They are kind of fun to use on cards and mailing boxes and such. <br /><br />I was looking for Etude House in Japan when I visited. They had these strawberry shaped lip glosses that I just fell in love with online. But I struck out and never found them. Good for you!! I cannot wait to see your Etude post. The ladies sounded so sweet! And freebies?! Heck yeah! Please show us!!TheRedolentMermaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12025330454820306972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5714980244556913165.post-34075033474731754042016-08-04T22:02:35.836+10:002016-08-04T22:02:35.836+10:00My mom always yells at me because I don't carr...My mom always yells at me because I don't carry a purse. I stick cash in my checkbook and stick that into my back pocket. She says "Someone's gonna steal that." I finally snipped back at her once that it's much easier for someone to grab her whole purse sitting in the cart than a small checkbook tucked into my pocket. LOL<br /><br />They say it takes something like 15 times of doing something to create a habit. If I could get over the bumbling awkwardness that comes with my trying to function with a purse, and carry one 15 days, maybe I'd manage to convert myself.

Our assumption ...The restaurant was maybe 25% full. Our assumption was that they were low on staff and didn't want to put too much pressure on the employees. It probably hurt their sales since it was the middle of a Saturday and they essentially turned away lots of people.<br /><br />It's so hard realizing how much of my crafting stuff I left back in the States. OF COURSE I would want all of my crafy things once I no longer have them at my fingertips. I'm trying to be very good about not going overboard while we're here.<br /><br />I got started on makeup late because I was too busy playing outside to care about makeup, so I guess that could be that I was a tomboy. Unfortunately I had some major skin issues once I hit puberty and all makeup I tried made my breakouts worse. I was incredibly self conscious and chose to let my skin breathe and not risk further breakouts. That's what's kept me from wearing makeup until recently. Every time I would try my skin would react horribly, and I'd opt to go bare skinned instead. Now that my skin has a bit of durability so to speak and we have the funds and access to nicer makeup, I'm trying again. It's gone well so far, so fingers crossed I'll finally be able to wear makeup! <br /><br />It took me until two or three years ago to be comfortable carrying a purse around. I still feel weird at times, but it's very handy having the purse to hold everything I need instead of asking Michael to hold everything in his clothes with sensibly sized pockets. What is it with women's clothes and tiny pockets?!Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14804234325450434702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5714980244556913165.post-29575476225174717252016-08-01T21:36:29.792+10:002016-08-01T21:36:29.792+10:00The picture of the American eatery made me laugh. ...The picture of the American eatery made me laugh. An hour wait? Looks pretty empty to me. lol<br /><br />The craft section pictures had me ooohing and aaahing, of course. I've been good about not buying too many things for myself because I keep going back and forth so much on my crafting phases. At least I haven't thrown it all away this time!<br /><br />The makeup store story is fantastic. Why don't you wear makeup? I grew up very tomboyish and just never learned how to use it. When I tried later in life I just felt so awkward, like everyone was staring at the clown paint. So yeah, I just don't bother. Same with carrying a purse. lol<br /><br />~DebDebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05658958620972494748noreply@blogger.com
