I had very short hair once, circa 1985 when everyone was going for the Bridgette Neilson look and spray mousse hair products were all the rage. I hated it because it was so hard to maintain so I let my hair grow. Took for freakin ever.
The shortest I had my hair since then was up to my chin shortly after my son was born. Big mistake. I looked horrible and prefer my hair being longer. It is just a PIA to keep up with concealing the pesky resistant gray hair. X-D

Could be worse - you could have a Robson & Jerome song stuck in your head
I had The Sun Always Shines on TV by A-ha in my head for about 3 days a couple of weeks ago. Still better than Robson and Jerome though ;-) .

Don't get me wrong, it's indeed not a big deal and i'm not a stalker or whatever. Was just wondering and there was just an impulse to say what i was thinking at the moment of reading that.

I'm going trough some inmens life changes. My life is changing so much at the moment that i am overwhelmed by it and i dont see any direction that i can go. I need to sort MANY issues and things out. Ive been modelling for 4 years , and this was a dream life. Fucking hard , as some of u know - but nontheless , a dream. Living in NY , London , Paris Milan Tokyo Sydney , it's all a bit sureal and now that i stopped the modelling i woke up and i have to face the facts. I thought by going to Australia i could keep on living this dream , and altho i knew it would be hard , i didnt except this to happen. I am thrown into reality - the normal world - and its hard. So i ran away to Australia.
Anyway it's time for me to get my shlt togheter , stop running for "the normal life" and just go back to Amsterdam , get a job , go to theather school or something in that direction. I have been traveling alone for so long that i dont really have a normal social life - altho i am an extremely social person. My best friends life 1000s of miles away from me and the friends i have left in Amsterdam i could count on one hand , even if i lost 3 fingers. ( Maybe that brings some understanding to why i'm on the board so often. The board is always there u know ) Dont get me wrong i feel blessed that i could do this for 4 years - it has so many positives but also negatives. So yeah it's been four lonely years too - and that makes me a bit depressed sometimes. So between now and 2 weeks i'm going back to Amsterdam. I need to build some sort of a normal life because i can feel myself being on the edge of being down - and i'm a happy person. So - Oz is ending soon. But i need to get my shlt togheter and face reality. Its not like i'm happy here so it cant get any worse. Except maybe that i will mis the beach in front of my door.
Anyway - spoke to my boss and roommate today , so its all official. All i have to do is change my flight.
And that was another extrremely dramatic post from yours truly.

I'm glad you've realized pretty quickly the steps you need to take to get things straightened out. You're strong and you're bright. You'll be fine, even if the process is scary and has some bumps along the way.
Reality sucks but it's only avoidable for so long. I do my best to subvert normality but Monday morning rolls around eventually. And so does getting on with life.

Not many people have the opportunity, or the will - but you did and you can look back on the experience and be richer for it.
Reality can suck the big one, but you keep on with it and do what you can and make the most of it. Normalcy - while it can be tedious with fewer ups and downs and excitement - is really not so bad. Boring sometimes yes. But normalcy can even be a blessing. So you go back to Amsterdam, settle into your life there, and focus not on your next ticket out but on something long term. Use your life experience to your advantage. There's nothing holding you back from realizing a long term goal and in Amsterdam you have the support of your family and the good friends you do have there.
I know you'll be OK because that's the kind of person you are. Everything falls in its place eventually.

I'm driving to work and I attempt to merge out of the on ramp to the freeway. I was doing about 60 or 65. Someone (who was very important and in a big hurry) passed me on the right. I pull out to merge into the lane on my left and lo-and-behold, there's a large white gardner's bag the size of a BEAR right on the highway, directly in front of me. It had fallen off a gardner's truck sometime earlier. I didn't even have time to swerve, and it's a good thing I didn't because I was blocked in on both sides and I would've hit someone. I thought, "oh sh!t, I'm gonna fuckin hit this thing and there ain't nothing I can do about it" and fwump! I looked in my rear view mirror, and I saw a bunch of leaves trail out from behind me, but when I didn't see large white bag, my stomach went up in knots.
I kept driving because I knew of an off ramp not too far up the freeway that had a gas station. My car starts smoking and the smell of burnt wood and electrical starts filling up my car. I turn on my hazards and a couple of people on the road were telling me to pull over. There was no way I was going to pull off to the side on the freeway because in rush hour traffic, that's pretty much certain death.
So I finally get off the freeway and I can hear scraping and the sound of plastic. I pull into a gas station and the attendant immediately comes running over. Then it starts raining. White smoke was coming out from under my hood. I turn off the ingnition, get out and inspect the damage. The bag, which was a thick white woven plastic, was all bunched up in my wheel wells. Underneath my car there were branches and leaves and some of the branches were stuck in my grill. I went to pull out some of the branches that had become one with the underside of my car. And most of those branches had thick, gnarly thorns. So I end up cutting my fingers. The attendant has me get back in the car and back up to dislodge the foliage under my car. When I slowly pulled back, I saw more branches and leaves, Then more branches and leaves - it was like an entire tree had become lodged under my car. And the poor attendant was yanking and pulling the tough branches and he tore his hands up.
But the only decent thing that came of this was that my car is OK, thank god nothing came up into my engine compartment. But it'll probably be a good idea to get my car checked out, just in case. The tree managed to yank apart my splash guard, so I'm worried about my electrical because it's been raining.
The rest of my day was shitty and busy.
The end.

Today turned out to be a good day at school. Turns out I did my kinetics assignment just fine without the calculator, figured out what I needed to do with the calculator for next time, classes were dull but alright, etc, etc.
Unfortunatley I meant to nap for about 45 minutes tonight but that became 3 1/2 hours. So now it's off to do some homework.
