I had decided very last minute to cut all my hair off. The shaved side was growing out and I had dyed it blonde so the growing out process would look better.
i was getting tired of dying and redying/bleaching it when the roots grew out though..and increasingly over time it would get oranger and oranger….so i decided to fix the problem (and my damaged long hair) by just chopping it all off. I googled “best asian salon in dc area” and ozuki came up. i immediately called and made an appointment for the next available time .
the day rolls around and Annie and i went to ozuki salon in georgetown to get our ‘dos. she got layers and i got an ai takahashi inspired cut! my stylist, keiko, did a wonderful job =D
My new hair is longer in the back and shorter in the front, with lots and lots of layers and thick straight bangs. i usually put wax in it but lately i’ve been lazy, so it just lies flat except for the back where it does weird standing up things (cause my hair is naturally wavy).

this was immediately after
and then a couple days later
and then fairly recently…..(at shirleys bday dinner at congee village)
and then even more recently…..
Sometimes i feel like with my short hair its harder to feel sexy. I can’t hide behind it, toss it, have it flowing in the wind, or whatever else action we take for granted when we have long hair. i miss my long hair a lot, and it will take years for it to grow back as long as it was x___x i also can’t wear some of the same things i used to be able to wear; some dresses or outfits just look bad with my hair. it’s weird, but trust me, it really does look awkward!
oh well, there’s also a lot more i can do with my short hair & i can style it up lots of different ways! im glad i did it…there’s no turning back anyway 
I thought I’d make a list of some…

While complaining about having to go back to another semester of books and writing, one of the best advice I got from my friend when I first got back was to get married. We laughed b/c shes happily engaged and the thought did cross my mind, “wouldn’t it be easier to just get married, quit school, have adorable (hopefully) children and pursue what i love w/o an overrated college degree?” But the reality is I’m nowhere near able to engage in such a huge commitment as I have so much more growing to do. I guess only some of us can be so lucky . But anyhoooo, I’m Buddhist by the way, my mother’s adopted son (a monk) had stopped by so I dug up some of my astrological readings done at birth and asked him to translate it. The tradition in Bhutan is to get a “Ke Tshe” done when a baby is born to foresee any turmoils and to advise religious rituals (to the parents) to prevent possible danger to their kid’s life. So it turns out that if I were to become religious later in life OR become a nun, I’ll lead a very prosperous and successful life when I’m reborn. I used to make jokes about becoming a nun b/c there was a nunnery right above my best friend’s house but I never knew it was a potential path written down in my birth. Now here comes the funny part, my dad’s friend had done numerology readings for my sisters and I.. and in that reading it predicted my marriage age to be 19, 21-22… I’m going to be celebrating my 2nd annual 21st in November and I’m very single so the odds are pretty obvious lol.
Of course, while I do have faith in my religion I don’t blindly follow my faith… I just thought it was hilarious and kinda eerie because of the accurateness of my personality and the trials and tribulations I’ve faced. Maybe I’ll post the numerology reading on the blog since thats in English, the other one is sanskrit so that’ll be a tough one to deal with. That might be lil egocentric but it’ll be interesting to share with people who are into that kinda stuff
On a random note, as usual, here are my adorbs nephews who are making it unbearable to leave day by day. Both are spitting images of their madres. They insisted on clipping their lil sister’s bows on their heads ^^ :
