After the conversation with my aunt (as you know, such a memorable event happened not that long ago), I suddenly felt an urge to change something in my life. You know how if you are depressed or just in a bad mood for a long period of time, then you feel like changing something around you? Well, I think that the conversation was such a shock for me that it was enough to make me want to change something. So, I looked at myself in the mirror. I’m ok, I think, if I sleep and eat enough. But…one thing kept bothering me, and it was my mascara. Mascara (!!!), you would say? Yes, precisely. See, I’ve always been wanting to have hugely long eyelashes, just like actresses in Hollywood or just models on the covers of popular magazines. I love my mascara, but sometimes it’s just not enough for me. So I thought, what would my eyes look like if my eyelashes were even longer?? A long time ago, in middle school, my best friend told me that if a girl cuts her eyelashes regularly, then they grow much better. Well, we did (I mean, she and I). I haven’t seen her in a long time, but I doubt that mine grew much better after I cut them. I mean, now they’re long, but would they have been longer if I did not cut them in 7th grade?? (if you know the answer to this question, my contact info is somewhere here…in the profile, I mean). So, back to the eyelashes.

            A drastic idea came to my head suddenly! What if I try eyelash extensions? I have heard about those, but I do not really know what they are and how they work. Do they just “stick” to your eyes with the eyelash adhesive, or does a specialist have to physically attach them to every single eyelash that I have (I am thinking of hair extensions here)? As always, go Google! After searching for “eyelash extensions” and reading a bit, I figured that they are just like a string of lashes that attach to the eyelid with special eyelash adhesive glue. So, basically, they are like false eyelashes. Sounds intriguing! What I love most about this idea, though, is that the change is not permanent. Like, if I mess up, then I can just take those lash extensions out (or, away), and that’s it! So, should I do it??
