melting makeup

it is a sweltering 94.
& being quite proud of my makeup job today (purple smokey eyes with gray winged eyeliner), i hope my makeup doesn't melt off my face like dali's clocks...... it's kind of a horrifying image. hmm. maybe a next drawing/gouache project

since this is only my 2nd entry ever in my blog, i can confidently deduce that professional blogger is not in my future choice of careers. although i've already made up my mind to be a brilliant fashion designer or something of the sort. even though i haven't really started on my summer assignment... much.
it's kind of a problem.

lots to prepare for..... :)
I.E. LONDON IN THE FALL ! words cannot even describe the excitement/anxiety. T minus 17 days.
not to mention all the little things that i must to do to prepare for it. blerg.
in addition i'm also volunteering for the white event with an organization scarlet cord {a fashion show featuring local portland designers & lots of other fun things !} just as a dresser in the back, but also to prep for the show i'm helping this totally cool guy {one of the designers for the show}, lamont, & i think either for his line or his boss's. unsure. but should be good experience & a chance to practice my sewing skills. as my sewing machine at home is currently hating my life & making me miserable.

well time to get ready for some fun before work at banana republic.


now that i think about it. probably no one is reading this & i can post just about anything here, & i wouldn't get in any kind of trouble.........
although there could be the off chance...... better not risk it!
cheers.

"cansei se ser sexy"

which according to pandora.com's artist biography snippet, is portuguese for "tired of being sexy"
how great is that phrase?
{currently listening to 'let's make love & listen to death from above' by css, the band that derives it's name from the abbrev. of this cheeky line}




i love that their band's name makes me chuckle. & i don't know how much confidence you need {or how good looking you need to be} to tout around that kind of band name {perhaps a mixture of both, depending on the quantity of each quality you hold...}

& that sort of leads me to my next thought- is there a universal agreement of how sexy someone is? like, who decides that? the sex gods? a panel of judges which consists of john legend, angelina jolie, heidi klum, & george clooney?
hey for all i know, that groddy man that i'm trying not to make eye contact with in the snack aisle is sex on legs in a texas tuxedo.................. to someone that's unbelievably drunk....



blerg.
maybe i should get started on something productive; like my summer assignment.. look for a new phone..

or eat ice cream & rewatch julie & julia?
will work out tomorrow, perhaps.
