Family Ties.

            This weekend was pretty great and I learned that family is something that really needs to be looked at something that is valuable and that should never be taken advantage of. Family is not just a noun with one meaning, but a noun with a million gazillion meanings. You know why? It is because every single person alive has a different type and style family so their definition of family is going to be different. To be honest I am glad that there are so many types of families because if there was only one type of family, life would not be fun and exciting!
            If I had to pinpoint my definition of family I would say people, could be two of ten, which love each other with every ounce of there being on both the good days and those shitty days when nothing is going right. No matter what, each family has days when they get on each other’s nerves, but it is even though you are crabby you still go and give them a hug and everything is magically better, at least that is what my mom and I do. We tend to get on each other’s last nerve, but no matter what I know that she is always going to be there for me and that is the way it should be. As for my dad, he and I are not as close, but I know that he would do anything for me and all he wants to do is keep me safe and I really love that about him. My brother and I do not really talk, but I think that it is because he is at that awkward stage of the high school sophomore, so I am desperately hoping that we can build a relationship once he grows the heck up!
            Family loves and is always there for you, even if you think they aren’t. When times get tough, JUST STICK WITH IT. It will get better, it always does.

Fresh New Look For Summer

            This weekend I decided that I have been neglecting myself a little bit, so I went to get my haircut. I walked into the newer Cost Cutters by the Deer Trace strip mall with a picture of what I wanted my hair to look like. It was a much shorter cut, but I thought it would bring out my spunkiness and make me feel more confident. Plus now my hair is a lot easier to manage, which I love. When I was younger, my mom used to cut my hair really, really short and I swore that I would never go that short ever again. Now as I am growing up a bit, I am becoming too realize that shorter cuts are more mature and have the easier upkeep.
            I have had long hair, medium length hair and short hair throughout my whole life. When I was in high school I thought that the epitome of a pretty girl was having long and straight hair. So I would have my hair long and I bought a flat iron, but my hair was never like the popular girls’ hair. So I would get my hair cut, but then I realized that just because it is shorter does not mean that I cannot still straighten it and have it look gorgeous.
            With my new hair cut I straighten it and it just give a more sassy and fun and flippy look to it, which I just love to death. If I would have known that in high school that hair is just hair and it is all about what you do with it, I may have been more confident with myself. Just like style ore fashion, everyone has their own way of doing things and that is really what makes hair and fashion such a great way to express yourself.
