What are you afraid of?
Me...
-Lobsters. Before they were over-fished, when the colonists came over, it was not uncommon to find 6-foot lobsters. I'm not shitting you. SIX FOOT LOBSTERS.
-Sewer snakes, sewer rats
-Cars
-Guns (well, we have six, but I still have a healthy pants-shitting-fear of them) As an aside, I'm a great shot. The second time I ever fired one, I hit the target dead-center. Yay me!
-Airplanes
-Well, all the other powerful technologies
-Walking over a grate in the sidewalk and having it fall through
-Used hypodermic needles
-Bot flies
-Ravens
-Rattlesnakes, scorpions, etc especially since I'm so small venom would do more damage quicker
-Tax asessors
-Botchulism
Okay, that's about it. Of course there's more, but those are the ones I'm somewhat paranoid about. Strangely, the thought of being attacked by a cougar or something doesn't really scare me..
Oh. I ordered a bunch of little samples of mineral makeup to play around with (I ordered it before everyone gave me shit about wearing makeup).. No matter what I do, I feel like a clown wearing it. But it's fun. The same part of me that drove me to spend 3 hours trying to figure the best method for painting myself with charcoal is the same part that enjoys wearing makeup (or "drawing on my face" as I refer to it
). It is nice that it makes me look older. I think I've been doing a pretty good job, considering.. But it still looks ridiculous to me, 'cause I'm not used to it. Maybe I'll post pictures one of these days, see if it's as silly as I think it is.
Thanks to everyone who gave me testimonials
Edited to add the pictures:
So.. yeah. That's some blush, some lip balm + pigment that i mixed, and some grey-green eyeshadow with light yellow sparkly powder above the crease and below (which didn't really show very well in these particular pictures.. oh well).. Don't have an eyeliner yet, only loose powders. No icky foundation, thanks.
