Thoughts On... The Brazilian

Let's be honest. Times have changed. No longer do women resemble the spreads in the 1970s Playboys that you found in your grandfather's attic. We couldn't even buy a bathing suit these days that would cover up all that bush.

Girls (and guys sometimes, too) remove their hair down there for many reasons. Ovbiously, comfort is a big reason. Why would you want to feel scruffy down there when you could feel smooth as silk? The opposite sex (or same sex, depending on how you swing) is ovbiously the other major factor.

From what I know from friends stories and whatnot, most younger girls opt to shave their privates rather than wax them. It's cheaper, and saves the awkwardness of having to bear all for a complete stranger in a salon.

However, anyone that has gotten waxed knows that its totally worth it. It lasts longer, feels smoother, and looks neater. Not to mention, that breif pain you expirience on the table? Completely worth it. Those few hours of soreness will fade quickly and you will expirience weeks without shaving irritation.

But please, please, please understand something. It isn't cheap, but you certainly get what you pay for. Those at home kits? A complete waste of time, money, and quite honestly, you can really hurt yourself if you don't know what youre doing. They're innefective when it comes to removing the hair, and end up leaving a huge sticky mess in your bathroom.

Another thing. Remember when I said you get what you pay for? I'm serious, people. Don't go to some rinky dink salon just because their prices are better. You'll end up with a weird looking haircut down there. I speak from expirience. YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR.

Well, thats enough pube talk for one post. See you soon?

Thoughts On... Couples That Should Just Break Up Already!!!

I'm sure you've known a couple like this. There's usually at least one in every group of friends.

They love to hate each other. They love to argue constantly and make up about it 20 minutes later. But worst of all, they love to CONSTANTLY BITCH ABOUT IT TO THEIR FRIENDS.

You of course, the loyal friend, gets put in a predicament. Do tell your friend the truth? That you think it's time to consider other people to start dating? Or do you bite your lip and lie? And say that you think the two of them will make it, thus dragging the painfully frustrating relationship out further.

We all know the answer. Of course you end up lying. Because if you tell the truth, you'll just end up upsetting your delusional friend for not believing in their embarrassing excuse for a relationship. No matter how dysfunctional they are, they always want to be told that they'll be able to "make it work". Make it work? MAKE IT WORK??? Oh, how I fucking hate those three words. Obviously you're not meant to be together if you have to make it work. "Make It Work" is just Dysfunctional-Couple-Doublespeak for "Forcing Ourselves to be Together".

This is a message out to all you couples out there who are hanging on to each other by a thread: just end it already. If you don't have enough self-respect to do it for yourself, at least do it for your friends so they don't have to hear about it anymore. Trust me, they're thisclose to smacking you in the face.

Now, a message to all you unfortunate friends who have to deal with this shit day-in and day-out: I feel your pain. Unfortunately, as you probably already know, there's nothing you can do but fight that urge to kick their ass you feel every time they open their mouth about it. Hopefully someday, they'll see the light.

KYU Sushi Chicago: A Poor Foodie's Dream

I'd like to start off with a restaurant review for my first real post.

If you're like me and you're a bit of a sushi snob, you know the real deal from the half-assed kind of sushi. And as "contemporary" and elegant as the website (http://www.kyusushichicago.com/) makes it out to be, you'll be pleasantly surprised at the prices! I first found it on http://www.grubhub.com/ while looking for a place that could deliver me a spicy tuna roll.

When I first saw the prices, I thought there had to be a mistake. 5 dollars for a spicy tuna roll and a buck fifty for miso soup! Not to mention the 4 star reviews they received on http://www.yelp.com/ as well as others. You can call in to order or order online, but I guess I'm old fashioned and always prefer to speak with a real person to MAKE SURE they know exactly what I want.

I ordered delivery and my food arrived almost exactly when they said it would, which was nice since I live in a dorm and have to go down to the front doors to meet the delivery man. Overall, I am very pleased with my experience using KYU Sushi and would recommend it to anyone in the Chicago area. They deliver, pickup, cater and are BYOB in the restaurant located at 939 N. Ashland Avenue. Need I say more?

So...

My first post, huh. I really hate telling people about myself. It's boring.

Lets see.... I'm female. I'm in college. I'm in the City of Chicago. I like good food, partying, and my friends.

My thoughts on Obama? He's not the Messiah, so please stop acting like he is. I don't look at him as the worst president ever, but as much as his idealism raises our spirits, he isn't just pulling resources out of his ass. People who are employed, people like me, have to give up larger and larger portions of their paychecks (money WE worked for) to "government"-funded programs. And as much as I'd love to pay your mortgage, I'd like to pay off my college tuition first. I'm not being overly cynical. I just know that a solution to one problem is the start of another.

My thoughts on Drugs? Laissez-Faire. Drugs don't ruin lives, people ruin their own lives. Do I smoke weed? Yes. Have I done other drugs? Yes. I'm pretty open about that to everyone I know. I will never do crack, meth, or heroin. The drugs I have tried (and by tried I mean on occasion, non-habitually) are psychedelic in nature. I also drink regularly. I don't have an alcohol problem, nor a pot problem. I'm not sure I even believe someone can have a pot problem. Lets be honest, the people who think pot is a scary addictive problematic drug have
never done it before. It's much less harmful than alcohol.

My thoughts on sex? I think the human body is a beautiful creation of nature that should be celebrated. I'm not into "sleeping around" as people might say. But I don't think waiting till marriage makes sense these days. In ancient times, religious leaders told their people to wait until marriage mainly to prevent millions of little bastard children running around with no daddy to feed them. But with our modern advances in birth control, any smart girl should be able to express her sexuality with someone she finds deserving.

OK, that's enough offending people for one day. I respect your opinion whether or not you agree or disagree with me. Please respect mine. Goodnight.
