enormous baby foot kicks her in the head and her eyes are wiiiiiide open. Best part of the movie!

I was also watching a webvideo and paused in the middle because my sister was talking to me, and when I turned back around her mouth was in the most ridiculous shape. Who knew our mouthes looked so funny when we talk?

So next time your bored, pop in a movie and pause all day long. It's definitely beneficial.

This has always bothered me. Men never have to worry about anything other than their hair (anywhere). Maybe this opinion stems from my hate of having to deal with this every day, but it is true. Men dont have to shave. Men don't have to shower and put on perfum to smell good. Men dont have to put on make-up and do their hair. Men don't have to plan their outfits out ahead so they look cute every day. Men don't have to go on diets to look skinnier to fit in those clothes. 

Now, most of this stuff is optional, but for some reason its become an epidemic. Woman in Africa and such don't do anything and men still love them. But why do men in America feel that we have too do all those things in order to be beautiful? Don't you think that's partially, if not mostly, the reason why we do those things everday? Now, I'm not saying I don't. But that's not the only reason I do it, I do it because I like to see myself look beautiful. For me. When did we let men decide we were beautiful? Men don't do all those things, but we still love them. Why can't that apply to us also?

I'm not saying this goes for every man out there. There are some dream men (rare species) that don't care what we look like, and would see us in sweats and smeared make-up and say "you're beautiful." Cheesy right? But true. And rare.

Have you noticed in movies where the preps with the make-up and the hair and the clothes and the nails have the guys drooling all over them? Don't forget skinniness. Where do you think that came from? And the "nerds" who didn't care what they looked like just threw on some clothes, brushed their hair, and went on with life because it's too short to constantly be worrying about that, the guys hated. That's what it's like in reality too.

While I'm on the subject, weight plays a big factor too. Guys never like heavy girls, which is wrong. I have a friend who is so nice and funny, and there was a boy who told her "You're really hot, but maybe if you lost wieght I'd date you."  ?!?! What?! No he didn't. Anyway, there you go. The only thing keeping him away...is her wieght.

In my opinion, it's immature. It shouldn't only be what you see, but what you don't see also. I know you hear that alot, but it is true. In short, images are what defines you. And that's the sad truth.
