So there are some good things about being small

How I’m staying warm this winter

So the great thing about living at Bdiv is that heating is centralized throughout the building [ insert sarcasm].

If it wasn’t for my Presto HeatDish I would be freezing my butt off. Everytime I go to the washroom or the kitchen to grab a snack, it feels a good 10 degrees colder than it is in my room. This uber-light space heater is not only 3 times more powerful than 1500 watt heaters, but it’s also 3 times more efficient! I especially like how it’s not noisy like traditional space heaters that spit out warm air. It doesn’t take forever to warm up the room and it doesn’t dry up the room as much.

Today, I finally bought a new pair of winter boots. I’ve worn the old pair for 3 winters now, and it was time for them to retire. The sides of the boots were cracked in such a way that snow would seep through. I was also told that “no one wears those boots anymore” and I guess it’s sorta true. I did really like them though.

So here are the new boots (well, one of them). They’re “Bear Paws”…aka wanna-be-Uggs, but that’s cool with me. The inside of the boot feels like a furry slipper or furry carpet/rug and they’re really warm. It’s lined with sheepskin and the upper part is suede.

Thanks daddy:)

Blurry

I think that it’s time that I start wearing my contacts regularly.  I can no longer see clearly without glasses…yet I have put up with it for a while now because it’s such a hassle to put them on.

And sometimes things just look better when you can’t see them clearly.  “Well, sometimes you have to stand back to appreciate a work of art” - Marge Simpson.  I like webcam pics for the reason that they ARE a bit blurry - you can’t really see blemishes.  With 7.2 megapixel cameras, you can’t hide any flaws.  I think the same goes with other blurred areas of life…For example, when you don’t know someone very well, it’s often easier to love them.  Except when you really think about it, seeing things blurry is distorting the truth to make you feel better about yourself.

I think it’s time to own up to the blemishes.

=D

So my friend Katy helped me twist my hair into these funny looking bobbles…and after keeping them in for a couple of hours, I undid them and voila! Curly/wavy hair! :) I think next time I’ll leave them up longer so it stays more curly.
