Psychedelic, Baby

 

I have developed a particular fondness for brightly colored hair.

The above picture is me in five years. (Yeah right; like my mom would let me do that.)

This is me now.
Well, as drawn by a KidPubbian friend. Unfortunately, it looks nothing like the real me. (Thanks to Calla for the AWESOME picture!!!)

In honest reality, this is me now. Yeah. (Nice picture, no? It's all lovely and abstract) Thankfully, I do have my cheap Claire's clip-in streaks, although the pink one got kinda frizzy at the bottom.
Yesterday it was my Grandma's birthday (HAPPY BIRTHDAY, GRANDMA!), and our whole family was over there last night. I was carrying some cupcakes outside when my ADORABLE four year old cousin noticed that my hair was, in fact, glowing.
The streaks are psychedelic.
OH. MY. WOOKING. YODA.
I have never felt cooler. Like, ever.
On a slightly different note, I'd like to inform you all that the 2012 LeNerd Bedroom Resdesigning has begun. My room, as of now, is soft pink with this velvet coating on it. Cute for a little kid, but not for me. Ideally, it will be neon green on one wall, neon pink on another, cork board on yet another and chalkboard pain on the last one. As long as we're talking about things that will never happen as long as my mom is supervising this, I'd also like a red door, hard wood floors and more bookshelves. (My Star Wars novels are taking up a lot of space.)
In reality, it will probably end up being one {neon} color, the same white carpet and a normal door. I'm planning on completely covering one wall with posters and pictures, but other than that, my ideal room is definitely not gonna happen.
However, I did win on the ideal bed. It's actually just two mattresses stacked on the floor, but I think it's mass awesome. I'm looking for the perfect blanket and sheets still (hopefully a black comforter cover with pink sheets), but we're halfway there.
I also rearranged my dressers so that they're on either side of the bed. They are wildly unmatching, but they both kinda match the bookshelves that I have stacked on top of them. Unfortunately, the bookshelves are not as big as I thought they would be, so I need more of them.
Here's the top yea's and nay's of my current room:

Cool but slightly out of place comforter cover- Nay.

Holographic trash can- Yae.

Crowded Star Wars novels- Nay. Star Wars novels themselves- Yae.

Bookshelves (organized by author, if I might add)- Yae.

Little kid-y pink walls- Nay.

Abraham Lincoln in Jamaican hat and dreds- YAE.


May the Force be ever in your favor.
