if you write it, will they come?
I'm writing words, you are reading them. Hmm, the direction of this blog...I'm not so sure I have one nor a desire for one. I'm gonna ramble; I'm gonna advise; I'm gonna reflect; I'm gonna bullshit. I study psych; I travel by subway and yellows. I succumb to the small talk of the weather. I people watch. I laugh...EVERYDAY. Likes: smart people!! funny people!! sarcasm, music I can dance to, music I can sing with, music that makes me think, music that lights candles ;) playing in the park afterhours [the only way u won't look like a pedophile jkjk (well not really lol)] natural hair and skin care, natgeo, family guy, the colbert report, reading, history, psychology, shoes, vegan food, people watching =) I party now and again, maybe sip on something ;-) Dislikes: celery sans bleu cheese (ranch will suffice), deadlines, smokers, when my metrocard expires =(, arrogance, ppl playing music in public w/o headphones ugh, capitalism. The lists ofcourse could be way longer. Tumbling along
I haven’t really been active on Tumblr for 2 reasons. I’m no longer working the same work schedule so it has altered my leisure computer time AND school got INTENSO so I needed to focus! I’m almost done with finals though WOOHOO so expect my return =D. ANY-HWAY, this post is about my hair. Every few weeks or so, I get the urge to do something new and unexpected with my hair. I usually let the feeling pass begrudgingly and keep it pushing with the health and consistent natural process. But this time……………………………….(yes I needed that many ellipsis NO!!! NOT I SAID THE CAT! I straightened ( like for real for real straightened) my shabang, l cut off about 4 inches of length annndd threw some awesome layers in my head (all by myself) MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA. I know AAAHHHH, the heat! THE ENEMY!!! BUT I’m tired of being scared. If it gets damaged, I got an excuse to try a new style and grow it back. I’m not trying to damage my hair. I went about straightening it safely; I just miss hair journeys. This is my first time straight in over 2 years and before that one time…son, it’s been a while. I just needed a few days of new. I got a whole lot of “I didn’t recognize you’s” which makes me wonder if my hair is more distinguished than my face. I got some compliments and some protesters. Thats the usual though lol.
Well…………………next stop
DYE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yes, you read right. I won’t tell you my exact plans but if it all breaks off then I get to do a cute short cut MWAHAHAHA WIN WIN. I gotta allow myself time to screw around. I went from wash and sets and basically daily flat iron maintenance from 11to 17yrs old, effed around a lil back and forth until I eventually cut off all the straight and damaged pieces. I did one or two cute cuts and dye jobs since, but it was still years ago and sometimes I get so bored. I am no longer a natural hair punk. I love the health of my hair now and all the styles I do but I can’t fear hair change. I’m embracing diversity and versatility. Pics to come =)
