The first thing I did when I woke up this morning was to order 2 vapes online: the Vozol 12000 puffs cool mint flavour and the strawberry raspberry cherry flavour. The latter tastes like berry-flavoured wax. It’s a bit odd because that’s the one that has been mentioned so frequently online, topping several lists. The cool mint is my “safe” flavour. I initially asked the guy to deliver to my residence but I later ended up at Gastrolounge @ Belombre, so he charged me an extra SCR 100 for the delivery. Still worth it I guess. Vozol just might be my favourite nicotine-infused disposable vape, but there was a nic-free vape I purchased in Dubai a while back and that still tops the list. I’d go nic-free if it was available here.

Shared a “Carne Libre” vegan burger with my sister while my mother had steak. We tipped the server SCR 100, which is our personal standard. Tipping in Seychelles is optional, it’s just ridiculous for servers to feel they merit a tip. It’s a job, just like any other. How are you charging customers for a job. It’s ridiculous to go to a hospital to see a doctor, be charged the hospital fees and then tip the doctor a percentage of the total cost of your medical bills, for their service. They are paid by the hospital as employees. The servers are paid by the restaurant as employees.

I shouldn’t be drinking nor eating at this hour but I’ve just been hungry lately. I’ll have a bit of a break from overeating tomorrow, because I’ll need to keep my calories low. I might do just air-fried popcorn with golden syrup for a day, plus drinks and supplements.

I straightened my hair last night, and although it’s been slightly more controlled, it still looks like wool. I don’t know if I should just cut my hair again. I can’t believe I’m this age and still trying to figure out the best hairstyle that suits me.

I’ve been getting rid of most of my clothes as I try to improve my fashion sense. The issue, is that sometimes I only have to go to town or the shop for a few minutes and it just doesn’t make sense for me to wear an entire outfit just for a few minutes. So I’m trying to figure out what I can wear that will be appropriate for such a situation. There is this thing called “Kibbe body type” that gives you a better idea of what you should wear according to your face and body type. I just found out that I’m “dramatic classic” so today I wore something considered “dramatic classic” to Gastrolounge and sure enough, I turned a few heads. I’m going to purchase an entire new wardrobe not only because I’m now M and not XL, but also because I want to wear clothes that suit me better. I always felt that turtlenecks suit me well, and now I know. The recommended casual wear would be long-sleeves and office type shorts or jeans. I should avoid baggy clothing. My makeup style should be “smokey eyes” which I have absolutely no idea how to do so I will need to figure it out.
