Book meme: Day 18!
Aug. 11th, 2010 05:40 amWhen I got my hair trimmed, I also swapped my anti-frizz shampoo for one of those "good for curly hair!" shampoos, and now my hair's natural curls are flying free. I think they need mousse, honestly, because they are still frizzy, but that's okay.
Unlike a lot of people in the world, I really love my hair. I think I have great hair. It looks good short, it looks good long, it looks good at every length in between. It's very difficult to manage, because sometimes it's curly, sometimes it's wavy, and sometimes it's straight, plus it's super thick and fine, and I have a lot of it. It's heavy enough that even at the length it is now (chin) when I put it into a ponytail, I get a headache. (That's why I wear a french braid so often.) And I have a lot of silver hair that doesn't take dye. So, I mean, it's not all glory and orange tulips, but I don't mind it. It's my hair.
And today it is super curly! Those curls are solely from going to sleep with wet hair. Pretty nice, huh?
Day 18 - Favorite beginning scene in a book
Nope, don't have one. I do not often think of books as discreet scenes, so it's difficult for me to pull up very specific scenes in my memory unless they are super powerful -- and even then I can't often think of the exact scene with its exact words and descriptions; I usually just have a vague impression of what happened in it.
Plus I sat here and tried to think of beginning scenes, and when I went to check the books, I realized that the scenes I thought of are none of them the scenes at the beginning of a book, but the first scenes that struck me as truly representative of the characters/situations.
Memory is a funny thing!
