Random stuff that's happened over the past few days.

...sooo.....new GBATemp layout. I like it, but it was such a sudden change. I can understand why some people don't like it, but if the changes had been implemented gradually I believe no one would have objected or hated it. It's just like Facebook's sudden changes. Everyone will get used to it and by next week there won't be any more griping.

In other news...

Chell and Alessa have already started buying Gamecube and Wii games and we don't even have a Wii yet. I don't get it. Because two of those games are Zelda games that do not have the exact same graphical style of Twilight Princess, they've been barred from playing on my friend's Wii (she hates Zelda games that don't have the graphical style of Twilight Princess, and will hate you if you own such games). So they have games sitting around and no way to play them. Hopefully we'll be getting a Wii within the next month or two, though. I'm still in the process of saving up my part of the whole deal. I shouldn't be splurging so soon after getting a job, I know, but it's not like I'm paying for the whole thing.

Also, glasses suck. I haven't had them for long, but never before in my life have I noticed my face gets REALLY oily. I have had to use my facial cleansing materials much more. It's annoying. However, I'm probably going to get contacts. At least then I'm not spending 1/4 of my day wiping my nose dry so my glasses will stay on my face.

In addition to problems with my glasses, I went to go get my highlights redone today and the stupid hairdresser went and tripped, which dumped a whole thing of hair bleach on my head. So now my hair's white. Not platinum blonde, which is my natural color, but white. As white as the color #FFFFFF. However, I told my boss the entire situation as to why my hair is white so I wouldn't have to explain tomorrow when I go in for work. He understands and won't fire me about it or when people complain about my 'wild' hair. However, he says that if it gets too bad then I'll have to wear a plain tan head scarf to hide my hair. Well, at least it'll grow out and be that wonderful little color I've been complimented over in the past.

We got some new neighbors a few days ago, too. They were a nice 3-person family...a mom, a dad, and some rebel son. I went to meet them and the son answered. He looked me into the eyes and said something along the lines of "They are not here anymore. However, if you will come in, you may have some dinner roast with me. Please, I insist. I just made it." It sounded like he had killed his parents and was preparing to eat them, so I turned around and started getting the hell out of there when his parents drove up. So.. I met them and I told them what he said, but they laughed it off as if he was harmless. I don't trust that boy. Neither do the neighborhood stray animals, from what I've seen.

So, that's all that's happened. Nothing really of note, but I just wanted to get this out. I don't really have anyone around here who wants to listen to my ramblings.

They should be thanking you for giving them that final push to buy those sunglasses they've been deciding on for so long.
 
Sounds interesting.

On the plus side of your hair getting bleached by accident, you have the following ability!

A. Ability to blind people with your hair in the sun as you mentioned before. Who knows, it might come in use!

No but really, sorry about that happening. You know to be honest though, people don't think of blue, green, purple, or even #FFFFFF white hair as being that odd anymore.

Also, I like Glasses myself. If anything I think they make a person seem more "Professional" Yes they do make your skin more oily from time to time, but I just wash my face every so often and I'm fine. Contacts are coo though, my Cousin has em. Just don't lose your contacts and you'll be fine.

Oh and I'm always game for listening to peoples ramblings, I do ramble myself sometimes.

I never thought of it that way. And hey, a friend of mine did buy some sunglasses today.

It wasn't my glasses causing this. My face is naturally oily. People have mentioned how oily my skin looked before, but I didn't realize how oily it was since I had no reason to touch my face 99% of the time.

Well if it doesn't really bother you then don't bother with it, it's just a waste of supplies.
 
Yeah, and again with the new look, those of us that like it are gonna have to remember.

"Haters gonna hate..."

But yeah, I had a coworker awhile ago that transfered that had bleached her hair white. It was actually kinda cute.

If you don't like it though I don't blame you. Either way your old color will eventually grow back in.
 
White hair is pretty hard to pull off, lol.
There are times I see it and think, "Damn, that looks good."
and other times I just made an odd face and wonder why the hell they did it.

Did you get compensation for the incident?
 
i had my glasses' temples a bit tight. but the temples are made of soft plastic like material which doesn't hurt even when very tight coz it's a teeny bit flexible. it's light too.
 
[quote name='machomuu' timestamp='1318128584'] Weren't you originally blonde? [/quote]
Platinum blonde. It wasn't much lighter than the hair color of the anime girl in my avatar, though.

My glasses fall off my nose if my face is oily.

Yes I did. They didn't charge me and the next time I go in I can get my hair cut for free.
