Just the usual

Happy 2nd day of passion week!

My OOTD for early morning prayer:

Old school dad's polo jumper, thrifted grey denims

Haha, please ignore the blender :P ; that's where I keep it (I do all my blending in my room).
Comfy and absolutely casssssu.

Anyways, I want to go and pick up some magnesium capsules because I think I may be deficient, and I'm running out of B12..I also wanted to pick up some probiotics for a friend who's been suffering from diarrhea (due to IBD), but dang it, I feel so lazy! 
I didn't sleep last night, since it'd entail me possibly being unable to wake up at 4:00 AM for the prayer pickup. I'm trying to regulate my sleep schedule by staying up all day today (SO HARD, ACK). 
Idk, I have to keep myself occupied somehow so I probably will make that trip to the vitamin store. If not, I have two movies lined up (Hotel Transylvania and The Rise of the Guardians). Thinking about it now, I DO have to do laundry..I guess my day is pretty much planned out, huh?

I'm going to force myself to get off of my toosh and out the door, if not for the magnesium, then for the fresh air and a bit of exercise. Living way too sedentary as of late..

Toodles~

Choices, choices

Of course. OF COURSE I'd wake up with a HUGE cold sore today with a wedding to attend just tomorrow.
Oh woe is me, but am I surprised?
Not in the slightest.
On to bigger (hardly possible with the monstrous size of this cold sore) and BETTER things..
What to wear?

Now, I'm hardly the wedding expert; I think I've been to a handful at most in my life, so they've always been a go, eat, leave type of thing for me. Well, the wedding I'm about to attend seems more, how to put this, invested in by the couple. Now, I don't mean to disrespect those who's weddings I've attended (because really I don't), but the wedding tomorrow seems to be on a higher scale in terms of the amount that was paid in money and time. They have their own website for goodness sake! Not that there's anything atypical about that, just that, well I guess I've never experienced such a couple so dedicated (and a super cute/perfect couple they are).
So yeah, it makes me just a wee bit more anxious about tomorrow. Especially my state of dress - what if I'm too formal? Not formal enough? And on top of everything, in terms of weather in the east coast, it's a frigging winter wedding! Darker colors? Boots? AUUUUUUGH. I. DON'T. KNOW.

I've basically narrowed it down to two dresses - working with what I have (as indicated in the previous post). (Sorry about the craptastic picture btw):

1. A damask printed black and white dress
2. A sparkly charcoal shirt tucked into a black skirt.

No, definitely not the best of choices, but what is a girl to do..Sigh. 
My qualms with choice one is that it's a size too big and so it's not as flattering as it should be; also, it's black and white and I don't want to risk wearing white at tomorrow's wedding (invested, as mentioned). That being said, the fact that it's a size bigger makes it SUPER comfortable. On the chance (ha!) that I food coma tomorrow, no belly would protrude as it'll stay hidden underneath all that beauuuutiful fabric. Qualms with choice two is that, well, it's super dark. Granted the wedding tomorrow is in the evening, but weddings are supposed to be like the opposite of funerals! And the outfit looks pretty casual..I hope to fix that up with a blazer; maybe I'll add some burgundy leggings in my pathetic spruce up attempt? (Ick, maybe not).
ANYWAYS, I'm leaning towards two, simply because it's more flattering and fitting for the after party to occur. Idk, I guess we'll see what happens.

On other matters, guess what I picked up?!
My jourrrrrrrrnal huzzah! (Apologizes for craptastic picture number two):

Markings by CR Gibson

I went to Staples in an attempt to find something there and I did! But, and a big but at that (heh), I totally overlooked the fact that it's LEATHER ugh. That may drive me to return it, we'll see. Being vegan is so much easier when it comes to food!

I finally moved my lazy butt to take a profile picture this morning; I don't like taking self pictures when the sun sets because the quality becomes terrible, so if I didn't do it in the morning, I wouldn't have at all. My eyes kind of bug me out in the photo because I was wearing my Geo angel greys. I guess I didn't really realize just how unnatural they made my gaze look until this photo. Oh well, it'll do until I take a better picture (aka overcome another bought of laziness).

Day well concluded

..Kind of, heh.

Just got home and though I was highly disappointed by the limited selection (boo), I ultimately ended up picking out things that I NEEDED, which is always a plus! No money wasted!

L to R) First Row: Cute "cosmetic mirror" for closeups on vanity, up&up contact solution (2 pack), up&up shaving cream, up&up toothbrush (4 pack); Second Row: Cotton Swabs, brow razors, disposable razors

My Target didn't even have disposables for women so I picked up the disposables for men haha. Tomato tomäto, no? 

Oh, I also picked up headphones, but I ended up finding the ones I "lost" in my computer desk drawer. Though I find that if there's one thing I can never have enough of, it's headphones. Maybe its because I have to use in ear buds since my ear holes are smaller (the smallest buds usually fit perfectly), and I'm stuck with no music if I don't have a pair available. 

Originally I wanted to pick up a personal journal to (kind of) chronicle more spontaneous thoughts/ideas, but alas, that did not work out too well. I also wanted to pick up a dress for the upcoming wedding on Saturday, but that too did not work out well. I think it's a sign from God to work with what I have. 

Practicality is key it seems! Not that there is any complaint from me (aka my wallet). Hehe.

Public personal content?

I've been getting lazy with my personal blogging on tumblr (public blogging's been dead for me for a while); a friend's creation of a fashion/beauty blog (jsquared921.blogpost.com) has motivated me to get back into the writing grind.
The public state of this blog will hopefully keep me accountable in writing regularly..
HOPEFULLY..

I've been so lethargic and unmotivated lately. Even doing the bare minimum is a choreee -  fuddgetabout working out, tidying up, and makeup!
For example: today?
Stayed home with the excuse of a doctor's appointment - DESPITE the fact that the appointment was scheduled way before my classes. Then, came home; and now sitting in front of the TV, making a blog to feign productivity.
Oh, such is my life (these days anyways).

Planning to head out to pick up a couple of necessities - makeup remover wipes (ha! like they'd be put to use anytime soon), back up headphones (managed to lose a pair and am on my backup now), contact solution (eek! yo neccessito), yam noodles?, a physical journal?, EYEBROW RAZOR ACK! (managed to somehow misplace that too). Pretty catepillar eyebrows are a contradiction and I have a wedding to head to this Saturday.

We shall see where my lazy state of being takes me today. I need something to get me out of this viscious "there's tomorrow" cycle. Alriiiight, can't hold in the contents of my bladder anymore, must.makeit.to.bathroom. Au revoir~

(Then eat "breakfast" and head out...or try anyways).
