Oooooo! It seems, DOGOnews had a new makeover! Lovin' it! Anyway, I got a new haircut (my mom cut it)! Before, my hair was SUPER long (it went a bit past my tailbone) and now it's at my rib cage! It is SO MUCH lighter and so much more convenient! ...... I sound like a retailer in an add *hide's face in a pillow from embarrassment*. That's all! Bye for now!
