graduation, olive oil, wedding dress.

Well I graduate next week in about 9 days. I have never had so many mixed emotions about any single event like I have graduating. Some days I am really exuberant and happy. Some days I am really proud of myself and weepy that I actually did it (which I really didn't think I would). Some days I am sad and never want school to end. Some days I am all three of these and in the same car ride I will be giddy and happy then turn to gloomy and sad haha. I am really going to miss school. I love my teachers, I love all the crazy people I met in the past five years, I love the campus. And I hate people who are negative about UMES...If you don't like it transfer, if you don't go there then you have no reason to hate it!!!

So a few days ago I told you that I was going to switch to olive oil and forgo all of my face washes, lotions, and EVERYTHING. Well I have. I haven't touched any face wash, face scrub, astringent, or moisturizer, I even gave up foundation and just used concealer. My face is looking 100 percent better. I can't believe slathering oil on my face has cleared up my oily skin but it did, and it made my dry skin moister. Skin really does change. When I was 12 I started using Oxyclean. I swore by that for atleast 5 years and then all of a sudden it stopped working. Then I switched to Cetaphil which was amazing up until here recently. I guess my face has gone through another transition. Plus, I actually look forward to washing my face with olive oil. It is actually kind of fun haha.

Lastly, I ordered my wedding dress yesterday! So here is the story. Last monday when I went and tried on wedding dresses I fell in love with this one dress. I didn't decide on it right away because there was a dress coming in that I still wanted to try on (they showed it to me in the catalogue). So yesterday they gave me a buzz that it came in and I tried it on and the catalogue dress looked AWESOME. But I still really really loved my original dress so that is the one I went with. I feel so bridal in the one I ordered, its modern, yet traditional. I just can't describe it without giving it away!

  2. just straight oil. sometimes i mix it with raw sugar to make a scrub. you can mix it with lemon juice too. I don't know what that does but thats how most people use it.
