  1. I started my sophomore year at my college and it's a pretty good sized school, so there are lots of lecture halls that are set up like auditoriums. So anyways I got to my class and sit down, and I swear this has been the most uncomfortable seating situation I have ever been in. I have bruises on the sides of my legs where they were almost bursting out of the sides. I know I made the girl next to me very uncomfortable, since she could feel my legs shaking. This was so embarrassing! Ugh and the worst part is that I have to do this class for my major and there are no options. I don't get sleeved until December and conveniently, that's also the end of the semester. I've just felt so low today. I just desperately want December to come. Ahhhh, sigh. Thanks for listening.
  2. I did the same thing and got scared out of my mind and was second guessing my decision. But you know what? For every horror story, there are 30 beautiful ones about people that have gotten their lives back! Just look at people's transformations, read their stories. You'll come around. Its all normal. We are all humans and we fear what we don't know. Just think about why you wanted to be sleeved in the first place.
  3. Aw that is so cool! I wish my sister would come with me and get it done but she's still in denial lol
  4. Oh. My. Gosh!!!! You look amazing!! Girl your legs are fierce I hope mine look like that after I get sleeved!!! Congrats!!
  5. I'm sorry my stupid phone didn't show the notification for this post, but did for another one. Weird. But I'm going in December to Dr. Kelly
  6. Omg you look great girl! Love the dress!!!!
  7. Lil Miss Diva has a sticky called the pouch test. You should look it up it may be helpful.
  8. This is gross but they are these bugs that bite and feed on you!!! I had them in the same exact spot. The only thing you can do is try to control the itch with benadryl and cortisone cream. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedhealth/PMH0002309/
  9. Yea I made my own clip ins. I bought the hair, clips, needle and thread. I can't use them anymore because my hair is too long
  10. They have glue dissolver at beauty stores.
  11. I'm worried about this too but I think I have a good solution... TRACKS!! Glue-ins of course. Just glue some in and your hair will look more full. I get tracks all the time!! The trick is hiding the track itself because with thin hair, the weft of the track can be thick and bulging. But to fix that all you have to do is split them right down the middle. BOOM! Thinner tracks easy to hide in thin hair!
  12. Glad you are doing so well! I hope when I get sleeved I get to relax poolside lol
  13. Pfft, she is straight-up JEALOUS! You are on your way to looking good and she is too busy criticizing you, you know, with you taking "the easy way out" and all when she should focus on herself. And you def did not overreact. This is a very personal thing and I would be mad if someone went about blurting my business on Facebook of all places. Just do you. Don't even worry about it. Haters gonna hate
  14. Girl me too! I'm glad I have time to process all of these feelings. I'm just happy that I have a buddy now!! Lol
  15. Wow i feel so bad for you guys. I barely need to shave... maybe once every week but its stubble. Thank god for my dad being Aztec! Lol
  16. Girl, you took the words right out of my mouth!
  17. Well I'm a sophomore in college, but I am not sleeved yet. What I can tell you is that many colleges constantly change their menus in order to better accommodate people that want healthier options. At my college there is a restaurant that portions their Snacks in like 3-4 oz portions. My freshman year I ate in my room ALOT. I also cooked a lot in the kitchen. Ill be sleeved in December after finals. I am taking my blender for my Protein shakes, grabbing portioned meals and snacks for lunch from the kiosk, and cooking dinner in my dorm.
