To start this one off, let me explain that even though I like to wear my hair down - it's shoulder length, thin and blond, so it is easy to deal with - the summer Perth is having is too hot for that. It was 44 degrees Celsius today, and I was dying.
Also, let me tell you, make up is my strong point; I can do almost anything with makeup: smokey eye, liquid liner, bronzer, fake tan etc. But hair is a different story. I can do it down in about two ways, a half-up half-down thingy or a pony tail, and a fancy (yet extremely easy) bun thing for formal events, but that is it. I just don't have the coordination for it.
So today, my New Thing was a milestone. I taught myself to French Braid my own hair!! It is great, it means that there is some hope for me yet, and with a bit of practise, I have a new hairstyle for school in this hot weather!
Got to go, have had work all morning and people over all night (it's Australia Day, the equivalent here to the 4th of July in the USA so it was a public holiday and there were fireworks in the city which you can see from our house) and am extremely hot and tired.
If I don't melt before tomorrow, I'll write then...
