What I did this weekend...

This was my hair on Wednesday.

And this was my hair on Thursday.

As a Libra, I suffer from severe indecisiveness, but I decided that since I turned 21 recently it was time for a change. I've had long hair for about 3 years now, and as much as I loved it it was quite the challenge to maintain. With school practically doing me in the butt, I need as much simplicity in my life as possible right now. Hence, the short hair. Plus my hairdresser gave me the name of a charity that I can donate my hair to, Angel Hair for Kids, they make and donate wigs to children who can't afford them. So I'll be mailing them a 12 inch braid in the next week. Apparently it takes about 8 braids to make a wig. Craaazy.

Pretty!

As I was putting up my last post, Graeme surprised me with another early (this time much less so) birthday present. My birthday is tomorrow, so I guess he just couldn't wait any longer, which I thought was super cute. I hastily snapped a few photo booth shots of it so I could show off how awesome my boyfriend is, but was kind of unsuccessful in showing the necklace's true greatness, so I just found an image of it on the store's website.

I've taken a shine to owl's in the past year, they're really strange and amazing creatures. Plus they look a lot like bird versions of cats, and I really like cats, so... I've also been crocheting amigurumi owls like mad, as of late. They're a fun way to impress your friends, even though they're not that difficult to make. I thank this book for that. Yay for Graeme, and for owls, and for cute necklace representations of them!

4x5 Landscape

Shot with a 4x5 camera on a rural road in Nobel, Ontario, a few minutes away from Killbear Provincial Park. I had to size it down for blogger, which doesn't do the image any justice. The proportions that a 4x5 negative can be blown up to are preposterous. You could cover your bedroom wall if you wanted.
