A Saturday Night

Ok so it’s Saturday night at last! Why at last you ask? Well after a whole week writing essays on St. Luke and the Holy Spirit, going to work every day and buying the remainder of the presents for the blessed Christmas season all a girl wants to do is meet her girls bitch about everything and everyone  and drink our pretty made up faces off! And I can’t forget to thank the Lord for the invention of makeup itself otherwise a girl like me being with the self-esteem and confidence of a scared little turtle wouldn’t be able to show her face outside when she’s all dressed up. If I don’t put make-up on when I’m all dressed up I honestly could not stand to look at myself in the mirror. Right now I’m popping pills and applying expensive creams to maybe get rid of this god forsaken thing called acne! When I started getting them at about 13 I thought to myself “I guess it’s normal with puberty and developing and all that crap”. But now that I’m 20 it’s like enough with frickin puberty and development. I’m not getting any taller and my brain isn’t really morphing into the one of a genius so why still with the zits?
I mean I know with or without them I’m still not the shiniest penny in the coin jar but like every other girl I wish I could look at myself in the morning and not think “Nice another cherry on the cake that is my plain looking face!” So I guess if it wasn’t alcohol that managed to impair my judgement and shut down my insecurities I would spend my whole Saturday night complaining about how ridiculous I think I look, how much I’m eating and how fat I’m getting and a million other traditionally girl issues I guess. But when we start drinking it’s a whole other story I can forget everything at least for that night which is one of the main reasons I love my Saturday nights. So good night to that insecure boy and girl in every one of us. Shut him or her up with some booze and have a real good time whether you’re alone, with friends or with family and remember  Life is too short to spend hoping that the perfectly arched eyebrow or hottest new lip shade will mask an ugly heart.” – Kevyn Aucoin.
