But when Amanda came down last night we wanted to make homemade face masks. And we found this website with "quick and easy homemade face masks" so we thought, "PERFECT!"
And we're reading through them, and there's this one that's like, "cocoa powder mixed with milk." But, NOPE, for some reason we decided to go with the one that called for tomato, lemon juice and oatmeal. So, I didn't have regular oatmeal, but I had the kind that's brown sugar and maple. We decided that would have to work.
Ok, so I'm chopping tomato and Amanda's mixing the lemon juice and oatmeal, we put it all in the blender..... VOM. It looks JUST LIKE VOMIT. It was this weird/disgusting smell of tomato and brown sugar.
So, we got towels and started putting it on our face.....
At one point Amanda was literally gagging. This stuff was RANK. Also, it was freezing cold.
We kept it on our face for 10 minutes, distracted ourselves with the 'As Long As You Love Me' music video (which is pretty intense), and then it started to sting, so we washed it off.
We were like, "why the hell didn't we go with the chocolate one?!?!?!?!" Like, seriously. Come on.
Ah well. Our skin seems fine today, so there was no major damage. It was a fun time still, haha.
Everything else has been going pretty well. Been busy with random things.
New York! I went to Brooklyn two weekends ago to see Aliya, Joe, Kerianne and Noel!!! Kerianne and Noel had gotten really cheap tickets from Chicago so they were in for the weekend, so I drove down for the weekend!!! Had lots of fun. Ate lots of good food. I hadn't seen Kerianne since I was in Chicago almost THREE years ago. Thats - crazy.
And I'm seeing her again in TWO WEEKS when I go to Chicago for Navy Graduation. CRAY! I'm so excited.
Joe, Aliya, Julie, Kerianne, Noel at Dunwell Donuts!!! That place is great for photo shoots... as you may remember....
That trip was -Kerianne and Noel, but +Elizabeth! YAY FRIENDS!
I've been hanging out with friends a lot, which is great. Saw Greg on Tuesday, Alana and Julie on Wednesday, Amanda last night, and Julie again tonight! Julie is Greg's ex-girlfriend who is totally fun and awesome and me and Ben went to two parties at her house around the holidays. And she's like best friends with Ben's sister, Alana, so weird coincidence there. But everything worked out.
OK, sorry I haven't written more... It feels weird because I'm constantly writing everything out to Ben in my letters, but I forget that they're not published in my blog. Prob for the best. I'll be better.
Going to take a bath now... then get ready for open mic at The Stone Church! I don't think I've ever been there before. I'm excited.
Hope everyone is having a great weeknend!!
LOVE!
