so, like most people, I gained a little weight over the holidays (about five pounds), but i'm back to my normal eating habits so I'm sure that I will be able to lose those five pounds relatively quickly.

in other news, I just changed my hair from blonde to very dark brown (almost black)! this is a relatively big change, since I've been blonde for the last several years...has anyone else made any "big" changes to start off the New Year?

    Not exactly a start to the new year as it just happened today, but a friend of mine introduced me to a stylist-friend of hers who was more than happy to give me a new hairdo to match my current weight (see profile pic), which is way cuter than my old style (see my newsfeed if possible).

    Thank you! My friend's friend reassured me that it's supposed to get prettier as it grows, but it's not bad considering that my hair was a total rat's nest when i got sick last year. I had to make a hasty decision to chop off 90% of my God-given locks. Therefore, it got very uneven and, frankly, not presentable. Granted, my head is not exactly über-pretty now, but I believe I'll keep this style for a while!

    Love the hair colour change!!
    I've started incorporating running into my exercise. I'll be moving in a few months, so I'm downsizing all things! And been trying to budget, and plan better so instead of doing many small things, I have a few big things to look forward to. I'm going on a ski trip in a few month (first time going skiing), going to my first out of town music festival (shambhala) & just registered for my first triathlon. & after 5 years of not having a vehicle- I now do! =D
