Still Raining...

when it rains in boston, it doesnt stop. this has been true for the past week, and will continue to be true for the next week as well. in my time here, i have only seen a total of mebbe 3 -4 sunny days. yuck! it didnt even rain this much in waterloo. when i say raining, i mean raining everyday for almost 2 weeks!!!

yesterday i went to "diego's" for a haircut. its pretty well known in boston for its haircuts. and darrick insisted that i go somewhere professional if i do get a hair cut. the service was very good, and people very friendly. and i do like my new cut. its quite a bit shorter than it used to be, so i think it takes me some time to adjust, but i like it. im waiting for my face to clear up so i can appreciate the cut fully. ive been breaking out a bit, and i think its finally going down. grrrr... i hate it when that happens.

well, i walked in the rain yesterday cuz it was then or i'd have to wait for another week, and like i mentioned before, my hair was really pissing me off being all limp and stuff. so, i took the trek. against my roommates advice, cuz they said it was raining too hard to go out, but told me to be careful. they're really nice, and have made my transition here so much nicer. so off i went in the rain, with my trusty umbrella and my scribbled google map on the back of an envolope. mebbe it was me, mebbe it was google maps, i blame it on the google map, but i got lost again. the roads here are kinda crazy. they wind, they loop, they go in every which way, and fork into different roads. grr.... what a day to get lost. i could hear the water in my shoe squishy by the time i got close enough to the hair salon. o and i experienced the full meaning of capillary action. my jjeans were soaked passed my knees!!! o.... it was not fun.

ne way, i asked the lady to feel free to do whatever she felt would be nice with my hair. i didnt mind a little makeover. but i did also mention that i have had long hair for a while and my bf likes long hair. but as long as its not passed my ears or a mohawk, anything is fine with me. i like change sometimes.

the hair dresser lady really loved me hair. and kept complimenting about how smooth it was and that i really didnt need to do much to style it. so it made me feel more confident in my new hair cut. i took some pics, but i want to take some nice pics before posting them up in msn space.

gonna go do some laudry soon. cooked zuchinni pasta, bean salad, and a zuchinni and tomatoe soup today. i really like cooking. and when i cook for myself, its nice to have it last all week (sometimes). my roomies really like my pasta too, and even taught me a garlic and oregano yogurt sauce that went really well with it. i had a lot of zuchinni left, and i really didnt want to go out and do grocery shopping todya. but i must go sometime i suppose, since i cant exactly wait until it stops raining to go, which would usually be the plan. mebbe i'll just go across the street to the convenience store instead or something. arrrg.... this weather is so depressing. note to self, may is not a good time to be visiting boston.

i also found this game that i loved playing in grade 5. its called where in the world is carmen sandiego. and i honestly thought it was the greatest game ever. so ive been playing for the past few days. im a private eye now:).
