Fucking hell, talk about itchy fingers! Four months after my attempt to give myself a haircut (and failing miserably: my hair is still uneven by 2 inches on one side), here I am again, fighting the urge to chop my hair off. I was mumbling my desire to give myself another haircut an hour ago, then started looking for pictures online to inspire me. Afterwards, predictably, the idea started to seem more and more brilliant that I dug out my thinning scissors (yes! I found them!) and started to measure how short I wanted my hair to be.

At the first strains of expressing my desire to “even out” my hair, Julien exhibited A) Suspicion, B) Skepticism, C) Forced Nonchalance and D) Panic. Just as I was about to make the first snip, he lunged at me, hustled me to the guest room, shook me by the shoulders and cried out, quite seriously and almost hysterically: “You think you can do these things, but you can’t, Nemo!”

    You can do it little Nemo…you can chop your hair off as you wish & send us all a photo. You can do it.

    Finally, you found the thinning scissors :D ! I am impressed you can cut your hair by yourself, Kala baka puede akong pagupit sa yo ? Practice your hair cutting talent with me, I will be fine !

    Makis > Hmm, I don’t think Julien will appreciate your encouragement, but I do, that’s why we’re friends :D

    Haze > I can only cut my own hair, for some reason. But if you really insist, well, I will not be held responsible *handshake*

    ana > Oo nga eh! Ganun pala ang frustration na na-feel ng tatay ni Nemo…
