Day 8

On the down side...

So we all know that a lot of women wear make up. Whether you're painting on a whole new face or just slapping on some mascara to make yourself look more awake, it all counts.

I tried imagine what I would do with that extra half an hour every morning instead of taking forever to pick an outfit, styling my hair a little, and of course my absolute favorite, doing my eyes in a way that I look fresh, alert and ready to take on anything the day could throw at me. The sad truth is, when it came down to it, I slept. thats right, all I did was wake up a half hour later.

Did that extra half hour of sleep take away the bags under my eyes from the weekends festivities? No. Did it make me look at feel wide awake? No and unfortunately I don't drink coffee either, so I simply had to resort to looking tried and slightly sickly.

The amount of people that have been asking me if I am okay or why I am upset in the past week has really been abnormal. If I was at all feeling sexy despite the makeup ban, its certainly been crushed now. "Rough weekend?" was the most common reasoning people seemed to go for as to why I looked so bad/tired/sick. Of course that makes perfect sense with today being a Monday. "No, actually I hardly did anything this weekend!" was certainly not the response people were expecting. None the less, it beat the "Why do you look so sad Tatyana?" I got almost daily in the previous week.
