I GOT IN!

YAY! I got into a doctoral program -- and I'm so pleased about it! And I'm super hyped that I'll be able to experience my sisterlocks in school.  Now, I'm sure that professionalism will always be key - but I'm can't be happier that I can rock sneakers and jeans on a daily basis if I wanted to, LOL!
So my babies are almost 2 months old and here is how I feel about them:
1) LOVE THEM
2) Not as hard to take care of them as I was prepared to do
3) LOVE THEM

Okay, so while that may not be the most descriptive description, it does truly speak to how I feel.  I went to chapter meeting a few days ago and I got some awesome compliments.  However I did have to laugh when one soror asked me what I had done. When I told her that my hair was in sisterlocks, she was super interested. But when I told her they were permanent (because in my mind, they are just as permanent as any other kind of lock) - she almost flipped out.  She acted like I just told her that I had baby snakes growing in my head and I intended on harvesting them for their snake eggs (okay, maybe she wasn't quite like that).  But either way, her response hit me in the wrong way.

Anyway...here are some pics from a week or so ago!

(The shirt says "every damn day just do it" - pretty much how I feel about life)

Well, until next time folks!! Love yourself...love others...and stop living like this is just the dress rehearsal!

MUAH!
