Hey Fuzz!
Sorry, I haven't written in so long!
Unfortunately, I can't really calculate my days pf at the moment. I accidentally left my calander at home (I'm visiting my friends and family right now).
I am writing to you guys from a nice, small library today (and probably for the rest of the week, if I come). This is because there is no internet connection at my grandparents' house.
Anyways, so far, summer's been a blast! On wednesday, I hungout with a friend of mine who I haven't seen in THREE YEARS! I had fun. We went to the pool, and then I spent the night over at her place.
Yesterday, I was lucky to spend time with my best friend (since 1st grade... I'm going into 10th). We went to a waterpark, and had a blast! I took photos, of course :) Anyways, I'll be sure to put some of those pictures up on my trichworld page. After spending 5 hours going down slides, taking pictures, and drifting around the lazy river, we went to stop by at a nice pasta (fast food) place called Noodles & Co. I got spaghetti (YUM) >:)
I have found that I am MUCH more confident when going to the pool and to waterparks (and in the water) since I've been pullfree. I don't have to worry about people seeing bald spots, or judging me for them. It's not so stressful anymore. I don't have to mess with my hair all the time. I can finally enjoy the experience. I'm more willing to say "Yes, I'd LOVE to go to the pool" instead of having to say ".. I don't like the pool.....". It's great :)
I have found that being busy has helped me TREMENDOUSLY with my pulling. I haven't pulled since my last entry :) Also, I find that when I say I WILL be pullfree for the day, and write it, that I usually strive more to reach that goal.
Anyways........ It's summer, which means....
ITS ABOUT TIME TO GET MY HAIR CUT :D :D :D
Since I haven't pulled ANY scalp or eyebrow hair starting Jan. 2, I'm treating myself to a cut. I hope to get layered, shoulderlength hair with sideswept bangs. I still haven't set a date yet though, haha. I'm going to donate my hair to Locks of Love. I CAN'T WAIT! Last time I got my hair cut at a salon was in 5th grade, I believe. Oh, the anxiety and anticipation :)
Well, the library closes in about 30 minutes, and the wi-fi ends in 15, so I'll talk to you later!

Oh, I was a FREAK!
sorry fuz!
I didn't write the next day, or the day after, and I'm sorry for that. I'm writing now, though :)
So I went to my friend's graduation party on sunday, and it was a blast! The food was amazing, and the time was awesome. (Oh yea, in case you didn't know, I'm a freshman.. my sis and I were the only freshmen there ^_^) Anyways, we all made a human pyramid, took tons of pictures, set off some small fireworks, watched southpark (:D), ate a ton of delicious food, etc. The one thing I will probably remember most (besides one completely awful unphotogenic picture), will be when we all tossed some people into the air. We used sheets and a tarp. I was one of the people thrown into the air. Even though heights freak me out, I am SO GLAD I DID IT. Who knew peer pressure could be a good thing? In 50 years, I'm gonna remember it :)
My sunburn is healing up, and no longer hurts (yay!). It's about time, haha.
Today, will hopefully be my 152 day pullfree. These small slipups are so reoccurring! I hate it! I need to do better at controlling it. Until I pull a hair from my scalp, however (my main site), I will not restart completely.
Just now, however, has been pretty emotional. I looked back at some old photos. I was so pretty before January of 5th grade (when my trich started). I was so photogenic, had amazing hair, etc. After January, though, the hair went first. It started looking sloppy, unkept, etc. Eventually I had little "bangs" going on. Next were the eyebrows.. they looked terrible! It looked like someone had taken a light brown thin-tip sharpie and did a freaky arch eyebrow. Then went my lashes. I had huge chunks missing. And in 6th grade, I didn't wear eyeliner.... In other words, I looked like a freak. It was awful. I'd like to thank those friends who stuck with me through this horrible period of my life.
That's all I feel like bringing up today. Maybe one day I'll post a picture of this period of time.
Byeee!

OwW! Sunburn!
Fuzzy.
Sorry I haven't written in so long! I have a TON to update on.
Last week (litterally, last saturday), I volunteered to help out at some little league end-of-season party. I got to work the cotton candy machine. Yea, I'm never eating cotton candy AGAIN. Too much cotton candy for a lifetime, haha.
On sunday, I got to go to an end-of-year picnic. The weather was cooler than normal, which was fine by me. It was fun. Lots of food. :)
For the past few days, my brother's friends and my sister's friends have been coming over. We've been playing Call Of Duty (COD), multiple video games, etc.
Yesterday, I went to the pool with my sister's friends. BAD IDEA. My hair stayed in place, and was not a problem. I shouldn't have gone... I didn't want to... but I did... and now I have the worst sunburn of my life. It still stings. It's not even EVEN. it's all splotchy, etc. ugh, I hate my life. My friends had told me I wasn't burning. I'm pretty pissed off at how burned I got. :(
I've been mostly pullfree, but I haven't calculated the days yet, so I'll try to keep you updated either tomorrow or the day after.
Bye!

3. Go to a camp I've been going to since forever (BEST.CAMP.EVER)
4. Watch fireworks :)
5. Go to 2 family reunions
6. Take a TON of pictures
7. Write my friends in another camp all summer
8. Go to the beach (in Delaware... I hate BP right now for the oil situation!)
9. Maybe have a sweet 16 birthday party (my sis' & my b-day is in early oct.)
10. GET A HAIRCUT :D :D :D I think I've earned it :)
Well, I gotta go eat, but I'll be sure to write either tonight or tomorrow :)
