Getting a haircut!

-
HI! Today, I got a haircut. This may not seem very significant...but I have to start by saying this: I've been growing my hair for years now. This morning, it was halfway down my back. I love my long hair very, very much, and I hadn't gotten a haircut in about a year and a half. However, today, I did.

I went in with the intention to get only a couple inches off. I like my hair long, and I was NOT planning on changing that. So I just wanted a trim. But my hairdresser noticed that it was getting pretty bad, a lot split ends and dead hair. It was also really hard to take care of. So she suggested I take a bunch off.

I did.

It was a very hard process for me, watching all that hair which I'd spent so long growing, just fall to the ground. But I survived, and now?

My hair is at my shoulders. It does look nice still, and it's healthier, and I will come to appreciate it when I get out of my current state of shock.

I can't run my fingers through it anymore, though, like I used to. I can't do a lot of things that I used to be able to, but it'll grow back, and in the meantime, it's not the worst haircut in the world.

I need to figure out some cool hairstyles though, for short hair. I only know ones for long hair...since I used to have really long hair. If anyone knows any cool hairstyles for short hair, well, shoulder length hair, I'd really appreciate it if you'd let me know! I want to make the most of this haircut,since it is nice, plus I'm stuck with it for a bit, haha...so please comment any that you know? Thank you :)

Anyways, I'm going to go, so...have a great day! Oh and since I haven't posted since December...HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!! May 2016 be your best year yet :) Till next time!

Hey hey hey! How are you all? So, it's Sunday! Meaning, I'M BACK :)))) Okay, so I thought I'd do a combination post, since I only got one question haha :D So first for the question from  +Paige Petrovsky  : What made you want to start a blog ? THANKS FOR YOUR QUESTION :))))))  I had always kind of wanted to do something like this, before I started. I loved (and still love) writing, and photography. I had just read Zoella's book, Girl Online, and so decided that it would be super cool to start a blog myself!! And here we are, two years later, still lovin' it :)) Alright. Now, I'm super excited to be doing a tag today!!!! The lovely  Sweet Treats  nominated me for the Mystery Bloggers Award!! A massive thank you to them, I'm honoured!! You should definitely go check out their blog cause it is pretty freaking awesome!! :) Also, the creator of this award is  Okoto Enigma , who is also pretty cool!!

  Hello! Long time no see, haha oops. It's been a minute. So today, I wanted to do a mini recap on my fave shows so far since quarantine! I'm sure I'm not alone in watching significantly more netflix since quarantine began lol. However, I wanted to give it a bit of a twist. So without further ado, I give you my quarantine thus far, as told through TV shows. Friends/The Goodwife - March/April/May Okay this is back when quarantine first began. My life consisted of watching Friends, doing schoolwork, procrastinating, doing more schoolwork, watching the Goodwife, and studying for exams. I can't actually remember which one I watched first - I think I watched them together. Luckily by this time there wasn't too much schoolwork left haha. But I watched all of both these shows those 3 months...I was a bit obsessed if you can't tell. But the episodes for friends were only 20ish minutes long! I would 100% recommend both of these shows though, amazing pieces of work.  10/1

Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to my blog! As a writer, I know that finding inspiration for my stories can be a bit tricky at times. When you need ideas, they never seem to come! In fact, it's a bit like automatic flushing toilets. I don't know how it is for everybody else (maybe it's just me!) but the toilets always seem to flush when you DON'T want them to, and at the most inopportune moments. But then, when you need them to flush, they never seem to work! It's a bit like finding inspiration because when you don't need to find it, it just comes to you! But then, when you have writer's block and you NEED that inspiration, it just disappears like it was never there in the first place. This is why I decided to create this blog: Get Up And Out. It's all about trying new things, and perhaps finding some inspiration along the way. Did you know that trying new things challenges your brain, and helps to prevent Alzheimer's? Plus, it can be super fun as well. I'll
