Project Time

     So, I have decided to better myself. How you may ask, well its a little project that has been done before and does work if you stick with it. It involves going cold turkey with somethings, and doing more of some other things. Of course the way to do this successfully is baby steps.

     Now for the part that you will not believe, I collect make-up. Really, its true, when I really want to wear it, i know what to do. Highlighter for the cheeks, eyelid primer to keep everything in place, foundation, concealer, four different types of cleanser, three different eyeshadow pallattes with an 88 color one on the way thanks to my loving and wonderful roommate as a combo birthday and Christmas present(hopefully, if not, I will find a way to have it). So, why dont I put it on? Well, I am lazy as fuck in the morning, but I always seem to buy more than I need, and more that I will use. I also do not get rid of the old stuff, or use it till the silver tin is showing with the old stuff. Which comes to the cold turkey project. After today, I found a really good deal on the stuff that I use the most when I do wear it, I am not buying anything more in the cosmetic departments(yes that includes bath stuff too, =[ ), until I use up completely twenty of the things I currently have clogging up my make-up bag and drawer. I figure, hey it will help me save the money I do not have, and maybe motivate me to actually try to look cute on more than one occasion. Maybe I will wake up earlier, who knows.

    I also seem to collect school supplies, and buy more when I still have a bunch left. I guess I get this trait from my nanna. So, I am going to do the same thing, no buying any until I get rid of a good three quarters of it. Plus, it will help me save paper, and somewhat of the environment that I am ruining with all my chemicals on my face and body that constantly go down the drain.  So yes, there is the cold turkey part of the project, though it is not exactly cold turkey, just for a little while.

    Next up, is training myself to be a better student and all around person. I have done this before with being more optimistic and positive, and I think I did succeed with that. Now I am going to work on my study habits because waiting till the weekend before the test really does not work for me. So, seeing as I am in buhl for a good amount of the day where I am doing nothing on the computer. I am going to start small and devote one hour of that time to studying any subject. Maybe I can incorporate it into my time in the apartment. Who knows if it will work, but it does not hurt to try. So if you see me, tell me to get my ass back to studying in between chem and anatomy(10:20-11:20).

  So here is to working on this between the rest of this semester and next semester. Here is to a better me, and here is too a more frugal and smarter me as well.
