men and long hair
------

Was talkin to Chee on the phone when he muttered this classic line

"I prefer girls with long hair.."

I don't know what is it with men and their obsession with long flowing hair.

I asked him why , and he gave me rather vague answers

"Long hair , can play mah .. "

"More feminine .."

Honestly , before i decided to chop off my once shoulder-length hair about 6 months ago , i was very apprehensive because i certainly do not want to come across as boyish and i must say that the few guys i've seriously dated before had the habit of messing around with my crowning glory , be it running their fingers through my hair while going up on the escalator or twirling strands around their fingers during bouts of silence in bus rides.

How i love that feeling.

Basking in affection is never a bad feeling eh ?

But it all stopped when i sort of went through a very bad patch last year , and yes , it involved a guy ( as always )

I had to resort to something drastic , most probably as a way of getting back at him.

I never regretted cutting my hair into a pageboy style even though it's quite a hassle to style it and that some friends commented i look bitchy with cropped hair. lol.

What i miss though , are those hair-playing moments.

Short hair not so nice to play with lah.

And the texture's not so good either .. Due to the layering and the styling products i have to apply , it just feels like hay compared to my old unadulterated shoulder-length hair.

Nobody wants to touch it anymore. LOL.

Here , compare them.



The mouse look. ( taken around July 2004 )





The "Shu nu" or matronly look. LOL. ( taken around Dec 2003 . Yes i know i look much older than the previous photo. WHAT THE HELL MAN!? )




The current look with the "Ay yai yai yai i'm a cute 14 year old girl" pout. Fuggin' balls.
