You go nena!
Currently feeling not so good about being a natural. My hair reacts VERY negatively to cornrows, pins, hairties, and anything else that attempts to tame it. I refuse to wear a fro everyday all day.

High school seems like it would be so much more fun if you have a crew. People to go out and eat with and just go on adventures with. Dang I wish I had a crew.
