i tried finding this particular one in the stores and online but couldnt find it anywhere. apparently its available overseas only? i could be wrong. i fought someone on ebay for it.. and won

oh.. the price in the UK is about $180 USD, i got mine for $85

ooo sounds cool... what exactly is it called?

I have the emjoi one...but mannnn i really haven't epilated in a while, it hurts too much!
and uhh exfoliating is such a hassle. :lazy:

its this one: Braun Silk-épil Xpressive, model #7681

i exfoliated my feet and legs... feels and looks so nice

I have the same one. Is this your first time using it sumiya?

Epilators give me ingrown hairs. Maybe i'm doing it all wrong. I dunno. So i invested in a wax warmer thing-a-majig. Didn't try it yet. Maybe this weekend...

No, becuase if I was porking out on ice cream, I would have gained weight, and I didn't.

Besides, there isn't any ice cream left for me after Mr. ChotooMotoo gets done with it. That's why we don't buy ice cream, Mr. ChotooMotoo needs to keep his figure.

I don't think it's possible to really be ready for one baby, let alone two.

OK, question for, well, anyone really. My dad is a meanie. He doesn't seem like he wants me to do anything with my life. And yet, my sister can do whatever she dreams of. Example: I want to go to law school, but he was like, no, you can't. But my sister wants to be a pharmacist, and he was like, oh yeah, go ahead. It upset me, but I am still gonna continue with my dream.
Then, he claims he wants to marry me off. He found a guy, who I am ok with, but the only way I can contact him is through my dad. My dad is being dumb, cancelling meetings, going to work instead. It's really pissing me off. I mean, he is so strict about this, and he claims he wants me to get married, but his actions say otherwise. Then, well, the brother is really nice, and I like him I guess, but he kinda has a record. I know I shouldn't really look into the past, and to be honest, I'm not really, but I wonder why he would want to marry me off to a former inmate when I know my sisters will get a guy who has none. I swear, everyone can see the way I get treated wrong, but they claim I'm the crazy one. I would love to move out, but realistically, it's not possible. I'm too poor, and if I want to go to law school, I should save money. I told him that if he doesn't let me see the guy, I'm going to tell him to forget it. I hate how he dangles things in front of me, like you lead a donkey with a carrot. I want to cuss him out, but I won't, that'd be wrong. I just hate the way he treats me.
Am I being immature about this?

no, i dont think youre being immature.

when it comes down to it, it is your life. your career choice and your choice in a spouse is yours to make, not his. with that being said, of course you have to respect your parents and take their advice when making choices. but if he is being unfair, you arent doing yourself any favors by just going along with it.

inshallah khair

I was a soda addict too, but alhamdullilah now, I've completely given it up. Of course, once in a while, I do cheat

Try substituting soda for water, juice, fruits, etc.....thats what I did. And take it slow......you'll get off it eventually

If you can spare some time please....I could really use all your dua'as right now. I'm still waiting on a call from a job that I matched with 99.9%, so I'm a high candidate.....Alhamdullilah! Inshallah, I get this one

Money is reaaaaaaaaaaaaaalllyyy very tight for me right now and I've slowed down on spending to save. I hate asking my dad for $. In fact, I want to help him, but I can only do that after I get a job

also, if you're a fan of fruit-flavored sodas, try diluting fruit juice with seltzer water. orange juice + seltzer is not quite the same as orange soda, but it's very refreshing in a different way.

i was never a soda addict... it always left a gross sticky feeling in my mouth, and i was always really thirsty afterwards... definitely a water person
