Good afternoon everyone,
Today it's muddy and sunny.
*
It's a matter off surviving. The upcoming next period, and it's extreme prices, and mainly: The almost characteristic flow and energy off this country. It's very negative. I get by, still. I get by, I live, I dress myself, I clean, I eat food, I drink water. I'm alive. But it's hard.
My beauty standards and rituals have turned down to basic, on the level off middle eastern. Simply natural but groomed to acceptable. Clean and washed, but undyed. And no make-up, but still- good skin, a smooth face and home plucked eyebrows, and I hope I don't smell bad. I spray perfume behind my ears, still. I still got it on a birthday discount, I do a whole year with a bottle. I think I can still pass for the approval off elders. That's mainly why I'm tidy and clean. Since I'm in a care home with mainly an elder audience. I refuse to let myself go out off poverty or protest. It's how I've always done it. And it works for me. I still eat healthy and I'm still clean. It's not for being cool, not for statement, not because I can't afford- but for my sweet old fellow clients. And offcourse, care staff. I can't let myself go like some stupid street idiot. I still brush my teeth, dress tidy and wash. I feel it's better. It's how I do. I don't do make-up, but I still make the best out off myself. It's still possible. Despite not buying the latest trends in clothes. I look a bit cheap, being all natural and a bit fizzy. Beauty based on the mediteranean, and thank god I got the eyebrows for it. Otherwise my face would be ugly and bald. And undyed hair- It looks stupid, but I have to deal with it, still, I'm naturally a cool blonde close to brown, and not grey yet. My main concern is to keep it fresh.
Being sober is not looked down upon by elders, being badly dressed is. I can't behave like street scum, it's also against my personal norms. Compared to them we're almost posh, compared to rich people, we're almost trash. It's such extreme others in the outside world. And fellow clients from a younger generation are usually poor, and badly dressed out off poverty and bad hygiene. I feel with them. But I'm against populair behaviour off being unwashed. Being washed in this place is almost sacred, since they all wish they where capable to be more clean. It's a basic human need. I'm against the current trend. I'm against people being filthy and unwashed.
Somehow, I think after this crisis is done, I think we will be displayed to immense greed again, and people being clean and arrogant with something they better owed up a cheaper substitute for during crisis, for hygiene sake. There's nothing wrong with that, to stink it like a horse out off it's mouth is worse. I got the luck I'm still capable to be acceptable clean. I don't like the unwashed trend among young and hip and happening people. I'm almost stuck up proud off how I'm doing it. It's my opinion.
So, yeah, that's how I'm doing. I'm not going to FAUN, it's over-prickling for my senses, so I'm trying to sell my ticket. It's not happening, I wonder if it will sell at all. Over-prickling, bad energy in the air since they can all drink my blood, and I can't keep up with being an evening out. So I canceled. Haters gonna hate.
Still, with a bit off make-up when I'm out, I do nude lipstick then. And a mascara look, nothing too strong, something that suits me. It's natural enough to be cheap. And only when I go out, otherwise it's no make-up, and just a good face oil and face wash. I don't believe in plamour. I believe in natural glamour. And simply deal with what nature gave you. But clean. It's how to deal with crisis in my opinion. I can still be out on the streets with it, I'm good enough. I can deal with it. Life is not over. But let's hope peace will be here soon, so others can live aswell.
Allright, that's about it for now-
Thank you for reading.
