Tell the Truth Thursday! 2 for 1!

Yup you read right... 
Today you get two confessions for the price of one!
The first is obvious if you scroll down just a little and see the videos that are part of this post!

I AM A GLEEK!

The second isn't quite as obvious....

If you watch Glee you will know that this weeks episode was called "Born this Way" and of course they sang the new Lady Gaga song... and I actually like their version better than GAGA's...

And it was all about the kids in the Glee Club accepting who they are and what they are... 
So each had to make a shirt with a word or phrase that tells something they are ashamed of or something they can't change...

They put things like "Butt Chin", "Nose" or "OCD" and it got me thinking what would I put on "my" shirt?

There are a few things that popped into my mind...
but the one that stuck out was 

CURLY HAIR!

Yup I have naturally curly hair and as nice as it is, I hated it for a long, long, long time! And even now some days I would tear it all out if I thought that it would grow back straight. When I was younger I was called so many names and made fun of so much because of my hair... so much that I would do anything to straighten it... I can't count the burns I got from our iron, or from any of the countless hair appliances I have owned.

Sounds silly right or at least I think it sounds silly. I mean really when does hair make the lady? 

Yes I have learned to embrace it, well deal with it at least but at many times even now it's just easier to forget about it and pretend that it doesn't matter, even if it does...
And most days it does, I do care how I look (show me a woman who says she doesn't and you've just showed me a liar)  but some days its just not worth the hassle of caring so much that I have to fuss and deal with it. 

So truth is that I have curly hair and it bothers me sometimes and it is a pain in the butt sometimes but it was how I was born and it makes me... well me...  

So what would your shirt say? Leave it in comments... I'd love to know!




And because I am a true GLEEK I have to add my favorite song from this weeks episode...


Somewhere only we know- as sung by the Warblers...
