Misa: Surreal Escape

All my reports are due tomorrow... So of course I'm procrastinating by posting on here!

It's just general comments I have to write... It's easy to say a kid talks to much in a nice way...but saying a kid is disruptive, argumentative and picks on other children? Then I after saying that I can't exactly say it has been a pleasure to teach them. Maybe a few cocktails will help me write them.

It's also voting day today. I can't stand politics. I understand the need for them... but I don't like to be involved in them. To be honest I'm still not 100% sure who to vote for. They all seem to be as bad as each other.

So whilst I need to write reports and walk down to the polling booth...I think I'll take a surreal escape with Misa.

When I saw the Surreal Escape collection on http://www.nailsupplies.us/ I didn't know it was a new collection, as I hadn't seen any info about it. Four polishes still made their way into my cart!

The Great Green Whatsit

This was my favourite out of the polishes I purchased. A somewhat frosty green polish that has a very cool bright blue/aqua duochrome. I found that driving was the best way to see the extreme duochrome...my fingers were at the perfect angle whilst holding the steering wheel. Though it's best not to stare at your nails too often while driving...

Phazers on Stunning

This one reminds me of Nubar Wildlife...but not as cool? I haven't actually compared them though. Green/brown/purple duochrome...just not really my cup of tea.

Shields Up

This just reminds me too much of OPI Not like the Movies (which I love). Shields up just seems like the wishy washy cousin. Yes it's pretty...but I love me some Not Like the Movies.

Below is Beyond Infinity. I messed up the layout of this post...opps! Anyway I actually quit like Beyond Infinity, it's a darker grey with blue tone. Standard really, but nice.

Misa: Wishes and Stress

I'm not good with stress. When I get stressed I tend to shut down...do nothing, hide my head in the sand. Which of course makes everything worse. It's a vicious cycle I tell you.

This time of year is crazy for me. I have two weeks to finish writing all my reports.. and these are no ordinary reports. I tell you these reports are madness. They are termed 'learning journals' and include a page of comments for reading, writing and maths... they include copies of tests and samples of students work... a page for each of the topics we have done this year... a page for PE... a page for key competencies... and a general summary page for general comments, attendance and such. By page I mean A4 size. That's at least 7 pages I have to type up for each child, not including all the tests and samples of work I need to copy. Yeah, so I have actually been adding to these learning journals through out the year...but it's still a lot of work that I need to get done.

Then my house is a mess. Mum wants me to design a brouchure for her. I'm really worried about our finances for Christmas. My class are being really naughty at the moment. I just found out I have to move classrooms next year. Education outside the classroom week is coming up. I still have quite a lot of testing to do on the kids before the end of year, but can't seem to get anything done in class as they keep playing up every time I try to get some testing done.

Wow! That's a lot of stresses...good thing I have some gorgeous spring toned polishes from the Misa Wishes collection.

Ever since I irst laid eyes on swatches of the Misa Wishes collection I wanted them. I drooled. I googled...I had no idea how to purchase these pretty polishes. Then I found http://www.nailsupplies.us/

They sell Misa polishes! I was able to get my hands on the Wishes collection at long last. I only ordered four from the collection in the end... but I love the four I ordered.

Fountain of Youth

Touch the Rainbow

Pixie Princess

Genie in this Bottle

All four polishes are such pretty pastels. Shimmery and delicate...and of course perfect for Spring. There's still a bit of Spring left...bring on Summer!
