at random

i had finished washing my hair the other day, and suddenly it struck me how long it was and i had never really noticed until that day... past shoulder, longer than that...and i had it curled not too long ago, it looks nicer than when it did when i was in second year ... :)

always had short hair, sometimes bobbed for the most part of my life and i've been mistaken for a guy so many times i've lost count - a friend's uncle once thought i was her boyfriend when we were out watching a movie...i have a naturally low voice which can pass for a guy's on the phone (the most recent one being when i called the syabas people re the water shortages in kl and the lady on the line said : "please hold on, sir."used to it, didn't flip.)

and the time i was in confession back in fm 2 and the priest told me "i know you are a good boy (!), you always help your mother out ... [some other stuff] ... remember, there are other fish in the sea, there are other girls out there who can make you happy (!!!)."i remember my eyes getting bigger and rounder and my jaw about to drop...errr... i get this feeling he wasn't quite listening to what i was saying or that he even understood...nevermind, i m sure this one confession was still counted. i hope...

well, after realising my hair's length and how i apply conditioner every 2 or 3 days (because i've started to love my hair after abusing it for so long), i had the urge to dress up...yes, foundation, blusher, eyeshadow - light pink, a nice matte brown lipstick, the pink top and ala-denim skirt i bought last cny, and hairclips...i just adore hairclips, although they have this alarming tendency to get lost, or to be separated when i am looking for them...i have a small (but getting larger in time) collection which includes the egg clip, the dark blue and deep red ones, and the sparkly rhinestone clips i wore at my fm 6 graduation nite...
i felt strangely happy. it's been awhile. and it felt good.

i realise that a lot of people in fac treat me as what harn has handily termed as a 'social barometer' that is to say, when i am dressed up properly, wearing either my penguin suit or other formal 'baju' with my black skirt or slacks, they'll know something's on in fac.

i like my jeans/baggy trousers, baggy t-shirts, and sneakers (well-worn from all the walking to and fro) which is my usual attire for lectures...but i am also starting to like dressing up too. because simply put, it's fun. :)
sometimes all you want to do is look nice, real nice...and heck, you can do it for yourself. no worries! :)
