My Pathetic Attempts at Acting Like a Girly Girl.

I'm the oldest in my family, so I have no older sister to teach me to curl my hair, paint my nails, or do my make-up. I kind of just have to figure it out as I go. My mom helps me some, but she didn't have an older sister either, so she's not extremely knowledgable on all things girly.

I was doing my make-up this morning and I just wanted to do something different with my hair. Just for fun. I found a curling iron and gave it my best shot...  lol.

When my curls ended disastrously, I looked up "how to curl your hair with a curling iron" on youtube.
How pathetic is that? haha


That didn't help, so I called one of my friends. I hope she takes this as a compliment, but she's the most girly person I know(: She always has the right make-up, the right hair, and the right nails. I laughed when she started talking about brands of fake nails and nail beds.

"I really have no idea what you're talking about," I laughed. I told her that I was the oldest and have no big sister to tell me these things. She immediately volunteered to be my "big sister." I got lots of advice from her on which nails to buy and how to curl my hair.

Long story short, I got home today, managed to get make-up in my contacts (resulting in my glasses having to be worn), I barely saved my nails from disaster... and I managed to burn the top of my forehead with the curling iron.

Classic.

It's not like I'm totally oblivious when it comes to looking nice, it's just that I don't know everything about being a girly girl.
