Fake Crystal Light and a Green Sign

The weekend is wrapping up and what a weekend it was. Friday I got lost in Carmel and then Saturday I headed back there for Power Shift Indiana 2009. This conference was an interesting experience to say the least. Instead of leaving empowered to change the world I'm disheartened and frustrated. I have smaller things like passing my classes to graduate that need to happen too. Plus, I met all these people and well, I just look into myself and wonder. Maybe it's the new haircut. One of the freshman asked me when I cut my hair so I told her my story.

In a period of six days I pierced my lip and cut off 5 inches of hair (I believe making it 15in cut off in less than a year). Each desicion came seperatly after almost a year of internal debate. These changes made it possible for me to look in the mirror each morning and finally see me in there. It wasn't who everyone else wanted me to be; it was me. Ok, I'm making a mountain out of a mole hill with the hair cut. It's cute (plus, in another 3 weeks I could have it trimmed by the fabulous Michele and it'd be back to normal).

So wether it's the cut or wether I'm not sure I can champion for what I believe in, either way- It was a interesting weekend.
