"No Emo"
Let’s start with a little tutorial on how to use this new phrase. It might not even be new, but I don’t intend on googling it.  I just plan to make it mine.

Life's a beach, or at least I smell like one →
I’m telling you ladies, this coconut powder from Lush is the lazy girl’s guide to hygiene.  How else could I possibly let my hair go a week between washings, sleep on dirty sheets, or wear the same bra for three weeks straight?  Just kidding.  Ish.  Seriously, this stuff brings all the boys to the yard.  It makes them say silly things like “Mmmm, you smell like vacation!”...
