the UGC: More Randomness

More Randomness
June 09, 2011

Remember this list of camera apps for android? I've got one more to add (with many thanks to Regan): Magic Hour. I think it's probably even closer to Instagram and Hipstamatic (I believe there's even an iPhone version) - there's TONS of filters and then you can download a bunch more for free. I also think it's got the best "send to flickr, facebook, etc." interface of all the camera apps I've used. There's a free version if you want to try it out, but after taking only a couple of photos, I went ahead and paid $1.99 for it. Totally worth it.

I've started to try and use my Pinterest account more. I've been adding a lot of stuff to my boards the past few days, and it's been kind of fun. I also added a little Pinterest button over on the main page sidebar. That should make it easier to follow me, if you're so inclined.

I'm growing my hair out so I can do stuff with it, like braid it and put it in a bun, etc. And I've noticed a couple of things. One, it hasn't grown THAT much but the amount of hair that I'm now finding in the bathroom and the bathtub drain is astounding. It's been a while since my hair really had any length to it, but I think this is normal and I just forgot.

While we're on the topic of hair, I'm fighting a very strong urge to give myself bangs. I always think I want bangs, then I cut them, and then I regret it and have to wait for them to grow out. Yet, I keep standing in the mirror and combing my hair to the front to see what bangs might look like. Help!

Not to get TOO girly on you, but I went the extra mile and put on some make-up the other night and it reminded me that I do, in fact, have eyelashes. And they're kind of long! But so light that they're not very noticeable. The Almost-Sister-In-Law suggested I just wear brown mascara if I wanted them to be more noticeable, which I kind of like. But is this a thing? I always feel like if I wear make-up I'm supposed to wear all of it: eyeshadow, blush, lip stuff, and mascara (and probably something else I'm forgetting). So my naivete with these sorts of things makes me question whether or not I can just wear some mascara? Though, the more I mull it over, the more I think, "who cares, just do it". Anyone have mascara recommendations?
