Buckwheat Posted July 24, 2018 Author Share Posted July 24, 2018 Also, did I mention how much I still like my short hair? It was a great decision to get rid of my glorious mane, despite the fact that now I cannot pretend to be a victorious Dothraki. It is so much more practical. I just washed it a bit earlier and it is drying so quickly! Also, do dropping everywhere around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, creatively it made sense to me ... because I wanted it to happen. Well, I liked him earlier. He is currently out of my good graces. Spain must be exciting. Also, you could come to Slovenia in October! It is ... cheap. And close. Jason Momoa, eh? Why would you need him three times a week? 1 hour ago, HelenaExMachina said: “Yes I heard of Slovenia from buck but I didn’t move here because of Buck, do you get those things are different?” No hablo ing ... Ne, ne govorim angleško! Also, the guy is from a completely different cultural environment than I am. Don't know if he thinks he is behaving normally or if this is usual for him or whatever.

You cut your hair?, I love having long hair, tying it in different ways, leaving it down, I’d be lost without it, mine is comes down to a little above my waist. The only bad things are it takes a while to wash and dry and I can get comically bad bed head when I wake up . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I have 10 years to find out what's so great about 25-35 so never say never. Mine comes down to mid-back after a rather stupid intuition that made me cut like 7 inches off in April. Growing in back goes slowly. It's also frizzy AF, so I have to heat style it after every washing. If I could change anything about my hair, it would be the frizziness. It must be so nice to have hair that airdries into a smooth, soft, attractive waterfall. *.* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RhaenysBee Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Oh, I never told you all about sister's stay. Apart from two major downs, it was rather pleasant. It took her about a week to get the hang of the city, after that she became quite independent and felt rather liberated roaming around a new city without anybody bossing over her. Of course she still sees me as a 24/7 call center and live-in Siri, should any minor difficulty arise in her daily life, and does not hesitate to call upon me three to five times a day to ask me for directions (unlimited 4G and google maps are for losers), complain to me about her friends, course mates, ex boyfriend, parents and fellow public transport passangers, or simply ask me where her keys/public transport ticket are at any hour of the day. But she got on with my flatmate, comforted me when I cried over my workload and personal problems, brought me take-away dinner and learned to use the alarm system without a single phonecall for aid. On her second week she started doing things with her language course mates, going to malls and cafes, taking walks and exploring. Then her language course ended and after some minor freakout sessions, she found activities to keep herself busy. She went to some random gallery she found on the internet and stayed to chat with the owner for an hour about art, she went to modern art museum, the castle and almost made it to an art movie theatre for some French film. She has another art exhibition, taking her camera on a hill stroll and actually making it to the French film on her list for the time when she comes back for another week in August. Sister is essentially the coolest (and almost the most difficult) person I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I cut it like ... two months ago? Mine was even longer than yours is now, so it makes a huge difference. I think I shocked some people. But everybody said it was cute, apart from my grandfather, who made odd smiles and abstained from commenting. He used to say I shouldn't cut my hair. Washing and drying so quickly is honestly such a luxury to me. Yes, just come visit. Creative sense for the win. As you said, every situation. Maybe he doesn't ... IDK. Probably he actually doesn't.

HexMachina Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Admissions services at the uni are a total shambles. Gave me several days of unnecessary stress because for whatever reason they had categorised me as an international student, meaning I had been informed I owed higher fees and a £6000 deposit! After days of calling with no luck and several I replied to emails, I finally got a response tonight that it was an admin error, and a copy of my offer with the correct fees and no deposit. I think those few days of panic aged me about 50 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ugh, I feel bad for you, lukily I don't suffer from frizz much, I hate brushing my hair when it gets tangled though, always hurts!. 1 hour ago, RhaenysBee said: Oh that’s So creepy and stalky...

That's very sensible and practical thinking. I mean you can be the safest driver in the world but you can't account for other road users acting stupid or unforeseeable issues with the bike.
