After a long day of writing annotated bibliographies for my amazing ex-professor, Megan Sanborn Jones, it was a special treat getting on Facebook and seeing my show's trailer for the Microburst Theatre Festival. In just 8 days, The Shoelace will be performed at BYU for a paying audience, along with six other AMAZING plays written by other BYU students. You know how mega rad that is?

This weekend, I annotated 67 books, both before and after working 4 hours at Station 22. Took me 5 and a half hours, but they got done. The finished product (all of the articles and books and EVERYTHING) turned out to be 70 pages long. That's 3 months of work all in one document. Haha! I still have a few more things to do, but they're on the back burner for now. (: Tonight, Zac and I went coat shopping. We found several contenders, but in the end, I walked away with a new coat from Zumiez and we're gonna go hunting for Zac again soon!

You know what's also mega rad? Knowing your style and marching to the beat of your own drum. I like that I feel like "me" in a leather/sweater/punk-ish coat, rather than a classic trench. I like that I feel most like "me" when I'm not wearing makeup or when my hair air dries. It's just so nice figuring yourself out, even if it is what you see on the outside.

i'm a whimsical fairy, fool.

Well, as you can see, I chopped off all my hair and am quite the whimsical fairy. (:

While sitting in the chair at Shep Studio this morning, it took all of my self control not to squeal and giggle the entire time. It was such a liberating experience, having my "feminine" locks snipped away. Oddly enough, I feel more feminine and delicate with this "boyish" haircut than I ever have in my entire life. Weird? Nah. Just awesome. You know what's also awesome? This Is The End. SUCH A GOOD MOVIE. AH.

It's amazing how feminine I feel today. Granted, I just popped a pimple on my cheek, I'm doing laundry, and I have yet to shower, but a new haircut makes all the difference. :) Yesterday I went to a professional salon for the first time since I was fourteen. Growing up, my artistic and beauty obsessed older sisters had fun with my head of hair and I didn't have to pay a cent! haha I've even cut my own hair from time to time here at college (oh, goodness). 

I went to the new studio on byu's campus and got a wash, cut, and style for just $22. The whole time, I was nervous, but more nervous about making chit chat with my stylist than with what she was doing to my head. haha I just wanted to see the end result! We giggled with each other and commented on how soft my hair was after she chopped off four inches. I love feeling healthy and sometimes I worry I'm not too good to my hair (what with straightening it and letting it air dry without combing it through). But after I saw myself in the salon's mirror yesterday, my hair feels so much healthier and alive. 

As do I!

haha

Feisty.

Also, I'm going to "The Fantasticks" tonight at the Covey Center. So excited! :D
