Today was... eventful. In a way.
I helped Farah with some herbs, of course (I wonder if she's met Rania yet. They seem like they would get along...) and met up with my friend, Emma. Normally she brings her younger sister along with her, but she was busy with some riding competitions today. I wish I were as talented as either of them are.
I also did something else... something more exciting. I don't know why I did it. I just... I saw the sign, and something happened inside of me. I've always kept my hair long, and usually dyed a bright blue. But I've never loved it per se. All I know is that when I walked in there and got it cut short it changed everything about the way I see myself.
For the first time, I looked in the mirror and saw myself.
Was it that it was rinsed out to my natural colour?
Was it that is was cut so spiky and rebellious and chaotic?
Was it the length?
I don't know. I don't know, I don't know, I don't know.
What's wrong with me?
