Upper Class Clohing
Dear Journal,
This morning when I woke up I took my bath in baking soda as usual and rubbed a new kind of perfume into my skin. I got it at the market last week. My mother came in with my new black wig which was freshly brushed and washed, she added some fake braids to it. My father came in my room with a present for me in one hand and his bronze razor in the other [he just came in the middle of shaving.] I opened the package excitedly wondering what it could be. O My Rah!! He got me that linen dress that was on sale at the market. Oh, it was a beautiful dress with blue bands that held it up at the shoulders.
On my way to the beauty saloon I stopped by Nile's Wonders [a jewelry store] and they had this wonderful new necklace and bracelet that matched. In the beauty saloon I got my eyes darkened with this new seaweed green paint, I also got my nails stained with fresh henna. My lips and cheeks got henna rubbed into them to make them have a rosier texture. Next I was tattooed from the arms up in this kind of flower.
I decided to take a walk with my friends, My best friend got a new linen two piece, the skirt came up to her calves . Journal I had such a great day today! I hope that tomorrow my dad will give me another gift.
