Long Luscious Hair

So its been about two months since I have been in Canada, and about 4-5 months since I have cut my hair.  It is is not as long as I'd hope at this point.  It is very much afro-like if I there is no gel in it.  Although it is getting longer, it seems to just be poofing out further away from my head instead of falling down as I'd hope it would act.  I think that I still need it to be longer so that that the weight keeps it down. I hope it just doesn't stay an afro forever. That would really blow.  At this moment it still does not look like Antonio Banderas' hair (as many of you know this is what I wish my hair looked like).  It seems, very sadly, that my hair will never look like this. Damn you curly genes!

I've always wished I had straight hair.  I have been analyzing myself and why this is so and  I think this desire stems from my adoration of Superman that I have carried since I could remember - which is why I wish I had blue eyes, were buff, and had superpowers.  Although I can't make myself grow straight hair, turn my eyes blue, or lift a car over my head, with lots of work I can acquire muscle mass. Which due to my super busy schedule here in Canada, I don't think I will accomplish this goal just yet.  Sadly, it must be pushed back yet another year (my overall laziness too affects this plan). But I digress.

Even though my hair won't grow out straight like I'd wish, I still don't plan to cut it until after I return to LA.  Today in class I revealed my plans to not cut my hair (or shave) this year, and they thought it was pretty funny that I'd do that and were wondering how I'd look like with my normal shorter hair and hairless face. One of the girls then asked "how long have you been growing that?" and pointed at my face. I assume she meant my weak ass moustache and (not weak ass) goatee. I told her I haven't shaved since we started school as the last time I shaved was for orientation when they took our ID pictures. She laughed. "It took you two months to grow that?" I wasn't really hurt by the comment but it did make me feel less manly in some way. Especially when she pointed to my roommate's face who has a beard that he can grow in less than a week.

I've never been a hairy guy and it really doesn't bother me too much because I don't think I look good in facial hair (neither does Monique - I can't even count how many times she's told me to shave my face during our skype convos haha).  Even though I don't think I look good in a moustache they have always fascinated me. My uncle, who has always been a father figure for me, has an awesome moustache. I think that's why I want one. Regardless of how bad I think I may look with hair on my face, I think that every self respecting man should have one at least once in his lifetime.  Even if it takes me all year I'm going to grow me a moustache. Or die trying.

Notice how I didn't post any pictures of my weak facial hair and my long hair? Well I probably won't post any until I can get a decent moustache that you guys won't laugh at.  So I have spent entirely too much time talking about my hair, so I must go. I only have about a week and a half until the end of term and there is a LOT of things I have to get done and work on before then.  I probably wont be sleeping at all for this next week and a half.   But I will try to post some of my work by the end of the weekend so you guys can see what I've been doing. Until next time.
