In His Radiance

You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do men light a lamp and put it under a peck measure, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all in the house. Let your light so shine before men that they may see your moral excellence and your praiseworthy, noble, and good deeds and recognize and honor and praise and glorify your Father Who is in heaven. Matt5:14-16

Blue Boy

Saturday night youth group had a twist to it; To dress up as something beginning with B. I went as the personified Blue song that i'm sure most people will know "i'm blue da ba dee da ba dai...". I decided to go to my Nana's house on the saturday afternoon with my parents and then Rachel, who was on that side of town with her boyfriend, told me she would pick me up and take me to the shops to buy blue hair dye (by now i had been at my Nana's house for a little longer than planned) and so i had to wait longer for her to arrive as i didn't have a car to go shopping myself. When she arrived we raced to the nearest warehouse and started looking around for blue dye and blue facepaint. In the end i had to buy acrylic instead of facepaint and brazen blue hair dye. I drove back to my Nana's where mum and dad were waiting and we sped home. Quickly, i applied the dye in my hair and left it in for about 5-7 mins. i couldn't leave it in longer as time was running out. Washing out the dye i towel-dried my head and applied the acrylic on my face, neck and arms. I looked up to the mirror and my hair was purple, not brazen blue! Mark suggested that i paint my hair and i chucked a lot of the acrylic into my hair and turned it from it's hideous purple to dark blacky-blue. Then i was driven to youthgroup where i was only a few mins late. I got my hands on one of the photos of me and my blueness!


Only problem was, the purple didn't come out when the blue did. So i went and cut my hair (as i was planning to anyway)

So, now my hair is short, almost mullet looking, and purple. It's certainly interesting. I think i'll leave it be.
