Chop chop.

Okay so after everything that has happened the last little while, I really felt like I needed a change. Not a simple change like painting my nails, or rearranging my room. Something a little more drastic. A little more permanent. And if I had done this in high school, I would have balled my eyes out. But right now, I feel pretty dang good. 

I cut my hair off. A seven inch difference. 

And I know, I know. What's the big deal? 

Well I was SUPER attached to my hair. In a way, it defined me. But I also felt like it hid me. And to be honest, a big reason I kept my hair long (for like a decade) was because everyone told me to NEVER cut it and how pretty it was, and how boys liked long hair better. Blah blah blah. So I kept it. 

And then this week I cut it. Soooo refreshing. It's just so nice to have a change and say goodbye to the "old you"--even though nothing has really changed. 

And Dean told me I looked like a Romney. I think he meant to say I looked political--which is fitting because this week I'm officially declaring my major in political science. 

Cheers to short hair and politics.
