My muffin top - I hid it in a giant pair of slimming undies - as I need to squeeze my self in one of my slinky pre-baby dresses.

I have tried to hide my tummy which is still bloated and a little sore after my recent surgery. I do not know how successful I have been but I have tried my best. Not sure when I will be able to reveal myself in swimwear...... x

The size and shape of my nose - I've always disliked it, too big and no defined tip to speak of. I recently learned some makeup contouring techniques to make it look thinner and shorter, with a cute little button on the end. Takes quite a bit of trial and error to find the right shading/shaping products and colours, and to not look like I have dirty stripes down either side of my shnoz, but it's working. Of course it's only an illusion, but sure beats plastic surgery!

My hair because I'd been having fun in the bushes (wink* wink*) so my crazy, curly hair was full of twigs and leaves so I looked like something out of the caveman days or maybe what eve used to look like after a rumble in the garden of eden. Anyway I had to improvise and I managed to find a scarf to put over my hair while I ran into my house and to the bathroom so no one could see.

my excitement going to gold coast. i"ll finally have a room to myself there! thank peters for that!!!!! (i usually share my room) and it"ll be the first time going there as well as going somewhere feeling like a holiday in this holiday. the only down things are i have a bad skin right now and i wish i bought my convenient gameplay along with me. i"ve hid my excitement because i was refusing to go before from the disagreement i had. now that i know i"m going for sure in a couple of days is too much to bear and so much going through my mind! i"m upset and excited.

I've been hiding Christmas presents all around the house in secret locations in the hope no little prying eyes can find the presents from Santa!

Lately, being busy with all things pre-Christmas, some birthdays and end-of-school events, I have regularly hid several different things on quite a few different occasions such as hairy legs, dry-looking heels, brightly coloured half-worn-off nail polish and a few missed 'strays' on the bikini line while having an impromptu beach swim. Gosh I sound like a mess!
The most recent thing though that I had to try to hide was my oily roots. I hadn't washed my hair for a couple of nights. (I thought it would be healthy to give my hair a break from shampoo.) So there I was busy trying to produce a smooth-running 13th birthday party, oily roots and all, when it came to 'photo time' and I suddenly remembered, 'My hair!". I'd forgot to use my dry shampoo which I was planning to use earlier before guest arrived! I had to quickly flop my hair all over to the one side and smile brightly for the photo (hoping that my oily roots would go unseen in that moment!). Thankfully the photo turned out okay and my smiling joy of the occasion shone through in the photo much more than my oily roots!

My husband has the ugliest shirt in the world (bright orange w/ purple stripes) and he loves wearing it out....I will not step out of the house if he is wearing it when I'm to go out with him. The final straw was when he wore the shirt to his work Christmas party (I didn't know) and saw the pictures of him wearing it. Anyways, I found the shirt and I've taken it and hid it where I keep all the household cleaning supplies.

My family's presents!! My brother especially is a big sneak and he searches all over for the presents. Also I've had to hide my excitement when talking about presents cos I don't want to give anything away. I can't wait to see my family and friends reactions to their presents :D

The most recent thing I hid was my partners bottle opener. I thought he had had enough to drink and it was the only way he could open his beer. Well the joke was on my because he found a way, by using the edge of a metal table.
