hair update #2...

i still haven't cut my hair. as previously mentioned, the last hair cut was on march 5th. for those of you keeping track, that's 165 days and counting.

hm... should i cut it?
reasons for YES:
(1) i hate it when my hair gets into little knots everywhere.
(2) i'm (sort of) getting tired of the long hair.
(3) i don't like the slimey/slippery feeling that conditioner leaves on my body after i rinse my hair.
(4) i look like a korean fob.
(5) my bangs poke my eyes.
(6) i can't fit all my hair into my swimming cap.
(7) i'm constantly having to pick up my hair off my bedroom floor.
(8) many of my oz friends think this is what i normally look like.

reasons for NO:
(1) i don't want to go back to my short spikey hair look. every 2nd generation-asian kid has the same hair cut! well, sort of. short at the sides, short the back...
(2) i've started using conditioner, and i LIKE it! it leaves my hair nice and smooth.
(3) my hair is long enough for me to twirl in between my fingers. *this one counts for TWO points!
(4) i can't wear my headbands with short hair.
(5) i always give up on growing my hair after a few months. i should STICK IT OUT!
(6) i probably won't have a chance like this to grow my hair out again. i've been lucky this year with a pretty relaxed clinical coach.
(7) many of my oz friends think this is what i normally look like.

clearly. it's a tough choice.
and as such, to you dear loyal reader of my blog, i give you the opportunity to speak up! fill out the little poll at the bottom of the page. poll closes on monday, august 20th, 2007 at 11:59pm Brisbane local time. That's sometime around 9:59am on august 20th in toronto. i will seriously consider the results of this poll when making my decision.
