Decisions, decisions

[thelake]

I'm just like the weather today. I can't decide if I should be sunny and happy or say "Hell with it!" and rain down on everyone's parade. I think I need to sit down and make a serious "TO DO LIST".



My biggest problem at hand: I'll have my period this week and fuck that shit, because I'm going on vacation on Wednesday. If it doesn't stop until then (or you know Thursday is fine, too) I'm seriously going to cut a bitch. I hate being a girl sometimes.

And one thing I hate the most about summer:

WAXING

Grrr, argh. Why can't we evolve in one night and get rid of all the hair on our body? Except our actual *hair* and eyebrows and eyelashes...

I want too much out of this life. I'll never be 100% happy. I AM CURSEDDDDDD.

Off to do the "TO DO LIST" now.

I HEAR YOU. I've been waxing for the past six years, so I've built up a tolerance to it, but the periods? UGH.

I admire people like you who are used to waxing! I usually shave, but for the beach, razors just don't cut it, lol.

I'm currently on period watch. If I get it today, I have a very good chance I'll be done before I've gone away. *sigh* Being a girl is hard.

This is totally, totally tmi, but do you use tampons? Because I can say that getting my period became about 29384029850 times less annoying once I ditched pads for tampons.

Also, strangely enough, being on birth control pills have made my period much more tolerable. I haven't gotten cramps or PMS at all since I started taking them, and I don't know if that's a typical side-effect of the pill, but I'm certainly grateful!

I've never tried tampons actually. I'm kind of irked by them, idk why. I think I'm afraid I'll forget to change them, eventually get poisoned and die.

...

Birth control pills = heaven. I'm using them right now, but I have an absolute shitty timing arranging my vacation, that's the thing...

I used to be kind of scared of tampons too, but like I said, it's made getting my period infinitely better. I used to worry about leaks all the effing time with pads, but I don't at all with tampons, and it's just a lot more comfortable because your panties aren't stuffed with cotton like you're wearing a diaper. They are a little uncomfortable the first couple of times you use them, but after that you don't even notice you're wearing them. As for the poisoning thing, well, that's never happened to me, anyway. XD Obviously it's up to you but I really recommend at least giving them a shot and seeing how you like them.

ahh you are so brave for waxing! My mom believes that razors are the devil and she has always tried to force me to wax or epilate, but I just shave instead, lol. I think that Turkish women just prefer waxing for some reason, but I'd recommend switching to a razor. Much quicker, and much less pain!

I generally shave, but I hate the little red dots around the bikini area after I get out of the water! So waxing it is.

*tmi girly post is tmi!*

[chicaintcheap.livejournal.com]

ah good point. I'm suffering from those right now and it is HELL ;_; But I'm still not brave enough to wax D:

I read your comment above and I'M SCARED OF TAMPONS, TOO. I actually did use them for a while, but got too paranoid, haha. And then you're not supposed to use them overnight, so IDK.

I've never waxed, though. Maybe I should try it sometime, since I hate shaving. I never seem to get it right, haha.

I think I'll give it a try just to see how it is, but I don't think I'll ever use them regularly...

Ugh, if you've never felt the need, don't. I never wax my legs since I don't have much stuff on there, but for bikini and arms, you gotta do whatcha gotta do. Either way it looks messy.

[katayla.livejournal.com]

Yeah, they are pretty convenient in a lot of ways. (But I do think you shouldn't use them at night. That's not just paranoia, lol.)

I do have lots of stuff on my legs and it grows FAST. :( I think I do need to do something about it, since it makes me reluctant to wear anything but pants. And my bikini and arms are just gross.
