kraken no more

i think i look like a geek with my new hair.

nothing special, just a trim BUT I HAVE BANGS NOW and i look freaking ridiculous. like some country pumpkin. some ppl may call it 'fresh' but really, bangs is not a good look for me. i go around selfconsciously patting my fringe every few mins. goof is a doll to say i look "cute" with it in all earnest and he must be the only one in the world who thinks that way. in any case, he prefers it to the previous kraken-ish hair. it's so layered now that my hair curls in every possible direction making it look like an upside down flower. i think the newly-shorn follicles needs a few days to 'settle down'. i can cry - must every haircut be such a traumatic experience? my long hair is my security blanket.

the stylist commented that i have "flyaway" hair. alright all that knotty (naughty geddit) curlie-wurlies. boohoo, there must be some truth in it if every hairdresser i go to recommends rebonding right?

in other less hair-rifying news, i ran 3 km on tuesday and will be attempting it again tmr. gulps. i lost 1 kg from jogging so my weight's back to 55 kg again! coolness :) tmr marks the last day of work at sim. yays. can't wait to return to my nocturnal bedtime, do some blading and just veg out in front of the tv.

cors is running my life again and i can't seem to take online journo this sem which got me real stressed as i might have to do a level 5 module to replace it. you know sometimes we just seem to have a lot of freedom and choice. anyway i was feeling vexed abt it all day and finally cried it out at goof's today.

the sem ahead is turning out to be really tough. i want to be a stronger person and not bawl my eyes out each time at goof's when the deadlines loom, i cannot get what i want and feel lousy.
