Sock bun

After a long day at work, this starts to look really good.
No it's not tequila; it's bubbly.  Bath bubbly.  As in bubble bath.
Remember, people, this blog is G.

Today my patient told me that I was going to be a really good nurse and he wished me luck with graduating.  It made me feel good that my patients like me.  These other two patients of mine saw me leaving to go to my car today and they smiled and said hello!  They liked me too.
Secret to being a good nurse?  Taking time to yourself to unwind and relax.
This is me taking a snack break at the hospital.

New topic:
So I learned about this secret called the sock bun.  And after I learned about tit, I went to church and realized tons of the girls there were wearing sock buns.  I knew their secret! 
It was really hard at first to do the sock bun.
Here is the sock that I've had in my drawer for a few months.  I could never find it's mate so right away I thought of making this lone sock my upgraded hair tie.
After cutting the toes off, you roll up the sock.
End result just looks like a scrunchee.  Then you put your hair into a high pony tail on top of your head like so:
Now pardon the next few pictures.  I'm mostly doing this so my Mom and sister know, hence the clearasil on my face (white stuff).
It was so difficult to roll the sock up my hair... Really it got very frustrating.
Finally I succeeded. 
And this is what I looked like the next morning (with no white stuff on my face)
haha, it's like those super staged before and after shots.

So it turned out pretty cute, but honestly my hair would've looked like this anyways, only because I did the sock bun I don't have tight ringlets on the insides of my hair.  So maybe that's a plus.

I wore my hair after it had been sock curled with my new skirt and necklace.
I don't usually wear such close-necked necklaces, but this one is yellow (plus), and it's fun to try new things.  I'm also starting to try to wear lipstick but that's an on-off thing with me.

I still laugh thinking about mom opening up that bottle and us all thinking it was wine! haha Who needs a cork-screw when you got pliers?!?

I should try this sock bun thing. I am just not very good at doing my hair in styles besides a pony tail and straight. When you come here our goal can be to broaden my hair doing skills.
