life has no beginning

I'm suddenly addicted to these paper lotion moisture face masks, even though I can't read the package and rarely know exactly what I'm putting on my face. So far, so good.

That's what's in those packets. They were a hundred yen each so I thought I'd try them out and see if my face dies. And that yellow bottle is MOIST HAIR MILK. I am always so happy when I smell like my idealized vision of an elegant old Japanese grandmother -- recently I realized the people who tend to be smelling my hair here might not find that so delightful. Fuck 'em.

so, there is a pillowcase on the bed next to the pillow, but i was too lazy to work that out so i just put a sheet over the pillow instead. how lazy makes me a loser?

Oh! I love those face masks! I got a green tea one at Tokyu Hands the last time I was in Japan and I got one for my sister. Pearl, I think. I didn't use it until we got back here to the US and guess what. No moist face mask sheets in the US. ANYWHERE.

I almost got the pearl one! But I just got green tea and seaweed. I can't really tell the difference. Anyway they're so cheap but they feel awesome. I want to get some of the nicer ones.
