So, I am horribly (HORRIBLY) afraid of drowning. I am slowly learning how to swim, but am still scared of anything to do with moving water. Well, I went camping at the la jolla indian reservation this weekend and went tubing down all the rapids! Even the huge one I was deathly afraid of! I flipped over a few times, but survived! It felt so great to overcome the fear, and it was actually alot of fun. So much, I went down a few more times!! :D

So, I really want to shave my head. But I am a woman, and will get so much crap for it. I personally think it will help me along my path and help me better understand myself. Two of my friends have done it before, and said it is an invigorating and empowering experience. Anyway, I think I will be waiting a few years before hand, so I can grow out my hair really long, and mentally prepare and then I am planning to donate my hair to charity afterwards. Have any other females done this? What was your reaction to yourself after doing it? Did other people treat you different?
