| Soccer mom | | 2007-09-04 09:41:00 | | I'd had it with my (way too long) hair and craved a haircut, so Yasu and I went to Kobe (a beautiful city near Amagasaki) yesterday, to visit a beautyshop named 'Earth'. It was a very fancy salon and the people were uberfriendly. You can choose a stylist by their level of experience, and pay accordingly. There were 5 categories so I chose the middle one. He was going to dye my hair somewhat lighter and cut off my long hair into a cute and short hairdo... Even though they didn't use bleach, they were able to to make my hair lighter... a lot lighter! It's now a mix between blond and viking red! Still have to get used to it, I guess. The hairdresser I selected really did his best trying to create what I wanted on my head, but I suppose most of my wishes got lost in translation. After two and a half hours of, he was finished and hopefully asked me what I thought. I already knew that it was much longer than what I tried to make clear earlier, but it looked fine and I didn't have the h | | By: The Loulogue | | |
| | Soccer Mom In The Making | | 2007-07-20 12:03:13 | | Greg and I are going to need to purchase a new vehicle soon. I really want a soccer mom van, lol. We would be able to fit loads of groceries, pets and gear, the future kids, and more in a mini van. If we had avan rack, we could put bikes and other misc things up there. Greg wants an SUV, I suppose. Whatever, as long as it’s big! I feel so tiny in a car. | | By: Sophistishe.Org | | |
| | Total Commitment -- Or Why I'm NOT a "Soccer Mom" | | 2007-05-22 14:19:00 | | I have been amazed lately by how much every single activity that children are in requires "total commitment" from the family. Since most people have 1.7 kids (or 2.4) or whatever the average now is) it is reasonable (in the minds of the leaders of these activities) to ask the family to make a total commitment to that activity.However, I cannot make a total commitment to anything -- one child and that one activity cannot be our whole lives. Right now Boy Scouts and Competitive Soccer are the activities that we're finding are most insistent that we are at EVERYTHING. And, that just can't be. For example, on June 1st Rand Graduates from HIgh School. That weekend Tony has Tenderfoot Camp and Ricardo has a soccer tournament 90 miles from here. We can't do all three, something has to give.As you know, in the past 3 days Ricardo has played 5 soccer games and we have travelled 540 miles in these three days to get him there. He is VERY good and has a lot of potential and a true love f | | By: Never a Dull Moment | | |
