So I saw “He’s Just Not That Into You” and I have to admit, I’m definitely disappointed. I expected more from a movie that boasts Jennifer Aniston, Ben Affleck, Drew Barrymore, etc. and hello- the whole point of the book is that MOST guys WON’T be that into you. So, not to spoil the ending, but if most guys are just not that into you, then how is it that most of the characters had a happy ending to their story line?
I came across this article on Glamour’s site and it made me feel a little better for wasting $12.50 on another hopeless fairytale.
So I came across this article on CollegeCandy and I almost died. I AM the “other girl” that this chick’s boyfriend is friend-cuddling with. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not some cuddle whore that goes around from one taken man’s bed to the next but I’ve had my fair share of cuddle time…some innocent, some not so much. The thing that got me going about this is that this is EXACCCCTLY how things got started between me and my first love.
We met my very first day of college- September 2, 2001. I saw him and there was an instant attraction; I used to think it was “love at first sight” but I now believe that that concept is complete and utter bullshit. Ha, I’m not bitter or anything. Anyway, let’s call the soul crusher “P.” P and I were instant friends with our sarcasm, dry witt and a shared love of going out to eat and spending as much money off campus as possible. He loved my innonence and kindness and I loved just pretty much everything about him from his crooked smile to his hidden Boston accent to his confidence to his hippie flip flops (aka Birkenstocks). We bonded instantly and were soon cuddle buddies. One problem- he had a serious girlfriend who went to school in Massachusetts.
Long story short, I often slept in his bed. Nothing EVER happened, though no one ever believed me when I said that. We would just lay there and talk for hours about everything…I loved it. Being close physically to someone, even when it’s not sexual, can be an amazing experience and that’s why the girl who wrote the article should definitely question why her boyfriend feels the need to do this with someone BESIDES her. As someone who has been the non-girlfriend cuddling partner, you SHOULD be worried, girl.
So it’s no secret that I heart anything and everything that Gwen Stefani does. Here’s a perfect gift for a sister, cousin, friend, etc. OR yourself, lol. Harajuku Lovers “Love” perfume is sweet and I love that it actually does look like Love, who is one of Gwen’s backup dancers.
The scent is floral with notes of rose and vanilla orchid…very romantic…very sexual.
So I read this awesome post on Glamour’s beauty blog about how a certain un-named celebrity derm revealed that her A-list patients regularly swipe their feet with Stridex Pads. Why you ask? Salicylic acid is a great exfoliant that takes off dry, dead skin AND the pads have an astringent that erases odor as well. It’s a great trick for when you’re wearing high heels OR for those sweaty summer months when you’re wearing sandals and no socks!
