Changes

Today I am going to go from a partial blonde to a warm brown. I have been frightened by the appearance of four grey hairs, counted to precision by Trey, standing up prominently in the middle of my part. Those grey hairs are witness to what I want to deny: I am getting old, and being old in America is not a good position to be in. I was sickened when I saw a club at Armstrong named "Help, I have an old person in my class!" I thought of beautiful Ms. Judy. How could anyone be angry at her for taking the later years of her life and finding something she enjoys and doing it? We should all be so courageous. Sean says our blogs are depressing, and I guess they can be, but as I thought about it, I don't feel sorry for Ms. Judy, I feel sorry for the people that dismiss her as irrelevant. Who could be more relevant?

Besides the fact that Ms. Judy is an awsome person whom I adore, I also value her wisdom and opinions.

I can't believe there is a club on campus called that! Are they bashing old people? or just trying to be funny? Jerks.

Depressing? Healthy expressions of daily frustrations!

Send me a pic of the new warm blonde! I think it will look smashing.
