Saturday, June 07, 2003 Dude...are Chinese parents just extremely critical? Or all asian parents? Or all parents? Or just my mom? A couple of weeks ago she said that the gaps between my toes were too big and that's not good. Riduculous right? She saw my flip flops that I bought at payless...that I liked very much. And then she says AIYA! Why did you buy those shoes with the things in your toes? The gap between your big toe and your second toe is extremely big you don't need something making it bigger. Righhttt. I just found it rather amusing. And lately, I've been like having a volcanic erruption of pimples on the right side of my face in this small area. Well around my right temple. So my mom saw it and was like OH MY GOODNESS AIYA!!! You REALLY need to do something about that. It's just getting worse. (I agree with her on this one) I can't fix it! Wahh. And I keep scratching so I'm the one guilty of spreading them. She was like if it keeps going on like that and you scratch them you're gonna look like the craters of the moon. Wah. But her remedies are out of this world. You need to hurry up and drink some "bitter tea." There are many variations of this tea all of which are bitter yes. But I would never really be able to tell which one is which if you just put the ingredients in piles in front of me. Why? Because they're all a mixture of leaves, sticks, twigs, and bark. That's right...you take all those and boil it in water and then drink this lovely dark concoction of bitter smelling blackened water that cleans your insides and clears your complexion. That's not all! (I sound like an infommercial) She also bought a watermelon today so that I would eat some and then immediately rub the rind all over my face. I've done that before. I just feel cold and sticky afterwards. Oh oh another is letting eggwhites dry on my face or is it honey water or both? I just felt my skin getting really tight. But my least favorite which I will NEVER do and think is gross is....drum roll please...washing my face with rice water. Ick...you know that nasty water that you pour out when you rinse rice? That stuff that is all cloudy and dusty and murky? Yeah she says that's EXCELLENT for my skin. And should save that water and wash my face with that. Umm no thanks I'll stick with my tepid water and fragrance free neutrogena. Then today she said something about my eyes. She says they're big. But bad big. Since when was there good big and bad big? I thought big was just good all together. Well I guess I was mistaken. I was told my eyes bulge too much. She was like yes your eyes are big but they bulge at the same time. And it's not a good sign when they bulge. (my mom is really superstitious and what have you) And when you get older if they continue to bulge it'll be a sign that something is wrong with your liver. Good golly I didn't know my mom went to med school too. Don't get me wrong I'm not upset with her or at her. Infact, I'm laughing while typing this entry. Just find it extremely amusing the things my mom picks out. Guess she has that right since she gave birth to me. posted by Sewa at 1:48:00 AM # Thursday, June 05, 2003 sheesh...I need to stop dreaming... posted by Sewa at 2:04:00 AM # Tuesday, June 03, 2003 Ya know...it's the beginning of June and last night there was still a frost warning on my weather bug. What is wrong with the picture? What is up with all these random people on my guestbook. And how do they find me to put "nasty" sites on there? Gahhhh...I might just delete my guestbook. And all the other entries are missing. Gargh. I saw my apt for next year the other day while visiting state with Cassie. A couple of words...sweetness...it is gonna be so nice once we get in there and decorate and settle in. Wonder if I'll keep seeing "the car" next year? ^_^ *wink wink* For real...I'm gonna be proud of mah crib next year. My mom thinks I'm crazy cause of the way we went to see the apt. It was right before we were gonna head home from state. And then I really wanted to see our apt. So I asked Cassie and Denise if they wanted to see it too. And the response was "right now?" So I said I'm up for it and we would just go knock and tell them that I was living there next year and could we see the place. So as we approach Denise goes and hides behind a corner and Cassie tells me she's scared. Ehehe leave it to fearless me mwahahah. I told them "just play along." Right everything was cool until a huge black guy answers the door and says something like "yeah?" I don't even remember I think I was just thinking...darn it I wish it was a girl so things would be easier. But he was super nice. We got to see Cassie's future room...we've got amazing personal bathrooms and walk in closets. A girls dream let me tell ya. But these dudes were livin' it up too...he had zebra print goin' on in the bathroom and a drapery like set goin' on for his shower curtain. And we're right next to the pool....can we say excited??? posted by Sewa at 12:09:00 AM # |
