This is going to be a
challenge.
I mean, it's the first day
back from Winter Break, but that's not entirely why.
It's what's after school. You know, that one club
with that one cute guy that seems really nice and
you're trying to get to know better? Yeahhh, that's
it. But what am I going to wear? Hmm... *looks in
mirror* These jeans look nice, I think I'll wear them.
With that cute light blue shirt from Victoria's
Secret PINK, the one I bought slightly before break, but
only wore once or twice with a hoodie over it. And besides,
I haven't worn it to any of these meetings yet. It
looks sort of like a football jersey. It says LOVE PINK in
white letters at the top with a big number 86 underneath
it, and then has those little stripes on the sleeves. I
also love these flip flops, the black ones with the silver
studs, I wear them often. But my silver ballet flats are
cute too. The flats are a size too small on me, but who
cares about pain? Anything to look amazing. I wore them to
the last meeting we had. But I still love those flip flops!
And if I wear them, then I could show off that toe ring
that I always wear, and my sparkly hot pink toenails (which I need to
repaint, which I'll do this weekend). Not that he
hasn't seen them before. I mean, he probably
has, but I don't think he's
noticed. Not that he should really be looking at
my feet, because that would be weird. You know, a guy once
complimented me on those flip flops. But it wasn't
that guy. No, it was just some random kid from my
Biology class, in the very beginning of the school year.
But that kid, he doesn't even like me like
that. I guess he just thought they were cool shoes. And if
that kid liked them, then maybe this guy will. Maybe he
already does, but doesn't say anything about it. Kind
of like how I like his hoodie, and his sneakers, and that
other hoodie, and his hair, and his eyes... ANYWAYS, where
were we? Oh yeah. I think I'll wear the flip flops, but
who knows? If it's too cold for that, I might wear the
flats. Or whatever other reasons. Whatever I feel like.
It's my feet and my shoes. But what about my hair? I
have a hot pink studded headband that matches my flip
flops, and my toenails too. One of my friends has the same
headband! We bought them matching for Twin Day during
Homecoming Week. I wear that headband a lot. I'm
wearing it right now. I love that headband. But I also
bought this other headband the other day. It's a thin
white plastic headband with orange polka dots. I think it would
be cool if I painted my toenails orange, in order to match.
But that would look too summery. It's winter.
I mean, flip flops look sort of summery too, but at least
they're black, and besides, where I live, tons of
people wear flip flops during the wintertime. Tons! Such as
me. But I don't do it just because everyone else does,
I do it because I want to. I love the way the hot pink
toenails look. And I love how the studded headband matches
that. And so, I think that's what I'll do. Hot pink
headband with hot pink toenails, and black studded flip
flops. Or flats. Who knows? That headband is cute. But I
still need to figure out how I'm styling my
hair! I'll either straighten it, or wear it wavy-ish. I
straighten it almost every day. I think the waves would
look less boring and change it up a bit, and look more
natural and less like I'm trying too hard. Because
I'm not trying too hard... am I? Oh gosh, I hope not! I
don't want to look like a plastic freak. I just want to
look like me. Pretty, everyday me. All of us are beautiful,
in our own ways... but if I wear it wavy, it might not come
out right! I mean, I could curl it so it's a little bit
wavy-er, but everything might flatten out by the end of the
day. And I'm NOT bringing a curling iron to school.
I'm not that obsessive about my looks. I just
want to look nice and pretty and presentable and beautiful
and smart. I already know how I'm doing my makeup. You
know, the same way I do it every day, plus that new
eyeshadow I bought the other day. It's shimmery and
sparkly. Not that I don't have any other eyeshadows
that are shimmery and sparkly, but this one looks
different than the others. Not that he could tell.
They all look pretty. I'll wear mascara, like always. I
want my lashes to look long, but not fake. And what if
it's cold out? I'll wear that gray and white
striped cardigan that I bought from
Victoria's Secret PINK a few years ago. I love that
store. I have a lot of clothes from there. That sweater is
really cute. It was $45, a little pricey, but worth it. And
of course, I'll wear the same jewelry I always wear. A
bunch of bracelets on my left arm, and my
gold
Juicy Couture
charm bracelet on my right. The one with the cupcakes on
it. It was a Hanukkah present from my cousin. It's
really cute! And cupcakes are awesome. And I'll wear it
with the rings that I always wear, and my silver necklace
with the little heart charm on it. I hope I'll end up
looking cute... not that this is any different than what I
usually wear. Nothing really new, just this shirt with
those jeans and that sweater and these shoes and all these
accessories. And hopefully, this will all last me through
the school day. I hope I sound smart too! Looking pretty is
only half of it. I'll be friendly and just be myself. I
don't even know how this is any different. Except that
I'll be happier, and super excited when I walk through
those doors. I've done this many times before, but
it's still a challenge, every time. First meeting of
the new year. This Monday's going to be a challenge,
and that's a
challenge accepted.

(wow, I can't believe
you actually read all of that... hope you liked
it!)
