Today of All Days

I have been looking forward to today all week! Jason Aldean (a country singer) is at the La Crosse Center tonight, and Caitlin and I have tickets with my cousin Kyle and all of his roommates. I've been excited all week, that is until I woke up at 3 O'clock this morning with a runny nose, sore throat, and a headache. Out of all days to get sick it had to be today! I'm hoping I will feel better by tonight so I am still able to go. I am done with classes at 11 today and I'm going home and hopefully sleeping it off all afternoon. If I'm feeling the slightest bit better I am going to the concert tonight!

Comfort Zone

One of our assignments for this class was to do something out of our comfort zone and write a paper about it. I had a really hard time trying to think of something to do for this assignment. Finally I decided that I would let my friend, Caitlin, pick out a hair color and dye my hair. This was really out of my comfort zone because I was putting all of my trust in her to pick out a color and let her dye my hair which she has never done before. To ease my nerves Caitlin said she was only going to pick out a temporary hair dye so it wouldn't' stay in my hair as long. Before we dyed my hair she showed me she had picked out a light brown color. (my hair was blond to begin with) I was okay with her choice so we started dying my hair. I became nervous again because she had never done this before, and if she didn't get the roots or forgot some hair it would be really obvious! Caitlin did a great job for her first time! The only thing that went wrong was that my hair turned out more red then brown but that wasn't her fault! At first I didn't like my hair at all! I'm starting to get used to it, but I don't think I will dye it back to this color again, I like my natural color better. But over all I am really glad I did this because it made me realize that if I just relax and trust someone that it will work out okay in the end.
