What can I say?

I'm blonde.

And I'm not just talking about haircolor.

Oh no, my friend, blonde is not just color.

Blonde is a state of mind. Or state of being in some cases.

You must admit that you've known someone who has acted in the blonde manner whose hair was of another color. Maybe you're even guilty of it your self.

I just happen to be *lucky* enough to hair my hair match my personality. Blonde.

And I use it. As an excuse for misunderstandings-state of mind. To hide the gray's-haircolor. To excuse my silly or foolish behavior-state of mind. To summon cute boys-hahaha.

Forest says it's all because I just don't pay attention. When he says this, I smile, flip my hair, and get away with it.

Being blonde goes along well with my phonebooth mentality.

But let me tell you about my latest blonde-scapade.

It's almost time for classes to start. I'll be in the second half of my junior year! I'm very excited about this! So, I go online to check on my status and make sure financial aid was working right. Course, I've been checking this at least once a day everyday since we got out of classes for the Christmas break. About a month. So, they finally have the information posted. It's time, it's time, I get to see how much money I'm getting back this semester after all tuition has been paid! (Not really concerned with my status, I know where I stand.) So I pull up all the information, and I'm furious!

Not only am I not getting back what I thought I would be, my tuition has gone up!! What is wrong with this stupid school?!!

I start calling, scheduling appointments, emailing the financial aid department! Someone had better answer me! Who decided that they could raise my tuition without consulting me?! (Still furious, as you can see.) This is a big honking deal! I took out a flippin' student loan to ensure that I would get enough money back to pay for books, and help with gas! This isn't fair.

Then, while I was patiently waiting to kick some butt, a thought occurred to me. It started slowly, I ignored it because it made me feel so inept, and then I voiced this thought.

"Maybe you're tuition is higher because you're taking more classes this semester."

And dang if that wasn't true.

So I started make phone calls, cancelling appointments, sending out emails, using my best excuse.

"Oops! I'm blonde! What can I say?"
