Does your everyday makeup routine consist of
foundation,
powder, concealer, eyeliner, lip liner, lipstick, and blush?
a
dab of sun block?
a
little eye shadow, some mascara, and a coat of lip gloss?
In the morning, do you
spend
thirty minutes blow-drying your hair, even if you are just going to the
supermarket?
sometimes
dry your hair, sometimes let it go natural and secure it with some fun
clips?
wash
it and maybe comb it?
Are your nails
so
long and manicured that you have actually been called "Dragon Lady"?
nicely
trimmed and painted a fun color or with some clear gloss?
bitten
down to the stumps?
When asked at a school basketball game to wear a T-shirt to support the
boys, do you reply:
"Excuse
me, that T-shirt doesn't go with my shoes."
"Sure
thing,"' and slip it on over your sweater.
"Um,
I guess," and take off the stained, holey shirt you are wearing and put
on the T-shirt.
Is your daily jewelry
always
rings, bracelets, a necklace, an anklet, earrings, and a toe ring?
a
silver bangle and a fun necklace, and maybe some rings if they match your
outfit?
a
falling-apart friendship bracelet that you made at camp in sixth grade?
Are your gym clothes
a
matching warm-up pants/T-shirt set and brand-new sneakers every month?
a
pair of old sweatpants and a T-shirt from your favorite vacation place?
the
same as the clothes you have been wearing all day-after all, if the teacher
doesn't realize you always wear old, crummy clothes, why should you bother
to change?
Are the shoes you wear most often
stacked
platform patent leather sandals?
a
pair of Dr. Martens?
old
Nikes?
When talking to friends in the hall, are you
talking
while reapplying lip liner?
chatting
casually?
standing
slouched over and staring at the floor?
In class, do you
spend
the whole time listening to voice mail messages on your cell phone and
changing the settings?
sit
there and exchange a few eye rolls when the teacher gets really boring?
look
at the desk and pick at your mosquito bites?
Is your schoolbag
a
leather designer bag filled with toiletries?
a
messenger bag or regular backpack with a few notebooks?
your
old, ink-stained bag that is torn in several places from having been shoved
into your locker so many times?
