Hair

I got my haircut yesterday. Nothing drastic, just a trim. I am in the process of growing it out to donate it to Locks of Love for my second time. When I get my haircut, I like to have my hairstylist blow it out straight, it is luxury since I hate trying to do it on my own. So about once every two months, I have straight hair for a couple days. It is a nice change; I like my hair both straight and curly. However, I am finding that when it is straight I get twice the attention from the opposite sex. So it made me wonder, do guys like straight hair better than curly? I already know my dad doesn't like my hair straight, he said it doesn't look like me, but he seems to be in the minority when it comes to guys, at least from what I have noticed. And if guys do like straight hair better, oh well, I guess I will get less attention then (which is fine by me). I am not about to spend the 30 minutes it would take me each day to straighten it. So I will enjoy my straight hair once every couple months and stick with my curly hair, which, as I have heard several times from women in the past few weeks, is beautiful and I am lucky to have. And usually I agree.

It may not be the hair itself that the boys are attracted to, it could be how you present yourself with the straight hair. Since it's a treat to have straight hair, you may stand up taller, smile more, have a bounce in your step that boys make pick up on... since you're not "the usual you."

I've never seen you with straight hair... I can't imagine how you would look. I think that's awesome that you donate your hair to Locks of Love. If I had any courage, I'd do it. :)

Cass, you should have posted your picture. You look so cute!!! I bet girl of approval is correct - you carry yourself differenly and more confidently when you have straight hair. Try it someday with curly hair and see how it goes.... report back too, of course.

I think your blog needs more pictures of yours.

Thought of putting the picture on of me, but not sure that I want my picture connected to my blog for security purposes. And I am sure that is the case with the straight hair, I will try to carry myself with confidence with curly hair. I will start adding some pics, but all of my good ones are too big for the site, I have tried.

"Absence makes the heart grow fonder"

I was always a bit skeptic of this phrase. How can being away from a person make you fonder? With time, you will slowly start to forget the sound of their laughter and the scent of their hair. You will forget the way they dance and the way they like their toast. Sure, when you see them again, when they laugh or dance, all those things come rushing back. Being away may make you yearn for them, but you no longer know them as well as you used to. At least that is what I used to think. I should have know this phrase was true since whenever I would see my sisters again, it was like no time had passed. I don't know what it was that made me realize all that I took for granted, maybe it is being away from home for so long or my travel mishaps or my friend's car accident or maybe just that I am getting older, something made me see how I took everything for granted in my life before I came here. It was so easy, I could go up the stairs or across the hall or get in my car and spend a day ...

I Heart The Office!

Image
My sister introduced me to the television show The Office . And I heart it. I saw Seasons 1 and 2 on dvd in the past week (I watched all of Season 2 between last night and today). The only problem now is that they are half way through Season 3, so I have missed several episodes and it won't come out on dvd until at least this summer... hmm, problem. But you want to know the one thing I heart even more than The Office ? Jim Halpert/John Krasinski (character/actor). He is on the show and I have a huge crush on him. I know what you are saying, you are 25 years old (turning 26 in 2 1/2 months) and crushes on famous people at this age is a little weird, and usually I would agree. It has been many years since I have had a crush on a star. But Jim/John is so an exception. In fact, if I could find a real life guy here in Minnecrap that looks like Jim/John, makes the same facial expressions, has the same sense of humor and is as nice, sweet and kind as him, so basically exactly like Jim/J...

All you need is love?

This is a question people have asked for a long time. Is it true? Is love all we really need? I think it would depend on who you ask. When it comes to young children, love is all you need. You know your parents love you and spend time with you, that is what is most important to a child. You don't understand the importance of money or work or health, all that matters is love. Maybe that is what is so appealing about childhood, why we would all do anything to go back, because we were innocent and love really was what made the world go round. As an adult, I now see things differently. Love isn't all there is, we need so much more. Some would say that makes me cynnical, but I am not. I want to believe that love is all we need and for the most part I agree with that statement, however I see that there is a lot more that goes along with love. As a parent, your role is not only to love, but to protect, comfort, support, provide, but common sense says that those things automatically go...
