I am still 18 days away from being in China and I am already feeling overly adventurous. Yes, just like Disney's Mulan, I have chopped off my hair. Before anyone who knows me completely freaks out I want to reasssure everyone that I do, in fact, still look like a girl. In effort to be low-maintenance and to avoid poor translations during overseas haircuts I decided to eliminate the problem all together. Though my hair is still by definition "long," I have enjoyed feeling like a new person these last few days. To some, that idea may seem ridiculous - or maybe it's just the idea of me trying to be low-maintenance. Either way, this new me is officially packed and ready to go. I fly to California in two days and from there two flights until Shanghai on September 3rd. Who knew that a haircut would make me confident, prepared enough to venture 7,500 miles without fear. Maybe Mulan really did have something there.
Love,
