Resolution Complete

So this year my resolution was No Fear. If you don't remember, here is what I was going to do.

1. Underarm waxing

2. Bikini wax (ouch)

3. Microderma facial

4. Pedicure (the thought of someone touching my feet sickens me)

5. Body wrap

6. Eye treatment

I got most of these complete. Got my underarms waxed, and man it was sooo painful. I will say i'm still doing it. I haven't noticed any big difference in hair growth, but I really do hate shaving. The bikini wax was so much worse than underarm. I had fire crotch for a while too. The facial was long, and a little bit itchy. It's hard not to scratch when it feels like you have a million mosquito bites on your face. The pedicure creeped the fuck out of me. I realized I can't have anyone touch, or go near my feet. But hey, I did it. Unfortunately the last two I never did get to, but I must say, I did conquer fear.

Case of the body

So I realized it's been a long time since i've blogged. So here it is. I've been working (slowly) on my new year's resolution. Just in case you don't remember, here's the list:

1. Underarm waxing

2. Bikini wax (ouch)

3. Microderma facial

4. Pedicure (the thought of someone touching my feet sickens me)

5. Body wrap

6. Eye treatment

So far i've don't really well. Since the last time I blogged i've done #2 and #3. Let me say holy shit, bikini wax burns. I literally felt like I had fire crotch after. Everyone was telling me underarms were so much worse. Well let me tell you, it burnt like a bitch. The facial wasn't bad. The lady kept telling me how wonderful my skin looked, but to tell you the truth I didn't notice a damn difference. But it did feel like she was taking sand paper to my face.

For the love of animals

This post is going to be far different from the rest of my posts. At the beginning of February I started volunteering for the Lethbridge Humane Society working in the office and playing with the animals. Although it's a great place for the animals and they're treated so great, I noticed that there is one thing lacking. Toys. Some of the cats have some previously chewed toys, while others have nothing. The dogs are only allowed the expensive Kong toys in their kennels, therefore they are left with nothing to play with.

Since I have cats, I decided to bring a few toys for the cats to play with. I was just going to place the toys in the kennels that didn't have any. After the first few, I realize I wouldn't have enough to give it. It broke my heart. The cat's who did get toys were overjoyed and all I could hear for 10 minutes was the sound of them playing.

Many of your reading this are probably wondering why i'm bringing this up. Well, I was hoping that I can appeal to your animal loving nature and ask that you buy, or donate, toys (old or new) to the humane society. I believe that each pet coming in should have something that is theirs to have for the duration of their stay, which lets admit it, is usually a long time for. You can drop toys off at my house, or bring over a twoonie so I can go buy some toys. I just was at petland, but only had enough money to buy a few packages of toys. I would appreciate all the help I can get.

Life, ans such things.

So getting my underarms waxed is amazing. It hurt a lot less the second time. Going to keep up with it for a couple months.

Don't have much to talk about right now. To make my life more interesting I have a respiratory and sinus infection from the cold I got a few days ago. Spent almost 3 hours in a walk in clinic waiting to be seen because I was having problems breathing. Now i'm just laying in bed with a cup of neocitrin hoping for some good sleep tonight. I can't cough anymore as my lungs may explode.

It's a miracle (growth)

So it will be two weeks tomorrow since I got my underarms waxed. I am amazed at the difference. I'm going to admit I had a thick, full growth before this. But now it is thinned and very sparse. I'm absolutely amazed at the results. The pros definitely outweigh the pain of a wax. I now have no problem growing my hair out because it's barely noticeable, and doesn't collect sweat and smell the way they did before. I'm in love with the concept of underarm waxing. TOTALLY WORTH THE PAIN AND WAIT!!!

I suggest it to all the ladies with my problems. Guess it's bikini wax next. Dun dun dun.

Burning sensation

So, it's Tuesday morning. My underarms have been waxed. Sweet mother it hurt. It wasn't just regular pain, but a stinging, burning pain. I've never felt anything like it, and i've had tattoos and piercings that should have hurt more than this. Right now my underarms look like they're on fire. Probably because the pores are filled with blood. Yup, with blood, because they bled right away the hair was ripped from the follicles. All I can say is, WHY THE FUCK DO WOMEN DO THIS? And yes, this question also goes out to myself, as I do already torture myself with waxing... and probably will continue getting my underarms waxed so they thin out.

On a scale of 10, this pain was about a 7 (while waxing my legs is about a 3)

Rapunsel

OMG. I can't stand my underarm hair. It makes me have nightmares. I've been growing it for almost two weeks now so I could get it waxed. Not only does it look gross, I have to put on way more deodorant than usual. I don't know how guys can live with long armpit hair. I already want to give in and shave. How can women do this? But I guess it's the same thing as getting my legs waxed. People don't understand how I can let my leg hair grow for so long. All I can say is, HURRY UP TUESDAY!!!! I WANT TO GET RID OF THIS HAIR.

New Year's Resolution

I'm sure many once you read this title you thought my goal would be to lose weight, or eat healthy. Well, that's not even close. This year my goal is to explore female beauty/body projects. Women torture themselves for beauty, and i've decided to torture myself, and my bank account, along with them. This idea came to me while I was in the shower this morning. Why? Well let me tell you. I was talking to my aesthetician this morning about getting my underarms waxed, while I was there to get my legs done. She took a look at my massive amount of growth (5 friggen days of it) and said it would take another week or so to be ready. WTF??? I have issues not shaving for 2 days let alone 2 weeks. To me this is pure torture. This is funny since I have no problem letting my leg hair grow out, but I guess after 6 years of waxing it's really not a big deal anymore.

This is when the great idea hit me. I'm going to explore beauty body projects. I was thinking about what i'd like to try out. But first I had to figure out what a lot of women do. Beauty is pain. Modern women do insance things to fit in with the standard of beauty. We squish our fit into uncomfortable heals. Wear push up bras that dig into our ribs and push our breasts into funny positions. We do some horrible things to ourselves in the name of beauty.

So I will embark on a small quest for beauty. My list:

1. Underarm waxing

2. Bikini wax (ouch)

3. Microderma facial

4. Pedicure (the thought of someone touching my feet sickens me)

5. Body wrap

6. Eye treatment

Wish me luck (because most of these creep me out)
