*Bindi*


I'm very much enjoying being back in makeup class again. I've especially grown to love Indian bridal makeup and accessories. It's so colourful and creative. Anything goes! Whatever you're wearing, you can use all those colours on your face and it's still not too much. Jackie and I did each other's makeup matching what we were wearing and both wearing colourful bindi dots. It was so much fun! I didn't plan on it, but I think I would like to do more Indian weddings.

Money saving strategy: cut your own hair. I haven't had a real haircut in probably two years, with probably bi-monthly visits to get my bangs trimmed ($5) which I have also saved now after having purchased this awesome razor comb from Daiso ($2).


It did a much better job than going all the way downtown and paying money to get my bangs chopped inconsistently, which I still have pictures to prove. Last night, I made Ursula trim my hair and then layer it with the comb. Woohoo! Saved $25 and the transportation costs.

Made a sudden trip to Victoria on Wednesday since Jay will be leaving very soon and we had to go check out places for his stay. Much harder than it looks. Investors, think about buying a place in Saanich, particularly near UVIC because people will be begging to stay there. Shared rooms, apartments, basements are all getting snatched up the moment they are posted (and the prices are definitely higher). It's crazy considering Victoria isn't my primary choice to reside but it's a lot harder getting renters in Vancouver. At any rate, one of my goals is to touch a bunny at UVIC since Jay told me the place is practically infested with rabbits the last time he went. They're usually pretty alert and dart away as you approach them so I was just hoping to be able to poke one in the bottom BUT then we met Tiberius.


He is so CUTE! Not only did I get to touch his bum, he just sat there and let us pet him. Clearly, he enjoyed it because he barely moved when I was petting him, and then he continued eating his carrot (that some kids threw to him) when I stopped petting him. And he's so small! Jay named him Tiberius Prime - a strong name for a tiny bunny. I miss him already. Bunnies are so cute but they are procreating so quickly that they are considered rodents now. Oh well, if I had to pick between rats or bunnies, I'd rather have more bunnies.

*EDIT*

After much emailing chasing, and finally going to the director of the makeup department, I finally got the pictures back from my first exam! Yay!! The photographer really took her time on this I was pretty upset at the lack of professionalism since I already paid her upfront. Oh well! I'm happy with the pictures.
