The struggles of having big, curly hair.

#CurlyHairProbs

Sometimes I wonder if Miley Cyrus wrote her song "Can’t Be Tamed" about my hair. It's unruly, super curly, and defies gravity. If you can relate to this on a spiritual level, then you probably can also relate to these #CurlyHairProbs.

  1. If there is a 1 percent chance of raining, you know there is a 0 percent chance of straightening you hair.
  2. To curl your hair you have to straighten it first.
  3. Humidity is your worst enemy.
  4. You know that you would have killed the 80s look.
  5. You have a fear of getting your hair cut because you are afraid they will cut off too much.
  6. Your identifier is “The one with big hair.”
  7. You regularly are breaking hair ties.
  8. If you didn’t break the hair tie, it is for sure stretched out and no longer resembles its original shape or form.
  9. Blow drying your hair will add about five inches of volume.
  10. If you’re wearing your hair natural, you can't brush it without it looking like you were electrocuted.
  11. You always run out of conditioner before shampoo.
  12. How your hair looks literally dictates your mood for the day.
  13. Bobby Pins aren’t an option for you.
  14. You know you can never have short hair because it would look like an afro.
  15. You envy girls that go to bed with wet hair and wake up looking ready for the day.
  16. You can't run your fingers through your hair without them getting stuck.
  17. Going out at night with straight hair and coming home with it curly.
  18. If you had a nickel for every time you hair dried in less than 30 minutes you would have zero nickles.
  19. You hate your hair.
  20. You love your hair.
  21. You wouldn’t ever trade your big, curly, messy, wild hair for anything.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
