i feel pretty...oh so pretty...

today i had my trial run of my hair and makeup. boy was it fun. i realized i'd never had anyone else do my makeup and a professional made it even better! after i paid $80 for what i thought was going to be a free consultation (or at least half price) i was a little bummed. but after i took pictures of myself so i can show the lady next time and to get second opinions from my friends i was in much better spirits. you see, i wear the least amount of makeup possible. i mean, my "foundation" is just a liquid powder and i really can't even tell when i have it on. so being this done up was a treat. of course it didn't look like glamour shots up close or anything, (you know, the 5 inch mask they put on those folks, no wonder they look so hot - the artist just built them a new face) but when i looked at the pictures i felt like it was a new me in that little camera of mine. the first thought that came to my mind was "i really can be a timberwolves dancer!". this may seem odd to some of you reading, so allow me to explain. you see i plan on trying out to be one of minnesota's nba basketball team dancers and i wondered if i would make the physical appearance cut mentioned in the tryout details. after seeing what i look like with real make up i know i can make the cut ;) now to work on the athletic appearance and ability...
