hey good-looking
Today I found myself at a salon with Mavis (which is far less remarkable than it sounds because we had made an appointment and everything, but hush let me continue), and suddenly everything has changed.

Okay no, not really, but BEHOLD!

Prior to this hair-changing experience:



Post-hair-changing experience:



Yes, it is kind of pink, and anime-like, not unlike that time I cosplayed with Andrea and Sam


which I suppose is a little surreal now, that I'm going to have this colour for most of the time (I'm almost tempted to go schoolgirl rather exclusively, which is just a little tragic is all) but I'm hoping it will fade significantly into something more like this



on the right, and while we're hoping for the best maybe I'll fade into Alyson Hannigan generally while I'm at it, damn that girl is fine.

Anyway, thoughts? Should I do things with my hair, like tie it up in ribbons and perhaps wear an elaborate, ridiculous-looking and impractically slutty space ninja-type costume? Should I invest in hats, do a Demi Moore, or just pray generally that it fades just right so I can be taken seriously (hoho!)?

Ugh, speaking of serious things, I've got to seriously devote some more time into ignoring corporate law, oh ugh. Which I shall do (more or less) promptly (more less than more).

Edit: Well, my hair seems to have a life of its own - now it has decided on a markedly different colour and I can do naught but watch it go forth and fulfill its destiny. For the moment I seem to be almost certifiably a redhead (or as certified as a Chinese girl can get anyway).

Please to ignore unglamorous piratey sleepwear and face, in different lighting conditions (my bedroom vs the bathroom, which is clear from the towels).



My, what an adventure! Will I wake up tomorrow a different person, with a different hair colour? Who can tell?

Edit: The next day it seems to be just as red, if not slightly redder (or perhaps I'm just in brighter lighting)? Okay yes, I know this is far from endlessly exciting, and it is a bit indulgent but I'm sorry!

LOL it's now turned redder - who knows what colour it will be next?!

Ooh, what colour will you streak it, and how long do you need it to be before you do any streaking? (hoho!)

Haha PINK PLS. Lol did you bleach it?

I'd want red- hence STREAKS, not dyeing the whole damn head. Just like what I did hmm was it a year ago? How long do I want it to be.. I don't know, but probably gonna do it just before my 21st birthday :) My hair seems to be growing out pretty fast, YAY

LOL no, it's just dyed generally? I think it's going to get a lot duller though.

Ooh, that sounds lovely! Yeah I think I remember that, it was really cute! Yeah actually I figured I'd do it before my 21st, which is not all that far off. When's your birthday?

your hair is so long! the color...has potential. i'm going to have to wait this one out until it makes up its mind as to what shade it's going to be. the cut is cute though.

LOL thanks! Yeah, it sometimes surprises me how long it is - I've been growing it out forever, it seems!

Hey what have you been up to, recently? I've seen all your wonderful pictures, but at this point I really have no idea! How are you and things?

buuuuuuuuuuuusy, lol. i ought to do a real update at some point but a lot of it is "business school is hard, there is a lot of annoying and seemingly insignificant math because honestly, what's a couple zeros on a financial document anyway??" except it's sort of a big deal? :/ but i am doing some fun things outside of class so maybe i'll write about them instead. :)

how's the hair now?

Ooh, how many more years of school do you have? Ugh, math! I'm so glad I'm not doing Math! Yes, please write about your non-school adventures! And put up pictures of your new hair please!

When I'm outdoors it's like my head's on fire! But apart from that it's darkening significantly, and the purple's coming out a bit more?

just one! and a quarter? half a semester is a quarter, roughly, right?

haha, it's sort of not so bad? depends on how I feel at the moment and the math in question. I do a lot of proportional math or plug-n-chug formulas, nothing earth-shatteringly difficult.

you've seen the hair, silly, but i do have a bunch of outfit posts and a photo friday that I COMPLETELY missed. :/ BAD BLOGGER, NO COOKIE. but what about yours! i want to see this purple!

Which one were you? Yuki Nagato? Or Mikuru. It's probably Mikuru, isn't it.
