Am I Ugly

Nah , that’s not the real topic of my blog. Just wanted to have some controversial heading . What I ‘m going to write about is fingernail painting.
It’s always been a mystery to me on why gals actually paint their fingernails. This is because I think clear natural nails are the most beautiful.
However one day out of boredom and stress I embarked on this scornful art. I bought myself 3 colours, dark red, blood red and pink. Don’t ask me why.
Feeling bold and adventurous I decided to try the dark red. It did not take me long to find out how little patience I had for this task. When I tried to put on the colours on my delicate fingers, my hands shook so much that it was not only my nails that got painted. It looks like my fingers were bloodied from a bare hand fight with a lion.
While doing this also I had the urge to use my hands for other things and to my dismay I found that I could not even use the computer keyboard lest the paint on the nails looks nasty when dried up. I had to leave my hands mid air for 5 minutes while doing listening to Chris Brown rendition of With You and trying to croak along with it. Oh Rihanna is so lucky to have him…
Finally it dried (the paint and nothing else) and to my chagrain I still had to put on another layer of coat so that this colour will last. OK this is the last time I’m going to do this, I swear to myself.. never mind about the other two bottles… I’ll just donate them to charity.
Finally it is done and I felt weird that my hands do not look like my own. I thought it looked funny. Just to make sure that people did not feel the urge to giggle when they see my hands I begged my room mate to tell me the honest truth on what she thought about my product of vanity. She paused for a moment and I thought she was going to laugh hysterically.
Nice work.. Did you do pay a fortune for this? she asked… Wow I was flabbergasted. My amateur work actually look like a professional work to her. Maybe I should change career. I would be the world famous manicurist and be sent of to Hollywood to do the nails of superstars, celebrities and models.
Ah… my imagination has gone too far. Earth to Steph…. Well that’s my experience in nail painting and I don’t mind doing it again. Now let me show of these babies to the rest of the ladies!

Rihanna is getting beaten up by him!!! Whats wrong with you and please check the spelling of CHAGRIN (Sorry I can’t help it, I used to proof check biographies and news letters in my previous job). Ok now for my comment.
So you have adopted the method of using controversial headings to attract attention just like me. Nice writing. I enjoyed reading it. It had humour, gave me a peek about who you are from the inside that a lot of people wont be able to see and I liked what I saw. It also had lots of unwanted informations
but this is how a personal blog should be written. It will contain things that means a lot to the writer and if want to know the person more you will read all his/her garbage
and like I said, this is good garbage.
Keep on writing

Boy are you frank. Glad you think that it is good garbage!
Chagrain Chagrin … whatever … as long as you understand
Yeah I thought the thing about Chris Brown was a rumour. We don’t know how true this is .
