Small Update
Nothing new has changed - just me, a Tool-obsessed lovergirl. Heehee. (I'm sitting in a Mexican restaurant typing this on my iPhone, so please pardon any mistakes...) A Story: today I was about to do one of those 10 Things I'd Like to Say to People notes on Facebook, and I started really thinking about what my answers would be and what I would say to which people. Then I started thinking about how much I let other people affect my life - why should I have to say so many things to people? Do I have problems getting my messages across? There is one girl, whose name I won't mention, who constantly advises me to straighten my hair and says that I would look so much better with it styled like hers. I know she means no harm by it, but sometimes I feel like the only way she could ever appreciate me as a person would only be if I looked like her. I look like ME, with my hair and my face and my clothes, and I don't care if she has a problem with me or not, but I wish she would just leave me alone and let me "suffer" without her advice for the rest of the time I have to know her. I don't think she knows how much her "oh, you need to do this and this and this to fix your hair, and buy x-brand of hair solution, blah blah blah" talks have gotten to me. I hate to be rude, but... ... I guess I have a lot of pent-up rage against people that try to improve me. That's what society is, isn't it? Pressure to be our best, to look our best, etc. (Well, maybe not society itself, but the social aspect of how we lead our lives within the society.) If I lived in a box without company and still tried to lead the same kind of life that I do now, I think I'd be quite proud of a lot of things about myself that I've been pushing farther and farther away as of late. But too much pride is considered being arrogant and boastful and too little pride makes for an insecure, emotionally-unstable person. Shouldn't the middle of the two be easier to find?? The only reason why I mentioned the girl was because I've been thinking cutting my hair. I've told others that I was cutting it for myself and not because of the Straightening Debate, but I guess I can admit to myself that yes, it is because of her. I was thinking pixie short. I think I have a face that wouldn't look too butch with a short cut, but who knows. My hair is the source of a lot of my problems, believe it or not, and maybe getting rid of it would be the best thing.
I like this haircut. My hair would probably poof out a lot more with it, but what the heck. Maybe I could pull it off if my face cleared up a little bit. Proactive lies!
Ahh, and below we have Katie Holmes. I think my hair would be similar to hers if I cut it.Oh well. I hope everyone is having a great... day/week/month. Maybe saying "year" is pushing it. Who knows.
