Bun there

I started apartment hunting Monday as I'm getting kicked out of residence at the end of June. Compared to when I first got here and was looking for a place, there were so many nice places. However, based on my two requirements of "in town" and "sane roommate", I've found a really nice place! It's a little two bedroom right next to main campus. My seemingly sane roommate will be a nice second year Afrikaans boy. More to come on him once I actually know his quirks :)

I've just learned that in order to take the medal test necessary to compete in ballroom dancing I'll need to put my hair in a bun. Those of you who know me (which I'm assuming is all of you), know that I don't like putting my hair up at all let alone in a way that makes it look neat. This was one of the reasons I quit ballet at the age of 5. I'm afraid this is a pretty big deterant of my future dancing career. I feel I've reached a crucial crossroads in my life...should I take the road less travelled? Should I, God forbid, wear my hair in a *shudder* bun?

Oh and remember when I told you my arm hurt was beginning to hurt less?...I fell down the stairs again. Now I have a range of motion equivalent to that of Barbie. Hopefully this will expand my career possibilities...seems to work for her!

  1. a) Maybe you should focus on the basics and get used to all this stair technology first. It seems intimidating, but it's really not that difficult. Give it a couple of years and then try your hand (or foot) at the somewhat more complicated art of dancing.

    b) Assuming that you do know how stairs work and a) is a moot point, don't dance while on the stairs - this is probably how you fell in the first place. And second place.

    c) You have nerve, asking for sane roommates.

    d) If bun, then thick rimmed glasses.

  2. a) This is probably good advice

    b) Dammit, how'd you know

    c) I know, I don't know what I was thinking

    d) I like it. I might just adapt that look
