I think I’m going to cut my hair shorter so that my hair is the same length again. Keeping the bangs, I like them a lot and shapes my face. I guess? But I’m mainly doing it so I can braid my hair properly and its not all falling out when I put it in a bun. I like the layered look, but I think I’m growing out of it.
Gonna try and do this soon! :)
I have learned how to fishtail braid my hair! Now if I can only learn how to do it straight on my back rather to the side. I should stop asking for layered hair too.
I know I’m skinny but I’m having really bad imagery and confrontation issues. Most people will not understand it because they are not me, but its not really making me feel good. I just went on a diet my mom wanted me to try and its going okay. I keep feeling hungrier each day but I feel like its not doing anything. I know my body better than anyone, and when I say I’ve developed a small pudge they think “What the hell you’re crazy.” But I’m not. I know my body, and its not looked like this to me. I’ve felt my pants grow tighter, my shirts still fit because I’m small in the chest area, but my waistline is bigger. I haven’t gone through the freshman 15 but I have gained some weight from school. I guess I need to eat better, it was all that darn Taco Bell. Eww. But hopefully with me doing this diet I will grow to appreciate my pudge if it doesn’t go away. Mom says that bodies shift and maybe my time has come to go up another pants size. Ehhh. I just didn’t want to face this truth and I feel bad I’ve let myself get this pudgy… Even my mom has noticed it.
Hopefully this is not an on-set of anorexia. Probably not, but I don’t want my self-esteem about my body to get out of hand. BLAH.
Pocari Sweat
I don’t know a lot about sports, but I know science when I see it. And “Ion Supply Drink” is about as scientific as you can get. That alone would have been enough to ensure that I would drink this, the fact that it has the word “sweat” in the title just made me want it all that more.
The first thing you notice about this drink is how it’s not carbonated (yet again, fuck you guys). The second thing you notice is how much thicker it is that you would expect, probably due to the extreme levels of ions that make it into a real life Japanese powerthirst. The third and final thing you notice is how it tastes exactly nothing like anything you’ve ever consumed before.
Once again my favorite thing is the can, both for it’s stylish yet minimalist blue/white approach and the fact it’s covered in Japanese which makes no sense to me. Fortunately there is also a small portion in English which informs me that it actually is a sports drink as it is a “drink which supplies water and electrolytes lost through perspiration”. I guess that also explains why it’s called Pocari Sweat. Kind of.
It then goes on to explain what makes Pocari Sweat the greatest of Japanese Sports drinks: the fact it is “quickly absorbed into the body tissues due to it’s fine osmolality”. I told you bro, science all up in this. This drink has some dayumn fine osmolality gurrl. I’d like to put this down to a random translation thing, but the fact is the back of this can has better English on it than anything I have ever written. The other great thing is what it’s recommended for: sports, physical labor or after a hot bath. Apparently taking a bath is a sport in Japan. Or physical labor. I don’t know which of those is more interesting.
Finally I come to something not included in the drink itself, but something I found in my research (I couldn’t tell if it was Japanese or Korean). The ad. Or in fact, all ads for it. The only thing I can take away from this is the universal constant: young attractive females in white tank tops can sell anything. And when that fails: Bollywood dancing.
I’m skeptical about Asami. I feel really bad for her that her dad worked for Amon and everything, but I was rewatching episode 6 and saw this:
I may just be a huge skeptical nerd and stuff because of the red wire theory being correct, I may be totally wrong (I think I am) but there’s a female chi blocker, and Asami did say she had “self-defense training since she was young.” :| Idk I still believe she is really awesome and innocent but there’s still that doubt, ya know since we don’t know her character all that well still. It could go either way. Heck there may be a female chi blocker for diversity. But there’s still room to think and wonder before this season is over. Only 5 more episodes left. :(
IN NO WAY AM I CLAIMING THIS IS TRUE. ITS ALL FAN BASED AND THOUGHT.
