Obsession in cleanness
It's 1:26 am now, and I just finish doing laundry on the clothing (jeans and such) I brought early today. Yes, I have to make absolutely sure that the clothing I brought are absolutely clean whenever I feel like it's time to wear them.
Tempon and pantyhose
I have an extremely busy lifestyle, and as such I don't have much time to shop around. That's why if I find something that work for me, I will continue buying that same product again and again.
For instance, I brought a bag of Target branded Maxi overnight absorbency tempon (28 piece, pink in package) which is supposed to be the same as Always' Unscented with wings and sensadry. The 28 Overnight wrapped pads has a huge coverage surface area and worked great for me so far. So I think I will buy it again next time when I go to Target.
I also plan on getting another box of 2 pair Leggs' Sheer Energy B Suntan pantyhose. I like the Sheer Panty Sheer Toe model because it worked great with my qipaos, and my imperfect legs need something to cover up a bit.
My first major shopping for causal clothing
Up until now, I haven't been buying any female clothing for daily wearing. All of the dresses are either dance costume, cosplay costume or race queen costume. Yes, they are all costumes. But now I get to a point that I need to attend some social gathering that prompt me to the need of getting some regular daily clothing, at least a nice tank and a pair of jeans. And that's exactly what I did today.
I brought a pull-over sweater and pull-over from Belk today. Both were in Medium size. And then I got 2 pairs of jeans as I decided that I need one for wearing boots and one for wearing regular heel. I tried Lee Platinum premium fit collection 6 M bootcut stretch and it fit me well. So I brought it. Before that I tried 6 S but it's a bit too short for my taste. I also tried 8 Medium and it's a bit too large and baggy. I also brought a pair of Levis 6 Medium Perfect Waist Straight 525 jean.
So I finally have something to wear at next gathering. Yeah.

Finally cut my fingernails
After leaving them long for almost one month, I finally cut the fingernails. It's so much comfortable to type without fingernails, but I missed the feminine sensation. Oh well, you can't have everything.

Getting better on polishing nails
I polished my nails today in cherry pink, and found myself done a pretty nice job. I partly credit my success to some blogs that I read about polishing nails. The tricks I used were:
- Make sure brush applied strokes in parallel to the nail and not dip down perpendicularly
- Start a stroke in middle an then each at the side.
- Always apply at least 2 layers on each nails
- Use cotton sticks to rub off excessive paint
After wearing the nail polish for a day, I now totally understand why applying the clear polish layer at the very last, which I did not do, is so important. I will definitely do that the next time. Nevertheless, I think I did a nice job today, and I am looking forward to try it again somtime later.
Sewing, Gluing and mending
It's post-Thanksgiving day, a day that I can relax and do stuff that I find important but not particularly urgent. So I took the opportunity to fix some of my costumes. In there are way more items that I found needed to fix than I expected. So I just keep sewing, gluing and mending those broken costumes. I don't thing I have everything needed to fix fixed, but I did enough to make me feel good about myself.
