Holy...

I will never start wearing makeup. Ever. It won't happen. Emma has been putting her face on for at LEAST 15-20 minutes. I just don't have the care for that. -_-

I'm too much of a guy for all that, anyway. I don't think I'm ever going to hit a point where I'm all about cosmetics and dressing up. I balk at that sort of thing. Just leave me my jeans and t-shirts and sneakers.

Worked on the vessel again. Didn't get as far as I would've liked, but I know if I'd added another later on, I would've made the thing collapse again, and that would've been disastrous. I have about 7 1/2 inches of height right now, and I need it to be at least ten inches by Thursday, because that's when our progress check is, and the vessel has to be half-built. The problem is having to wait. I can't build the thing all up at once or it'll fall apart, so I have to put a few coils on it, somewhere between 1-2 inches of height each time, and wait until the next day. I didn't get into the studio as much as I wanted to this week, so I'm trying to make up for it. It should look pretty awesome when it's completed, though. I just need to make sure I keep my symmetrical! It's crazy how difficult it is, especially since the clay keeps shrinking and I keep having to add to it to get it to line up with the template.

Dad might be coming to visit tomorrow! And I get to go home for a few days in two weeks. I'm happy. Puppy then. Also family, but excitement for the puppy is in overdrive right now. XD;

Geez, she's finally done. Dinner, yo. Hopefully good stuff.

I am not used to a roommate yet. I'm still not sure I like it. It's not my room, you know? It's our room. That's still very, very strange to me.

I feel the same about makeup. The only time I bother is when I go to work, and that's only some eyeliner and eye shadow. If you need to spend half an hour putting on your makeup, then really, you may as well go out in full clown face because the world isn't seeing your real face.

Give me jeans and a T-shirt any day! *is such a tomboy*

I think the only real effort I put into my appearance is keeping my hair dyed, and that's only because I see grey hairs and immediately wind up going O_O >_< "THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE." XDDDDD Which is funny because when I was a teenager, I always said I wasn't going to do that, I would just age gracefully and whatever. :B

I feel the same about makeup. Every once in a while I consider wearing it, but even having my friends put some on me before we go out to the bar takes too long, and that's only 5-ish minutes. I too, am too much of a tomboy for that.

I agree about the roommate thing. I had one last year, and I always felt weird having people in my room, because it wasn't MY room. I have a single this year, and it's so much better.

I've got super sensitive skin so I can't wear makeup, which is how I get away with not having my female friends cover me in that shit. I usually only wear makeup on Halloween or if I'm in someone's wedding or something. If someone only likes my appearance with makeup on then they're just shallow, imo.

Also, sharing your room sucks. Not having that bit of private space you can always retreat to is a bitch for introverts. After a while of not getting that space I get really crabby and no one understands because they're all extroverts ; ;

I have a friend who's like that, she puts on makeup even if she doesn't go out. She has a ridiculous amount of makeup and that stuff is not cheap. It kind of frightens me how much she spends on it considering she doesn't have a lot of money. Goes to show how anything can be addicting, I suppose.

And yeah, living with extroverts is pretty hard when you're introverted, especially when they do not understand that you NEED time to yourself. My roommates do not understand this (they're right now encroaching on my personal space ugh) and will never be able to comprehend this, apparently, and even me specifically telling them that I need my own space doesn't have an effect. I can't wait until Val and I move out on her own and when she's at work I'll be able to have my own free time :/

I never leave the house without wearing makeup but really it's only eyes shadow, eyeliner and mascara that takes me less than two minutes to apply. But it looks fancy enough that if I don't wear it around the house at all for a few days and I put it on they say, Whoa where are you going all fancy... hehe.
