Hi, friends! I've not been here for almost one month for my work! So happy new year, guys! (Though it sounds late!)
As it's the time to say good-bye to old year and say hi to new year, I'm wondering if you will do something in this period to change your image. The common ways we do here is to change hair style, such as, hair-cut, hair-permed or hair-dyeing.
And I have my hair cut last week! I kept it long for 10 years. Haha...
So how about you? Please share your opinions or stories!

Hi Orangjuice,
Yes i did. I even made a discussion about my having a new look. "my husband made it possible for me..." that's the title. he surprised me with a treat for a hair pampering session. i had a new look during the holidays--new year. It's nice to experiment what will make you look great.

Hi, francisco, that sounds great! When I enter office with short hair, my co-works said, "hi, you had your hair cut? It looks nice!" Yes, it's so wonderful! And new image also remind me that I'm different from me yesterday, so I should change some of minds, the way I deal with things in, ..., like that!

Yes, i did, i cut my hair three weeks ago.
it looks not bad,in winter,short hair is rather easier to wash and the heard feel very light. the barber suggest me to make some clother for hair, he said that it looks nice and it is in fashion in those years. but after considered, i'm refused to do that,as making hair style always need to take nearly four or five hours. that's too long. good luck and have a nice day!

Yes, haier, you're right! Barbers always suggest everything, we have to insist on our opinions sometimes.

Each month, I have a haircut and my students would say to me, "Oh, you look much younger now with the hair cut." It is nice to hear them say so. hehehe. Now with the coming of the new year, I have prepared some new clothes to wear for our traditional Spring Festival as well as for my family. Happy New Year to you, friend.

Wow, william, I think you're a nice teacher.When I was a student, I always like my teachers pay attention on their images. - Don't pay complete attention, but don't pay no attention.
Haha...thanks for your sharing!

Yes, ybong, you're right! We cannot change our minds within one day. So it's hard to find many differences. But a new year means new hopes! Like you said, hope everyone here has good things in 2010!

Yes, Mimi, I see. We're still the same person, and everything around us seem the same. But anyway, it has already been in 2010. So hope you will find better and better in new years!

Yes, dhonitea, it's too late. But as a Chinese, it's not too late, because we aren't in 2010 completely, just a half. As per Chinese calendar, we're still in 2009.Sounds tricky? Anyway, enjoy mylot!

Hi, Orang Juice, happy new year, too (never mind, although it is too late). I don't change my image only because transition from old year to new year. But, new year always bring new hopes for me. Hope we are stay in good health, happiness and prosperity. It is standard for all persons, I think. Anyway, be happy with your new hair, friend. ha.ha.
Best wishes,
