Sharing our vanity
Tina and I really surprised each other when we met up in Canada just recently. Without mentioning it to each other, we independently decided to have a massive haircut and did it within 2-3 days of each other. But the similarities didn't end there. Here's what we also had in common:
- Our last real haircut was in 2002 when we participated in Queen's Cut.
- We both had our hair chopped in a city other than where we lived: she lives in North York and had her hair cut in Ottawa, I live in Philly and had my hair cut in Thornhill.
- We both like our long hair look better. MUCH BETTER. But we think that it's good to shed the vanity.
- We both agree that we are much happier letting a kid have our hair than hoarding it on our own head.
- We both donated our hair to Angel Hair for Kids :)
AND...
- We both wanted to watch Elizabethtown (which we did). Tina had more personal and noble reasons to watch it while I just wanted to see it because Orlando Bloom is cute!
- Did I also mention that we are extremely sophisticated, incredibly refined, and exude a level of maturity that exceeds our years?
Oops, wrong picture!
This is the picture that I meant to show... please erase the previous one from your memory :P

There was one notable difference between us, which I feel compelled to report to avoid being called biased and unscientific for selectively writing about our similarities only.
As clearly illustrated by the picture on the left... Tina was more generous with her donation than I was.
Note Tina's beautiful, full, voluptuous and silky hair on the right and my puny little ratty hair on the left :( Her hair was three times thicker than mine! THREE TIMES!
PPS I don't know about Tina, but I've never had people comment so much on my hair before:
- Wait... Agueda... hmmm... did you... get a haircut?
- Did you get a haircut so that people wouldn't recognize you at the border? (in reference to my visa denial)
- AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH
- Oh my gosh! I thought Mike hired a new person.
- You look older! :)
- No she does not! :(
- ... (this is the really sad one. One of the little boys from church won't talk to me anymore!! He told his mom that he didn't "recognize" my haircut)

hehe... i was the anonymous person. yuppers. So, in answer to the question you asked. California's weather is up's and downs. It's either rainy, windy, or just plain chilly with the cloudless ( or cloudy) blue weather... plus radiant rare sunsets. Yup. So in general, i think that winter in California is as pretty as it is in the summer. yuppers.
You should post more often..... blah.
Haha, the rain here in California doesn't only make the roads wet and slippery, it makes you feel like you've just taken a bath with your clothes on. That bad. yuppers. It's stopped raining, just gotten a little bit over cold here. Hehe, your "big" little brother thinks Hermoine's hot. THat's a first for me, i've only heard she's pretty. My friend says it's because they all grew up.
