real quick, i promise


<<<<- Yes, that is me fresh from the shower, no makeup, no product, no nothin' (it proves a point, trust me)
I made a hair apointment last week for tomorrow... I was of the understanding that i needed a new haircut. My hair is now all one length and long. I wanted to get it all layered with a side bang. I wanted a lot of layers with the primary focus on my crown, while keeping my length and giving me a side bang. I really liked the idea. As soon as I brought it up to my mother, she said I shouldn't because my hair looks nice the way it is now and I'll regret it later. I brought it up to my (very liberal, very artistic) sister and she said the same thing. Apparently everyone thinks my hair is just splendid the way it is!

I gave up because ultimately they're probably right. I just get bored too fast. I gave the damn apointment to my sister because she wanted one anyway. It's irritating though, I really do want to do something new to my appearance.
I have been looking into new makeup and hair techniques. I'm not a huge makeup person because every man I've dated (okay, so anth is the only "man" i've dated, the rest were young-buck highschool boys) has said that I look better without makeup and that I'm better without it. Seriously. I mean, it's nice not to have to buy cosmetics all the time or put effort into my face and not rubbing my face along anything or rubbing my eyes (which i do a lot), but i miss making myself look pretty TO ME.
I'm not trying to pick up other men or draw attention to myself, it's just I feel more confident and more attractive when I'm wearing makeup. Same goes for when i do my hair. I just feel better and more put together when i'm all done up. Plus, i really like what you can do with makeup.

ANYWAY, that brings me to part two of my thought process today. I would really like to be a makeup artist. I think it would be a really fun career. Granted, I'm not the most artistically-gifted person you've ever met and I have never been really into makeup, but i think it's a really cool concept. Maybe more of a hobby for me, considering my current career goals and college coursework toward speech therapy... but maybe down the road.
Or maybe if i have another oops...

That's been killing me lately too.

So anyway, CHINCHILLAS! Well actually, cats. I want a cat soooo badly. I finally have an apartment and therefore i can actually get a cat. they're low-maintainance and so ridiculously cute. SPCA hands them out! Plus I can baby mine into oblivion and i will finally have something to mother instead of my poor friends!!!
Sadly, however, anthony is very allergic. :((( Cat dander makes him 4372102039275235 kinds of stuffy and thus, very very irritable. If there's anything I've learned in the last 10 months with anthony, you don't want him irritable.

--------------------------------------------
side note: thing that make anthony irritable
- being sick
- any weakness for that matter
- when he is hungry
- when he is in traffic
- when i mother him... D:
- walmart
--------------------------------------------

So i can't get a cat because i love boyfriend and it would be a great loss if he couldn't come to my apartment. :((
We were looking into hairless cats, but they cost anywhere from $1300-$1600, and that's without a pedigree.
So no kitty for Kristin. I was also looking into a Holland Lop Bunny! I had bunnylove for a good month back in march and anth almost got me a bunny for my birthday. Problems here: they are soooo smelly and i don't know if my apartment can handle it. :(((
I almost want a guinea pig again - ginger was fantastic. Only, same problem. So very smelly.
I love chinchillas.

So now i am pet-less. I will have to settle with anthony as my only furry friend. He'll just have to do i suppose.
