I just spent the last few hours (like 3 tbh) having a kitchen dance party, which also showed my music taste’s range. yes I said it…which means that I had to go through multiple layers. The common thread was me pretending I was having a dance party in Mexico, dancing with some new friends, and that being filmed, and me posting a non-cringy unapologetic me dancing video on IG and already thinking of the reaction of some followers, already thinking of the potential attention I’d receive. It’s like another self takes over making up scenarios. It feels really lame writing this “out loud”, but I’ll leave it here. I’m sure someone else could relate? (I gotta add a side note tho: my kitchen is clean, bitches.)
I did a clay mask+apple cider vinegar+honey this evening. My skin was red and dry after, but I went innnn with the moisturizer. Now. Listen. My dance party killed all my hard work. I sweated so much, used about 3-4 paper towels to patch my face, thus my face is dry again. My hair roots still haven’t fully dried.
Today, my routine was a lil off, and I feel like my day didn’t necessarily move with a flow. I didn’t do my freewriting this am. I feel like to have a strong foundation, I need a consistent routine. And I always get frustrated when I start on the right track and stop. One day turns into another one, and another one, until I gotta push myself to start again harder. Maybe having a strong routine also entails being intentional about taking a breather and setting a max period of perhaps 24h until I go back to it? Or adjust the routine to something more realistic?
I think Imma use a face wipe to salvage the dance dryness damage. Good night.
