Bimbos unite!

[pat]

thanks kensie!

whoa calculus?! you're crazy. i hate math and when i say hate I mean it with passion. hahahaha

BTW, you're beautiful and despite what others may say to you or about you, it just shows how insecure they are with themselves.

I guess everyone kinda goes through that phase in life when they aren't happy with their looks. hell I still do especially with my body, it kinda comes and goes like a wave. but i try to imprint in my brain that even if my body isnt perfect, hell i feel fierce with my makeup. hahahahaha

 

[darkishstar]

Kensie we just click. Even on the whole astrology level.

We so would be good friend IRL. I used to worry about my looks too. The crushes I used to have in middle school all thought I was really ugly.

And I still feel that way a lot sometimes. That there's something about me not exceptionally girly or appealing to guy, especially when I don't have make-up on.

Patty, welcome!
Lovin' that Kirsch.

And I know the studying and specktra will be an issue for me.

Mari - you need to model. Srsly.

Katie - Go study bad girl you!!!

 

[rbella]

I think they should re-name this the La Perle thread.

You've been busy! I can't keep up on this tiny little cell.....

 

[darkishstar]

Patty - btw, I am a math major. Well, going to be.

I'm going to be taking Multivariable Calc in the fall.

But I took it already Senior year of high school. heh.

Rbella - YAY!!!! I missed you. Checking on your cell as usual.

 

[coachkitten]

Rbella how are you!?! I miss you so much! Glad to see you pop your head in.

 

[chocolategoddes]

Yeah, I was definitely depressed and troubled for so many reasons.

And I have to add, being the only black girl in my group of friends didn't help in the "feeling confident about my appearance".

It kind of feels weird and embarassing to vent and share all these things with random people online (who you're going to meet in Vegas in 2010!!!!) but it's nice to let it all out and see what people have to say about your comment. Also, you get a better idea about what kind of person this personality you know from a forum is.

 

[rbella]

Thanks guys. I miss ya'll so much. it's really bad here. i'm so sad, I really have no words. but all your well wishes have kept me going. hugs!

 

[chocolategoddes]

Rbella, YOU'RE ALIVE!

 

[laperle]

I have more pics for CAM-CAM. I found the CD with the old carnival party pics!!!

There are so much more. People get drunk and go picture happy...

 

[laperle]

bellissima thinks i talk too much...

 

[chocolategoddes]

^^ Okay Mari , we get the point. You're hot.
You make me want to jump in a blender.

Those are hot shoes btw

 

[coachkitten]

I want to know what kind of parties you go to Mari because none of my friends have parties like that!

I agree that those shoes are totally hot!

what in the.......... hahahaha

multivariable calculus?! you and kensie can team up and tutor me lol jk

 

[laperle]

Kensie, this is not the point. The point is to HAVE FUN in your LIFE. I was a miserable teen. And my mom was bankrupted. When I got the chance, my life completely changed! And now I look my old pics and smile because, hell, that was fun!

The shoes are awesome, from a little store that sells for drag queen, you would LOVE to go there, because it's in a chaotic crowded funny area of the city.

And I know your feeling about being the only black kid in the group. My cousin (the one in the pic) in the single one in her group and class. Now, she's in University, I don't know anymore. Her bf is a white french boy. And she's not so close to her black dad. So, what she knows as family is a bunch of white people. Her beauty stantards are all so white.

I have zillions of black friends and I they are so gorgeous and I keep trying to convince my cousin to embrace that, but she feels like acting white. I respect that now.

Still, I'd love her to stop relaxing and ironing her hair and let it be like this of my friend Karla:

Man, Karla is DIVINE.

Katie, three words to define these SUPER FUN parties: gay men parties!

 

[darkishstar]

Patty - Heehee, I'd be glad to!

I love helping people out. I can only hope that I DO well in my own classes! With rushing and everything.. I hope I do well. I better time manage well because I will be working too.

Kensie, I totally get you. I had a lot of problems when I was younger. I was never as open and outgoing as I was now. I really.. blossomed, so to speak near the end of my high school career. And I really became the person I'm supposed to be once college started. I find as you get older.. these things become a little easier. Especially in college. You really grow up then. I didn't believe anyone when they told me, but I got it now.

And I grew up in a neighborhood full of mostely Mexican children, same with my elementary and middle school.. and I got made fun so much for looking Asian. I was a "Cochina China." A dirty Chinese girl.

And my mom, being an immigrant couldn't teach me really how to be American or dress nicely either, I didn't have a lot of friends either and I really had to learn myself. I was SO awkward then! I'm so much better now, and I find that like you, that I wouldn't trade these experiences for anything. They pretty much build who we are. And I'm sure you wouldn't be who you are today without going through what you did, even if it was tough.

Whew, that's a life story right there!

Mari - you are a pretty little thing. I wish I could go to parties you have gone to as well! They look like so much fun.

Haha! I LOVE gay men and their fabulous parties.
I don't care how un-politically correct this sounds but... I want a loud, sassy, diva, girly gay friend! I have a few gay guy friends and I love them to death, but sometimes I'll see these flashy, fun gay men and think, "Wow! They're awesome!"

Thanks. It's true, once you're able to accept yourself and be true to yourself, you can learn to open up to others and just have fun with life.
I think a lot of my humor comes from the pain I experienced when I was younger, too. I don't take myself seriously and I can joke around and be the biggest goofball.


I really don't even think about being the only black girl in my group of friends. It's not an issue until someone brings it up and makes it an issue.


Okay, let's stop talking about our sad childhoods and let's be fun bimbos again.

WOOHOO!

Parkie, I was like you sorta. I had my own private world and was 'the crazy' one in a very strict elite catholic school. My mom couldn't even afford that, but she wanted the best education for me. I didn't have money to buy dresses to parties. The girls were totally Gossip Girl mean on me for having little money. I had to put a brave face on and be creative. I was also from Rio and they feel threatened because we are the reference when it comes to Brazil. It was a lot of things... and I was one of the best (or the best) student in the class, but it never counted. All I wanted was to get rid of that shit and that bloody city.

When I left, it was new me. I met people who were like me, I finally felt good about myself.

I hate when people label you, like the mexican kids did to you. This makes me so angry. When I catch a kid doing something like that to another I lecture.

The dressing is always hard when we are teenagers. It takes some time to get your style. I was 20 and happy in those photos but you can see the bad tan+hair color combo.

You can come party with me.

Those parties were great, there were so many... I always picked a theme and invited the gays = FUN

 

[darkishstar]

Heehee. That's only 1/8th of the story. That's about all I care to share though. That's not the most painful I'm afraid.

Btw, the whole gay men party thing. That's why I love my MUA Billy. He's so flamboyant and awesome! He made me love Kirsch.

And I got 2 Macy's giftcards for a total of $90!!! I'm going to spend them at MAC tomorrow! Yay!

Added: Mari, yeah... children can be cruel. Being a Teenager.. from middle school up to mid-high school is always the most awkward. You hit puberty.. you don't fit in... you're changing and haven't found yourself or your own style yet. Heheheh.

 

[CantAffordMAC]

Oh gosh. Mari, thank you for all the pictures...they are so sexy and entertaining

Rbella...thank you for checking in. My heart goes out to you

Kensie...I am too tired, but all I can say is Ive basically been where u were too. I will try to elaborate tomorrow.

I am tired all of a sudden...like...I think just tired of being on the computer. I havent gotten ANYTHING done today. So Im gonna go to bed and get ready for work tomorrow

BTW....I ordered those hot ass boots. But they didnt have my size until DECEMBER...so i ordered a half size smaller. Ill make them fit, damn it!

Goodnight, beautiful bimbos
