I've been thinking about cutting my hair again. About two years ago I put it in a ponytail and hacked it off so that it was a bit above shoulder-length. I loved it, and I got so many complements. I'm just thinking that my hair has grown out really long and unruly (it's gotten wavy, and it's more than halfway down my back) and Florida summers are hot and nasty. Short hair is much more fun in the summer. I saved my old ponytail because I meant to send it to Locks of Love and never did. If I cut it again, I'll send them both ponytails. Otherwise I'd just have two ponytails lying around, and that'd be weird. And creepy.
I've definitely found a few white hairs in the past two days, and that's a little disturbing. I'm 24. I just hope it doesn't go the way of Anderson Cooper before I'm 30. It's a nice look for him, but it looks a little more out of place on a young woman. I kind of hate the thought of dying my hair just to hide that it's gone prematurely white. At least it's blonde with very light highlights, so I'm the only one to notice so far. I've always been told my hair color is really unusual and pretty, and [while I am NOT generally vain] I would hate to make it some fake bottle-blonde color. Maybe if it did go all white I would just leave it. I could style it like Chi from Chobits, haha. I don't really want to find out until I'm at least 45. ;D
I just watched "Nights in Rodanthe" a little bit ago. Bluh. It's like Nicholas Sparks wrote it while impersonating Nicholas Sparks. So many cliches. I KNEW the guy had to die in the end. Just a matter of how. Such an over-indulgent mopey sobby chick flick. It IS slightly better than any of the ones lately that have to do with weddings. Wedding-related chick flicks are the most demeaning, belittling movies to women-- they completely underestimate what a woman wants in a film and become a veritable check-list of tried and true cliches. Such garbage! I think the all-time worst I've ever seen has to be "The Wedding Date." And I know women who liked it! Even loved it! That is a real shame. Even when it comes to stories involving romance, a little realism and substance here and there doesn't hurt--it enhances the story. And the humor doesn't need to be goody-goody soccer mom or church picnic brand humor, either. Do film execs hoping to market to a primarily female audience think we are really so limited? Not all of us read those trashy harlequins with Fabio on the cover. I dare say many of us wouldn't be caught dead with one.
