Yesterday morning, I had perfect Rook hair.

.....

For about five minutes. Then I stepped outside, and instantly it all curled the fuck up.

Then I get to work and they inform me that they're shooting a commercial, and they want to film me and my class. Woo~!

Except I looked like absolute shit. Probably one of my worst looking days I've ever had in my life. Like, literally. But they came and filmed me, looking like a frizzy-haired old coot. And it's going to be on TV or the internet or something.

And I was so angry and embarrassed. That's the image of me that's going to be remembered? That's awful. I'm mortified.

I felt so bad, and it was all because I have this horrible, curly hair and live in a place with super high humidity. And stupid me all this time was thinking if I grew my hair out then on really bad days I could just pull it back into a ponytail and it'd be fine. But it wasn't fine, at all. Because half my hair simply won't grow long enough to pull back, ever. Instead it just sticks straight out, or up, or over and around. I felt so ugly, and looked it too.


In conclusion, I've finally had my first haircut in Japan.
