Wash-Day For Naturals

Using gifs, because why not?

Wash-Day For Naturals
Joey Rosado

Since going natural, my hair is healthier than ever. It's longer than ever, thicker than ever — I love it. But it's not as easy to maintain, nor do words describe the process thoroughly enough. So let me show you using gifs and still images.

Let's take wash day for example. Yes, wash DAY. It'll normally take you between three to six hours to do it, which leaves you exhausted.

Wash day consists of:

1.

2.

(30 minutes to an hour)

3.

4. Get your little products...


Nah it's more like this...

5. Dry your hair...


Under regular circumstances, you wouldn't blow dry it. So imagine it being like this, except with a soft t-shirt.

6. Start the long, tedious process that is your hairstyle :

Try to get out that last little bit of your favorite product...


Venture into a few different hairstyle settings...



Sleep...


and end up with these...



or these...


With which, you get extremely frustrated and your day feels like it's on a continuous downward spiral.


Then the breakdown happens while your friend tells you it's not that bad...


But these things can always be easily fixed. You'll learn to huff and puff it out.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
