happy 2013

i'm greeting the new year with side-bangs, fresh coral lip treatment, & a thrifted sweater. 

i'm slightly nervous about this new year as i will be cramming to finish my thesis this semester so i can graduate in may. also nervous because i'm not sure what i am going to be doing after. i just need to stay focused & take it as it comes.

i thought about doing a year in review like the other blogger family members, but decided against it. honesty because i'm lazy & am just starting to get sick :/

i saw blue valentine a few weeks ago for the first time. i loved it & i hated it. for those of you who saw it, what did you think?

i've been growing out my full bangs & making them into side bangs. i have my preference of what i like, but i want to ask your opinion: should i keep growing out my bangs or cut them again to make them full bangs?

i miss miguel.

    I'm sorry you're feeling sick! Drink lots of tea with honey. :)

    I haven't seen Blue Valentine though I want to. What didn't you like about it?

    I'm not the best advice-giver on hair. Refer to Maggie of fabulous hair! ha ha

      yes to the tea & honey! i've been doing that.
      about blue valentine, it was really hard to watch, mostly because it was really real. it's heartbreaking, like life is a lot of time. you should see it. even if it's just once.
      maggie for sure! hehe.

    YOUR BANGS ARE SO CUTE THOUGH.
    also, blue valentine made me hate the world and cry and feel miserable but it was so honest and beautiful at the same time.

    I had side swept bangs for most of high school and really liked them. My first year in college I didn't feel like they looked as good anymore, so I grew them out. I also really liked not having bangs, but eventually I felt like it didn't look as good anymore either, so I cut them to straight across. Now I think my hair is really awesome again. What I am trying to say is this: Sometimes change makes you feel like you have the best hair ever. Mix it up! You can always cut them again if you decide you don't like it. But honestly you're a TOTAL BABE anyway you do your hair.

    Lina! Happy New Year! I love your sweater and your side-bangs.
    I used to have bangs but now my skin is too oily for me to have bangs.
    I saw the blue valentine trailer couple weeks ago.
    I guess I will watch it soon :)
    Hope you are having a great day!

    Happy New Year Lina!
    You look so pretty here- the jumper is Amazing!
    The 'fringe' looks so beautiful like this, I love it both ways.... So not very helpful! An experiment is always good though. As is change.. sometimes.
    Gosh, nearly a year ago? Wow, it feels ages, but it doesn't feel that long ago at the same time.
    I miss you too. Hopefully you might visit again one day?
    Huge Hugs

    Happy new year!
    For what it's worth, I'd say grow them out for now, cut them later. :)
