I'm a councilor for the Young Women's youth group at my church, and for tonight's activity we went to a really warm, charming home where lived a warm, charming woman and her warm, charming husband and son, and we got our eyebrows waxed.
I don't consider myself a girly girl, and Kayla from so many years ago could tell you all about her lack of womanly skills and knowledge, but lately I kind of dig it. I just explained it to a friend as feeling like how it feels when you've finally cleaned your house, only it's on your body. Taking care of things. Realizing my womanliness and how much better I feel about everything when I feel maintained and just a little polished.
I still have days where makeup and my face never shall meet, and stuff. I used to go days and days without washing my face and it didn't bother me. Now I have a whole nightly face-washing regimen, and if young me heard me say that sentence just now she would stare in disbelieving disapproval. Why care? But I looove how good my face feels when it's clean and soft.
So this is a post of not really anything. I guess I just want you to know that I like nail polish and clothes and makeup and having my eyebrows waxed occasionally. Basically I'm just reminding you that I'm a girl, because you forgot, didn't you. You're always doing that.
Ok, but I still don't wash my face. Except for a little rinsing with water, and very rarely soap, in the shower, which is also not as frequent as most... But it sure is fun to be a girl. ;)
