Or as a mermaid, whichever mystical creature floats your boat. But I went to Curacao keeping in mind that I was gonna sparkle like a unicorn. And no less. Why? Because for the past few months I had to look as normal as possible (whatever the hell that means) for job interviews. So I had to refrain from bold and long nails, crazy hair colors or outrageous hairstyles.

After being turned down so often, because of my vacation plans (which I totally understand), I felt like I needed to turn my shine on again. How? I told my braidstylist that I wanted a hidden rainbow, and my nailtech that I wanted nails to match my rainbow hair.

GIRL! These two made me feel fantabulous. I was so ready to go to Curacao and have a great time. And I did. Not how people expected me to, though. I didn’t party every night, I didn’t end up drunk every night, nor did I go shopping every day. As a matter of fact, I was flat broke. But I still enjoyed myself, on my way, with the people I wanted to.

Why don’t you take a look at what I did and where I went during my first few days on the island.

Okay, I admit…I mostly did the “eat, drink and repeat” – routine. But it was sooo good! And honestly, I did a lot more of that. But you’ll see that in the next post!
