However, I tend to go to sleep a little later than usual, and there's usually at least 2 or 3 people snoring away, and the combined orchestral cacophony of olfactory music tends to distract and amuse me...<br /><br />...so I become the creepy guy in the corner bunk who can't sleep and spontaneously bursts into giggling fits.lib_idolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09887547089876625807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3755770.post-55280877754906127742012-01-31T18:36:08.069+00:002012-01-31T18:36:08.069+00:00For a possible explanation of _why_ some of these ...For a possible explanation of _why_ some of these girls might be putting on makeup even while camping, see this thread: http://www.travellerspoint.com/forum.cfm?thread=80805<br /><br />Obviously such circumstances won't apply for all the people mentioned, but even if they don't, the basic concept of feeling too self-conscious might. ...Which would suck for them.Aanimalhttp://weblog.juima.org/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3755770.post-31880407615746784382012-01-31T01:02:59.171+00:002012-01-31T01:02:59.171+00:00But... aren't people supposed to look scruffy ...But... aren't people supposed to look scruffy until they've had their first cuppa of the day?Wordsmiffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00429795648577521020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3755770.post-5593130078398873122012-01-31T00:58:58.692+00:002012-01-31T00:58:58.692+00:00I've never heard myself snore so I refuse to b...I've never heard myself snore so I refuse to believe any and all reports to the contrary.Wordsmiffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00429795648577521020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3755770.post-29656886328043770822012-01-30T20:07:45.030+00:002012-01-30T20:07:45.030+00:00I only took my hair straightener when I went to De...I only took my hair straightener when I went to Denmark last year just in case Tomas and I decided to go anywhere nice. But I used it maaaaybe twice. And it was far too humid to do much good.<br /><br />As for ladies wearing make-up WHILE CAMPING, it's a bizarre phenomenon to us who don't wear make-up that often. If you're in a forest, who gives a damn? If you struggle to exist without putting it on, you may have problems.Hannah Rochellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12830775658618599966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3755770.post-80945363916602687432012-01-30T19:48:16.780+00:002012-01-30T19:48:16.780+00:00Okay, make up while camping seems a real waste of ...Okay, make up while camping seems a real waste of time and effort.<br /><br />I guess it's because I resign myself to the fact that I just can't get myself looking as awesome as usual, I'm surprised that people make an effort anyway.

Wash my face, brush my hair, swipe on some eyeliner, go. Deodorant only if pits threaten to be an issue without it. I only run into hot guys when I'm at my scruffiest, anyway.<br /><br />Captcha: icathefu.

I have *very* occasional moments of what I consider extreme girly-ness, and they would still be considered feeble attempts by most. Those moments happen less and less frequently all the time, as well.<br /><br />This also reminds me of someone at work telling me about a cross-country trip by bicycle that she took with her husband. She said at every camp site the bathrooms would be packed with women doing their hair and makeup in the morning. While camping. In the forest. wtf??Selenanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3755770.post-17072216040306293632012-01-29T20:20:52.026+00:002012-01-29T20:20:52.026+00:00Bwaha! Validated.Bwaha!
