16 Thoughts Every Girl Has When Deciding To Chop All Her Hair Off That Prove It's Life-Changing
Kelsey Dietrich

Every once in a while, a big change is needed. When making any change, it can be nerve-wracking and scary, especially when that change has to do with your appearance.

A prime example of this is deciding to chop your hair off.

It's different from the average hair cut because this cut involves SEVERAL INCHES OF HAIR rather than just one to clean things up every few months.

Here are 16 thoughts you have when you decide to chop your hair off once and for all.

1. I think I want to cut off all my hair.

*Wakes up one morning after having long hair for years and has this thought*

2. Who should I consult with first?

*Discusses this big life decision with anyone who will listen.*

3. So this is what it would look like...

The thought you have after pinning your long hair up in half to make it look like you have shorter hair.

4. I'm going for it!

The split second of confidence...

5. But it's just so long now and it took FOREVER to grow!

Years and years, AND YEARS!

6. It's just hair!

You keep telling yourself, over and over again.

7. And it will grow back.

So if it seems too short at first, just think... it's already starting to grow back!

8. I'm going to donate my hair. 

The idea of donating helps solidify the plan of actually getting enough hair cut off to be able to do this.

9. But my hair is SO LONG.

Even the more reason to get it cut.

10. I'm making my appointment. 

Can't back out of an appointment that's been made at a salon.

11. Today's the day!

It's go-time!

12. One last wash with all of this hair. 

Honestly, washing long hair is exhausting.

13. One braid has already been cut off, so there's no going back now.

There's nothing left to do but chop the other side!

14. Wowza, that's A LOT of hair. 

And I'm holding my braids in my hand.

15. It looks great!

Just like when you clipped all your long hair up to make it short... only now it's for real!

16. I think I might want it even a little shorter...

There's no fear in getting a haircut now!

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions.
