Bucket List: The Shearing

Today we are going to take a photographic frolic through the evening of May 29, 2012; the day I took trimmers to my head. Some people say that I didn’t “technically” shave my head. I say I did… so… neener neener.

I call it “The Shearing” and it will more than likely come up again later since it provided me with much scope for thought.

Complete with captions, for your amusement, the completion of bucket list item #30.

Emo-Jessica is sad for no reason... because it's cool... and that's why this picture is in black and white and is shadowed which means I must be so deep and brooding.(note: sorry for poking fun, emo kids)

A brunette female version of Alex Louis Armstrong... Fullmetal Alchemist reference anyone? (note: Don't try to call me out on my small knowledge of anime outside of Sailor Moon... My sister is the one who had the idea for this pose/character)

Super cheesy-pie photo finish of my brand new hair-do(note: this photo received the most positive feedback of the photos I posted. Most of them had to do with Summer heat, ease of care, and less wind resistance while running)
