Dilemma 2 (Hair) update - Imma let you finish

But Yinkuslolo's chop is the best of '09 (did I hear Solange's?)!

I went for the big chop 3 hours ago.

Before, I had two hair textures. The last time that I got a perm was in March.

After the chop. I bet you're wondering what that eeny teeny beety is doing in front. If I decide to rock my cut, I want to have bangs in front. So, I can just straighten it, whenever I am ready to bare it open.

All those yeye chemicals in relaxers have given my treated hair a tint of purple/brown/whatever colour. I am not even sure, I may cut that front part off totally but I want the bangs tho. We'll see.

PS: Obviously, or if not, my friend used a pair of scissors for my cutting. Click on picture, for a better view.
Now, I have to just weave that front portion, don my hair piece and one of my problems is already solved.

Two huge Dilemmas

-------------------------------------------------

I plan my breaks, as far as three months ahead. Honestly, it's just because of flight costs.

But I have been debating where to spend my spring break. Seriously, I'm confused.

I already planned to go to Naija this December, cos Mumcee will be there too. Also, I get to see my friends and folks, I have missed them. I get to retain my sanity. Naija is really home to me.

But my mum can't make it again, she is staying home in Budapest. I really want to see her. Else, this long-distance mother-daughter relationship will loose its elasticity. I have only been home for 3 weeks, this year.

I can't go to both places. So I have to decide.

Pros of going to Naija:

• I get to see friends and folks.
• I will enjoy the tropical weather and dodge this punishment, called winter.
• I will possibly go on a mini West-African tour.

Cons:

• I will lose $2000+ of my money to the cheapest air service that I can find to spend just 3 weeks.
• I will not see the most important, yet some-what absent, person in my life.

Pros of going home, Budapest:

• I'll see the infamous MumCee
• I will def go on a mini-European tour, if I can stay warm. I had better be warm ni.
• By hook, crook, or book, I will book a cheap flight. Even if I have to stop over in the north pole.

Cons:

• I will not see my friends, almost 2yrs now. I feel different from them.
• I will die of cold. No kidding, Yankee is cold, but Hungary is freezing yo. Clear slippery ice is not the best thing to be walked upon

To be honest, runsing three continents is no joke, not even funny. Don't do it, the fun ends after the first round-about trip.

Where should I go?

-------------------------------------------------------

My hair!!!

I can't maintain my real hair. It's treated but due for relaxing. I see no point in paying someone $60 to do my hair, when I will still get a weave. Ajebo girls in my school know nada about making one's hair. Now, my hair is short, breaking, somewhat-unkempt and covered with my lace-front wig. When the winter comes, it will just break off totally.

Thus, I want to take the big chop this weekend and go natural. I may not even grow it out, just keep it low. The low-cut hair-do is low maintenance but I prefer the long hair length. I will still be wearing my orisirisi hair extensions/wigs/weaves.

I am not yet into the empowerment thing, when you take the big chop and go natural or otherwise.

I want to do it for the financial benefit and time-saving advantage.

The hair is not even growing so I will let it go.

So, what am I still waiting for? Damn, I don't wanna remember what I looked like when I was on low-cut, back in high school. not the best of my looks. What if I have to bare my real hair and not like my cut. Well, I am too occupied to enhance my facial looks and wear screaming jewelry for the sake of a low-cut.

This hair?

--------------------------------------------

Anyway, I have to finalise my winter break itinerary before I end up staying in Yankee, my loss.

I'm off to work. Oh! This is my first time at my second job, I'm an Events' Usher.

I still want to take bar-tending classes sometime though.

Ignore typos and any mistakes as usual, Yinkuslolo dislikes proof-reading.
