Changes

So many things have already changed.  And just as the old saying goes, nothing within the limits of this world is permanent, except for change.  It is a phenomenon people have been constantly trying to control, but haven't completely succeeded in doing.  And as much as people want to try to ignore it, we all change just the same.  In a blink of an eye, one could lose everything.  No one remains on the top of his or her pedestal forever.

Getting bangs was the best thing I did next to KNOWING WHAT'S GONNA BE GOOD FOR ME.  Before, I was damn scared of eliminating things.  I felt that if I get rid of something, things may never be the same as it was before.  Detaching something from my life that has been with me for long was a choice I never thought of resorting to.  It's all just like getting "the bangs."  Hair all tied in a ponytail before was plain and safe for me, and getting my hair cut was something I really dreaded.  But as I was sitting there on the salon chair, watching my hair being cut while small parts and strands of it fall slowly onto the marble ground, I realized, change wasn't painful at all.  As Nicole Richie put it, you have to eliminate things not good for you so that in return, you can finally take charge of your life.  Living with something that doesn't make you feel good about yourself and doesn't help you get any better as a person is like throwing and wasting your whole life away.  And again, you wouldn't know the difference unless you try.
