So I should probably write a little history on him (should I rename him?) He goes to Jew camp. I met him in Tzofim, so I guess we were...14. We had made friends with Miriam, who he dated first session, but he broke up with her (I kid you not) because he wanted to spend more time with his guitar. I mean don't get me wrong, this kids a guitar genius, but really? So he used to wear a red bandanna in his hair. Everyday.
As we got older, his hair got longer. He's such an oxymoron. He had long hair, went to LaGuirdia (audition for guitar and art, got in for art, even though he can't draw), lived in the city, went to hippie Jew arts camp, and is our one republican. Like doesn't believe in global warming. He has hair down to his elbows and is mad skinny, so he looks like a girl from the back.
Also, he looks real sketchy. Like in Israel all the time he would get pulled to the side for security checks. And when we did Machon (CIT) interviews, they pulled him aside to tell him that this wasn't all fun and games. He's not any better or worse behaved then the rest of us (on second thought, probably better).
But now his hair is normal looking. and I feel like his long hair was a part of what made him different. Like me, I have long hair because I like that it's different. No matter how many people cut all their hair off or what's in or out of style, I have my long hair. But now he chopped off a good chunk of my adolecences.
It's silly, and selfish, but I want his long hair back.
