bangs?

bonjour blog! (ahh allitération)


I'm going to get my haircut in a couple of days, and I'm still can't decide what to get done.
my current hair color is about this: (maybe a little darker)


and I've been wanting to go more 'ginger', so I think I'm going to get it this color:

but I can't decide if I want legit bangs or not. 
I've put up a list to help out my decision, but...it didn't help much. maybe you, lovely person who's reading this, could help? <3

reasons I want bangs:
  • something different
  • when I breakout 90% of the time it's on my forehead, so bangs could easily conceal those blemishes without caking my face with gross make-up. (<< this is a big reason)
reasons I don't want bangs: 
  • I'm going to be Ginny Weasley (or maybe Hermione...depending on what my other friend wants to do) to the final Harry Potter premiere, and neither of them have bangs (I know this sounds like not such a big deal, but me and my friends go all out for Harry Potter costumes. it's legit)
  • Over the summer I'm going to be filming a Doctor Who spoof for one of my friends who's trying to make it into a film school-thing. the character I'm playing is Amy Pond, who doesn't have bangs (also the reason why I'm going more red, so by the summertime I can go "ginger").
(yes, she's a total bad-@$$)
  • since the summer's coming up, I don't want to have to worry about straightening my bangs everyday and I hear that bangs get quite sweaty, which is a wee bit gross. then again, like I said above, I don't want to have to wear a lot of makeup in the summer...meh!
so, there is my dilemma. I also need help deciding what kind of bangs to get if I do get them. (you can see pics of my face on UBC, of course, and you'll also see that I kind of have bangs now but I've been growing them out.)

speaking of dilemmas, have you donated to help out Japan? I understand if you can't, but it's really only $10. I'm a student who shops at goodwill (aka, I'm too cheap to buy anything full price hahaha) so if you can give some money, you would rule. and the feeling afterword is pure bliss (if you have to pay taxes, Red Cross is tax deductible!). if you have any family/friends in Japan, then they are in my (and many others!) thoughts, and I'm praying for the best. also, I live in middle Tennessee, so if they end up evacuating the west coast (eek!) then you can always stay with Mama Josie! bahahahaha sorry, I just had to say Mama Josie. 


thanks so much guys!

advice blog and apologies

Now Playing - Cosmic Love by Florence + the Machine

Hello all! It's been a while and I have gained 6 followers! Wooo!! Thanks for following/reading this guys :)
Again, sorry it's been so long, but I doubt any of you were waiting impatiently, haha.
ANYWAY. The reason for this new post is that I want to start having an advice column type thing on here. I really like helping other people out in this way, and I'm normally pretty good. But everyone has their own opinion :)
And also, because I have way too much time on my hands.

So, if you need advice on something, whether it be about school or friends or how much you should tip your cab driver, shoot me an email at josie_tothemax@yahoo.com.
I will respond to your question on this blog, but your name will be anonymous/will be changed so no one will know it was you who wanted advice. I will email you back when I have posted on the blog (if you don't want me posting on the blog for whatever reason, I can just respond through email too).
In the future, I think I'm going to set up an email address for everyone to use. I would give everyone the password/email so they can submit everything through that so even I won't know who submitted their "problem". What do you think would be the best way to ensure anonymity?

I'm a pretty open-minded person. I won't judge you, or make fun of you whatever your issue may be. (:

Thanks guys!
Josie
