Beauty > Brains (aka Sephora > studying)
Finally got my order yesterday :D Thank you Purolator for coming to the rescue! The mail has been MIA for so long, I thought my creams would be expired by the time they got here. Thankfully they made it alive. And yesss, they work!! $135 (free shipping) well-spent. I think this could be the start of a beautiful downward spiral of addiction :) On another note, welcome back Canada Post! And just in...

62words:
Sitting in the diner, she wonders if this is it. If her life is destined to be simple. She never knew what she wanted; maybe that will be her downfall. They don’t look unhappy. They have their wrinkles and bad clothes, but they look content. “I want more than to be content,” she whispered to no one but herself. “I won’t settle.”

All my life...
62words:
I thought about all the people who are unhappy day in and day out. I wanted to save them. I wanted to tell them that they weren’t alone in this world. Even if they thought no one cared, I would still care about them unconditionally.
In the end, I just felt lonelier. I could save everyone but somehow not be saved myself.

“Whatever you hold in your mind will tend to occur in your life. If you continue to believe as you have always believed, you will continue to act as you have always acted. If you continue to act as you have always acted, you will continue to get what you have always gotten. If you want different results in your life or your work, all you have to do is change...

"Soooo... do you have a boyfriend yet?"
Being asked this (in my opinion) pointless question gets on my nerves.
For one thing, if I did have a boyfriend I could never be the type of person to keep it on the DL - I already burst with delight at letting everyone know when I have a crush on someone. For another, I always get the feeling that the people asking already seem to know the answer (And why do they have to add “yet”...

5 reasons to give a compliment.
pittising:
1. It increases your level of awareness. Simply being observant enough to give people compliments on their clothing will refine and heighten your fashion sense. Saying out loud that you like it reinforces the memory into your mind so that you can later incorporate it into your style if you want to.
2. It will make you feel better. Yes, this is a very cliche point, but it is...

This sprained ankle has temporarily killed my...
But not for long. I ain’t gon’ let it stop me from having a million miles of fun!! Summer’s much too short to “rest” and stay indoors. As soon as this piece starts to heal, I vow to hit the gym / park / pavement in full force.
