okay so target. does anyone ever go in to target with a plan of what they need to get, and come out with only those items? if you do, or you can, then you are a saint. i definitely can not. target is a place where my biggest temptations become reality. i go in and come out a different person and definitely a different bank account. its fine. lets be real, everyone does it. hopefully
apple watches. it seems like everyone has them or they are getting them. most of the time if you ask someone if they like it, they usually go on and on about how they cant live without it and dont remember life before it. well not me. sorry but nope. i like it, its fun and yeah its cool. but do i feel super stupid when i try to reply to someones text from my watch? yes. can i feel you judging me when i am scribbling quick message back to someone. YES. believe me, i understand the judgement. BUT. i have one, and i cant take it back now, so i might as well get some use out of an over priced bracelet. okay super dramatic i know. i should be thankful that i am fortunate enough to spend money on something like that. but i just might be a little bitter that i spent that much money on something like that. lets be real its a watch. i can go to walmart and get something that tells time for $3. why have a phone and a watch that can do all the same things pretty much? i have no idea. im telling you, i have no idea. its not even that pretty. and now im being ridiculous but im being real. they arent that cool. okay done.
socks. re-wearing socks. ga-aa-aag. seriously. there is nothing worse than taking off socks that youve worn for an extended amount of time, and having to put them back on. they are stretched out, sweaty (i know gross zoie) but yeah sweaty. and they just arent the same. i dont know if im the only one who cant re-wear socks, but i cant. if they have spent time on my feet, then they have to go through a wash and dry cycle before i am wearing them again.
on the topic of reusing stuff. i cant reuse towels. if ive dried off with this towel, again, it has to go through a wash and dry cycle before im going to dry my body off with it again.its stupid i know. youre the cleanest youve been all day (hopefully) after a shower. i dont know what it is about it. i think it sends me back to my memories of freshman year in the dorms when you do your laundry at the end of the week so each towel that you have is used several times. i mean its fine. lets be real, i would just rather wash my towels before reusing them. not sure if thats weird or super high maintenance, but its me so, okay.
if we want to talk about towels though, im getting on the topic of the towels that are to never be used. ladies you know what i mean. the towels you have in your bathroom and the hand towels that are in the kitchen that are not supposed to be used. not for anything. males seem to not understand this concept, with good reason. but im sorry, i have towels that are purely for decoration, and i dont want them to be used for clean ups of any sort. lets be real, most women do this, and i know this for a fact. sorry boys. we are difficult. not like you didnt already know this.
pillows. another thing that us women have a surplus amount of. its fine. its the throw pillows that there is always so much of. do we actually use them when we sit on the couch? no. are they super annoying? ohh yeah. do they end up on the floor most of the time? yup. but are they cute? yes they are. do they make me happy? yes they do. oddly enough i feel a great deal of satisfaction when all my throw pillows are all lined out on the couch and all fluffed up. its fine, im weird. im high maintenance.
so the other day i wanted to do a treatment on my hair. i wanted it to be super soft and silky and ive heard all the great things about using coconut oil. so i took out my jar of coconut oil and grabbed embarrassing amounts of it in my hands. i put this oil in like it was conditioner yall. on my roots down to the ends and RUBBED it into my scalp. i mean my hair was going to be soft, no doubt! so i did this while i took a bath and let it soak in for about 30 minutes. to be honest i thought i needed to keep it on longer. i get in the shower and wash it all out and i think im good. well i go to bed, and wake up in the morning and go into my bathroom to get ready for class. class that i have in 30 minutes.. and my hair LOOKED wet! it was completely dry, but it still had so much oil in it that it seriously looked like i had just stepped out of the shower. so i decided to go with a hat for school, obviously. thank The Lord for no dress code in college. i came home after school to go straight to the shower again with a little bit heavier of a cleaning shampoo and got busy. that seemed to do the trick. needless to say, i wont be rubbing coconut anywhere except my elbows and knees from now on. heres what my hair looked like when i got up. gross i know.
lets be real, this is more of a bunch of rants. but its okay. this is me.
all my best always
(except on "lets be real" days obviously)
