after a show in which (on an unrelated note) Ben...
Ben: Kate, you have so many blue clothes!
Me: Yeah, I do.
Ben: Have you ever thought about dyeing your hair blue?
Me: Many times!
Ben: Why haven't you done it?
Me: It's really expensive to get all that bleach and toner and dye for hair that's as long as mine.
Ben: Oh, okay. And your hair's really thick too.
Me: Yeah.
Sasa: If you ever do it, just make sure you don't accidentally dye your hair purple instead. Because purple is really close to blue.
Ben: ...Why would it be a bad thing if her hair turned out purple?
Me: Yeah, I wouldn't mind. I have a lot of purple clothes too.
Sasa: Oh. Okay. Well, I was just saying.

…you’re on a pizza date with your man, you mention that you think your hair looks pretty weird today because you tried out an experimental new style, and he says he thinks it looks great and it probably looks even better than the Pinterest image you were trying to copy.
(It wasn’t actually from Pinterest, but I thought it was super cute that he said that, and that he even knows...

bite-sized reviews
1. Astrida Naturals African black soap - TOO DRYING! Bought to use on my face, dried it out; started using on my hands, dried them out too. Won’t buy again.
2. DressGreen rosemary peppermint shampoo bar - Gets hair CLEAN! I also don’t need to use conditioner afterwards, which is totally unprecedented for my traditionally knotty curls.
3. Sycamore Boutique “Winterblend”...
kosteloski:
Y’know, most of my anon hate (the little of it that there is, thankfully) is people calling me fat or insulting me because of how I look.
I feel like I should thank them! I mean, if the worst thing you can find to insult about me is my weight, I must be awesome!
UGH YES. This is such a great attitude to take about it. I used to get so upset when pathetic internet haterz would...

My Six Pirate Kart V Games
damiansommer:
I made six games for the Pirate Kart V. I’m cutting myself off now, but I’m happy with my results. Here’s a direct download to the current pirate kart (only 55 Megabytes or so because it downloads games that you pick on the fly.)

homework assignments pour vous
1. Go on Last.FM. Search up a genre of music that you love. (I’m currently obsessed with dreampop, twee, and, um, Jeremy Larson.) Listen to samples of other artists from that genre until you fall in love with one. Buy their music. Put on your favorite headphones and immerse yourself.
2. Have a languorous, luxurious bath. You can go to Lush or the Body Shop or a similar place for gorgeous...

I just learned how to do this: "•"
I love you, Mac symbol codes. And bullet points.
Bullet points are my favorite. I use ‘em in my journal like erryday.
plans for today:
1. Go to Tsaa for a refill of organic ginger tea. (This will be my third repurchase. I drink like 3 cups a day of this stuff. It is my Holy Grail of Tea. And I’ve almost run out. PANIC!)
2. Go to Re:Reading and possibly Mike’s Music in search of used Steve Carell DVDs. (We are having a Steve Carell movie marathon in two days and my computer apparently doesn’t know how to burn...

update on my music jam day
I successfully wrote and recorded a song, which was my goal. It’s not a very good song. It’s kind of boring and predictable. But it’s a song, which was the whole point of today, so I’m fine with that.
After I was done, I congratulated myself by getting dressed in a cute outfit, putting on some silver eyeshadow, and making some ginger tea. Now I’ll probably watch a...

what I'm using: bath & beauty
Facial cleansers:
-Lush Angels on Bare Skin - this is my basic everyday cleanser. Gentle but thorough. A little bit scrubby. A perfect medium.
-Lush Ocean Salt - I use this 2-3 times a week for exfoliation.
-Lush Ultrabland - I’ve been using this as a makeup remover and occasional nighttime cleanser. Using it is a bit of a rigamarole so I don’t choose it too often, though it is very...
