I am such a girl sometimes

My mother is of the opinion that my being on holidays is the best thing ever because she can leave me chirpy little notes every morning that say 'please do last night's dishes!' or 'dust the dining room!' and I have to do it. She knows that I am very easily manipulated by lists. Luckily she hasn't worked out that if she drew a little checkbox next to each item then all of my defences would be entirely shattered. Currently I am on a procrastinatory break between vacuuming the laundry and cleaning both showers, because I despise cleaning showers.

I've also been cleaning out my own room, because I own far too much stuff to take to Sydney, and in fact far too much stuff in general. I've already offloaded a lot of clothing, and last night I went through my jewellery. In conclusion: I have way too many tiny studs left over from when the only thing you were allowed to wear to school were tiny studs. I like a medium amount of dangle in my earrings! I also need more BIG necklaces. I accumulated a whole lot of dainty chain-things in high school, but now I am wearing different clothes and have shorter hair and I only have two or so necklaces that actually fill out my neckline. (I love wearing necklaces because I dislike patterned clothing and tend towards plain colours in my everyday tops, so the jewellery is what adds interest to an outfit.)

Big necklaces tend to be expensive, though; I am budgeting like a miser in a cash drought at the moment, and if any of my maternal relatives actually remember that it's my birthday* I am asking for money for medical textbooks, which I already know will cost the earth. SO NO NECKLACES, FAHYE. YOU HAVE NO NEED OF SUCH FRIPPERIES.

*Unlikely.

Wait a few years until you're in hospital and then you'll get limited in what you are able to wear jewellery-wise all over again, so don't get rid of all your small studs yet. ;->

Yeah, my mother's a GP and can't wear very long earrings because they mess with her stethoscope :) But I figure a girl needs dangle and exciting necklaces for her days off, not to mention the years of classes.

I probably won't get rid of them, though I AM rather disgusted at the number I've managed to lose over the years. ONE purple flower stud isn't a whole lot of use.

Your use of the word fripperies has MADE MY LIFE.
