Changes

Maybe it’s the cold weather (Oh man has it been cold here!), or all the other change that’s happening in our lives (moving soon, plus lots of other things I’ll share in the coming weeks), but I felt like yesterday was a good day for a hair cut! Not just any hair cut though, a bit of a more radical hair cut.

The hair dresser was hesitant to say the least when I told her that I wanted my hair in an angle- shoulder length one side, and the length it is now at the other (nearly at the bottom of my back). She tried to show me other hair styles, but to be frank, they were all ‘normal’ hair cuts. And I’ve had boring long hair for a while now. I wanted something interesting. Something different.

After convincing her that radical hair was not new to me, she agreed to cut. 60-odd dollars, and over an hour later I had been pampered with hair washing, major cuttage, and a straightening. Thankfully when Luke got home, he loved it. I hadn’t actually told him I was getting a hair cut (it was very impulse), let alone chopping off half the hair he adore so much…

It is hard to believe that on the short side my hair is 100% natural. O. M. G. It has literaly been about 11 years since I have seen my natural hair colour like this. You can see in the second picture that it gradually gets lighter. I’ve had the whole spectrum of colours before, dark brown (nearly black), to red, to blonde with white streaks at our wedding. So if you have a colour suggestion, I’m probably up for it (unless it’s orange- doesn’t suit my skin tone)!

Fluff Piece

break
I believe this is what they call a fluff piece…

It’s official, I’m a University of New South Wales graduate, and hold post graduate qualifications…

New Haircut. Zooey Deschanel style, sort of… In honour of 5 more weeks till we’re in Europe and there are hundreds of photos of me that I will need/want to keep forever…

Photos and Projects…

I have a couple of projects on the go/I’m starting, and I’ve been taking a few photos lately…

YESTERDAY I was taking some snaps of my friend Pete, who’s a mime. Here’s a sneak-peak shot- no others have been edited yet. I really enjoy taking photos, and I’m going to be doing a photo course with Carmen and Rachel in a few weeks/months, so that’s pretty exciting. :-)

Poiter, the mime.

Poiter, the mime.

Taking photos those makes one TIRED! And I seem to spend so much more time in post-production then actually taking the photos. Is this NORMAL?!!?!

AND I have so much to do! I’m making a bag for my fabric ruler. It’s my first sort of patchwork thing, so I’m pretty excited.

I GRADUATE tomorrow. I’m a little non-excited about it, and a little nervous. More nervous about my hair actually, and it’s black roots… My initial thoughts were, “I’m wearing that cardboard hat, so it’ll be okay” and now I’m not so sure… I’ll be calling Suanne today to see if she can fit me in for an emergency colour. Rachel is so much more organised then me… *hangs head in shame*.

Also, I thought I would post it out there that if you are following me on twitter, @sunshinetalia is my personal account, and @taliacarbis is my geek/education account. If you’ve never re-followed @sunshinetalia from the handle swap a few weeks ago, then you’re probably missing out. ;-)
