hello, old friend. 10:35 PM

Monday I'm a bitch


Today I was affronted by somebody who left a big impression on me.
I suppose I can't really blame her for her makeup faux pas. I mean; it's not as if I'm Miss Matte Complexion myself-- but still, we can all try, can't we?
Look, I understand that you want to make an impact but is it really neccessary to go around looking like L'Oreal and ExxonMobil (that's one of the world's biggest oil companies, for those who weren't made to buy a year's subscription of The Economist for GP lessons) did a joint collaboration on your face?

Let's just say she brought a whole new level of meaning to the phrase "let your beauty shine".

Repeat after me, honey: touch ups, touch ups, touch ups.
Could you not invest in a little Clarins Hi-Def face powder, maybe? Or, since we're talking recession and all- a compact of that $2 Daiso pseudo-powder stuff? Flour? Ashes? ...Or, if all else fails- a big brown paper bag?

And we're not even talking clothes yet.
It's fine to choose to wear clothes 3 sizes too small/300 decades too young.
What's NOT fine is to let on that they are.

Remember- as Miley Cyrus says; Spanx are your best friend.
Look as if you're nine months pregnant? No problem. Just nip on a pair of Spanx, and-- voila! Instant waistline.
If you really can't get your paws on a pair of the miracleworkers, I'm sure Miley would be more than willing to lend you one, considering she's currently all on about her whole "i love Asians. Kawaii-nehh!" campaign now.
There was a picture I came across the other day that showed Miley posing for the cameras with a bunch of random Asians on the red carpet, post Miley-Cyrus-mocks-Asian-eyes/gets-into-photo-trouble...again controversy.



...Honestly?
Just look at that. What is the girl trying to prove?
If anything, her expression looks more like "...why do these people smell of chop suey?" than a sincere apology.


Speaking of which.
What's up with that, anyway? C'mon- the girl was having a little bit of FUN. Yeah, FUN. You know- the kind of thing they used to do back in the sixties.
Sooo, having a bit of fun- aand she happened to rather inconveniently have an Asian friend right beside her. Random coincidence.
Miley's funny face = slanty eyes = mockery of all Asiankind? ...Uhh. I don't think so, people.
I mean- when ah lians pile into the neoprint machines and start doing those weird kawaii poses where they open their eyes to make them look as big as half their face; does anyone sue them for mocking Elijah Woods?
IMO, everyone's blown the whole sitch way outtuv proportion and okay so the Asian guy does look a little "...the fudge?!" next to all the white kids doing weird things to their eyes in the picture but that's probably just because he's so stoked that he's all down with Miley Cyrus, y'know, and probably can get his paws on them Hannah Montana freebies and stuff.

*takes breath* *

...WOW.

Mondays really AREN'T my best look.
