Is my loc growth at a standstill?

*sigh* I've been taking pictures to track growth and doing everything I should be doing, but I feel like my locs aren't growing anymore. I have noticed that my locs have become much more firm. I think my locs are in that compacting stage where they look short. I know a lot is actually happening inside my locs, but I want to see growth! My locs have shrunken so much they do not look like they're growing. There's nothing I want more than long, healthy locs. A growth plateau is not the business. I think I'll be pinning my hair up a lot more often. That way, I can stop focusing so much on length. Y'all know how much length has always meant to me. Hopefully I'll get past this stage soon! After all, I am nine days away from my eight month locaversary! Anyway, I haven't shown you a retwist in a while. I'm due for my next retwist Saturday, so I'll be sure to post pictures.

Until next time!

Kindle Consideration

I've always been a physical book reader. I love seeing my progress as I flip the pages and holding a good book close. With soo many e-readers coming out, I swore I would never own one. My mother and grandmother both have Kindle Fires. They both still read physical books though. Somehow, I feel pulled to the side of the e-readers. I'm starting to realize the benefits to having an e-reader handy. Books are expensive for a college student! Textbooks alone run me hundreds of dollars. I rarely have money to purchase books for leisure. Also, I hate carrying leisure books in my bag with my textbooks and notebooks. They just become extra luggage. It would be so much easier to through an e-reader into my bag than a chunky book. My mom suggested that I purchase the original Kindle which is only $79. Thankfully, I am working for the summer, so I will certainly have the money to spare. I will still read physical books whenever I can, though! I refuse to fully surrender to technology! Two covers and pages will always be my preference, but a Kindle would be great too.

Until next time...

The Future Looks Sooo Bright!

I'm not sure how many people read this blog, so I won't disclose all of the information regarding my future here. I am, however, elated! My future is looking so bright. At the age of 7, I started my own business selling soap, lotion, etc. I found my love for entrepreneurship at this age. It is only right that I make my future being my own boss. I will not exactly say what my business will be, but it is a mix of both of my passions. A few minutes ago, literally, I made a business connection! I reconnected with a friend who can and is willing to help me in major ways regarding my business. As a recent college graduate, I believe helping me with my business will be great experience for him. It certainly won't hurt me! Anyway, I'll keep you all updated on my future.

Until next time...
