Sunday Morning

I dyed my hair last night, after seeing commercials for Nice ‘n Easy’s new ‘color blend technology’. I picked out the “Natural Dark Golden Brown”. Heck, maybe I got what was intended, but it’s still not the color of the swatch on the top of the box.

If this weren’t the middle of summer, the results might not be so bad. I can pull off a really dark brown in the fall and winter. But, when I’m not in direct sunlight right now… I look like I have black hair. It’s interesting.

If I redye (and I probably will), this will be the second dye job in a row that I’ve had to correct. My average isn’t looking so hot, eh?

(I’m NOT as pissed off as I seem in the picture. haha)

I Will Possess Your Heart

In the time since the last blog post, I’ve changed the theme twice. How’s that for indecisive? I just wasn’t happy with the last two themes I tweaked… they were clean and simple, but there was always an issue I couldn’t work out or an aspect I wasn’t digging. This one, I think, is a keeper. I may (or may not) go back later and add a bit of color. Time and motivation will tell.

I received an email today letting me know my financial aid at USC had been determined, which I suppose means I was accepted? I wouldn’t know - I haven’t received a letter in the mail yet. I logged into the University intranet to look at the financial aid award… let’s just say the private college was MUCH better in that regard. This is partly due to the fact that I’d missed all of the scholarship deadlines because I had to apply so late.
