Hair, birthdays, and quarter-life crises

Ok so... I am repenting am going to start blogging once a month again. Although, now, probably no one is following us anymore since it has been 8 months since my last post. Poo.

So most of you have been aware of my chameleon hair lately. First, back in August, it just had a few blonde highlights, and then I decided if I was going to "go blonde", I should just take the plunge and commit to it, so allover blonde I went. I actually kinda liked it. But of course, I got bored with it (and having to re-bleach it like once a month) and so I decided to go red. Well, I did it myself and it was really more of a, well--a sort of--orange. So then I had a friend fix it into a darker red with some brown. But I felt like a vampire, with my blessed widow's peak. So last week, I decided to go back to brown. So it was a fun six months, but I am glad to be back to plain old brown.





In other, less boring news, my friend from high school, Sharolee, just got married to another one of my good friends, Jason, and they moved in below us! It is so fun for me to have them as neighbors and we hang out with them a lot.

Let's see... I had a birthday. I am 23. Wayne and Liz and Joe all went behind everyone's back and surprised us all with a surprise Chambers family birthday lunch at Olive Garden. It was such a fun surprise!


Also, Joe and I are having quarter-life crises-- not because we are buying random stuff, but because we just both realized we have no idea what we are supposed to be doing with our lives right now. Or maybe that was why I was doing crazy things with my hair... It all started with me getting an email to go to this 4th-year student workshop for the humanities college. So-- these things are usually useful, but once you get to the 4th year one, it's like: "So... you guys have already taken the GRE and gotten into grad schools if that's your plan, or if not, you've like, already done your internships and been networking and have a job set up, right?" Like there is not much they can really help us with at this point in our college career. After several other students had shared their ambitious plans or news of making it into Vanderbilt law, this one kid raised his hand and said, " So... what if I'm graduating in April and I have no idea what I want to be when I grow up?" It was so funny, but so true to how I felt. So basically, I decided I am going to post-pone my graduation until December (it was supposed to be August) because... I'm not ready to be done with school yet, and I don't want to cram too many classes in this summer while I'm trying to simultaneously do my internship. And go to Moab. A lot.

And Joe has decided that he needs to fly again. So I think he is going to try to get his CFI (certified flight instructor) license this summer, so that will be really cool.

Look forward to another post in March! Because I am committed to the blog!

Love, Emzo
