I finally get to be myself, and still regret about putting the perm in my hair. I'm so crazy about lock.I have been counting down for my big dream and now I only have one week from this day on. I can't wait to see the reaction on my parents face and including mine. This is all my hair, and I know that I'll have to cut my hair sooner or later. I have about 4 inches of perm left. Mom says she will cut about an inch each month or so until all the perm is gone. We will do this so that my hair will still have some length after it is locked.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://localhost:1451/e0a91ed93fe83722040d1f6c4831b820/image676.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://localhost:1451/e0a91ed93fe83722040d1f6c4831b820/image581.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8501037624283601036-2136609481500049021?l=twinkyg.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://twinkyg.blogspot.com/feeds/2136609481500049021/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8501037624283601036&amp;postID=2136609481500049021' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8501037624283601036/posts/default/2136609481500049021'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8501037624283601036/posts/default/2136609481500049021'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://twinkyg.blogspot.com/2007/11/hey-its-me-twinky-and-i-just-wanted-to.html' title='my hair before locks'/><author><name>Twinky</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15310416238541208455</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp0.blogger.com/_D00VnN9FdJ0/R0kHVN3ViEI/AAAAAAAAABk/9WPEQagJ9Vo/s72-c/PB070103.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry></feed>
