To Dye or not to Dye

My hair color is back to its natural shade, thanks to non ammonia containing wash out dyes that eventually fade out only leaving a hint of the dark red i use (this information is only useful if at all interesting to female readers, and i'm aware of that), and now i am contemplating what to do next...

It is now a darkish brown that has a reddish and sometimes yellowish (can't say blondish) aura in the sun. Now i know very few of you have any clue of what i'm going on about as very few of you have seen me, but i am now wondering what to do with my hair color so indulge me.

The options are:
1. Dark red again (as per picture on left)
2. Leave as is and stay on the dark brown conventional side for the winter
3. Go lighter and get light brown/dark blond highlights, the key word here would be "subtle"

I am most inclined to option 2, it's been a while since i had my own shade, however, the red gets tons of compliments, and the lighter is something i've never done before so could be a nice change, however again, high lights must be done using ammonia, and ammonia fucks the hair.

Input?

Temptation

This is the nth time i consider posting job vacancies on this blog and decide against it.

Tagged by Alluring to tell you five things you don't know about me, not an easy task considering all i've spilled out on this blog... let's give it a go...

• I joined in a Kentucky Fried Chicken basketball tournament with my school team, unfortunately we won and my picture was up on one of the KFC branches for months and months as the KFC tournament champions.
  
• I sang "Cuban Pete" from The Mask with two friends of mine on live radio through the phone, with no music and only shakers and tabla. This was fifteen years ago.
• I once sat down a 35 year old man and scolded him for 2 hours while he looked at the floor, for making out with my best friend, who was fifteen, as was I.
  
• I have not followed the news since Bush got re-ellected. I will commence my following of the news when he is replaced.
• I am funnier and tougher than you would ever ever guess reading this blog.

That wasn't easy... now my vengeance!
I tag Herlock, Zoss, Carmen, Sand-e, Kaf (try to participate), and Faisal

To the Man

My "Daddy" is leaving Paris, I always spend my time with him in Paris...

The man is going home... I envy him, a little..... and going to Paris and not finding him will be a bummer....

Here's to the man, who made me start blogging; France is gonna miss ya.

P.S: Don't start bitching about worlds colliding! You hear??! :)

Tagged

Tagged by Kareem, but according to him "only if I'm into tags", not especially Kareem, but am not one to be a spoil sport....

So here goes:

1) Are you happy/satisfied with your blog with it's content and look?

The look I liked for a while, and now I am bored with it, however I don't like any other template enough to replace it, and I can't be bothered to go looking for one I like and figure out how to change it. The content is what I feel like putting out there, it's an outlet really, I don't look at it that way...

2) Does your family know about your blog?

Nope

3) Do you feel embarrassed to let your friends know about your blog or you just consider it as a private thing?

Hardly, but sometimes my posts include them and I wouldn't want to upset them, I also enjoy the feeling of not having someone's opinion at the back of my mind while I write, it makes it less self conscious, so I guess I opt for it's something private.

4) Did blogs cause positive changes in your thoughts?

An outlet, which makes me feel unburdened, so yes.

5) Do you only open the blogs of those who comment on your blog or you love to go and discover more by yourself?

No, I go searching for them, I hop from blog to blog through links people make.

7) Did you try to imagine your fellow bloggers and give them real pictures?

Pictures? A little bit, but more of character traits. I already know maxxed out, but imagining him would've been fun :) Freudian is intelligent, hip and a bit in her own head, Herlock makes sure he stays in shape and on top of things, and is a lot nicer and softer than he lets on, Carmen has a very charming feel about her, yet the woman has much substance, Sand-e is analytical and quite developed as a person, La Gitana is a free spirit creating all over the place, Will is the male version of me :), Lou lou is a sweet heart, conservative yet open minded, Alluring is very sure of herself, Tainted is venting but she has a heart of gold... you get the idea

8) Admit. Do you think there is a real benefit for blogging?

Same benefits as any hobby, outlet, pastime, entertainment...

9) Do you think that bloggers society is isolated from real world or interacts with events?

Thats like asking if I think all engineers are geeks... I'm sure your average blogger has a life, and I'm sure there are tons of people who fixate on blogging and lose touch, it depends on the character.

10) Does criticism annoy you or do you feel it's a normal thing?

Criticism doesn't sit well with me, it feels like interference, but I'm learning to take it easier. Judgment on the other hand is absolutely unwelcome, criticize constructively or stay away from my blog.

11) Do you fear of some political blogs and avoid them?

No, most of them just bore me...

12) Did you get shocked by the arrest of some bloggers?

I didn't really follow that, that was before I started blogging, were they actually arrested for just blogging?

13) Did you think about what will happen to your blog after you die?

That is the least of my concerns.

14) What do you like to hear? What's the song you like to put its link in your blog?

I wouldn't, no one song could capture all these moods.

15) Five bloggers to be the next "victims"?

Lets see, who hasn't been tagged... Freudian (if she bothers), Will (if he has the time), maxxed out wont so I'll skip him to begin with, Mechanical Crowds, Tainted, Loulou, La Gitana and Carmen (if they drop by here to find out). I think we should get a response from 3-5 of those.

I Knew It!

You Belong in Barcelona

When it comes to Europe, you don't want to decide between culture and fun. You want art by day and a big party by night. Barcelona is ideal for you. You can check out some Picasso, eat some tapas, take a siesta, and then dance all night!

What European City Do You Belong In?

The New Seven Wonders

They're thinking of taking out the pyramids, and they're choosing all over again, Vote for the New Seven Wonders, and as they say, make history...

I am Clinton
