26. Get a brave and unexpected new haircut (or color). - DONE!
While it ended up not being very unexpected, this was very brave thing for me.
Remember this post? Last weekend I followed through with my Locks of Love donation. My stylist, Dana, was super supportive and talked me through the whole thing. She knew I was attached. First we just needed to get the 10 inches cut off and then we could...

I treated myself to these birthday flowers from a street vendor in NYC. An hour later we were on the bus heading home to Baltimore.

Viv-cat was not happy, but she desperately needed a good scrub.

You know it's summertime when it stays light out long enough to go for a ...

hair today, gone tomorrow

5. Make a once a month donation to an organization that could use it - DONE!
So the last time I posted about this, I didn't mention June. Because something was in the hopper for June that I am so nervous about, that I didn't even want to post and ACKNOWLEDGE it. And it's so silly, considering I rappelled over the edge of that dang building. SCARDY CAT.
I have no idea why, but I have this ridiculous attachment...

Participate in Solstice in the Square on my 30th Birthday - DONE!
So, I've been practicing yoga off and on since college, but I never really considered myself a die hard, because I was mostly taking "gym yoga" classes, not actually going to a studio. About three months ago I started taking Bikram Yoga classes, inspired by this project to try something new and step out of the box.
However, I was really concerned that...

RIP, my twenties
IN MEMORIUM.
Here lies Nasrene's youth. I hearby retire way-too-short jean skirts, shorts or sweatpants with writing across the butt, and any alcoholic beverage with the word "Pucker" in it's title. I entrust all neon colored nailpolishes to my darling daughter, Sadira, and I pass on the ability to "show up at work so hungover that it's questionable whether or not I'm still drunk" to my sister Neda (though I don't recommend...
the big easy...nola part one
10. Sacrifice a weekend away for a good cause. - DONE!
There's a part of me that will always love New Orleans. It's easy to love. It's a mostly blue collar city, much like Baltimore, with a strong French influence, an insane amount of diversity, culture, and deep appreciation of the arts, especially music.
And the food! Lord have mercy, don't get me started on the food!
It's obviously also a city that...
