A year ago today

Hard to believe but a year ago today it was a warm and sunny summer afternoon in Alabama for me. I had hair that was long, super curly, and always in the way basically because I had no time to care for it or even the desire to wear it town in the blistering heat. Let's face it, AL humidity and summer are just too much to wear your hair down. I was working at Outdoor Distributors; a dead end, low paying job that I was thankful to have just because I knew it was hard to get work in the small town for such a short time period. I was planning on leaving for NZ in less than 3 months and even tho I had been stashing money away in a savings account since my 16th birthday and first job at the Piggly Wiggly (even in college) it would still be nice to have some extra cash for my trip. So I sold my hair for a nice sum that covered the cost of my plane ticket and some of my pre travel medical expenses (that I ended up not needing but I digress).

  1. wonky? he he he Love it this length.. but one advantage you have, when it's long, you look great when it's pulled up into pony tail. It compliments your face like this length does.
