Green hair Diary # 2

Well My grandparents and Brian and Candice now have seen my hair. Weirdly Paul and Celeste who live the closest have not seen my hair, but they have been sick. Anyways my grandparents more of pointed out it is green and they did so at very different times. They seemed to have no problem with it or they did not voice one. My Aunt Louise said something about it to ... probably why. Because my new number one hair comment is

Why green

or simply

Why

This is what Brian, Louise, and countless other people have asked me when they finally see my hair. Well why hmmm.... my answer shortens each time. Now I say I wanted to but really I just felt like having fun with it and this brand had a beautiful green. Honestly i love it very much!

Sadly....

My hair is now more blond than green. Slowly the blond tips are going up my hair....well actually its not so slow. I need to re-dye it. However it was done with professional hair dye and when I ask my friends they give me the run around. This is not something to do with hair dye problems! I dislike the blond green look very much, though i was told by a guy last night to go swim in a highly chlorinated pool. uh... thanks for trying.

So I somehow need to get the green chartreuse looking color from Pravana. I need someone to help me put it back in my hair. I have developer I think all I need is the dye and willing abled gloved hands to help me.

So my readers if you know anyone with such a license and abilities let me know! My friends are just flaking out on me in my time of blond ugliness!!

Snow in June!!

Just realized I did not post about my week long Kansas trip but yet my Utah weekend vacation is demanding me to write!

My mom and I went off on an adventure this weekend to Cedar City, Panguitch, and St. George. My brother lives in Cedar so that is where we stayed. But the reason we went this weekend was because of the Quilt fair in Panguitch. lol it makes me laugh that i go to these cheesy things. But I think it is not the quilt show that is cheesy but the people who attend. I mean a woman so proud of the rabbits she hand stitched on her sweatshirt....uh.... and the woman who quilted her skirt... approaching cute but really?? but yet they dont get that excited over the door prizes. Free stuff people!!! lol it was all very interesting. Did we buy something??? heck yes! they had such cute quilts and fabric and i saw this one quilt I had to get the pattern for. Well we left and saw my brothers store in town, ate pizza and head home in the rain. Brian had told me to take this road around panguitch lake and Brian Head. um.... I really dont like following his instructions no more! It snowed!!! when I saw slush on the road at a low point I stopped the car and freaked but kept going. Candice, who I now know is a liar, knew that if there was slush there there was snow at the top. She told me none of this and tried to convince me all of this was left over from winter and frost from the cold night before. Um Candice there is snow on my windshield!!!! Then turned a corner BAMM!!!!!!! everything is white! I was flabbergasted!! Its june!!! its snowing!!!!! Holy crud i am driving in it!!!!!! i did well but I drove slow as molasses!!! Because there were so many dangerous winding turns. Did stop at one point and take pictures. Oh goodness now I am back in Phoenix and its so not winter!

Green Hair Diary #1

While in beautiful Kansas I streaked my hair with a beautiful green. It is however fading at the ends and I fear slowly going back to the bleached blond underneath. Until then the fun of green hair continues. I love the looks and conversation that comes from my hair. Need an ice breaker? Put green in your hair! lol okay that could be a bit rash for most of you, but I promise it works. The first day i was back in Phoenix I went to the chiropractor and these two little kids kept coming into my room to look at me. I was laughing. The most common comments are:

It is not St. Patricks day (or some variation)

What does your mother think?

Why did you do that?

I LOVE it!!! both the color and the cut!

The last is my favorite of course. My neighbor who i had not really muttered many words to, but my parents know her and her family well, started talking to me every time I come home because she really loves my hair. I think we could be good friends. :)

Sister Burns really made me laugh. She told me that she loved the cut but the green has got to go! lol. She has told me several times. It makes me laugh!!

Sometimes I feel judged, like people expect me to be a certain type of person. But this also opens up my eyes to what judging really is and that is ridiculous!

I love love love my green hair! Pictures will come soon just as soon as i can get a good one. I dont take pictures of myself very well so i will need someones assistance.

Bro. Woodward

Today a great man past away. Today i just keep thinking about the times I spent around him. i am trying hard not to shed tears but by the end of today it will happen. He touched every one in my family's hearts and lives. I will always remember his hugs, his love for me and so many others, along with his great testimony. He was someone who smiled and made you feel so much love when he was around you. He loved his wife and his family so much and I think I can include his YSA children in that. He was a wonderful man who will forever hold a place in my heart. Thank you Woodward family for letting us have him for so long and thank you Brother Woodward for caring about us and supporting us.

GPA

So i just finished my second to last semester at ASU and i got all A's and one B+ (meaning I was like a few points away from an A. Stink!) ! But I got my GPA up to a 3.45 and that is my whole college career! I mean who did not do a little cruddy their freshman year? i know I did. I never cared about my GPA as long as it did not get near that I could lose my scholarship point, but now I get to graduate with honors. It is the lowest rank of honors but goodness who cares!!! I get to get a maroon cord to wear with my cap and gown. I am really excited that I am graduating with honors for having a pretty decent GPA! I am very proud of myself right now. GO me!!

Amazing day!

Notice much that most of my amazing days involve going to the temple? Ya i think there is a pattern. Today i hung out with Brian, Candice, and Landon. Went to Jillian and Brian's Wedding reception and it was so fun! Went to the temple. Always good! Went home with Cheryl and had a heart to heart fabulous convo! Came home and asked my mom if she would go to a movie with me! Mom and daughter date night! Saw letters to Juliet! Fabulous!! completely clean!!! Sorry I am writing weird i am just so happy right now and I had some hard days recently and I just needed this and feel so fulfilled and great! It is good to know days like these still happen. Heavenly Father shows us we can make it by giving us days like today! I am grateful! Everything works out the way it is planned. In a couple days i am going to Kansas to visit my family and i am so excited! Scared a tad because I have not been to an airport to fly since I was 14 and uh there are tornadoes in KC but um I think i will be okay!!! Oh and I get a certificate from Institute Sunday! yay! I am just good today. I might be having hard days again soon, but you got to write about days like today to remember and look forward to the fabulous days of the future.

lots of love!
