Emo Hair






Indeed, it is true. My hair has become short and black and partially in my eyes. But don't worry, I'm not emo. Although, every time I look in the mirror I do have to fight the urge to look very serious and depressed. What can I say? I enjoy being theatrical.




The Story:




So, I'd been meaning to do something crazy to my hair before I leave for a long time... but it seemed like I was never going to get around to it. A couple days ago I just decided to go for it. Cut it all off and dye it black and reddish and everything. Now I look emo. And that's fine. I like pulling the ol' "shock and awe" before I move away from anywhere anyway. Bwahaha.

Fake Mountains



A couple of days ago I went on a trip to the Adirondacks for a day with my Seth friend. The mountains were a lot more real than I thought they would be. (I was under the impression that they'd just be really tall hills.)
They were actually much like Utah mountains... once you got onto the trails... just a little smaller looking and less rocky. Beautiful waterfalls and lakes, though.
At one point on the way there we passed through this really creepy town. It had this mysterious abandoned feel to it. There was even a run-down factory that was obviously no longer in use. But we had a ton of fun. I highly reccommend a visit to the Adirondacks. I wish we could have gone for longer than a day. Stunningly beautiful.
