TROPICS ON MY MIND

Tropics on my mind

12.31.11

So, I just got my hair dyed Ocean Blue yesterday.

But first, a picture story about my hair over the years, along with this relatable song by GaGa...

WHENEVER I'M DRESSED COOL, MY PARENTS PUT UP A FIGHT.
AND IF I'M A HOTSHOT, MAMA CUT MY HAIR AT NIGHT...

AND IN THE MORNING,
I'M SHORT OF MY IDENTITY.
I SCREAM: “MOM AND DAD, WHY CAN'T I BE WHO I WANNA BE?!”

I JUST WANNA BE MYSELF,
AND I WANT YOU TO LOVE ME FOR WHO I AM.
I JUST WANNA BE MYSELF, AND I WANT YOU TO KNOW: I AM MY HAIR!

I'VE HAD ENOUGH. THIS IS MY PRAYER: THAT I'LL DIE LIVING JUST AS FREE AS MY HAIR!

I'VE HAD ENOUGH. I'M NOT A FREAK. I JUST KEEP FIGHTING TO STAY COOL ON THE STREETS!

NEW HAIR. NEW YEAR. NEW YORK

Blond + Ocean Blue fade into Turquoise. 5+ hours of sitting and a chemical burnt later, Voila! It's so cold right now in NYC, I need to feel like I'm soaking in a warm tropical wave! :)

I know I don't blog much of anything but what's going in my life and in my mind. But that's why it's my blog, I only know how to show you who I am. It is not about being vain, I use myself in my work to help me understand who I am better. Seeking inwards; self-actualization.

A quote by Adam Elenbass: “The mind is beautiful because of the paradox. It uses itself to understand itself.”

Yes it's freezing here in New York, but in my mind, I'm always in the tropics and the sunset never ends... HAPPY NEW YEAHHHHH!!!!!!!

Have a blessed and exciting year! I wish all our hard work will pay off soon! CHEERS~!
