Hair cut... tattoo... needing a physical change
This has been a crazy year. So much has happened that it doesn't feel real. I've had some major, serious life changes and it's not quite September yet. Madness.
That said... I feel like I need a physical change. I don't know if anyone out there ever gets like this, but it's like I want a visual representation of all the stuff that's happened. I feel like a totally different person, but I still look the same. It just doesn't jive with me anymore.
I'd like to get a tattoo, but I'm not sure. I have a small tribal heart on my ankle that I got when I was 18. I love it for what it represents: (Connection with a dear friend, claiming my body as mine as an adult, etc). However, that was a spontaneous event. This time around, I don't know where or what I would do and that makes me wonder if I shouldn't. Piercings just don't do it for me.
I also thought about doing something dramatic with my hair. However, I have the curse of 'good hair' for the first time in my life. It's finally long enough to start doing more interesting things and it's finally all my natural hair color, which is a nice shade of blonde. It seems insane to want to mess with a good thing. That said... I'd like a change.
I don't know what else my options are.
I suppose this will pass.
